Editorial Review for Zake – by Andrea Loera
In Short
A mix of couples and sushi devotees sit at the ample bar area at the front of the restaurant. In the main dining area, cozy booths reside alongside the rowdy hibachi section. Twinkling fiber-optic lights and throbbing dance music add to the modern lounge atmosphere. Popular appetizers include the zakeviche--snapper, tuna and salmon served seviche-style--and phyllo shrimp. Signature rolls like hot damn and the Soprano enliven the varied and authentic Japanese and sushi menu offerings.

The food is decent, but overpriced and the customer service is just awful. Consistently awful, I'm not talking just once or twice. Who are they hiring?
Pros: Decent sushi. Close to downtown offices.
Cons: What;s that smell, and how long until I get my check????

They're better at their rolls and non-sushi foods, all of which were fantastic when we visited. The actual sushi was dry with dried-out rice, and looked like it had been prepared way ahead of time. The cooked hibachi chicken is fantastic, though; so are their soups and their (cooked) sushi rolls.
Pros: good cooked foods, nice ambiance
Cons: sushi was merely average
