Reviews for Sakana Sushi Bar and Lounge in Rocky River, OH

My husband and I had been interested in checking out Sakana for a while now and yesterday we finally had the chance to! Our... server Amanda was truly wonderful. She had an upbeat, positive attitude and was knowledgeable about the menu—you can tell thatshe truly enjoys working there! My husband and I decided to each start off with their 12oz Hot Sake , dumplings andoysters—all of which were phenomenal. We’re typically really big on Sashimi but with the cold weather we decided to trytheir entrees. I ordered the Pao Krapow and he tried the Duck, both of these were hands down some of the best meals we’ve hadfrom a Sushi Bar! We ended the meal with a slice of their pumpkin cheesecake and green tea ice cream. The only thing I wish isthat they had an espresso machine but Amanda was so kind as to accommodate us with cups of coffee! If you’re in the area, Iwould definitely recommend visiting and BONUS they do a happy hour menu all day on Sundays! Read more

In search for a New Sushi Bar we recommend Sakana Sushi Bar and Lounge! Sushi here was some of the best I've had in a while! We... had a few of the House Specialty Rolls including: Popcorn Lobster Roll, Yum Yum Roll, and Cabo Roll! There were SO MANY morerolls to choice from we will have to come back for more! Location on Rocky River was good and easy to get to. Restaurant itselfwas clean, and good size. There was a Bar to sit at and drink, eat and watch TV. Clean on the inside and staff wasnice. Recommend trying out Sakana one day! They also have half price Sushi on Tuesdays! Takeout or in house. Read more

I went here earlier for lunch with a friend and the sushi was so incredible! I saw that along with regular sushi, they had a... very extensive vegan menu and I was super excited to try both options. I went with the firecracker vegan roll and the hulk rollwith salmon. I can’t remember which sushi my friend had, but it was equally good. The drink menu is awesome and I can’tremember the name but it had strawberry boba. Our server was so nice and attentive! I really like the ambiance so I’m lookingforward to going at night next time so I can see all the pretty pink lights lol. great restaurant!! Read more

Sakana is by far our family’s favorite restaurant. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Food is delicious and my kids... love their chopstick “cheaters”. The flavor and dish choices are so authentic. If there was ever a time the dish was off, itwas quickly fixed with no problem. They have great happy hour options and times Read more

My partner and I have been here twice now and each experience was just so great! It’s the perfect place if you’re looking... for a laid-back environment, a huge menu where everything is delicious (amazing apps, an extensive vegan sushi & entree menu,great cocktails), and an incredibly kind staff. Seriously we just love this place! It’s the perfect step up from just a“regular night out.” We will be back again and again. Also a special thanks to our last waitress Hannah who even took thetime to show us how to correctly use chopsticks (as seen in photo)! Kidding, but she was absolutely lovely and attentive! Thankyou Hannah <3 This photo is of their Pad Thai and a vegan Spicy California Roll. Try the Lemongrass Dumplings for an appetizerand Kurosawa’s Mule - *chef’s kiss.* Read more

Their sushi is so good and the building is absolutely beautiful. I been there 3 times and their sushi is so fulfilling along... with their sashimi. I also love the chopstick helpers! I always had trouble holding chopsticks, so getting the chopstick helpersreally does help me, no other sushi place that I've been to has that. This place is not too far from where I live so it's easyto locate. It never disappoints. Will come here more often. My favorite dishes there are both the Dancing Tuna and Kamikazerolls. Read more

One of my favorite places for Sushi! We drive 30 minutes just to come here. Service is sometimes hit or miss but times are tough... for servers. The lunch specials are excellent and they have a great happy hour! I love the spicy tuna deluxe roll, but every oneI have had is great! Read more
