“The interior of Sakura is absolutely beautiful, elegant, modern, and welcoming with a calming atmosphere that makes you want to linger. The staff is incredibly attentive and friendly, providing excellent service from start to finish.

The sake selection is superb. I highly recommend the Juneau Ginjo sake.

Unfortunately, the food portions were noticeably smaller than expected which was a bit disappointing. The flavors were solid, but I left still feeling a little hungry. Great for a nice date night or special occasion if you're not ravenous, but maybe not ideal for a big appetite. I'd still return for the ambiance and service!“

“we walked in this afternoon, I looked at my husband and asked what the smell was, it was musty and gross. the fans were blowing off of the fish, not to be graphic but it literally smelled like a used pad. Super disappointed because we usually love this place, probably won't ever be back.“

“Had a wonderful experience, even with covid impact, and my mistake. In my ignorance, I misunderstood the menu and ordered raw sushi. The server was amazing and she brought someone over to help educate me what to order with my dietary limitations. With his help, he educated me and I was able to find something. * Thank you to the evening staff on February 11th, for your patience and understanding. I'm sorry for the confusion, and my ignorance. <3 * If you prefer cooked sushi, I highly recommend the Snow White Roll, and the clear soup was fabulous. <3“

“Delicious food! Busy night but we were seated quickly. Julie was our waitress and she brought by youngest a small cup of ice cream for dessert which was so sweet. They were out of forks but other than my 6 year old we didn’t mind. The reverse happy hour was great- prices were better than normal on many great rolls.“
