SANSAI PASADENA
In 2002, SanSai® Japanese Grill opened its first location in Glendale, CA, bringing fresh, healthy, and affordable Japanese cuisine to a fast-casual setting. Founded by passionate food lovers with a vision dating back to 1978, SanSai quickly gained popularity for its flavorful dishes and inviting atmosphere. After acquiring SanSai USA assets in 2009, we’ve remained committed to delivering quality, value, and exceptional service across Southern California and beyond.
