" Honestly, my experience at Sakana was a mixed bag. While the sushi rolls tasted fresh, I found some dishes like the teriyaki beef to be less impressive. It was quite tough and lacked seasoning, which was disappointing. The service was prompt, and the atmosphere was nice, but I expected more from a place that received such praise for its sushi quality. I would consider returning, especially for the sashimi, which was spot on! " (*Curated Review*)

" Went with my family and had a lovely meal at Sakana last weekend. The setting was very inviting and the staff was friendly. I ordered several rolls and I must say that the shareable appetizers were a hit as well! Everything we tried was fresh and satisfying. While I enjoyed the event, I thought the rolls could come out a little faster. Worth a visit for families looking for a good place to enjoy sushi together! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited for my birthday and had a fantastic time at Sakana! Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was lively, and we truly enjoyed the sushi experience. I would highly recommend their selection of rolls; everything was fresh and beautifully presented. The highlights were definitely the Bacon-Wrapped Enoki and the Sexy Girl roll. I would return for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" My colleagues and I enjoyed a group dinner at Sakana, and it was a delightful experience. The all-you-can-eat option provides great value for what you pay. The variety offered was impressive, though pacing ourselves was necessary to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Some rolls could have used more flair, but overall, the flavors were satisfying. I would suggest they improve on the pickle for some authentic touches in their appetizers. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been coming to Sakana for over a year and it remains my favorite sushi place in town. Their all-you-can-eat option is excellent, offering a wide variety of rolls and appetizers. The fish is always fresh, which is something I prioritize when dining out. The ambiance is warm and inviting. However, I have noticed that during peak hours, the service can get a bit slower. Still, I think it’s worth it for the quality of food you receive. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sakana last month and I was really impressed! The place has a vibrant atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. The sushi was fresh and had unique twists that set it apart from other sushi places. The servers were quick to assist us and made sure we had everything we needed. I look forward to returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakana has the best AYCE (all-you-can-eat) sushi experience I've had in a long time! The variety and taste of the dishes were impressive, especially for a casual eatery. I do wish that there were more fusion-style rolls though because that’s what I enjoy the most. The service was friendly and the place had a great atmosphere! Overall, I’d recommend it for sure.
