Sake Sushi Bar & Lounge in Montrose, CA
Sake Sushi
Bar Lounge
Fresh rolls, premium sake, and the kind of lounge vibe Montrose has been coming back to since 2009. Try the Montrose Roll, Green Goblin, or Popcorn Lobster — and see why the neighbors keep coming back.
More Than Just a Restaurant
We opened our doors on Honolulu Ave in 2009 with one goal — to be the sushi spot Montrose could call its own. Over 15 years later, we're still here, still rolling, and still pouring cold sake for the neighbors who made us what we are.
From your first Montrose Roll to your hundredth visit, Sake is where good nights start. Pull up a booth, order the Green Goblin, and let the night take care of itself.
Signature Rolls You'll Dream About
The Green Goblin. The Montrose Roll. The Hogwarts Special. These aren't just rolls — they're the reason your friends keep asking where you went for dinner.
