" Meal at Sakura was decent but not memorable. The staff were friendly, but our table waited a long time for the food. The spicy tuna roll was okay, but I feel it lacked authenticity. I've been to better sushi places in town. I may come back if I hear improved reviews from friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sakura on a busy Saturday for lunch, and while the food was good, the service was a bit slow. I had the nigiri and some rolls. The fish was fresh, but I felt the rolls could have had a bit more filling. Overall, it was decent, but I've had better sushi elsewhere. Would still give it another shot though! " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to check out Sakura after hearing great things, and it did not disappoint! The sushi and sashimi were fresh, and the menu had plenty of authentic options. I particularly enjoyed the friendly staff and the cozy atmosphere. I’ll certainly be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" What can I say? Truly one of the best sushi places I have ever visited! The sushi rolls were so fresh and delicious that I was blown away. I tried the chirashi, and it was art on a plate. The quality of the fish was superb. The service was excellent as well, very attentive but not intrusive. I can’t recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch at Sakura, and I was pleased! The sushi I ordered was well made and tasted fresh. The ambiance was nice, perfect for a casual meal. However, I found the prices to be on the higher side compared to other sushi spots I’ve been to. Overall, worth trying if you're in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first time at Sakura and I loved it! The atmosphere was perfect for a date night, calm and intimate. I ordered a spicy ramen and a side of dumplings. The ramen was rich with flavor, while the dumplings were a perfect appetizer. The prices were average for a nice Japanese restaurant, and I would love to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakura is very much in the vein of sushi restaurants I’ve been to. It's nice, but the innovation in their sushi offerings was somewhat lacking. While I enjoyed my meal, it didn’t stand out compared to others I’ve tried in the past. Still a decent option if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)
