This place is Bommmmmbbbb. The sushi is actually mad real yo this place is lit. They gave us a ton of sushi and their sushi is so good we got like 8 boats of sushi read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. This place was cool when I first moved here. Ever since, it's been a slow but steady decline. First, the service started to suck. Which doesn't surprise me, service sucks everywhere around here. But this shortly reached a new level of suck. I'll get to that later though. While the waitstaff became more and more surly and eager to rush you out the door, I guess there was an ownership change or something, because the last time I went, the menu was totally different - first, we noticed the allergy warnings and cheerfully thought, oh, okay. They didn't raise their prices like we thought. WRONG. They changed their prices, most notably for the vegan / veggie rolls (and took away some options). Okay, fine. Overhead is increasing, we get it. Then, I ordered the Futo Maki roll. What I received was literally half the size of what I was expecting and had ordered in the past, but at the same price. Then, since I was still (unexpectedly) hungry, I ordered a yellowtail roll. Again, half the size of what I was expecting, which is fine because I don't expect sushi to be gigantic anyway, but I'm pretty sure what I got wasn't even yellowtail. It was chopped, and whatever it was tasted strange, like they took the fatty parts of some other white fish, mixed it with scallion and passed it off as yellowtail. YUCK. The icing on top of the whole shitcake - my friend and I tried to order another round of free sake (which we were 100% entitled to as that is their policy) and were told, LOUDLY and RUDELY, by one of the waitresses that people were "waiting for our table" and that she had been expecting us to leave. When I tried to explain to her we had been trying to get someone's attention pretty much the entire time we were there, she proceeded to yell at us that she was "in the back" and didn't notice - and when I say yell, I mean she literally got IRATE with us. When she realized we weren't going to give up our table, she stormed off to get more sake, then came back and SLAMMED it on to the table. On my way out the door, I shouted "I'm going to Sapporo next time" loud enough for everyone to hear, including that c*nt that got loud with us. I'll be goddamned if I ever set foot in this place again. read more

The food is up and down. Sometimes it's well prepared and a full portion and other times it's not as good and not as full. Otherwise the food is generally good and fresh. read more

Delicious vegetarian sushi options (AAQ: Asparagus, Avocado, and Cuke; sweet potato, etc.) Last time I ate here, one of the employees flipped out on a poor old homeless man and created a huge scene. We all have bad days though I guess. read more

Horrible delivery service. Their delivery time estimate it always off. But last time it was ridiculous. Got my order and hour and half later- quoted 30-40min. And when I called looking for it they just said they are very busy need more time. Like What?!! read more

Delicious rolls, try the Tiffany roll and ask for the spicy mayo dip. It's delicious.

I had such an awful experience with the person (Cashier?) that picked up the phone that I felt compelled to leave them this review! Called them during lunch time to place order for 3 lunches. After I hung up, I realized the prices were way higher than what I expected, and called them back to double check, and make sure my order was off the lunch special, and not the regular prices, and this is where the Cashier got extremely rude with me. I asked him if my order was off the lunch special, and he said "no! you didn't say lunch special so its the regular menu!" So I said, "oh.. okay, can you please switch it to the lunch menu?" and I got this response "NO! Its too late! The order is already done!" I, calmly said "Sir, there is no need to raise your voice and yell at me.." and he said "I am not yelling!! It's very busy here! Cannot change!!" Then I said, "Okay, then what if I want to cancel?" Him: "You want cancel?? Then I will cancel the order!!" Me: "So, I cannot change the order, but I can cancel the order? Then I'll just cancel, and make another another under the Lunch Special price" Him: "No! If you cancel, then NO ORDER!! SO?? CANCEL OR NOT??" Me: "Can I please speak to your manager?" Him: "NO! No manager here!! You want the noodles or not???" Me: "Okay, I'll keep the order. 45 minutes right?" Him: "Yes. Bye!!" The noodles arrived in an hour and 15 minutes. If he had been nicer, I wouldn't even had been as upset and would leave the order as-is. Besides, shouldn't it be his job to make sure whether or not any orders placed during lunch time is for the lunch special pricing? Side note, they did not put in the free California roll as advertised on the menu for orders over $35 (which they used to do). Our order came to over $45. We used to love ordering from this restaurant because the prices were fair and the employees were generally friendly. From time to time, we would place big orders for the company. However, after this experience, we'll be order our lunches from elsewhere. read more

Sushi average. Very annoyed however because even asking in my online order for low sodium soy my order comes with NONE. Who eats sushi without soy. When I called to tell them and ask them (2mins after order arrived). I was told it would be 20 mins. Really. Definitely not impressed. read more

Stopped by here a few days ago and I ordered sushi for to go. The sushi was fresh and the lady with the glasses behind the cashier was very nice and helped me with my order. She recommended me to try the black dragon roll and glad I tried it!! The black dragon roll was soo good! Can't wait to try other things from this place. I found my sushi place to go now! read more

After being poisoned by a sushi place in Toronto, I took a 5 year-long break from the stuff. I ended that break at Sakura 6 and it was well worth it. Affordable, tasty, diverse, and the cream cheese and smoked salmon rolls! Oh man. Great, attentive service as well. read more

Best shrimp fried rice with miso soup on Manhattan Ave. good prices for lunch as well. Friendly staff.

