Sushi Saiko

A culinary gem! Delightful experience from start to finish. Impeccable sushi, each piece a masterpiece. The sake selection complements the exquisite flavors. Sushi rice is a burst of umami perfection. Warm and friendly chefs enhance the overall enjoyment.

I visited Sushi Saiko in Jan 2023 and was extremely impressed with the entire experience beginning to end. I was the sole westerner in the joint and they ensured my time spent there would not be watered down in any way because of it. They were very helpful explaining the dishes through books and a translator device with each dish served. They really went above and beyond to create a positive customer experience. As for the food, it speaks for itself. Quite possibly the best omakase I've ever had and there's been many throughout the years. The chef, who is the star of the show, is charismatic and polite. He even stood outside with me in the snow while I waited for my taxi to arrive. Japanese service is on a different level. Many thanks for the entire crew for a fantastic dining experience. Would love to visit here again.

Delicious sushi spot with a warm atmosphere. Many of the fish were explained to be local catches and everything was fresh and tasty. Lots of care went into the presentation as well. I went as a solo diner and the chefs spoke a little English and took the time to translate or try to help me understand what I was eating, to the point of picking up their iPad and showing me photos or translations. Although I didn’t understand any of the chatter between the chefs and the other Japanese patrons, it was lively and cheerful and made for a pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended.
