Reviews for Sake Sushi in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

?I arrived here for lunch on a Thursday around 1pm. I asked for a to go menu and but didn?t have any and told me to go on their... site. The site was down and all I found were menu photos from customers back in April 2022. I decided to go with the 3 itemlunch special with beef teriyaki, crunch roll, and sashimi combo. It also comes with rice, salad, and miso soup for $18.00. WhenI got rung up, it was $21 with tax, which I realized was a price increase from the April menu (okay, we?ve had record inflationthe last 6 months, so it?s all good). The food: 1. Beef teriyaki: I grew up in Seattle which has a pretty high bar for juicy andtasty teriyaki. I have yet to find anything in Cali that?s close. The sauce had a lot of potential but the beef itself was dryand tasteless. 2. Salad and miso soup: they were both pretty good. 3. Sashimi: This came with 3pc salmon and 3pc tuna. Both werepretty dry. Very disappointing since they charge an extra $2.50 for sashimi ?upgrade?. I?ve had better sashimi in beltrestaurants and definitely better in sit down restaurants. 4. Crunch roll: the roll itself (rice, crab meat) were fine. Thecrunch was stale and not crunchy. Also disappointing. Should have stuck with Cali as the crunch ruined the taste forme. Overall, it?s a toss up between 2.5 and 3* for me. They should update the website or have to go printed menus in themeanwhile. The sushi quality is definitely lacking - not sure if it?s due to being opened to air or because it?s old, but that?smy main deterrent from coming back. Read more

It's a really great sushi restaurant albeit small but they also had the Angels on TV so can't complain

Really need to work on their staffing. 2 out of every 3 times when I call, they don't answer or say they can't support take-out... orders. Food is good, but doesn't do much good if I can't do take out and no one in my family wants to dine out. I wish therewere some other decent sushi in the area. Read more

Small shop in the plaza :) super glad I found them. The owners and staff are super accommodating and attentive. The food was... delicious and sushi so fresh. Read more

Used to give much bigger portions, but new management or something since portions are much smaller. The rolls are very skinny... and even the teriyaki bowls are smaller and don't have as much meat as before. Food tastes good still. Read more

This is my all time favorite Sushi restaurant. The quality of the sushi is always excellent. It can get really busy, which means... you wait a little longer for items to come out, but they stagger the rolls so you're never without something to eat. Read more
