Reviews for Village Sake in Fairfax, CA
We came too late so some of the most popular dishes had been sold out. We still had a great dinner. All dishes are tasty. The... place is kind of understaff, it?s hard for us to get service after being seated in the corner. Read more
Just walked and it was much better than expected. Nice to have such quality food. The fish was fresh and cut correctly on the... nigiris and rice was perfection. They had lots of sake there, but I don't drink it so can't say much about that. Delicious Read more

The Village Sake Izakaya is a highly trendy and stylish izakaya that serves real cuisine and can be located in the center of the... lovely area of Fairfax. The district of Fairfax is known for its gorgeous setting. The diner can be situated along a path thatreceives a significant amount of foot traffic. This establishment provides every single one of the traditional Japaneseappetizers in their most authentic versions. These include the octopus croquettes known as takoyaki, which have a crispy surfaceand a smooth inside; okonomiyaki; tataki, which is prepared with silky smoked hamachi; and coconut mochi cake, which comesreplete with cardamom gelato. All of these dishes can be found at Japanese restaurants. If you really have to eat sushi, thereis only a limited range of mouthwatering nigiri for you to pick from; if you have the chance, you should give some shima aji andkinmedai a go. This location has a layout that is quite similar to that of Tokyo, with tables that are packed in close proximityto one another, an assortment of wood décor (including a live-edge wood counter), and a cheerful staff that is mostly comprisedof Japanese nationals. You should be prepared to spend a substantial amount of time in line, particularly on the weekends, sincethis is a popular destination that does not accept bookings. Read more
