I went to Sakura in Ojai on a Sunday night. The spicy edamame were very delicious and seasoned with fresh garlic. The sushi is well made and the ingredients are extremely fresh. They have a large variety of interesting rolls to choose from. They have a sushi bar for people also. I will definitely be back again!
Vegetarian options: The menu has a vegetarian section.
Kid-friendliness: Nice atmosphere for families.
Wheelchair accessibility: There are no stairs to get to restaurant.

Udon soup is not that spectacular comparing to other popular udon restaurants out there ?. that we had eaten. We came to celebrate our son exact 21st b-day. He liked to have Japanese meal for his special day. This was our first time trying out this restaurant.. Make sure you inspect your food ingredients in the soup before eating. Udon noodles were missing when waitress brought out the soup. Only vegetables . We had to send back. Washington roll is not available on the menu ; So we substitute with other rolls. Other rolls were okWe rode over 2hrs to get here due to bad thanksgiving traffic ?.lol ?.
Vegetarian options: The vegetables roll we ordered was missing ingredients so we didn't mind to substitute other ingredients but it's ok???

Tasty! Came here on a Saturday for lunch. Everything was delicious. The sear and flavor of the white tiger roll was *chefs kiss!* The sauce for the raw oysters complemented the dish well. Attentive servers and awesome food.

Knew the original owners. They did a fantastic job building clientel, food excellent and portion sizes larger than similar restaurants. New owners reduced portion size, but the food is still worth the trip. If they read these reviews I would suggest reducing the price. I dine out frequently, but don’t normally give reviews. $15 per entree is too high when at least in my family we order more than one roll for a meal. It’s not overpriced on quality, but overpriced on portion size. That said, we consider this a go-to restaurant.

We ordered takeout, so used the online menu. It didn't seem like there were a lot of different rolls, or sushi/sashimi options to select. The food was okay, but not really noteworthy.

Been here before and was impressed then. I ordered take out last night and was so disappointed. The rice was severely over cooked in the sushi it was almost mush. I ordered the spicy tuna and yellowtail and the fish was fine but the rice just ruined it. I also got the fried rice which also had very mushy rice and the oil used tasted really old, not to mention there was a lot of it, it leaked through the styrofoam. Maybe it was just a bad day, but it was a waste of $30.
Whenever I’m in smaller towns, I don’t exactly have high hopes for the sushi available, but this place blew me away. Everything was so incredibly fresh and the flavors were amazing. We got the baked green mussels, cucumber salad, Alaska roll, and the baby lobster roll. There was a sign saying that they were understaffed and to please have a little bit more flexibility, but overall the food came out at a pretty decent time and everyone was super friendly.
