" A very disappointing experience. The sushi was bland, lacking the authentic flavor I crave. Although the service left much to be desired, the cleanliness of the space was up to standard. Overall, I won’t be coming back any time soon unless I hear improvements are made. " (*Curated Review*)

" Recently, I had a fantastic experience at Sakana! I ordered the spicy garlic edamame, which turned out to be a delightful surprise—so flavorful and fresh. Then, I moved on to the lemon flush roll, which boasted a delightful blend of ingredients. The entire dining experience felt authentic, and the wait staff was friendly and attentive without being overwhelming. Sakana will be my go-to sushi spot from now on. Highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakana has quickly become one of my favorite places for sushi in town! I particularly enjoyed the bento boxes, which come with generous portions of perfectly cooked rice, delicious tempura, and several sushi options. The shrimp tempura was crispy without being greasy. The ambiance is welcoming and family-friendly, making it a great choice for casual dining. I also appreciated how the staff checked on us regularly, ensuring we had what we needed. Overall, I highly recommend paying this place a visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sampling a range of items from the menu at Sakana was a treat! The miso soup was piping hot and comforting, while the sushi rolls were packed with flavor. It definitely stood out for freshness. I did think, however, that the staff could benefit from a little more training on menu knowledge. Overall, I left happy and would recommend it for a casual sushi outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" I frequently take my family to Sakana, and it has never disappointed! The kids love the salmon plate, and I appreciate how easy it is to please everyone with their diverse menu. The quality of food is always high, and the staff always make us feel welcomed. It's clean, spacious, and a lovely place to enjoy an evening. Will come back time and again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful date night at Sakana! The atmosphere was perfect, not too dim, not too bright. The service was on point, prompt, and attentive. We indulged in a selection of their original rolls, and the flavors blended beautifully. I did notice that portions were generous, just right for sharing. All in all, highly recommend for a fun night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food didn't quite meet my expectations. I tried the dynamite roll, but it had an unusual amount of onion, which was unexpected. I appreciate the effort in trying new things, but it overshadowed the other flavors. The vibe was okay, and the service was friendly, though. I think I might stick to the basics next time, like the classic sushi rolls. " (*Curated Review*)
