You should put Sake House on your short list (to review) - I never put 2 + 2 together for the longest time & actually thought that there were a pair of Japanese/Sushi restaurants within feet of each other since they actually have store frontage/entrances on 2 streets in 5 Points - pretty unique if you ask me.

I'll keep that in mind - thanks for the suggestion!

Sake house is bleh...

Best sushi in town is Sumo Sushi, ask for the leather-bound menu not the regular one. Prepare to get your socks knocked off.

YES!!!! Finally somebody on this site is Reppin' Sumo Sushi besides me! Right now I would say it is the best kept secret in Riverside.

On my way!

I'm actually not a big fan of sake house but was trying not to shoot them in the foot. Sumo is pretty tasty!!

I guess the Fu Hau thread hijack is in full effect now, but, I had to post the #10 from the "leather" Sumo Sushi menu tonight - YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING HERE - RIGHT? What's the inspiration? WTF!

By the way, this place was amazing as described........

I like Sake house for the teppanyaki and Sumo for the sushi. Sumo has craaaapp teppanyaki.

Thread hijacks being what they are. I've never had a real "horrible" experience at Fu Hao. The food's always been consistently good for me and the worst thing that's ever happened was I had to wait an exorbitant amount of time for my check once. But my food came out in a timely fashion. So no black mark there.

I had lunch at this restaurant a week or so ago and it was terrific. A full (dinner at lunch?) high quality meal for around $7 to $8. I'll be back often.

After losing one of my faves, Wormans, I am on the prowl for affordable quality replacements.
