Sake Cafe — Restaurant in City of Albany

I typically love Sake Cafe, Order it often, especially while at work. I have used the online ordering system right from their website because I know that Grubhub takes money away from the restaurant. Well I placed a order for my coworkers and I last week which ended up being on a day Sake was closed. I was not aware of this because the system still allowed me to place an order.

If it is Asian food you crave, this is the...
