on Citysearch May 11, 2009Let me first say I've never been to Japan...but if this is as "traditional" as it gets...I'm not impressed. I eat sushi from various restaurants at least 3-4 times a week (i know...mercury poisoning...whatever) and... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 17, 2009I always believe the services is just as important as the food. Base on the reviews I was excited to go to Sagami. My g/f work in haddonfield and she get out of work at 5:00pm on Sat. I figure, it's a perfect time to try... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 16, 2008If you like decent Japanese food in Philadelphia area, this is the place to go. I would not even try anything else unless you go to Morimoto. They serve traditional Japanese food as opposed to fusion food. The sushi... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 03, 2008I am a Japanese guy who travels entire world, and found this sushi restaurant as one of the best "Chirashi sushi" in the US. Whenever I have a chance to travel to Philadelphia area, I stop to eat "Chirashi Sushi" here.... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 23, 2008Food is always great, service is always great. Sagami gets crowded quickly, so reservations or going early would be recommended. My only complaint is they offer only one vegetarian entree- vegetable tempura. I... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 29, 2008We have been going to Sagami since I was a small child. It has experienced some changes as all restaurants that last a while do and I think the menu is less authentic and more Americanized than it used to be. That said,... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 27, 2008Excellent sushi for dining in, but you may go hungry if you want to carry out. Sagami has on repeat occasions refused customers take-out orders, claiming their chefs are too busy to take orders. It's really a shame.... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 27, 2008This is one of the original Japanese restaurants in South Jersey. And it's still one of the best. The service is good and the atmosphere is nice. The menu is extensive and you won't be disappointed in the portions or... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 05, 2006My first experience at Sagami I ordered the fish bowl. My Dad ordered sushi. When I first tasted his plate I loved it!!! By the end of the night I had taken his array of a la carte. This experience was over 7 years ago! I have... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 31, 2006Truly Sagami has the best sushi in the Philadelphia area. Not only is it extremely fresh, the selection and variety are outstanding. Barring the location, right off the highway in Collingswood, once you step into... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 11, 2006<b>In Short</b><br>Inside this boxy building on a busy highway is unassuming decor. The knotty-pine paneling and booths and a low ceiling are accented by paper lights, soy sauce pitchers and hand-painted wooden... (more)

on Citysearch May 04, 2006This is a bento box of a restaurant packed tight with some of the best sushi and Japanese cuisine around. If what you seek is serenity, however, you might want to keep on looking. Sagami is always a whirlwind of... (more)

on Judys Book Aug 20, 2005I have tried many Japanese restaurants in South Jersey, and Sagami is still by far the best. I brought my whole family here, and they all loved it. Located in a nondescript building in Collingswood, Sagami serves up... (more)

on Judys Book Aug 17, 2005If you are lamenting the fact that there is a lack of good Japanese restaurants in Philadelphia, and are willing to go a little bit farther for good raw fish, check this place out. It's right over the Ben Franklin Bridge... (more)

on Judys Book Aug 13, 2005Minutes away from Ben Franklin or Walt Whitman bridge on Rt 130 South lays a Japanese restaurant that is well known for the excellent raw/cooked food. Order the Chirashi, which is served in a bowl with the sushi rice on... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 27, 2002I no longer go to Sagami, although the sushi is one of the best, used to be #1 in the tristate. The reason I no longer frequent the restaurant has a lot to do with the service, in particular the owner. They tend to reserve... (more)