I love this place! Vincent and his staff are the sweetest and most accommodating! Came here first time in December 2012 with a group of fifteen 22 year olds for a birthday because a neighbor mentioned they take reservations and were good about groups which were my only requirements this night. To say we were loud is an understatement. We have been back with large groups at least 6 other times and they are always the nicest and most accommodating, greeting us by name, letting us do sake bombs, and take up half the restaurant on Saturday nights. Free sake with meals is the best deal in town and the food is actually very good and reasonably priced. Vegetable gyoza, spicy fried rice, and oishi roll are my go tos. A neighborhood favorite. I love how Vincent will come around and chill drinking sake with us as well haha what a great guy. Can't wait to go back for our next big party. Thanks for the amazing times Sakura - you rock! read more

This had been my neighborhood go-to spot for over three years, over which I have witnessed their steady decline into a restaurant no longer worth visiting. Their yellowtail roll used to be one of my favorites, and is now chopped red snapper passed off as yellowtail. Their spicy tuna roll is so full of tempura crunch that you can taste only that. Even if you ask for "no crunch," the fish is so finely chopped that it is just spicy mayo mush with very little fish. I have hope that they may return to their former quality, as they used to be the best sushi restaurant in Greenpoint and now seem to be trying to cut costs. PEOPLE WILL PAY MORE FOR HIGHER QUALITY FISH!! read more

#Sakura6 #tiny #cockroaches #seaweed #salad in Greenpoint BK - USE to be my "go to" Japanese restaurant. My husband and I ordered take out on #seamless, when the food arrived, I started unpacking and in doing so, I noticed tiny cockroaches in my seaweed salad. We were completely grossed out and disturbed. We immediately called the restaurant, the abrupt lady answering the phones was so rude to us. We wanted a full refund on our meal and offered for them to come and pick up everything. All she would do is send us a new seaweed salad and said "if we have a problem call seamless because that's where we ordered". She didn't apologize, showed absolutely no concern even when I said I have photos. I was shocked that a business representative could treat a loyal customer this way - we would order from Sakura 6 at least 4 times a month. Thank god for seamless, I called to explain the situation - within 20mins I got a full refund of $44.70 (after they spoke to the Sakura6) and because seamless felt so bad for us they gave us an additional $10 off our next meal. #seamlessisthebest read more

Sakura 6 - #Sakura6 #tiny #cockroaches #seaweed #salad in Greenpoint USE to be my "go to" Japanese restaurant #gross - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Their $10 sushi and unlimited sake deal is unbeatable, especially since the sushi is actually really good. The service has always been impeccable. Highly recommend! read more

Definitely the best sushi/Japanese in the Greenpoint area by far. Their delivery is prompt and friendly, as in takeout. But unlike most such restaurants, I actually enjoying eating IN there. The 3 roll combo is a great deal and my go-to. The hibachi chicken is also delicious. And their veggie dumplings make me happy. read more

I've never been let down here! I must confess that I really only come for the spicy beef udon/soba noodle soup on cold winter nights combined with hot sake, but I have on occasion had other things, all good. The service is pretty much the same every time, just right. The mood set with John Teshian zither and flute music coupled with the moving delicate laser light show on stone with a faint sound of babbling brook is unparalleled in the neighborhood, and all its own. Some may think it's cheesy, like the name, but Greenpoint would be a lesser place without it. read more

Have only had a few rolls here (to go). Fish was fresh with the right amount of spiciness. Perfect rice-to-fish proportion. Very friendly staff and quick for carry-out. Definitely will come back for a sit-down dinner soon!!! read more

Best sushi in Greenpoint. Fish is always fresh, service is fast and this is a real family run joint. Love it.

Free hot sake, super attentive service, and awesome food. The ambiance is whatever but if you drink enough sake it doesn't really matter.

