SAKU Japanese Restaurant — Restaurant in Chiang Rai Province

My favorite Japanese restaurant in C.Rai and only a short distance from Central Plaza.

Here your food is cooked by an original Japanese chef. Who is friendly and willing to offer advice if you ask. In my option the food taste so much better than the franchises I have been to.

It is small, with only 5 or 6 tables, however, it's clean, friendly waitress, free hot self service tea, limited, but reasonable priced menu, food is cooked while you wait and reasonable size portions.

If you enjoy home cooked Japanese food then you need to visit. A good sign is I always see the C.Rai Japanese residents eating there.

My only negative comment would be, street parking only.

Despite living some distance away I promised myself in 2022 to make more visits.

Hope you...

Unpretentious, run by a Japanese gentleman - the food was brilliant. It seemed he was alone on the evening we dined there so although SLIGHTLY slow, he was extremely sincere and kept updating on the status of the order. At least this also meant, every dish was being prepared fresh and to order. Lovely food - highly...

The food is really good and fresh here. So tasty that I only took one photo in the beginning (but we kept on ordering).

The salmon, yellowfin and tuna, were our favourites. Ikura and unagi were great too.

Comfortable homely setup and atmosphere with the sweetest chef and the softest cat in Thailand.

Domo...
