Great chicken teriyaki. Good value for the amount of food. Good flavor for the sauce too.

boba in my drink was not fully cooked… it is Canto owned and I know they can do better.

I ordered my usual shrimp fried rice. Payed $12 + $1 tip. Rice barely had any vegetables or onions included. New cook didn't know what mustard was so I just asked for duck sauce since it seemed like I was a bother to him. Next time include the condiments inside of the bag and I simply would not have to ask.

Very affordable place for Chinese and Japanese cuisine. I loved the teriyaki tilapia, black pepper chicken, and the strawberry tea. They have milk tea, boba tea(or bubble tea if you will), fresh fruit teas hot or cold, juice and smoothies. The lady behind the counter is so nice. My only gripe is they close too early in the day for me to catch them most days. I wish they had longer hours but it seems as they watch their kids while they work here, so it might be hard for them. This is a place I’d encourage everybody to support.

Unexpectedly good food in a small indoor mall. One star off for food court-like atmosphere, but good food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff.

Great spot for quality chinese food. This place does it for me. I will probably become a regular. The bill was good for how much you get. Feels like a place in Los Angeles I loved.

I stopped by Sakura recently to try something different. I've never eaten here before and I've always wondered why they have one stand that sells Chinese and Japanese food. To be honest, it doesn't seem like Sakura differentiates their meals that much. It's the same person making similar food, except half of it sells at one counter and the other half sells at another counter. I ordered mushroom chicken with a side of veggies and it took a while to make. The food was of good quality and great taste. The staffer was friendly, but the wait was long. I'd definitely eat here again.
Best, cheapest place for legit teriyaki in downtown. Get lunch here all the time. They're a small mom-and-pop kind of place that serves the food fast but freshly cooked. They only deliver larger orders ($50+), and don't have someone specifically for delivery; just go for a walk and get it.

Great, delicious Japanese food. They are generous with their food portions. They are located in the food court. I try come here once a week. Highly recommended

Good food, they're not shady with their portion sizes either. The staff laughs and talks with you and makes sure your order is correct. There is a wait when you order sushi or California rolls. But it's totally worth it. It's always made fresh every day and you can see them cut the avocado, and which I've had bad at other locations but never this one. You can tell they take pride in their food/job. I eat here for lunch maybe 2 times a week and it's always sushi/California roll. It's my go to light lunch.
