Sansai it’s one of the best restaurants in the neighborhood. The food is consistently good and always delivers on flavor; generous portions at a reasonable price. If it’s your first time give it a shot to the Katsu bowl, the Jalapeño bombs and the rainbow roll. Great place to grab food, drinks and then walk around the 21 th- 23th streets. Zonam and his staff makes this place a go.

We were looking for a place to eat some sushi and have something to drink and we found San Sai! It was so good!
Great quality and portions were abundant, plus the happy hour discount makes it even better.
We will come back for sure, we need to try other dishes

Had lunch at San Sai Japanese Grill, and it was a bit of a mixed bag.
First off, the outdoor seating on NW 21st Avenue was a real highlight-it was a beautiful day, and dining outside always makes for a more enjoyable experience. The service was great from start to finish, which is always a plus.
I don’t eat sushi, but my dining companion does, and they love this place, so it seems to have its fans. As for my meal, I went with the teriyaki salmon bowl with brown rice and an oriental salad. While everything was fine, it didn’t stand out.
*The salmon tasted like it may have been frozen. Not bad, just not high quality.
*The green onions were sparse, which was a letdown.
*The salad was good but unremarkable.
*The brown rice was exactly what you would expect-nothing more, nothing less.
San Sai seems best suited for a quick, affordable lunch, especially if you’re not expecting premium quality. Would I personally choose this spot for a meal again?Probably not. But if you’re in the area and need something light and reasonably priced, it’s worth considering.
(Once again, I forgot to take photos before I started eating! However, you still get a good look at the dishes that were ordered.)

I had a quiet lunch with a friend on Tuesday at noon. At the time the restaurant wasn’t busy, but it got busier by the end of our meal I had a delicious chicken and shrimp plate with vegetable skewers. The staff were kind and considerate.

This is my husband’s and mine favorite sushi place! Excellent ingredient quality and the owner, Sunan, is always friendly and chats with us. Service is quick. The redbull, sansai special, and the baked snapper are our favorite rolls to get here.
