Sakana Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar

This place was amazing. This was my second time coming in and once again it was delicious. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive, and Chef David came out to greet us and check on or sushi. You can tell he really cares about his food. I ordered the David's Special roll and I can promise that's something I'll get every single time. My boyfriend got the Cancun roll which was also delicious. We also grabbed some of the sushi boat sushi, the crazy crab roll, the dynamite roll, and the alaska roll. Everything tasted fresh. We also each got Ramen, he got the curry and I got the Miso. My Miso broth was a lot more flavorfull then what I'm used to in the best way! Locals, do yourself a favor and venture out to Seabreeze for this place.

Sakana Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Daytona Beach. From the moment we walked in, the staff was friendly and welcoming. The sushi was fresh and beautifully presented (highly recommend the David’s Special Roll!). The portions are generous, and you can really tell they use high quality ingredients. Everything I ate was DELICIOUS! The atmosphere is lively without being too loud, perfect for both date nights and family dinners. Everything—from the food to the service—was outstanding. If you’re in Daytona Beach and craving great sushi or a fun hibachi experience, Sakana is a must-visit!

The service was good. Waitress was attentive and provided refills in a timely manner. We had three sushi rolls (dynamite, rainbow, and Hawaii). Dynamite roll was overcooked and found a spine one of the rolls. The cooked salmon on the dynamite roll was brown and didn’t taste fresh. The end of the dynamite roll did not have any edible items, just the outer crunch layer. The rainbow roll was also had spine and did no have great white tail fish.

Amazing!!! Our group came in for a birthday and we all had an excellent time. We first sat at the sushi bar with little boats of sushi going by you can pick off of. David the sushi chef was great. He checked on us and made sure everyone found the sushi we wanted. After sushi, we moved to the hibachi grill. Tei the chef at the grill was also great and very entertaining. The food was excellent and cooked perfectly. Our server was on top of everything at all times as well. We will definitely be back!!!

The food was alright. I love the idea of the sushi boats. So cute! But our sushi tasted a little old and it surprised me that almost every sushi option in the boats had onions in them? I've never had onion in a sushi roll so I was surprised by this. Also, we ordered some curry. It was kind of bland to me but my husband loved it. I guess to each their own. I liked this place just don't know if I'll ever come back to it when we visit Daytona again.
