Saisaki Van Wert — Restaurant in Van Wert

10/19/2025 - After reading the reply from the restaurant, it is interesting. There was no apology on the phone but that would have been nice.

UPDATE: My food finally arrived around 8:43 p.m.—nearly two hours after I placed my online order. There was no apology from the restaurant and zero accountability. It shouldn’t be the customer’s job to track down or coordinate their own delivery. Easily the worst experience I’ve ever had with a restaurant.

Avoid ordering online—especially for delivery. I placed an order through the restaurant’s own website at 6:59 p.m. and called at 8:10 p.m. to check the status. They told me my food was ready, but since it was a delivery order (which I had already paid for), I asked when it would arrive. I was then told I needed to contact DoorDash, even though I hadn’t ordered through their app. When I asked to cancel, they refused. After the call, the delivery time was suddenly pushed back to 8:30 p.m. Terrible customer service—they clearly didn’t care about...

This new spot is exactly what Van Wert needed! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm, modern atmosphere that balances comfort and style. The sushi bar is the star—fresh, beautifully plated, and full of creative rolls that rival big-city sushi. The chefs clearly take pride in both flavor and presentation.

The bar is just as impressive, offering everything from craft cocktails to a thoughtful wine and sake list. It’s a perfect place to unwind after work or pair with your meal.

What makes this restaurant even better is the outdoor dining. The patio feels inviting and relaxed—ideal for enjoying sushi and drinks on a nice evening. Service is attentive without being overbearing, and the team makes you feel like a welcomed guest.

Overall, this is the kind of restaurant you’ll want to return to again and again, whether for date night, a casual dinner, or drinks with friends. A true new gem...

Recently opened and pretty busy so I'm giving some grace here for being out of burgers, tea, and desserts. I get it. Our server was fantastic, our food was good but a little on the pricey side. The reason I gave a 3 star is because I witnessed the manager or owner (IDK) scream and make a scene at another table because they mentioned that their food took way too long and 1 person's meal came 40 minutes after the others. Seems reasonable to bring this to the manager's attention if done respectfully and from my perspective it seemed it was done respectfully by the customer but I couldn't hear what he said. He never raised his voice or made a scene...while the manager was literally throwing a tantrum and kicked them out. There were kids at the table right next to them and that just struck me as wrong, unprofessional, and rude. Don't know yet if I'll be visiting this place again or not...NOT a good...
