Sake Hana

This place is decent for the area, and the atmosphere is good. I have eaten sushi, Chinese and Thai here and all of it was good. We will be back.

My family and I have eaten here twice and love the super tasty sushi and sashimi. The décor is trendy and modern and they have great miso soup and edamame. Our server the first visit was very friendly and knowledgable but on the second visit our waiter just seemed to be going through the motions. The appetizers are pretty so-​so. As good as the sushi is, about 15 hours after both our meals one person (not the same one each time thankfully) got sick and nauseous after we ate here. Seeing that this happened after both visits I can’t see going back a third time. And when I mentioned this to a friend who lives locally, she told me that the restaurant is under new ownership and she had five friends who got sick after eating there in recent months.

This place is definitely a gem snuggled in a Plaza and one of the best Sushi spot’s that I’ve had ever been to. Do not let that intimidate you though! Their sushi is quite superb and large in bite size compared to other places. Very fulfilling. The décor is very modern, contemporary, and trendy. Staff and service are never a disappointment. My experience here has always been great.

Wow!!! This place does not disappoint!
My friend and I were looking for some yummy sushi after visiting VaLa vineyards and we stumbled on this gem.
At first it looked a little shady, the front is VERY unassuming, but as you walk in it looks like a place in the city! Super cute and sheik!
The food was friggin EXCELLENT!!!
The soup was delicious, the veggie Gyoza was perfect and the rolls were put of this world!!!
I had the avocado roll and the (jeez, I forget the name of it) but it was the roll with shrimp tempura and steak (filet) on top.
Outstanding! The prices are right and I was impressed.
My only complaint is that I live 40 minutes away, haha:)
I hope they open one in Newtown square!
A girl can dream, right?!

We recently moved to the Philadelphia area but prefer to make the hour trip back to Southern Chester County for what we believe is the best sushi around!
They have a huge menu and their rolls are larger than your average sushi joint.
Don’t let the strip mall or the mushroom smell fool you– Sake Hana has a very modern/​trendy atmosphere and can even accommodate large parties in their own private room.

The only thing shocking about this place is that it is located in avondale, pa. This place is so good they have like 4 or 5 sushi chefs working on tuesday nights. We get sushi, kids get chicken teriyaki, everyone is happy.
I wouldn’t say it is cheap, and it’s not always the fastest of places, but you can not complain at this place. Service, food, décor they get it all right!!!
I am here once a week, minimum…

I typically go to NYC or Philly for good Asian food. However, this place is a gem. Every meal I’ve eaten here has been good. From the Kani salad to the Glaciel Point Oysters to the Cashew Lovers. Friendly and helpful staff.

I love the chicken teriyaki dish here as well as the chicken and broccoli. My boyfriend raves about the sushi and has never complained. We just love to make a date night out of Sake Hana when we can. The staff is usually very friendly and the owner is almost always around to check on customers.

Last night I went for the third time and had the best experience yet. I’m not super into raw sushi and I absolutely love how they separate the menu between «raw» and «cooked.» Sometimes I avoid sushi because I’m not sure what I’m really getting, but here that’s not the case and I love it. I had the double happiness roll last night– delish.
I’ve also has the general tsaos chicken which was amazing, too. Last night my server, Melissa, was excellent and lovely. It was a great experience all around, and if you’re into Asian food, definitely give this place a shot!

Very disappointed! I’ve been here at least two other times and continue to think the next time will be better. When will I learn! Just had appetizers and calamari. If I wanted boxed frozen seafood, I could’ve went to traded Joe’s and bought it myself! The appetizer was okay but what you pay doesn’t reflect the quality you would expect. Save your money and head to lily’s for great sushi.

I have eaten here many times. Their special rolls are the best around. I love the Mango Tango and the Double Happiness. So many to choose from and I have never been disappointed. My kids 8 and 10 love the bento boxes off the kids menu. There are several choices even for my picky eater. It is also one of their favorite places to eat. Win, win.

Very good food and nice décor. But a bit expensive. Everyone in our group enjoyed their food. The bar drinks are expensive. I liked the wonton soup. The noodles were thin and they had the enoki mushrooms which added a nice unique touch. I don’t eat raw fish or meat sushi so I can’t tell you how that is, but the vegitarian rolls were excellent and the cooked food is great.

The sushi here is awesome. They also have cooked and non-​sushi items for those who are less adventurous. The atmosphere is a little odd (modern, maybe?) with the white walls, colored lights, and big tv’s in the front (bar) part. They are great about customer service (have comped us or given us free dessert for mistakes) and accommodate large parties well. It does get kinda loud and they are really busy on the weekends.

Sushi is the best around. Customer service was always great, and I’ve been here a lot. I like the atmosphere of the place. The ladies who work the bar are super sweet.

