Aside from what is becoming a dated decor, the food and tepanyaki was exquisite, and the atmosphere was very nice. Try it!

Seven of us went to get a sushi fix at Sakura and were not disappointed. They have a good range of appetizers and the the sushi chef spared us from trying to figure out how much to order by preparing a chef's choice selection that was just the right amount of sushi and had a good mix of sashimi, maki,...

Even though this incredible restaurant is located near my house, I had never been there before... And I really regret that. The personnel is as attentive as they could be, the food was perfect and the premises are beautiful. They sure know how to take good care of you. I'll definitely go again expecting to experience the same I did... More

We were disappointed that the host directed us to a normal table instead...giving us the impression that there was no table shows on tonight. Later during our meal, the tables were lit... More
