Waiter didn't bring us water or refill until we asked. I overheard a man next to us saying that their portions had gotten significantly smaller. Their 2 specialty rolls were decent. Not out of this world but not terrible. If you're craving a lunch special or even good sushi this place isn't it. I personally love sushi oshii in Herndon. Best of luck to yall !

The smoked salmon on the Philly roll was particularly good. The service was outstanding. I will be back.

I have tried this dish before and we actually used the pork as a filling for soft buns with scallions. It was amazing. Another must order for me is the Taiwan style fried chicken. It is honestly one of the best. Crispy, flavorful, and very satisfying. Do not miss the string beans with low salt duck egg as well. The flavor is unique and really good. I really enjoy Taiwanese style cooking. It hits different. The flavors feel cleaner and more balanced, almost like a lighter and healthier take compared to typical Chinese dishes. These dishes definitely keep me coming back.

In addition to the TFC, we also got the string beans with ground pork, and fish filet with chef's special spicy soy bean sauce. I must admit the fish filet taste is a bit interesting.

Service was excellent and prices are a bit high in my opinion. However, the portion does fit the price.

I'm not sure if my hibachi expectations have become too high, or if hibachi is now a lost art. This…read morewas a very mediocre hibachi experience. A lot of the NoVA hibachi spots aren't open for lunch on the weekends. We chose Sakura Grill because it was one of the few that were. We came for a Sunday lunch and it was nearly empty. Service was pleasant, but the hibachi chef did the bare minimum. We started with a couple appetizers - the crab rangoons, takoyaki, and an eel roll. All were satisfactory and brought out quickly, but noticeably absent from the takoyaki were the bonito flakes. I will commend the restaurant for being mindful of dietary restrictions. We had someone in our party who requested no onions in their hibachi, and the chef was able to accommodate without any issues. We also had someone who ordered the vegetable hibachi, and the staff asked whether that diner was a vegetarian and advised that the hibachi meals came with shrimp. Another plus was that they had a sink in the dining area to wash your hands. As for the hibachi presentation, the chef lit the grill on fire, spun the spatulas around at the intro, tossed the egg up and down a few times, did the onion volcano (though poorly executed), and attempted to throw a piece of zucchini into our mouths. There was an option for a sake shot from a squeeze bottle, but we all declined. The chef relied on a few gimmicks - a silly squirt bottle and a clucking rubber chicken. He didn't have a lot of showmanship or pizazz or any wow factor. The chef wasn't very engaging - he might as well have cooked the food in the back kitchen. This was my brother-in-law's first time at a hibachi restaurant, but the lack of razzle-dazzle in the cooking did not impress and left something to be desired. I ordered the filet mignon hibachi. Each hibachi meal comes with a small house salad and hibachi soup (mushroom based broth with fried onions). You can also swap out for the miso soup, if you like. The filet mignon was nice and tender. I could've done with more flavor, but I guess that's what the dipping sauces are for. One of my favorite things about going to a hibachi place is the fried rice. This fried rice was average, and the veggies were also average... everything was average. We were celebrating a birthday and the staff were kind enough to sing happy birthday twice - once from the hibachi chef with the onion volcano and once from the waitstaff with a festive drum and tambourine. I will credit the waitstaff for providing effective service, but the food and hibachi experience were pretty mid overall.

The spicy salmon roll was much better than I expected; the sauce packed a surprising punch. Sashimi was decent. The salmon roll was sadly a letdown; it wasn't even as good as some I've eaten at midrange all you can eat restaurants. Unfortunately, I've had better salmon sushi/sashimi for less money or the same amount in DC and even NYC. For the price and for what I got, although nothing was considered bad, it's just not enough for me to return.

Since it was a weekend, there was no lunch special but we ordered off their regular dinner menu. Food was delicious as always. Our portions were HUGE. Each person had their own take home box. I ordered the teriyaki salmon, with included fresh veggies. My salmon portion made me two meals. We ordered a couple of appetizers ( dumplings and tempura) and they were cooked fresh. After our meal, we were served complimentary mochi and ice cream. Those little bites were just perfect to cleanse the palette.

However, they do a good takeout business, as we noticed several people come in to pick up their orders. Before coming here, we looked at their menu. Thus, we knew what we wanted when we got here. Service was great. The staff here is friendly and efficient. Our server checked on us more than once during our meal. To drink, my husband ordered a Kirin Light beer while I ordered a glass of plum wine. Some Japanese places fill the glass too high, but here, the portion size was reasonable. I ordered "the poke bowl". I chose salmon for my fish. This bowl consists of "Sushi-grade fish topped with vegetables, mixed with poke sauce over a choice of mixed greens or rice". I chose the rice. Before coming here, I looked up "poke sauce." I found a website called "pokebowlny.com." This is the description they gave: "traditional poke sauce blends soy sauce, sesame oil, and often rice vinegar, along with aromatics like garlic and ginger. This classic combination makes the fish taste fresher, the vegetables more vibrant, and the rice more flavorful." The vegetables in the bowl were kernel corn, seaweed salad, and cucumbers. I really enjoyed having this meal! All the flavors worked well together. I look forward to having it again. Along with the poke bowl, a bowl of miso soup is included. That, too, was quite good, and it came to the table quite warm. My husband ordered "Tuna Don," which consists of "fresh tuna sashimi over rice & vegetables. His entrée came with both miso soup and a small side salad. The bowl had a big slice of radish, some seaweed salad, and the usual shredded daikon. The wasabi was really spicy - he could feel it in his nose and sinus cavity - it'll take your head off. The generous portion of tuna was large with thicker slices than he'd ever seen before.
