" If you’re looking for authentic Japanese food, you’ll love Sakanaya! The negitoro and the tuna tartare blew me away. Each dish is thoughtfully prepared and well presented. It was more than just food—it was an experience. However, be aware that the service can be slow during peak hours, as I encountered a wait for my order. Nevertheless, the staff was pleasant and apologetic, which helped offset the frustration. Overall, I’m excited to go back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I explored Sakanaya based on the popular consensus of it being an authentic delicacy. Overall, I was not disappointed with the sushi rolls. Their low-key vibe made for a nice dining experience, and their willingness to accommodate dietary needs was appreciated. Expect to wait a little longer during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has an authentic feel, just like small restaurants in Japan! We enjoyed the beautiful presentation of the sushi although we wish the portions could be a bit larger. It was delightful to see the chefs at work preparing the dishes. Service was exemplary; our server was patient and knowledgeable about the menu, which made for a lovely experience. I’ll definitely return to explore more of their offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Slow service but worth the wait! The ramen was rich and filled with fresh ingredients. I loved the flavor of the broth, it was depth of flavor that you don't find everywhere. Their side dishes of pickled vegetables complemented the meal well. I’d recommend going when you have time to spare because the flavors truly make up for the delay. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food at Sakanaya is rich in flavor, I found the service to be rather disappointing. I ordered a ramen and waited a good 45 minutes, only to find it on the colder side. However, the flavors were well balanced and it still had the authentic taste I was looking for. I might give it another shot, hoping for a better experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful experience at Sakanaya with their variety of Japanese dishes. The seafood was extraordinarily fresh and flavorful. The staff was helpful but quite chaotic during our visit due to the number of diners. Despite the minor chaos, I would recommend the restaurant for anyone seeking Japanese flavors in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here on a weekday when it was less busy. The service was excellent, very attentive. I ordered the ramen and was impressed with how rich the broth was. It genuinely felt like I was having a meal in Japan. The portion size was substantial, leaving me satisfied but not uncomfortably full. If you appreciate authentic Japanese cuisine, this is the spot for you. " (*Curated Review*)
