The coy fish tank and sit up bar with all the little details make you feel like you're in a ramen bar in Japan. I ordered the mocha boba tea and really enjoyed it along side my pork bahn mi, the grilled pork did really well with the crisp pickled vegetables, fresh herbs, and toasty French bread. Wasn't a huge fan of the spring roll, they were served Luke warm, I like the vermincili noodles cold. I would like to come back and try the extensive ramen menu, we just weren't in a hot broth mood this time.

Well, life in Marion just got a whole lot better! We had dinner at Sakura a couple of weeks ago and have since returned two more times. I had the pho which is a traditional Vietnamese soup. The broth was excellent and the version I got had brisket and eye of round, it was delicious! My wife got the vermicelli and said it was authentic. We also had egg rolls which were also delicious! We haven't tried the Ramen but will eventually get around to it I'm sure. I highly recommend Sakura as the staff is friendly and the food is delicious!

I wrote a meager review about this place back in May of 2022, and my opinion of it has drastically…read morechanged. After Covid, they opened back up the dining room and it looks great. Simply just opening some blinds does wonders for it; it looks way better than it did two years ago, but they had a valid reason to shut it down- to protect the customers and employees inside. The dining room also has television, now. Normally, restaurants will have at least one cashier, but this one usually has two on the job, which makes business run by smoother. They are always friendly, which really makes you feel at home. Wait times are average considering that most of what is on the menu has to be cooked. The quality of the food is excellent, and is always hot. The pricing is appropriate when you take the value of the food and its ingredients into consideration. In conclusion, this is a great place to dine at, and I am proud to admit that I have eaten here a lot now in the past year.

It's Bourbon Thyme is a fantastic cocktail that paired really well with every item we ate too. We started with the wedge salad, which had. A lovely ginger dressing. The Tuna Tataki is a must, really nice rolled slices or raw tuna with the peppers and the ponzu sauce, truly amazing. The shishito peppers were wonderful and nicely charred with a great dipping sauce. The seabass may have been the tastiest item, the butter sauce and roasted lemon sauce was exceptional. We finished up with the carrots and bbq ribs, which were crispy on the outside but tender as you bit into the rib meat. Service was stellar as expected for any Michelin rated restaurant. I'm def coming back here soon, the bar looks nice and they have nice Ramen bowls and other items I want to try.
