Reviews for Sawa Sushi are notably polarized, with many patrons praising the freshness and quality of the fish, the delicious flavor of the poke bowls, and the reasonable price points. The dining environment is frequently described as warm and welcoming, making it a good spot for a date or a casual meal.

While the food itself receives high marks for consistency and care, particularly concerning allergy requirements, the operational challenges lead to a mixed overall experience for customers.

I ordered a salmon poke bowl, it tastes great, I like the amount of fresh veggies in it. But the salmon gave me food poisoning.

Disappointed, had a Tuna pokey bowl & over half the fish in my bowl was fibrous & inedible, the rest did not taste very fresh & I was a bit nauseous after my meal, something tasted weird, rice was very pasty, there are better cheaper options in the neighbourhood. Advertised menu prices not prices at register, charged me an extra $2...

This place is a hit or miss, sometimes sushi & pokes are good, sometimes salty & not so fresh. There's something about the cleanliness that I don't like either.
