Sushi Sake is one of the best sushi restaurants I have been to in Austin (and I have been to a lot of them). I believe that Uchi may use fresher fish, but it comes at higher price. Sushi sake is a romantic restaurant that can be used for groups (where you can request the traditional Japanese sitting if your group is large enough). For a fun drink, I recommend the Wasabi Martini (extra wasabi for an extra kick). Generally when I go to restaurants, I like to try the specialty rolls. I strongly recommend getting the Spicy Susan roll (my favorite every time). There is also their deep fried phoenix roll, caterpillar, dragon, and you might still be able to order the Spicy Carlos (for those in the know).
Pros: Great Sushi, Romantic Ambiance, and Prompt Staff
Cons: Need to make reservations... nothing much here really!
