" The best Japanese restaurant I've been to around here! I loved their special rolls, especially the Godzilla roll. It's a vibe here—the honeycomb booths add a fun twist. Overall, wonderful experience and can't wait to go back and explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" We came to Sakanaya for our anniversary dinner and were greeted with exceptional service. The honeycomb booth was a fun touch. We ordered a variety of rolls, and the fresh fish made each bite delicious. The drinks were also fantastic. It was a special evening, and I can't wait to return for another special occasion! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m a sushi lover, so I was thrilled to try Sakanaya. It did not disappoint! I was particularly impressed with the sashimi, which was fresh and well-prepared. The atmosphere is vibrant, and the honeycomb tables gave it a unique edge. Can't wait to come back and try more items from the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience at Sakanaya. While the sushi was fresh and tasty, some of the entrees fell flat. The chicken teriyaki wasn’t bad, but I’ve had better elsewhere. The atmosphere is cool and worth a visit, but I would recommend sticking to sushi and rolls here. " (*Curated Review*)

" I just wanted to thank the staff for being wonderful during my visit. They answered all my questions about the dishes and made great recommendations! I felt right at home in terms of ambiance and design. The matcha ice cream was delightful! A must-try! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing such rave reviews, I finally tried Sakanaya and loved it! The rolls were incredibly flavorful, and the service was attentive. The honeycomb booths gave off a very cool vibe, making my dining experience all the more enjoyable. I’ll be back for sure, preferably to try some different rolls next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great time here! The sushi is fresh and flavorful. I adored the udon noodles and the presentation of the food was fantastic. The only drawback was that I found the service a bit disorganized at times; we noticed a mix-up on our order. Still, we enjoyed our visit overall. " (*Curated Review*)
