They didn't offer us a vegan menu but after checking, the server said there were very few vegan options: edamame, veggie and avocado rolls, ginger broccoli, inari, and maybe one or two other things. We got the chile edamame, veggie rolls, inari, and avocado rolls which were fine.

I stopped in on a Friday afternoon for a quick lunch. Kyle B was my server and he's an absolute star. I will be returning soon!

I arrived an hour before close. We stood at the front door for five mintues. Four people made eye contact, and not one person gave a half smile, head nod or offered to help. Sinoun walked out, and immediately greeted us from across the restaurant. She apologized for us having to wait. She was very attentive. She turned my mood around. I hadn't eaten all day so my patience and stomach wasn't thin... I will return.

The place was busy and a little noisy but we loved our food (two orders of sushi and chicken wings) and the service was excellent. Would definitely go again.

Food and service are very high quality but losing the old decor was a major loss. They used to have beautiful interior wood work with naturalistic and homey surroundings. Now it's been replaced with cold charmless concrete.

great quality sushi, you can really taste the freshness of it. I would say they have the best wings in Minnesota. My only issue came with the Spicey Mayo. I’ve had a lot of Spicey mayos, theirs unfortunately isn’t my favorite. It’s very watery and lacks that milky taste that you are looking for in a Mayo. And it doesn’t have that kick. Besides that everything is great.
Love the soups always comes here for special occasions.

There were four of us for dinner and the food and drinks were fabulous. I just really miss the OG Saji-ya. The ambiance there was so cozy and dim very relaxing and romantic. The new Saji-ya's ambiance can't compare. It's very sterile and bright .

Was super excited to try Saji-Ya, newly reopened, but was disappointed by the waitress who was condescending. We ordered the poke bowl, which, in the description at the time said was fish served over rice and it didn't have any rice. When we mentioned this discrepancy, she called the manager out for us who reiterated that it was not served with rice even though the paper menu said otherwise. Also, they charged us for an extra california roll which we didn't order. Anyways, just kinda a bad vibe and way to spend a birthday.

I highly recommend you stop into Saji-Ya's for food, drinks, and remarkable service from their talented chefs and staff. You will be wanting to go back for more!

First time at the new location, and the experience was very poor. The new site is a shrine to concrete, and that results in a noisy din which makes conversation difficult. The service was poor: 30 minutes after sitting down we were still sipping our waters. In addition, the server made two mistakes with our order.The food (sushi maki) was mediocre, and the two specialty rolls were especially disappointing (at $25 per roll).The capstone of the evening was receiving the bill and finding a $68 charge for the double of Macallans I ordered. That is an absurd price and twice as much as I've paid in other local establishments.
Wonderful! Exceptional service and food. Will happily come here again.
