Sake Cafe

Great food in or out! Have been getting takeout for the most part for the last year! Hard times for us all! They stay pretty busy during lunch and dinner times! That’s how you know they are great! Also recently went to dine in!! Tried new sushi rolls! They were delicious!!! Don’t just take my word for it! You should try for yourself!

First time here. This place is amazing! Prices are great! We had the boat, which had sashimi, rainbow rolls, California rolls, thick tuna, salmon, smoked salmon, peppered tuna and white fish sashimi. Lindsey was our server and she was wonderful. She described different roles. Shared silly jokes. She checked on us regularly to make sure everything was great! We will definitely be back!!!!

We got there before the lunch rush & were seated quickly. Server was nice, but not attentive. The good: The Osumashi soup was heavenly. Warm & seasoning was perfect. Goyza was cooked excellent, but no dipping sauce was provided. California rolls was the only edible sushi. Good flavor. The bad: beef teriyaki bento box. I thought the fruit was pineapple, but it tasted like a sweet mushed blob. Wasn’t even yellow anymore. More of a pale white. Does pineapple even come in that color? The teriyaki was COLD. In fact the plate was cold. So odd. The rice was room temperature & it seemed like a bottle of soy sauce was dumped on it. Not a fan of the seaweed salad. The other 2 sushi rolls were, just not yummy. We have been going to Sake for 4 years and that was the absolute worst visit. Nope. Not heading back.

Sake Cafe! 5 out of 5! What a lovely pearl awash in the sea of mediocre eating establishments in Lufkin. Prices are more than reasonable for the fresh and tasty dishes they craft. The serving sizes are really generous. Although everyone was friendly and courteous, our server Tatum took excellent care of us, often anticipating our needs. Tatum is a shining star! Thanks all!

Came in and requested sushi bar and was accommodated right away. Service was great and chefs at bar was very helpful. Waitress was very pleasant and attentive. So to the food...I ordered the Tiger Roll first and it was very fresh tasting and I received it pretty quick when all is said... after that I asked the chef for his opinion on a tempura roll...I don't know the name of it but it was fantabulous, had fried shrimp, rice, and crab with some other stuff. I will be back and hope if you're passing through or live around the area that you too will stop by and try for yourself...