I went in to order take out the other day and waited almost an hour for my food. I only ordered two special rolls and a Hibachi steak but it took what seemed like forever for them to prepare my food. They only had a couple tables in dining and a few people at the bar. I saw a couple take outs come out ready but they were not mine even though the people were still not here to pick it up yet. On the other hand, I was waiting there with my friend for our food and they didn’t try to speed up our order at all. This just shows how they are bad at time management and had no better sense of priority. The people whose not there had their food prepared and sit there going cold while my friend and I were made to wait for our food. I don’t think that is smart management or good judgment in play.
So, that’s my rant on being made to wait for that long. Now going on to the food I ordered. The two sushi rolls were pretty good and fresh, but not worth the price I paid. The hibachi steak was made the way I like and tasted good but again not worth the price they charge. I was surprised it did not come with soup or salad. There was no choice of steam rice or fried rice either. Again, considering the hibachi steak costs $ 19, I think it should come with at least a choice of soup or salad. It only came with a small container of white rice and that’s it. Maybe I am a little too pampered by the Japanese steakhouses I used to go to that this place is overall way overpriced for the quality of the food they served and the service they give.
I’m sorry for having to give them only two stars as I know there are people that really gave this place 5 star reviews. This was my second time ordering take out from this place and both times we waited for our food. First time wasn’t that bad so we thought we should give it another try. Well, now we don’t think we are in a hurry to return. Maybe we will give it a third try some time again.

This place is nice, but not my favorite. The atmosphere is weird, the colored lights on the ceiling and behind the sushi bar are not my idea of great lighting and are actually really distracting. Service isn’t great. The first time I came in I ordered the sushi lunch entrée or sushi dinner entrée, can’t remember how late it was. What came out was really beautiful, piled high with all kinds of fantastic fish; because it was the sushi boat special for two. And I paid for it. The second time I came in I waited two whole hours (a friend timed it) for food beyond edamame and it took my friend complaining to get two drinks comped. When it came out though, everything was delicious.
I know a lot of people that really like this place, so I’m willing to give it another chance, and I have been since then and had nothing wrong, but nothing spectacular enough to make me forget the first two times. For me, this place is hit or miss, and would never be my choice on Friday night.

This place is really nice and well decorated. Everything was fresh! If you’re looking for a little more upscale sushi place this is your place. They have very friendly workers.

We are sushi snobs and have eaten in some of the best rated sushi restaraunts around the US (NY, Vegas, Baltimore, Toronto, Chicago). This place is right up there. It has some of the best sushi I have ever had. Rice is perfect, Ingrediants are very fresh. It is good enough that it is starting to attract patrons from further away which creates a good crowd on weekend nights. They did expand into the shop next door so they have more tables but expect a wait on Sat night at 7pm.
They seem to have problems with holding on to staff. There is a lot of turnover. THe manager/​owner seems stern and might be a bit much for some staff but he very responsive to customers.
The atmosphere is a little odd for the location (strip mall near mushrrom farms and horse farms) with its trendy lighting and dark furniture.
If you are stumped on the menu try a Sake Hana roll and a Mango Tango roll with a iced glass of Diamond sake.
Oh and try the calamari app… it is great.

I had dinner here with 3 other people on a Saturday night. The dim lighting in this place reminded me of Sushi Sumo in Delaware. My group sat at the sushi bar, which was unoccupied. It was fun watching the 5 sushi chefs behind the bar, whipping up yummy masterpieces.
This place was packed by the way, but our waitress was still checking in with us as we waited. Also we were all made a free little appetizer for sitting at the sushi bar. The specialty rolls were on par, price wise, with my other favorite sushi place, Sushi Sumo. The thing is that Sake Hana’s rolls are larger.
I ordered the Fisherman’s Wharf (Salmon tempura, mango, avocado, topped with lobster salad, honey wasabi and chili sauce) and Spicy Girl (Shrimp tempura, mango, topped with spicy Salmon, seaweed salad, spicy mayo.) The Fisherman’s was really good.
Even though this place was packed, the manager made it a point to come over and speak with my group; asking us how everything was.
This was my first time here and it will not be my last.
This rating is after trying Kyoto, Okura, Hibachi Sushi and Supreme Buffet, and Sushi Sumo in Delaware.

Best sushi in the area. We will never go back to Okura, Kyoto or Padi. My husband and I have brought several other couples over the past 6 months and they all feel the same way!
Lots of options of specialty rolls on the menu. Some of our favorites are Land and Sea, Sake Hana, Supreme Tuna, Rock and Roll and Spicy Mama.
Thai Basil Stir Fry with Chicken is awesome. I’m not a fan of the Amazing Shrimp, too sweet for me.
Atmosphere is cool with all the changing colors of lights. It definitely doesn’t feel like you’re in Avondale!
Sake Hana is definitely worth trying, you will be hooked!
