Some friends and I wanted to expand our Thursday-night sushi tradition to include more places than just Ra, Zake and Rickshaw, so we tried Sage 400 the other night. Bottom line - we won't be going back. Nothing was really bad, but it's just not for us, and we have a better experience elsewhere. The prices are a bit steeper than the other places, and the happy hour specials aren't quite as special. Additionally, the crowd was more 50-something than 20/30-something, and we missed the vibrant atmosphere of our other faves. Maybe it's the low ceilings, the muted decor or the barely-audible background music, but you cannot forget you're in a strip mall in this place.
Pros: large menu, interesting martini selection, good service
Cons: dishes not superlative, pricier than similar places, sleepy ambience
