Seriously the best you'll probably find in indiana, my girlfriend and I try to make it a couple times a year, the best udon noodles ive ever had, and just all around incredible food, that its not 5 stars is a ridiculous, make sure to make reservations, they are packed fulllllll like every night. Come a little early parking fills quickly but ive never had trouble parking close. The food truly has perfect balance and taste, smokey meat flavors delicious hearty noodles, perfect spice blends, absolutely fresh as can be fish, and excellent drink selections, from beer to wine and sake, and the enviroment is cozy and homey, with plenty of space between tables, so its not crowded. We found it by accident and it was the best accident.

Excellent quality sushi. Best soft shell crab roll I've had. Friendly staff, unfussy decor. It's all about the fresh and wonderful sashimi and sushi. Tuna nigiri carryout is a family favorite nearly weekly. Use their purchase card system if you're a frequent visitor. Thank you, Sakura for many years of standout fare.

We waited an hour to be seated and then another hour for the first food to come out. We kept waiting but the rest of our food but it took too long so we had to cancel and leave. The Pepsi also had no syrup and the waitress didn’t do anything to resolve the problem.

The sushi is wonderful the service was great, and the price was perfect. 20 year anniversary, wife wasn't fond of the udon ( a little fishy tasting) but just hanging with me was enough to get her through lol.

A cute little Japanese restaurant. The lady who attended our table is so lovely. She told us to not order too much but we just can’t hold the urge to try everything on the menu! The food is great! High quality sashimi and the food portion was generous too.

Authentic Japanese food in Indiana is rare unless you make it yourself. This place is authentic. I was craving katsudon since my Japan trip and this was one of the only places that not only makes it but has all the other Japanese beer and foods I craved but gave up on finding. Would highly recommend. The wait is worth it...but I would suggest calling a reservation ahead.

The classic and original Japanese restaurant where you find real Japanese food that you’ll find in Japan, as opposed to Americanized Japanese food. Great value on lunch menu too.
I’m glad we made a reservation at Sakura. The place was packed when we arrived, which is usually a good sign. The food confirmed that. The sushi was some of the best I’ve had in Indianapolis, the freshness was apparent by the textures, and the miso soup was excellent. The restaurant was clean, the prices were reasonable, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Sakura fills up quickly, so it helps to plan ahead, but it’s worth it. I’m already looking forward to going back.

I love this sushi bar. They have a varied menu and the sushi always looks/smells/tastes very fresh. One star off for atmosphere (with sushi that good, who cares about atmosphere?), but the lighting a high noise level could use an upgrade.
