San Sai Pasadena Japanese Grill is a japanese in Pasadena, California. It is listed at 350 S Lake Ave, Pasadena, CA 91101, which places it among the local businesses of Pasadena that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as sushi restaurant, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot. Korean BBQ restaurants typically charge per person for all-you-can-eat service with a time limit, and grills are shared at the table. Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself. Card and tap-to-pay are widely accepted; cash-only is more common at small family-run counters.

Pasadena is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Pasadena follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building.

Graciously substituted a spicy tuna roll for California roll due to my allergy, and all food was fresh, made to order. Staff friendly with speedy service. Its a cute lunch counter with grill and small fresh sushi bar, and a Japanese snack type market.

Recently discovered on door dash and have ordered twice on the app. I have tried the steak plate, spicy chicken bowl and veggie tempura. All delicious! I’d definitely order again. The veggie tempura had big pieces and a yummy sauce. The steak was tender and made to perfection. The spicy chicken also had good flavor. I look forward to visiting in person and trying other items

We ordered the party platter, which was PERFECT for sharing: rainbow roll, tiger roll, plus fresh salmon, tuna, hamachi, and shrimp nigiri. Ideal for group dinners or parties. We also tried the steak bowl, edamame, shrimp tempura handroll, and salmon handroll, and loved how this spot offers the best of both worlds with a grill + sushi combo menu. There’s something for everyone. One of my favorite parts is their Asian snack mini mart inside the restaurant. Recommend for casual meals, group hangouts, or party sushi orders.

I had the best Beef Teriyaki Combo eating experience. Let’s be honest, normally Beef Teriyaki is dry like jerky or thinly sliced that doesn’t taste like beef but at this Sansai , the BEEF TERIYAKI is incredible. It is an actual piece of tender steak that looks like hangar steak that is beautifully grilled and sliced up to perfection. It’s served with a veggie kabobs and fresh mixed salad, then rice on the side. On top of that their grilled chicken and salmon teriyaki are just amazing. Their rolls are creative like the TIGER ROLL and the 10 pieces of nigiri. IMO, Sansai Pasadena is so underrated because it’s a fast casual Japanese spot with a mini Japanese snack shop inside!

I recently visited San Sari and was pleasantly surprised by how delightful the entire experience was! The moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with friendly smiles and a quick, spacious dining area that’s for families, friends, or even a solo meal. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I tried the ramen, skewers, and sushi rolls, each dish had its own β€œwow” moment! You can really taste the quality in the ingredients. Portions were generous, and the balance of flavors was just right, especially the teriyaki and the rolls. Service here truly stands out. The staff is kind, attentive, and you can tell they genuinely care about their customers’ experience. It makes the meal feel even more special.
