“is nice severe and good food“

“Very chill, went with a friend. Ordered the vegan cucumber avacado roll which came with pickled ginger & wasabi, also got edamame with sweet tea & strawberry japanese soda. Loved it! Hope they can add some more vegan friendly appetizers & items, but enjoyed.

Friendly, patient service, provided guidance for dietary restrictions. Hoping to return sometime.

Domo arigato gozaimashita, thank you very much.“

“So let me tell you. I love their sushi. Good food. Great price. Always good service. Now a beef. I used to eat there twice a month. They give you fried Oreo for desert. Complements of the house. But when I order pick up guess what. They wanted to charge $6 for something they give me free. Used to be a regular and hate to even say something negative but that’s just not right.“

“Best sushi in town. Awesome food with the best service… Thanks Hiro!“

“Good was fantastic and the show was entertaining. Often the guys don't the hibachi just go through the same old routine, but we saw several new things here tonight.

Pricing was fair, especially considering the quality of the actual food was higher than the last few Japanese steakhouses we've been to recently.

Would come back for more.“

“Delicious food! I love it!“

“Great food! Everything, every time, has been delicious. Restaurant is very clean. Staff is friendly. Highly recommend!“

“This new Poke and Hibachi place in JCP area is awesome! Fresh ingredients and very unique sauce tasty!! Also obsessed with their brown sugar boba milk tea!! Price super affordable as well! Definitely will come back!“

“Decent price & great sushi 🍣 Can’t say no more!!!!“

“At Christmas we had 19 here the staff was amazing, the service was PERFECT!!! We tell friends to come here all the time, we come here at least 2 times a month!!! Can't get enough�“

“Phillp Sushi is hands down one of the best (if not the best) sushi restaurants in Jacksonville. The two best rolls... "Out of Control" and "Godzilla Rolls" with soy paper are hard to beat!!“

“Food was super fast & tasty! Your employee, Katie was friendly & very helpful. We will definitely be back.“

“Delicious food in a beautiful environment. Service was very good.“

“Place is nice, service was great and the food is good. Lina our server was super sweet and attentive, made great recommendations. My wife loved the hibachi Salmon and my nigiri and sashimi platter was outstanding. We will be coming back soon.“

“This was my first time eating here and it won’t be my last. The police was really clean and I am very excited for the new ownership of the building, the place was really clean and inviting so I did not mind waiting. The staff was OK. I think I may have annoyed the lady running the cash register because I took so long and couldn’t make up my mind what I wanted. But I did try shrimp hibachi it was really good and everything was fresh. The rice was sticky just like how I liked it. I also appreciate that you get two shrimp sauces or Yum Yum sauces with your hibachi order so that was great. The fried cheesecake was so delicious, crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. Love,love, love, the food. $19 + tip is pretty pricey for 1 plate and a slice of cheesecake, however try again.“

“The food was excellent, the service was impeccable. I have to mention I was being sidetracked by our five-year-old, as well as my teenager. Ordering could have been, well frustrating for the server. She sweetly repeated herself as many times as I needed her to. I would gladly eat at this place every day.“

“my step daughter and wife's favorite place to eat.“

“From Onion Volcanoes to Koi Ponds: Why Sakura is the Ultimate Date NightSo you want to celebrate your first date in style? Maybe it’s their birthday, maybe you’re ready to pop the question, or maybe you just want to show your partner they’re worth the world. Sakura Japanese Steak House on San Jose Blvd delivers it all with hibachi flames, bold sushi, and a koi garden so dreamy it feels like fairy-topia.
When the appetizers arrive, don’t be fooled—what looks like mozzarella sticks are actually calamari in disguise. Rolled, breaded, and fried golden, it’s a crunchy surprise that makes you laugh before you even take the first bite.
Then comes the sushi. Sakura doesn’t do subtle. Rolls arrive stacked, shredded, and garnished with flowers flashy, colorful, and unapologetically extra. They’re as Instagram-worthy as they are tasty.
Yhe real magic happens at the hibachi grill. Chefs flip shrimp across the table, clank spatulas like drumsticks, and light onion volcanoes that puff steam like a miniature Mount Fuji. It’s dinner with a side of “wow.”
Inside, the tables hum with energy sizzling rice, flying veggies, and plenty of laughs. Step outside after your meal and the vibe shifts. Fairy lights glow above koi ponds and waterfalls, creating a dreamlike setting that feels made for romance.
Sakura isn’t just dinner it’s a destination. Whether you’re celebrating your first date, your partner’s birthday, or even dropping to one knee, this is the kind of place that turns a meal into a milestone.
If they don’t say yes after this date night… it’s not the restaurant’s fault. 😉
Koi ponds, hibachi fire, and sushi drama Sakura has it all.“

“I have eaten at the restraunt a couple times inside and it has been awesome everytime so I do recommend eating there. Service has always been awesome, but Do not order to go. The food quality to go is nowhere close to when eat eat there and that's disappointing. I ordered hibatchi chicken and shrimp to go and pretty good chicken and shrimp floating in sauce and a bunch of onions and carrots floating in watery sauce. Will never order to go again. Especially when my whole order was over 75 dollars.“

“This was my favorite restaurant in Jax. But, the waiter decided to add a 20% gratuity to the total. We were only a party of two, and this typically applies to parties of more than 4. Be sure to check your tickets. He did this to everyone at the table. We will not be revisiting anytime soon. Likewise, he only checked our drinks once.“

“My favorite place for ramen 🍜“

“Great spot for sushi burritos! I get a veggie roll every time, and sometimes I choose to have it rolled, cut, or even deep-fried.

