Cirella’s at Saks Fifth Avenue

Cirella’s is the restaurant in Saks Fifth Avenue at the Walt Whitman Shops. Seating right now is currently tight, but they will be undergoing renovations this year.
Their food is fantastic. Sushi is always a good choice, especially if you’re looking to grab something quick and delicious. My person favorite is the «crazy crab» roll. The edamame is a great light option or add-​on. I also highly recommend the penne a la vodka, the Saks salad flatbread, the Saks salad, and the buffalo chicken wrap. I personally switch out regular fries for sweet potato fries, and they come with this sweet maple-​honey mustard kind of dipping sauce. For dessert, Cirellas has frozen yogurt and countless toppings.
Whether you’re shopping in Saks or walking through the mall, you must stop into Cirella’s for a bite to eat!

after coming here for years I can wholeheartedly say this place is everything a good restaurant should be. And the prices are so affordable!
Lots of choices for creative sandwiches, huge portions, and lovely quick service.
Always the highlight of my shopping trip with my best friend.
Here’s what to do:
healthy option: order 1 sandwich to share which comes with a side salad and order an extra side salad. Perfect portion size.
Hearty option: two soups (french onion is salty goodness) and one sandwich order with fries. The fries are thick cut and golden so it’s hard to say no to them.
Now go shop, and then take a break here to go shop some more

Perfect score for the food. Absolutely delicious. BUT how many times do I have to complain about the hostess?! She is so rude! She is very unwelcoming. I’m not the only one that thinks this. Quite a few people have said this. Every other person who works there is so sweet. Me and my husband loved coming here on the weekends but I think I’ll go elsewhere unless they get rid of her.

Been going there for years. Located inside Sak’s Fifth Avenue in the Walt Whitman mall, it’s always crowded! Fortunately Cirella’s isn’t as expensive as the store it’s in! They have an amazing sushi menu! I love the «window specials» they offer as well. Its usually some sort of wrap, panini or sandwich. You can order sweet potato fries with your meal. They are to die for! Even though they are always busy the wait staff is so patient & friendly. Cirella’s is my favorite quick meal in this mall.

Had lunch here Friday while shopping with the hubby. Pretty impressed with food and quality — as expected since we’re already familiar with the sister restaurant in Melville. Sweetie ordered the ‘cold’ lobster roll which was almost an entire lobster with light mayo, avocados and nicely seasoned. I had the deluxe sushi lunch — sushi is good quality but I feel that what I had at the melville location was just a tad better. The bomb though was the sweet potato fries. Light batter had hints of maple syrup, lots of crunch but tender goodness inside. Nuff said.

This is my second time here and I have to say the food is absolutely delicious. It’s a little pricey but that’s expected since it’s inside Sak’s. I ordered the grilled chicken panini which was made with grilled chicken, swiss cheese, bacon, mesclun greens, dried cranberries, and honey mustard. I must say it has to be one of the best paninis I’ve ever eaten! It came with either French fries, sweet potato fries, or a side salad. I ordered the salad which came topped with a balsamic vinaigrette. It was good, but nothing you couldn’t find elsewhere. If you’re looking for a nice place to sit down and eat while at the Walt Whitman mall, I highly suggest Cirella’s as the place to go.

Southwest chicken wrap for the win. Everything is delish. The fact that they have a sushi bar in addition to their restaurant is awesome. I’m a Bloomingdale’s employee who finds herself at Saks weekly because of this place.

Have been here easily over 100 times. The sushi is amazing as well as their sweet potato fries. Will always be one of my favorite lunch spots on Long Island. Only complaint is they don’t serve dinner.

thing is, i really like the food. i love going there to pick up a delicious wrap or sushi, but i find it to be so awkward going in there sometimes. the lady who takes the orders in the front is rude and it’s awkward to stand by the wall, cramed as you wait for your order to be ready.

Been doing lunch here on a weekly basis for a year plus and I must say this establishment is consistent and reliable in its food quality. All ingredients, salads and breads are very fresh and prepared to order. The place is very clean and inviting. I have never been disappointed with my meal. I often order the chicken panini and it’s always perfect. Chicken is never over cooked or dry. Salad is always totally fresh and the fries are hot and not saturated with oil. The service is always on point and the place runs like a top. There are two managers that are always on top of things. The Place is always crowded with women taking a break from their shopping excursions. As such the scene is always quite entertaining. Although it’s tucked into Saks department it’s surely worth a visit. Consistency, reliability and most of all Great food. Thumbs up.

An extension of Cirella’s on 110 the Cirella’s at Saks is packing a lot of punch in a small package.
Surprisingly good sushi is the first thing I should note, so don’t be off put by the slightly out of place sushi bar. Second the service was incredibly attentive and friendly, at times perhaps overbearing, but still very pleasant and good.
It’s a nice change from your typical shopping mall dining experiences and delivers big on service and the menu. If you’re a regular at Saks I’m sure you know about it, but if you unaware of it, it’s great lunch option at Walt Whitman Mall.

After a long day of shopping I CRAVE Cirella’s at Saks. Whether you’re in the mood for soup and a salad, sushi, or a sandwich you can’t go wrong here! Huge portions, decent price considering it’s sitting in the middle of the most expensive department store in walt whitman mall. Everything’s fresh, great service. In-​and-​out dining. A counter for those who prefer to shop solo. Make your own salad. And I could never forget the frozen yogurt!!! (i believe it’s the same yogurt served at bloomingdales (forty carrots. Best toppings!!! Straight up dalocious (duh-​loy-​shuss)

Had Cirella’s been as good as the last time, I would be able to give it five stars instead of three. However, because my mom did not like her dish as much, I have to deduct two stars. After our first excellent experience at Cirella’s, my mom and myself decided to go back to Cirella’s for lunch. Enjoying the cozy atmosphere, I ordered a Saks Roll and my mom ordered Salmon Sashimi like we did the last time. Unfortunately, my mom was not prepared for her disappointing lunch. While I enjoyed my Saks Roll, which contained fresh and sweet crab, tender shrimp, avocado, crisp shredded carrots and cucumbers, vinegared rice, seaweed, and a sweet and salty eel sauce, my mom was unimpressed with her Salmon Sashimi and had to send it back twice. The first time, she found the Salmon Sashimi to be too fatty. However, the second time, she was even more unimpressed as she found the Salmon Sashimi to be as if it were frozen and observed that the sushi chef tried to hide this fact by cutting the fish into smaller pieces in order to make her think that it was fresh. Despite my mom’s lousy Sashimi, we have to give our friendly and excellent waitress credit that she happily replaced the sashimi for us and was very apologetic, even taking the Sashimi off of our bill. Also, I enjoyed the Sweet Potato Fries, which were salty, sweet, and crispy. Unfortunately, my mom and myself may not go back to Cirella’s for a while due to the fact that the Salmon Sashimi was lousy on this visit.
