Sai-Bachi

If you need a quick fix to Jap cravings after your tiring grocery day, try this place. The place was just beside the supermarket and we found plenty of seats available that day so I took advantage of it. I ordered their maki and takoyaki.

Wow! For a very cheap price, they provided good food and quality service. I paid less than 250 for all. Very sulit and my Japanese Cravings satisfied!

saibachi's takoyaki is cheap & yummy! i tried other takoya in different japanese stalls but i liked it better in saibachi.

For that instant japanese cuisine fix after a long hours of grocery shopping, Takoyaki & a cup of Miso Soup will brighten up any grumpy face affordable 3 balls of Takoyaki for only Php35(?) it's not the best I've tasted but I enjoyed it nevertheless I'd say this is better than those takoyaki stalls found in a mall's foodcourt.

Hot white rice and pancit bihon happens to be one of my favorite comfort foods, especially at times when I'm really, really hungry. I literally put pancit bihon as a rice topping (aka ulam!).

Saibachi's Sukiyakidon is very much the same - white Japanese rice topped with udon glass noodles - made more flavorful and filling with the traditional sukiyaki beef (generous servings btw) and egg toppings.

Super like at only P110!

Surely the cheapest close to authentic Japanese food that can satisfy your craving - plus their tuna and wasabi are always fresh!

Food was way better than tokyo tokyo or karate kid.

Chicken teriyaki was superbly grilled crisp yet tender in every bite.

Maki and roll were good as well.

Serving size is adequate and good value for money overall.

Yummy yet affordable Japanese food!

This is one of the hidden gems in Alabang Town Center.

Be sure to try the takoyaki and the chapchae aside from the usual maki orders.

Next favorite to Fukuya. good sukiyaki and gyoza.

Sai-Bachi is now in Alabang Town Center (beside Serenitea in Metro Grocery) but I got this to go from the St. James Bazaar.

I've always liked Sai-bachi, they're quick and food is tasty. I did however find their Beef Terriyaki a bit bland despite the generous amount of terriyaki. I still enjoyed it though because most of the time I don't mind bland food as long as it's not completely tasteless and meat isn't knotty.

If you're not a fan of mayo then ask them to remove it from the greens. It's quite a lot and I do like mayo but try to cut back on it for health reasons.

Thanks to the quick work of Pam and the |looloo crew, I'm able to write this review on the same day that I requested for this venue to be included in the |looloo database!

Sai-bachi is one of those no non-sense places that deliver on their promise. Good food made fresh and served quick!

I ordered Tempura Udon and Gyoza. Simple, familiar dishes that tackle the hunger problem pronto. Two large pieces of shrimp tempura and 1 piece of karaage in a heaping bowl of hot, steaming udon. No fuss, no mess. This dish was as filling as it was tasty.

The Gyoza was equally good. Five relatively large pieces stuffed full of the Gyoza mix and fried to perfection.

To push this meal along, I ordered my favorite CBT from Serenitea next door (see previous review). Wonderful combo!
