The sushi and all other food items, appetizers, entrees, drinks, desserts, and the service all have been phenomenal! We enjoy coming here so much and they do a beautiful job with their fresh sushi! We love the weekday specials! The staff is so warm, friendly, kind, inviting, accommodating, timely, and provides exceptional dinning service! The restaurant ambience is also very relaxing and beautiful!
Even though it is currently takeout only, it is one of the best sushi places I have been to. They have a large variety of sushi and for decent prices as well. They also have a selection of other foods for those who dont care much for raw fish.
Restaurant was clean. Servers and manager were friendly and accommodating. Good sushi takes time to prepare properly. Service was good. Food was average. Nothing over the top as far as the sushi goes. We didnt order anything else, so we may have missed something that is stellar on their extensive menu.
This was a great place to relax, have a nice dine out, their sushi rolls selection are amazing and their udon noodles were great too!Service was pleasant, we were taken care of, not too overbearing where you had constant visit but just enough to make sure we were truly looked after. Recommended.
We have never had a bad meal here. Love their rolls too. The Sake Chef roll is my absolute favorite. One order of that, some gyoza, and some edamame and I am a happy camper. The Dragon roll is very good as well.
One of our favorite places for sushi. Great little place that cares about their customers. Never disappointed with the food. We drive 40 minutes to go here and have been doing that several years. Take the time to check them out.
Food is goodCozy, dimly lit, reasonably pricedBring a first date to the barIts what youd expect.
Outstanding vegetarian rolls! I love the avocado and the sweet potato tempura. I always order the three roll lunch special. Pick up or dine in, its always good. Dine in is better, though, you get free soup. Their hot tea is really good, too!
I ordered take out half an hour before they closed. They were so kind and even asked if I wanted water. Someone came in after me and didnt seem like she had a good day. Even though it was near closing, the waiter assure her that it is fine and provided service.
Sweet potato and avocado role, I like this place , good service , will go again...
Do NOT order online. We ordered and it said 45 minute wait. We showed up to pick up and they said they just got the order and it would be 45 more minutes. They did nothing to make it right. VERY disappointing. The lady just continued to say over and over call next time.
Worst pad thai I’ve ever had. Mushy noodles served in a sauce that tasted like bbq mixed w sweet and sour sauce. Very disappointed. Maybe their Japanese food is much better, but I’m unlikely to go back based on my one and only meal.
I cant say anything bad about this place its been my go too for 6 years when I want great food and for a decent price.
Everything we had was fresh and delicious
I picked up carry out. Service was good and so was the sushi roll we ordered. We ordered vegetarian pad thai and it was absolutely awful, as in we took a few bites and threw it away. We have lived all over the country, traveled all over the country & we have eaten Thai food in probably 30+ restaurants. Something was very very wrong with this pad thai. It had a gross musty smell and a strange almost ketchup taste to the sauce. The sauce was redder than normal as well. I kind of wonder if they ran out of the ingredients and tried to create a sauce on hand, or if their sauce went bad? It truly tasted like ketchup, old gym socks and a hint of something else mixed together. It had maybe 5 total pieces of broccoli in it, so you can forget about enjoying any kind of vegetables in the vegetable pad thai. Honestly it was the worst pad thai Ive ever tasted in my life. Im really hoping I dont get sick from eating it. We ate some fantastic pad thai at a place on Elmwood Ave in the city. If you go here, just stick to sushi. If you want Thai go to the restaurant in Elmwood Village (by far the best tasting place in Buffalo).
Best sushi ive had in years, local and anywhere stateside. The crew and chefs are amazing and the food is underpriced. This place is a gem and everyone should give it a go. Im there almost daily.
This place is awesome!!! I eat sushi all the time all over the country and this takes the cake! Tempura shrimp and gelato in dough are awesome! Well worth the money. service is great and very clean!
Artificial crab sticks, and Cold EGGS are NOT SASHIMI.Period.I haver traveled over seas, visited Busan, and had the freshest fish still quivering.I eat raw fish like a Kodiak Bear.. and that was not acceptable.
I love this place! Ive been multiple times and am never disappointed. Love the waitress, and the food is so good.
Great sushi and great people! I like everything my Ma is goin Dancing Tuna every time...
Friendly staff and good food, variety of both sushi and entrees. I recommend the Paradise signature roll for a sweet and wholesome taste.
Very good Japanese food I got the spicy seafood soup and the spider man role both were amazing and awesome service definitely going back and I would suggest to anyone if theyre looking for a good meal and a friendly atmosphere
Fantastic selection of asian food. Had the sushi pizza and Malaysian coconut fried rice. Both were fantastic as always
Been a customer for over a decade. Ordered through GrubHub and order is missing half of food. GrubHub says you packed all and are arguing the situation, shame on you. You lost a ten year customer.
Really good sushi and great customer service!!
Went for dinner with some friends, service was great. All the food tasted really good. Will be back for more
Great food, ambience, and service with reasonable prices for sushi. This has long been our default choice for going out.
The waitress explained every single thing on the menu because we asked food is great. Atmosphere is awesome would go there again
Well prepared Japanese cuisine, good service.Easy take out
The prices are fair here for what you get, the atmosphere is very nice. The only thing is that the food didnt have much flavor.
Great service, great sushi. Not super pleased with my entree but it wasnt bad
I love the food and good food
Let me start by saying that my wife and I were huge fans of this establishment ... notice i said were the food was excellent and the staff were always gracious friendly and professional and remembered us and our children from our previous visits ... the service was always top notch ... however about four months ago there was a change in management or maybe ownership and I have become disenchanted with this establishment ... sometime in August my wife and I decided to visit Sake for dinner my wife went in before me we were asked if we were together in an extremely rude manner (I am white my wife is black) we were made to feel unwelcome and were turned off from ever eating here again ... it is sad because it was best one of our favorite spots ... hope the old manager comes back
Love the sushi and sake and Jenny is so sweet. Love it there
Foods ok. Ok atmosphere and staff. Nothing special though the table hibachi is cool with the cooking stone.
Very good food. Obviously cook is a decent chef. Prices are a tad over
Love to eat here. The rolls are great and the employees are very friendly and helpful.
Sake has excellent food, great service and very reasonable prices. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
I actually thought it was just a mediocre sushi cuisine but then I went in and was amazing at the service.

