“Absolutely delicious. I've been coming here for years and it's hard to beat. The place is a little small so you may have to wait a bit for a table on a busy night but it's worth it. Very reasonably priced and high quality. The portion size of their sashimi is the largest of any sushi place I've been to. They give you big slabs of fish and I love it.“

“I had sushi and it was great. Fresh flavors, tight rolls, good rice. The appearance was good as well. The mango mojito or Fuji apple tini were very good with the meal. Service kept up with our drinks and food was served promptly. The atmosphere was simple for just a booth for sushi. The hibachi was much more lively and appeared worth a try seeing things from a distance.“

Sakura has great food at a great price and is a good way to break away from the monotony of overpriced hamburgers and every restaurant's "original" chicken sandwich. My truck partner and I make a habit of swinging through once or twice a week.“

“Such a an abundance of culinary offerings. all beautifully and masterfully prepared. Always an meal adventure. (Unfortunately, the owner has never addresses the fact that the 2016 bottles of Beuhler Chardonnay have started to turn. My friend and I each had a glass and I purchased the rest to take home. The glass at home confirmed the change in the wine which has been an all time favorite for years. Several month ago, I took the time and wrote to mention this fact. Even a 5 year old Chardonnay is pushing the limit. Sadly, I did not receive the respect of a response not to mention removing the stock that remained.“

“I took there my family for birthday dinner. There were 11 of us and I liked that they give us one big table so we could be together. Also the most exciting thing was that they allowed to bring our bd cake.

Parking: It's big enough space in front of building. Never had problems to park even they share it with businesses next door.

Kid-friendliness: I have six kids every time we go there we didn't have any problems with kids. I feel like they like us there ???“
