It’s an excellent sushi spot in South Tampa. They have creative chef creations along with all the classics. The barbecue squid appetizer was unique and tasty. The sushi were large pieces with lots of flavor. They have a nice wine and saki selection. They have friendly and personable service. If you are a sushi fan, you won’t be disappointed.

I think we might have found our new sushi restaurant. Friendly staff, the food was great full of flavor. We will be back for sure.

Upon first getting there we were told it would be about a 10 minute wait. 25 minutes later we noticed others being seated after we arrived. After speaking to the hostess we were told that they had called our names several times and they hadn’t. We were sitting 6 feet away at the bar. Finally we were given a spot at the sushi bar which made up for the inconvenience of being forgotten. The server was attentive, friendly, and helpful. The philly cheese steak egg rolls were delicious and the sushi was the best we have had since we moved to Florida.

Excellent sushi. I feel like no other sushi compares to Sakana. I would only say that service can kinda be slow and it can sometimes be difficult to get a table during the weekend so make a reservation if you can. I would still give this 5 stars.

Edamame w sea salt and sesame oil added was a nice touch. Shrimp fried rice was good but I would have loved it if the wok was scorched to create more of a burnt taste. Jasmine tea was good. Spicy tuna with avocado minus the mango was spot on. But the icing on the experience was Devan?, our server, he was spot on. Will be back again. Good job Sakana!

This is the second time we’ve come to eat at this restaurant. The vibe is the nice. The food tastes great but we were again faced with slow service. It seems that they do online orders and those take priority over seated guests. I would really like to see that change as they have great chefs and selection of food. Just keep in mind if you go in for dinner it will take a while.

We ate here for the first time this weekend. The food was excellent especially the cheese wonton. My red dragon roll was superior and the duck egg rolls.. EXCELLENT. Our server was on top of his game and did a very good job as well.

By far the best sushi in S Tampa. I personally love Jen the bartender as she’s always been very accommodating. Jen honestly brings a level of service that is hard to find at any restaurant/bar environment. FYI if she’s working then that’s when I’ll go. Thanks Jen for the level of service you have provided in the past and your on going effort to always provide a balanced bar experience to the customers you support.

Great sushi! We ordered take out and it was quick and delicious. We will definitely be back and dine in the next time we are in Tampa. (sorry no pictures, we are it too fast!) 😉
