All the food on the menu is excellent. Flavorful and well prepared. Serving could be slow but that is the point of enjoying yakidori grilled in front of you. This place is one of our go-to Friday night dinner places, relaxing with beers and great foods.

This Yakitori spot is delicious. Some of my favorites are the spicy chicken meatballs (it seems to be most people’s favorite here), the mochi (rice cake) maki. The quail egg maki was a first for me and I was not disappointed. The staff was extremely attentive and helpful.

Came on a Friday night, with no reservation. We had to wait a while to get seated. No wait list or anything to write our name down, so you just have to wait to get the attention from the server to let them know. The restaurant is pretty small, around 6 tables and 10 bar seating. At that time there were only 2 servers and one kushiyaki chef, so we understand that it will take a while. Overall everything that we ordered was very tasty, Agedashi tofu, Mushrooms with mashed potatoes, Kurobuta sausage, and black pepper wings were our favorites. But unfortunately a lot of kushiyaki items are not available, all beef items, all innards(heart, liver, gizzards) and other stuff. Will definitely come back to try their kushiyaki when it’s available next time.

Been going here for just under 20 years and it’s our favorite Japanese restaurant. Every time we’re in the neighborhood we have to stop. Super friendly and delicious.

I knew this place from a friend of mine who said great thing about this restaurant so i probably had high expectation. I came here with my partner around 5:30 when they just opened so no other customer except us. I got Fuyu which had 7 skewers with rice, salad and miso soup. I’m not a cheap person but for a $36 menu i expected at least something that would fill up my stomach. Since the meat was small so i end up still hungry when i left the restaurant. Honestly, those skewers were tasteless and disappointing. Service was xoxo. Hmm i don’t think i would be back, it’s just not worth it.

This authentic Japanese restaurant is a great choice for dinner. Sakura’s owner+chef and workers are welcoming and friendly. The restaurant is clean and warm. On the menu there is a vast choice of skewers and other dishes. All of us noted the high quality of meat and fresh ingredients used for the skewers, and how masterfully Yoshi-san prepared each dish. Highly recommended for any occasion.
