Sake Japanese Bistro And - Columbia

The service was the best. The sushi was ok. Ramen broth was mid. Ramen toppings were good, too much bamboo.

Service was very friendly. Food was good but not amazing. Seaweed salad had more lettuce than I would have liked, the sauce with the calamari was overly salty, no complaints about the sushi, but the special (fried chicken curry) was somewhat underwhelming with flavors and the noodles were overcooked/soggy.

I stumbled on this place by accident on Saturday June 1st, 2024 at around 7:00pm. I was looking to have a nice poke bowl for dinner. Poke bowls were not on their menu, but the sushi chef (non Japanese) said he could make one and it was way better than the place around the corner called A Little More Poke Bowl. I decided to trust them and try it out. Their Poke Bowls were awful! Hardly any tuna in the dish that was chopped so fine you could hardly find any in the bowl! In addition, for reason unknown, the sushi chef decided to put cold hard rice in the bowl! Another strike! Not sure what their rolls or sushi was like, but I'll never come back to Sake!

While passing through town, my girlfriend insisted on showing me her old college neighborhood. After some exploration, we discovered a remarkable restaurant and decided to dine there. The highlight of our meal was the double fried curry special, which was exceptional. My girlfriend opted for the volcano roll and the Mizzou roll, both of which were delightful. The bartender was not only attentive and friendly but also incredibly helpful. The two sushi chefs demonstrated remarkable expertise and delivered outstanding sushi. The kitchen staff, particularly the individual responsible for the curry, crafted an exquisite dish that exceeded our expectations. If a six-star rating were possible, this establishment would certainly deserve it. Additionally, the host and servers were exceptionally polite, cheerful, and attentive, contributing to an overall outstanding dining experience. This restaurant is highly recommended for anyone visiting the area. Visit was: 6/17/2024 around like 6:30-7:30

Awesome place. Drinks are fire. Should have got sushi. Our udon was mediocre. The special was way off from curry I'm used too. But the gents behind the counter made it all good by giving us some sushi samples that were amazing.
