“Ambiance and vibe was excellent...hanging ornaments, green pine and honeycomb, and lights solidified that it's a Christmas! Very happy that Koto is near my home in Carolina Lakes as there aren't too many choices when it comes to Asian Cuisine however, out of the three places in proximity, this is the best. There is seating inside for approximately 32-36 people; very clean; and the employees are excellent and helped me with my order (explained what was in each dish and even turned me on to a new beverage, Milk Tea...yum!! The only thing that didn't resonate, hence the 4-star rating, is because I chose to dine in vs take out. The food came to me in plastic containers, soup in styrofoam, and plastic wear vs ceramics, glass, and sterling silver. Aside from an indoor picnic utensil theme, the food was awesome and in huge portions! I paid $20 for a Bento box; consumed 50% in the restaurant, minus the eight mini California Sushi Roll that came with the meal; ate the sushi roll for lunch the next day and then heated up and ate the other 50% of the main course a couple days later for dinner so, what a bargain!! I'll be back!!“
“Teriyaki Express in Sanford is a fantastic spot for a delicious meal. The environment is cozy and inviting with warm lighting making it perfect for a good lunch or dinner. The staff is very welcoming and friendly making the overall experience enjoyable. Additionally, the food is amazing and is made quickly and precise.Teriyaki Express is definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and craving some tasty Japanese food.“
“I like the variety of options from the menu. Prices are good for the portion served. Don't know why the cashier was pushy.. after every word I say I got hit "anything else?"The mastered sauce was one of the best I had so far where you can feel the wassapi taste in it.Parking: It's next to food lion so there are plenty of parking spaces“
“This is in my top three hibachi takeout places in the state of NC! Hibachi chicken was cooked and seasoned perfectly, and the steak soba was delicious as well. Along with the takeout, they added a few cups of yum yum (white) sauce also. We have yet to try other dishes on the menu, but are looking forward to trying them all.“
“My son wanted hibachi for his birthday so I was looking for a good place to take him. Usually, we go into town to another establishment; however, I didn't want to go into town and Sakura is much closer. I called to make a reservation since I didn't know what to expect as far as wait times had went just walked in. We were greeted upon entry and were immediately seated at a hibachi table. The ambience of the establishment is very nice, from the lighting to the interior decorations. The areas I saw appeared clean as well. In less than a minute, our waiter came to ask about our drinks followed by our order being taken. The soup and salad were delicious. We ordered shrimp, chicken, steak, and salmon hibachi, and an order of sushi. Our cook was phenomenal and very entertaining. I wish I'd gotten his name because I'd definitely recommend as well as request him the next time we decide to visit here. The portions are huge (which in my opinion makes the prices worth it). The food was delicious. 10/10 highly recommend! Thank you to the staff for an incredible birthday dinner for my son!“