2022-05-29Tucked away between two stores on Transit, the restaurant is deceivingly large. We were sat at a really nice booth that could somewhat see into other booths, but gave us our own privacy at the same time with a clear view of the sushi bar.Immediately we were greeted by a really kind and wonderful lady who took care of us rather quickly, giving us our drinks and taking our orders.The miso soup that dame with the teriyaki chicken was absolutely delicious. The chicken had a nice solid crispy texture on the outside and was soft and juicy to bite into on the inside. Paired with the sauce it was a nice mix of flavors.The Donbatsu had the flavors of all the ingredients cooked into the rice and it definitely could be a warm comfort food favorite during the winter season, along with the rocky shrimp appetizer.Lastly, we had ordered 4 different rolls as they offer 1 special roll each day of the week at a discount and the day we went they had the Paradise roll at a reduced price. The rolls were all well wrapped and nothing really fell apart when we picked it up. The presentation was absolutely beautiful with each roll giving off their own unique flavors.This is a good place to grab a quick bite or enjoy a full meal!

2022-08-16This place is my favorite sushi restaurant in the entire area. Sadly, they will be closing soon due to issues with their lease. This is such a shame because the staff is BEYOND amazing, and their food is always consistently delicious! Their presentation is always top-notch. Ill really miss this place when it closes.

2020-01-04Very good and quiet place with delicious sticky fried rice. We had a wonderful time being there with family! The decor is charming and well done for a small space restaurant. The workers were polite, quick and helpful, even when we accidentally asked someone who wasnt our server for water.

2021-02-13This place must have really suffered from covid. I had a wonderful meal here three years ago. Pouring pop out of two liters at the tables as thats all they had no other choices... A small meal took two hours to get all of our order. They were out of everything... Our dumplings we ordered were undercooked. Friday on valentines day weekend we were the only party besides one or two others and i see why...hope they can turn it around. 😕 Never served our soup or salad and left our entree sitting across from us getting cold for 10 minutes. The food we did get wasnt that bad honestly.

2018-11-07Probably the best sushi in town. The food you ll eat there is fresh and you can see how they make it. Every single kind of roll Ive tried is delicious and throughoutly prepared. Service is excellent and very attentive. The place has a a few very cute little boots that make the eating very intimate and private.

2021-03-09Sake Café never disappoints. Jenny runs a great sushi bar and restaurant. Everything is always fresh and delicious. It’s my favorite place in Williamsville - E. Amherst. All of the signature sushi rolls are excellent and authentic. They always have a few special rolls too. Highly recommended!
