The time we were there. They were busy. We order sushi, and the chef knows it’ll take him a while, so they give us free appetizers to compensate for the wait. Also had the miso ramen. The miso ramen tastes pretty good, but I like mine very spicy. When the sushi arrived, it was worth the wait. It tastes great, and we all enjoyed it. The staff was friendly, and the service was great.

One wanted sushi so based in ratings we tried Sakura and were glad we did. It’s in a strip mall and is not a big place so wasn’t sure about it, but servers were friendly and attentive. We each ordered a different roll, and tried each others. Very good, very fresh. Prices compare OK with other sushi restaurants. Today we chose sushi but it is a Japanese restaurant with those options. It’s a simple 2-sided menu.

Food was fresh and tasty. Sushi was definitely the best. We really enjoyed tempura green beans. They have a great appetizer menu. My cousin loved the ramen w pork belly and egg. I thought the egg was a little overcooked. I got the yakisoba noodles w chicken. Wish there was more veggies, chicken, and different flavor besides normal habachi flavor. Japanese sodas were a fun offering. Overall, really enjoyed it and will come back to get sushi and try more apps.

I gave Sakura 4 stars for food alone. We ordered the Sakura special for 2 which comes with soup and salad. Our waiter finally returned to our table when the whole meal was ready then proceeds to ask if we need anything else. Yes our soup and salad. He ask if we still want it, well duh I’m paying for it so of coarse I want my food. We were still out of drink from before since he had yet to return with refills. The table beside us had to flag another waitress down to get refills as well. We ran out of drink yet again before we finished eating and weren’t ask if we needed refills or offered until we were paying. So basically the food was fabulous, shrimp and scallops cooked perfectly, but service was horrible.
