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.
