" Just okay, not what I expected at all. The sushi was good but not something that would wow me. The waitstaff was friendly, however, at times felt overwhelmed. The portions were also smaller than I anticipated for the price. " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, this place exceeded my expectations! The sushi was not only fresh but presented like a piece of art. The service was remarkable, with our server being very knowledgeable about the menu. The decor was beautiful as well, giving it an upscale yet warm vibe. Definitely coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible! We celebrated my birthday here, and it was magnificent. I ordered lamb pops and the Nirvana sushi, and they were delightful. The staff made us feel special, bringing us complimentary drinks to toast. A must-visit for anyone in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Saku is definitely worth a visit! The sushi fresh, and the service was superb. The atmosphere was lively without being overwhelming. A modern take on a traditional style really worked well. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the sushi was good, the prices were a bit steep for what we received. The ambiance was nice, but it felt like a place that was still figuring itself out. Overall, an enjoyable evening, but room for growth. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious sushi with quality ingredients. The miso soup was a delight too! The atmosphere is great for a night out with friends. I do think the prices are a bit high, but the experience was overall enjoyable. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my meal, but I didn't feel it had the authenticity that I was hoping for. The service was friendly, and the environment was comfortable, but I'd prefer a more traditional experience. " (*Curated Review*)
