Sasaki Japanese Restaurant

What you can expect here is similar to what you will find at most mid-range Japanese restaurants in Japan – of course with more variety. Typically in Japan restaurants specialize in particular dishes: sushi, noodles, tempura, katsu. What you will not find at Sasaki is fusion Japanese (fied nigiri, lamb, or duck anything).

The sushi chef, Toda-san, will prepare American style rolls like California rolls, however I understand he does not like to do so. In any case, you would do better to stick in sashimi, futomai, or chirashi.

One of the best deals is the broiled fish of the day (Sasaki Lunch) – for $7.95 The fish is usually a broiled salted mackerel or salmon. It comes with rice, salad, soup, and vegetables. The curry katsu and chicken teriyaki are also excellent deals.
