Not worth your money!!! RIP OFF!!! My wife & I have been there 4 times since they opened. When they first opened, it was 5 star & worth every cent. Each time afterwards has progressively got worse & worse. Bad presentations & rip off portions. They call their dinners "Teppanyaki". LMAO. You are paying Hibachi price but no show or quality. Yesterday we ordered the Shrimp & Scallops. Scallops came on our plate in shredded up pieces as if the cook didnt know what he was doing. Shrimp was hard & like rubber. When we advised them of our concern & they acted like they didnt even care. The staff seemed like they cared more about watching the tvs than assisting the guests. Oh did I mention the horrible loud Disco Tech music??? What about the large amount of flys & fruit flys circling our food/table? Very sad but I warn those interested to not get tricked into spending.... NO WASTING your money here. They no longer care about their guests nor food & it shows.

We had really bad service. The waiter didnt come back once to fill out waters. When we said thank you he would just walk away. He also didnt know the menu at all so we had to explain and point to everything that we wanted. The sushi wasnt that great. We got a spicy yellowtail roll that was maybe a 2 out if 5 on the spicy scale. My eel roll just tasted bland. We also got a deluxe sashimi platter and the waiter forgot the rice. We asked him for 2 bowls instead he brought one and then we had to wait 15 minutes until he came back to get the other one. Atmosphere was good and we went around 2 and no one else was here. Kind of disappointing for two people who really love sushi. Side note: host was outside smoking when we first got there and then realized we were there so he threw his cigarette, sat us, and then went right back outside to smoke.

Sake is great. I got the kani salad and the sake monster roll, both were awesome (and Im picky about my kani salad). Ive been here once before and it was great that time, too. We were a larger group and ordered way more food, and it was all good, actually though. That was on one of the days that they have salsa dancing after a certain time of night, which was super weird and awesome. They push tables out of the way, have a DJ, and salsa coaches who teach everyone how to dance. Its the weirdest thing in a sushi place (I think it used to be latin food in the same location, and they just kept the salsa tradition). Anyway, the food is good, the drinks are good, (There was a sign up tonight advertising ladies night on Fridays). Prices were good for sushi standards; you get what you pay for.

My boyfriend and I were there last night and as soon as I walked in I got a bad feeling...the hostess was new and didnt really understand English...I think the one waiter was a teenager...the miso soup tastes like leftover shrimp water...and they brought us the wrong sushi...I was so pissed off I just walked out. Usually its very good! Hopefully they can redeem themselves.

Advertised happy hour special thats front and center on the website was a hassle to get them to honor. First dish was not prepared as menu stated... Took 45 min for replacement, which made it a miserable experience. Expensive food for a very "cheap" place. They dont even have their own dishes! Restaurant is named Sake but dishes say Saga. Like they bought them used

I got the Tampanyaki chicken, and everything included had a weird taste--the chicken, vegetables, and rice. I ended up getting sick from it before even leaving the restaurant. And our server wasnt very attentive. My husband also had a bug in his Sprite and our table was very close to the people around us. I will NOT be returning.

Sooo good!!! Ever since we moved to Pittsburgh we have been trying to find a great sushi place and after a few different places we finally found it here! The fish taste fresh the atmosphere was beautiful and the prices were very fair.. love it here!!

Just went there tonight, it was terrible, we left before our food came out because it was 45 min before our appetizer even came out, and they ran out of soup and salad that came with our meal at 8pm!!! The service is horrible DO NOT GO THERE!

Had a reservation for Valentines Day and the Hostess sat another couple in place of us. We decided to sit at the sushi bar at that point to eliminate the new wait time she had told us. Unorganized and slow service with quality food/sushi.

The sushi was fine however the service was poor. We never had our glasses refilled and had to move dishes to the other table to be cleared. Warmer and more professional service would make me inclined to come back

The place opened a few months ago and sushi was decent initially. I stopped by recently with the family for lunch and I wish I hadnt. The fish was borderline rancid and service was abismal.

Large selection of Asian cuisine, a decent bar. Not many complaints about food. The negative was the long wait for service, and then long wait for food, on what seemed a slow night.

I wouldnt order sushi from this place.. Every time Ive had it delivered the sushi always has a weird scent to it.. The hibachi menu is pretty good though.

This place is as good as Nakama at a fraction of the cost. Highly recommend the triple sushi.

Decent sushi place. Fried rice with scallop a little bit salty but overall was OK.

The sushi is very good and you cannot beat their Monday - Thursday specials.
