This IS the Real Deal for Sushi on the West Side of Cleveland! We come every year from our Home in Las Vegas, where there is an EXCESS of Sushi Restaurants, and get our pallet re-aligned at Sakana! Their Food is THE BEST Sushi anywhere! Crista and her Staff were excellent servers and were attentive without being overbearing. I'm hoping to find time before we go back home to stop in again! Thanks Crista and EVERYONE at Sakana!

We did not know it was 1/2 price sushi night when we made the reservation for a birthday celebration. The hostess was efficient, the service was amazing, the calamari appetizer was uniquely delicious, the sushi was well done and plated like it was for a photo shoot and the entire night was capped off with a complimentary cheesecake for the birthday celebration!

We tried getting the spring rolls but they didn't have them. We ordered the Mongolian Beef and the Sezchuan Shrimp, both were very good.
Sakana Sushi Bar - Rocky RiverResponded on May 22, 2022Joe, Thank you for taking the time to review us, and for recommending us to others! Unfortunately, our restaurant is one of many, worldwide, that is experiencing product shortages from our distributors. We have had to come to terms with this now as "the new norm". We do have quite a few other tasty vegetarian/vegan options that I hope you were able to enjoy. I am glad to see that your entrees were agreeable. We look forward to serving you again soon.

Goodish sushi in an environment that feels more like an Applebees than an authentic sushi spot. Not bad in a pinch but we’ll stick to Ginko, Sasa or Paralax if we want quality sushi in NE Ohio
Sakana Sushi Bar - Rocky RiverResponded on April 21, 2022Cleohbjj, I am sorry to see that we did not merit a 5 star review. We are not going for an "authentic sushi restaurant" look, so I appreciate that feedback. We are an asian fusion restaurant with elevated service, so we tend to identify as such. Ginko, Sasa and Paralax are all amazing, unique restaurants that deserve to be recognized for their individuality and quality food and service--they are lucky to have your patronage. Thank you for supporting local. Christen Holden, General Manager

Cool place. Sushi was good (the Sakana Sampler app was really good). The General Tso's lacked spice and so did other things on the menu that were labeled "hot/spicy." Overall good experience.

Our rating was bases on the service we received. The food was good. Ambiance and overall experience was good. Being used to great service when we dine there; this evening the service just fell short. No refills on our drink, I had to give my husband my water. The server passed us several times without even checking on us. Another server had to get us our to go boxes. We may not go back for awhile.