The staff are super nice and always playing music. However, I notice that when a certain lady is there, the guys tend to be quieter and don’t talk much, as she seems a bit strict. This place is located inside The Avenue Mall in the food court.

The food is delicious and reasonably priced. It’s an extra $1 for deep-frying, and avocado and cream cheese cost between $0.50 and $0.75 extra, while additional sauce is just $0.25.

I highly recommend this place! I get a burrito every time I'm at the mall.“

“I'd eat here again service is ok food is good“

“Our experience with Domo was a great one. Took my daughter in law their for her birthday along with my wife and son. All the dishes were well prepared, and spices were prefect! Waitress kept drinks �“

“Very fresh and delicious. Staff was very fast and friendly. Great atmosphere, more people should try this place. It's better than Fuji. While the menu is smaller, what they do is better, and their kitchen items were great! We'll be back.“

“I love this place. I drive about 30 minutes to get the amazing Japanese teriyaki chicken with noodles and steamed rice mixed vegetables and tons of teriyaki chicken. The portion size is unbelievably huge. Totally get your money's worth.. super friendly staff. Gilbert the manager and Miguel always greet me with a smile and a thumbs up. Way to go guys. Best value for Japanese teriyaki.“

“When we got there it was an hour long wait for the grill and a 10-15 minute wait for a regular table. The kids wanted to do the grill but were ok with the regular table after we found out how long we would have to wait for the grill. There were only 2 cooks at the grill tables so we knew it would take some time for everyone to enjoy the presentation. We were seated at our regular table and our waitress was AMAZING even since she was really busy!! Our food was delicious and came out fast!!!! Our drinks were never empty and she was checking on us the whole time!!!! Would definitely recommend Jana's Steakhouse to anyone!!!“

“I've been a loyal customer here for awhile now I have never had any issues or complaints about the food nor the staff, food is always hot and delicious and the staff I see and interact on a daily basis are just amazing. I have always been treated with the highest respect as I treat them the same as well you feel as family, we joke and have many many laughs everyone here are just awesome we get along so well that I even named two of the woman there mama 1 and mama 2. The entire team here are good people from the staff upfront to the staff in the back, hands down this is the best location to come to 😊👏👏👏👍🤙.“

“Saigon Wok is excellent! The Saigon Wings are very, very good — crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. My wife loves the Singapore Curry Noodles, and the Combination Curry Noodles with chicken, beef, and shrimp are outstanding. Great service, generous portions, and consistently delicious food. One of our favorite spots in Fleming Island!“

“Egg Roll King delivers everytime! This is my families go to for chinese takeout. People at the business are always nice. Try the chicken sticks, won tons cause theyre so good. I always get the sweet n sour chicken cause its to good. I havent tried any other meal but im sure its amazing.“

“my step daughter and wife's favorite place to eat.“

“My wife and I had a good experience here. We ate in and it was peaceful, we werent being hovered over nor being ignored or ill attended. The food was good, nothing absolutely mind blowing but good, and the sushi the same. The sauces seemed to be a little bland and if you like spicy stuff, well they only have siracha (no home made hot sauces). I put a 4 on food cause it couldve been hotter. The soup was warm, wish it was hot and presented a little steam, as well as the food. All of it was luke warm, nothing came out with steam from the heat but it all tastes good.“

“This place is my absolute comfort zone! Since moving to Jax, I’ve been coming here every time I shop at Walmart. The complimentary sushi rolls are amazing, the sushi is super fresh, and the hibachi portions are huge with soup or salad. The service is fantastic—such a small place, yet they always make sure you have everything you need. Love it! ❤️“

“I ordered using DoorDash for my family of 3. One has ordered from Sushya many times so we agreed to give it a try. It arrived quickly and everything was so good! We chose Katsu and Udon. Hot, delicious with generous portions. Enough for leftovers. Happy nothing was too salty. Will order from there again!“

“The food was amazing! I ordered the Chicken Teriyaki Bento box! Large portions and super flavorful!“

“It is the best sushi on the Westside. Nice and friendly people there.“

“children so friendly restaurant“

“I love this restaurant and have recommended it to multiple people because they provide and all you can eat style menu but everything is fresh and made to order so I love it for that reason. The food tastes great. Over the years though the building itself has started to deteriorate: tables are run down walls run down. Bathrooms are rundown. Service is mid. I still go because I love the food, but wish the other things would be fixed.“
