" Was really looking forward to Saito based on all the great reviews and wasn't disappointed! The tuna rib was a playful and flavorful dish. However, the rest of the meal didn’t quite pack the punch I was hoping for. I did appreciate the atmosphere and the effort put into making each dish look appealing. I'd probably return to try more dishes in the hopes of finding a new favorite. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dinner at Saito was absolutely mesmerizing! The dishes aside, the wait staff genuinely made the experience incredible with their knowledge of the menu and attentiveness. The freshness of all the ingredients truly stood out, and I could taste the love in every bite! Do make a reservation; it’s worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing izakaya experience! We had the tuna rib, which is a must-try, and everything tasted so fresh! The atmosphere is cozy and perfect for a night out with friends or family. I appreciated the friendliness of the service staff. Overall a great, authentic dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" With so many sushi places around, Saito truly stands out! I loved the authenticity and creativity in the dishes. The tuna rib and sashimi selection were top-notch and tasted incredibly fresh. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, which was a nice touch. I will definitely be returning with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Saito's food is an experience rather than just a meal. From the first bite of the sashimi to the last item on the dessert menu, every dish surprised and delighted us. Service was impeccable, with staff who truly care about your experience. I would recommend making reservations ahead — you don't want to miss out on their tuna rib, which was simply to die for! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to dining at Saito but found the experience to be just okay. While the food was decent, I didn't think it quite matched the hype. The crispy rice was nice, but the tuna rolls fell flat. The atmosphere was cozy, and service was friendly, but I expected more from the flavors. I might give it another chance but won't rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner at Saito with my family. We ordered the tuna rib and were thoroughly pleased, but I felt a couple of other dishes were just okay. Service was very attentive and the aesthetic of the restaurant is quite charming. I’d recommend it but might not return right away since there are so many other places to try. " (*Curated Review*)
