" I've been hearing rave reviews about Sakura and thought I would try it out. The sushi is indeed fresh, but the service was slow that night, which was a bit disappointing. I loved the dragon roll but felt rushed to eat as other diners were waiting for their tables. I may return during a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakura is a hidden gem! I had the chance to try their variety platter, and it was just an explosion of flavor. The rice was perfectly cooked, and everything was beautifully presented. Plus, the service staff were very engaging which added to the overall pleasant experience. I will definitely tell my friends about this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakura became my go-to place for sushi since I first visited it last month. Their miso soup is heavenly, and I always follow it up with a variety of sushi rolls. The alaskan roll is my current favorite! The atmosphere is so comforting too. It’s great for a casual dinner out. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a reliable sushi restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Sakura a few times now and the consistency in quality is impressive. The sushi is definitely fresh every time. The fried items are also worth a mention—crispy and flavorful. Great staff who are always great at making recommendations. This is my special place for sushi, and I plan to keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm very critical of sushi, having lived in Japan for a few years. I was very impressed by the quality of sushi at Sakura. The fish was incredibly fresh, and it reminded me of the sushi I had in Japan. The pacing of service was excellent, not too fast nor too slow, which allowed us to enjoy each dish gradually. Truly a delightful experience here that makes me want to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)
