" Sakura is a burger joint dressed as a sushi place. I’ve been to many sushi places across the states, and this was the first one that didn’t cut it. The sushi rice was overly sweet, and the rolls lacked the finesse you typically find. The service was just okay, though the atmosphere was bright and lively. I won't be returning after this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love going to Sakura! The sushi is always fresh, and the rolls are beautifully presented. The atmosphere is casual yet intimate, making it perfect for date nights or casual dinners with friends. I particularly recommend their spicy tuna rolls; they are the best in town. I've also tried the hibachi dishes, which are flavorful and cooked just right. The only downside is sometimes the service can feel a bit rushed when they get busy, but overall I'm very satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakura is a great little gem in the middle of town! Their rice and sushi offerings are fresh and satisfying. The rolls are packed with fish and flavor. I will say that the service can be a bit slow during dinner hours, so it's best to visit during off-peak times for a quicker experience. Apart from that, I thoroughly enjoy every meal I have there, and the price is just right too! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakura has become one of my favorite spots for Japanese food in the area! The atmosphere is cozy, and the food never disappoints. I particularly love their spicy tuna rolls which have this incredible kick! The staff are attentive and friendly, and it’s a great place to unwind after a busy day. I recommend giving it a shot if you enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakura is a great spot for a quick bite! I love their combination platters; I can mix and match. The portions are generous for the price, something that is hard to come by these days. My only complaint is the inconsistent service. Sometimes the staff is spot on, and other times, they seem a bit frazzled. Overall, the experience is enjoyable, and I keep returning for the affordability and the flavorful dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family has been visiting Sakura for years, and we’ve always enjoyed it. The waitstaff is consistent and friendly, and the food is generally good. However, I noticed that the last few visits, I've had sushi that wasn't as fresh as I expected, and there were times when my orders were mixed up. While I still love their vegetable tempura and don’t plan on stopping my visits, I hope they improve on consistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing many good reviews about Sakura, I finally visited last week. The atmosphere was pleasant and inviting. I decided to try the hibachi grill, but I was a little shocked at how bland the food was. The portions were decent, but the flavors were not what I expected from a Japanese restaurant. On the other hand, the sushi rolls were well done. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but the service was excellent, so I might give it another shot someday. " (*Curated Review*)
