Sakana is a great spot: sushi is very fresh and reasonably priced. The ambience is great, music is good and not loud or distracting, and the service is consistent. If there was one thing I'd like to see it would be a larger selection of cocktails.

Rolls are pretty good but overpriced. However, they had two for one deal that made it worth it. Cocktails and ambience are nice. Table service was kind of slow even though it was empty. Food came out fast though.

Salmon bento box was excellent/chicken was not grilled properly and very hard and chewy Very friendly service Great portion sizes Don’t go expecting the greatest sushi in the world. But it’s good. Inside seating is very dark for some reason and not energetic

We thought that shrimp wontons appetizer should have had twice the portion (there were 3) for the price, but they were delicious and the soft shell crab and guacamole appetizer was generous. The sushi rolls were beautiful, the fish was fresh and delicious, prices were a little high but expected for the neighborhood, and the service was excellent.
