Saku Hoboken

“the crispy rice and fried chicken bao buns were chefs kiss.”

Saku is attractive in a strange Two-Face kind of way, where one room is all pink sakura lightness and being, while the other room (where we were seated) is all dark, depressing velvet underground melancholy. The menu kind of reflects this struggle too, as it can't seem to decide if it wants to offer more traditional Japanese sushi-ya fare or something more innovative. As a result, we kind of wound up with the middling middle with our choice of 4 specialty rolls: 1) Saku: Probably the best and most traditional of our rolls with salmon and avocado inside, and ponzu, chives and crispy shallots

Absolutely loved this spot! The drinks were really good and the sushi was super fresh. Highly recommend the Drop It Like It’s Hot roll—incredible!!! The staff truly made the experience even better: our waiter was fun and attentive, and the manager came over to check in. Everyone was genuinely so kind. The atmosphere is adorable too—everything is pink inside with a really nice ambiance. Definitely a place I’d recommend and can’t wait to go back to with friends.

Such a fun ambiance for a girls dinner or cozy date night. Consider me a regular when I’m bac

I didn’t realize until I had two pieces and the server asked if we were feeling “relaxed” that there was anything in it. I, of course, started panicking and called my doctor. She said it was likely a small amount and not to worry. My only feedback would be a notation on the menu next to the ro
