" For anyone looking for a lively atmosphere and filling portions, Sakura is the place! The hibachi is fun, but the sushi doesn't live up to what you'd find in more dedicated sushi restaurants. Service has been friendly, though a bit slow at times. Overall, an enjoyable experience but keep your expectations in check. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve had a mix of experiences at Sakura over the years, and recently it seemed to lean towards the negative. The price increased while the flavors became less vibrant. I got a veggie roll that was just bland. Even my salmon felt overcooked. I’m hoping they sort this out because I truly enjoy this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sakura after hearing good things, but I must say I was slightly disappointed. While the menu was extensive, and the ambiance colorful, the flavors seemed diluted. My sushi did not taste as fresh as I expected and the service wasn't particularly attentive. It's a nice place to bring family, but not for those seeking authentic tastes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sakura is a good option for a casual dining experience, but it lacks that special spark for true Japanese cuisine lovers. While the hibachi was fun, the flavors in the sushi rolls felt a bit generic, and some rolls were overly sweet. The service was friendly but a bit slow as well. If you’re looking for a fun night out with large portions, this place fits the bill. " (*Curated Review*)

" Another great outing at Sakura. The portions are still impressively large. Everything about the meal was solid, especially the grilled vegetables. The price might be slightly high, but you're getting what you pay for. I appreciate the creative approach to the menu and will always recommend it to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The last time I visited Sakura was a bit off. The meal had a strange sweetness to both the chicken and the rice, which really took away from what I was expecting. Despite that, the staff was warm and welcoming, making the evening enjoyable. I’ll give them another shot, but I hope it's different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just visited Sakura for my son's birthday, and it was a fantastic experience! The chef was amazing, performing tricks while cooking our meal right in front of us. The food was delicious, especially the teriyaki chicken. Portions were huge, and we left satisfied. This will definitely be our new go-to spot! " (*Curated Review*)
