Sake Japanese — Restaurant in Braintree

I can only assume 4.6 stars comes from their sushi menu. I ordered chicken katsu ($11) and chicken ramen ($17), I’m clueless as to how my order came up to $41. Placed approx 2100 on today 8/14. I didn’t question because I was geeked to try what would arguably be the best ramen on this side of town. Boy was I disappointed. The chicken katsu was much more than I expected. The only time that happens is when the cost of chicken is much lower than “fresh” chicken breasts. This had to be frozen prior. The veggies served on the side came out of frozen bags too. The ramen was well packaged but lacked a lot. One star for food because of flavor and quality. One star on service because I was charged approximately $10 more for nothing. The $41 was a wash. I had to go and find something else to eat because I refused to go to bed hungry.

Side note: My wife and I eat quite a bit of ramen. This was worse than eating the cup of ramen they sell at r the grocery store with seasoning packets that have 1000 mg of...

Hey, hey! So, I found myself in Braintree, Mass. Yeah, I know, sounds like a fruit's brain, right? Anyway, stumbled into this joint, Sake Japanese. Let me tell ya, the place is a real looker! Most restaurants just throw up some generic art and call it a day. But not Sake Japanese. No, no. It's like walking into a Quentin Tarantino samurai dream. The decor? Top-notch. Made me feel like I was in Kyoto and not, ya know, Braintree. Almost forgot I was in Massachusetts for a minute, and let’s be honest, who wouldn’t want a break from that? The experience? Immersive. Like IMAX for your taste buds and eyeballs. If you ever find yourself lost in Braintree, and let's be real, who plans to go there, make sure to swing by. It's worth the detour! Cheers to Sake Japanese for making Braintree feel a bit more......

So we've been wanting to try this sushi bar for some time. That being said, a couple of things need to be addressed. The waitress spent most of her time on the phone instead of paying attention to the guest. Clean place, but nothing to make you feel welcome and inviting, and there is little engagement with the patrons. The food was moderately good, but nothing to write home about the price point was a bit on the high end, but for good sushi, it's worth it. This is more of a cliche place. It checks the basic boxes, but I'll have to try it again just to see if this review makes any changes. Oh, clean the ceiling fan, no wants dust and dirt flying...