Well done. An incredibly reliable Sushi spot that made me forget Wasabi ever existed. I've never had a bad meal here and their sake and beer selection is thorough. The staff is attentive without being annoying. The chefs are dedicated and intelligent. The music is wonderful and inspires deep contemplative discussion. My one suggestion would be to dampen the racket that starts to swell when more than four tables are active. It's nearly impossible to have dinner here when it's packed - which is often. The establishment might lose in daily sales numbers by taking out six or seven tables and installing booths or private booths on the right side - but I think they would gain in creating a much more enjoyable dining experience. When it's packed at night, everyone is screaming and it sounds and feels like a high school cafeteria. I suppose that's where the bottomless sake comes in. Though, i would not recommend the free sake - it's bound to give you heartburn as the quality seems very low. I'm always suspicious of sake that 'they' refuse to serve cold. read more

We ordered rolls for delivery. I had hives for a week afterward. It happened right after I ate the sushi, so I concluded that it was caused by the fish. Although the food tasted good, I won't risk having hives again. read more

The BEST sushi in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Freshest fish. Delivery takes a while but that's b/c they are ALWAYS SO BUSY during dinner hours. Fantastic fish. Much better than any other sushi place on Manhattan Avenue. A+ Romantic for when you dine there plus FREE HOT SAKE with a dinner order when dining in the restaurant. WINNING!!! read more

This place is Bangin'!! Super fresh! Probably the best sushi I have had in brooklyn! I'm from CA originally so my sushi standards are pretty high! read more

LOVE the free sake LOVE the sushi LOVE that it's about 10 steps from my apartment LOVE the hostess (maggie!!) ....Maggie is really so nice though, mainly the reason why I keep coming back. She even knows me by name now :) Why aren't there more genuinely friendly and lovely people like her in the world! read more

This place is great. It's not the best Japanese food I've ever had, but it is good, pretty affordable, and very convenient. For the record, as a strict vegetarian I've only had the veggie dishes, never any meat (including fish). According to many people I've gone there with who do eat meat, though, it's very good, and I can definitely attest to the quality of the vegetable dishes. The atmosphere is also really nice. All in all, it's a really nice neighborhood restaurant. read more

I have always ordered from Sakura for lunch, and I would usually order their Lunch Bento Box special - Chicken Teriyaki. During most times, their chicken teriyaki is delicious! But there are also times when the chicken is very dry and the taste of soy sauce is overwhelming. Today I ordered Dunbori Chicken. It was gross. The taste is mostly that of soy sauce. It tasted the same as what I would usually get at those crappy chinese restaurant. As for their customer service, the ladies have been very nice and at most times funny - they would usually try to get what I would order since I order the same thing almost all the time LOL read more

Awful, awful place! I decided to order for pick-up despite all those bad reviews that came up recently. Oyakodon is a really simple dish that is hard to mess up, since it's basically some chicken with eggs over rice. I had it hundreds of times while living in Japan and even at the cheapest places it was quite good. What I got was far away from what I expected. Most of the chicken was so raw that I could not eat it and it smelled horribly fishy. It was just disgusting. Believe me, I'm not picky with food and this is the first review I write but the experience was just SO bad!! Got some Gyoza as well which were burned though okay. And it's not a legit Japanese place since it's run by Chinese people, at least the grumpy lady at the counter was. But then, that's the case for most of the cheaper Japanese restaurants. read more

Tried to get a delivery from this place. After an hour we called them and they told us they hadn't gotten our order through Seamless. But then someone else told us that they are not taking Seamless orders because they are so busy. Then I received a confirmation from Seamless so I called them again. Told them they should have canceled the order. But they said they hadn't received our order... they have serious issues. Never again. read more

not bad, not great. if there were a way to give 2.5 stars i would. shrimp shumai seem from a package and microwaved. rolls are small. sushi seems fresh but nothing really standout about this place except FREE HOT SAKE. also an extensive beer selection. it's not terrible, but i wouldn't go out of my way for it. except for the UNLIMITED FREE HOT SAKE. read more

This is a totally average but acceptable Japanese place. They're chicken Katsu curry sucks but everything else on the menu is good.

Food is fresh and yummy. Staff is very polite & attentive. Free bottomless saki. Love this place

Trying Japanese food at Greenpoint instead of Polish food for a change was definitely a good idea. It was a pretty cozy atmosphere; my chicken teriyaki came sizzling to me, and the taste did not let me down either. Our waitress was friendly, which is always a plus of course, and the food was delivered pretty quickly, which I loved. read more

The Sakura Roll is delicious! If you dine in, you get free hot sake with your meal. I also like that Hitachino beer with the owl on it. pretty good all around. i have gone all out in this place a few times. Good veggie gyoza, Agadashi Tofu, spicy ramen soup, bento box, and sushi. My favorite Greenpoint Japanese spot. read more

meh. whoever recommended the tofu teriyaki...why would you lead me astray?!? the tofu was too soft and turned to mush in the syrupy sauce (should've used extra firm tofu). the appetizer of super-salty miso soup broth (barely any tofu or seaweed) definitely foreshadowed my sub-mediocre dining experience here. BUT who knows....maybe their sushi really is great?? p.s. i wasn't even offered the free sake everyone on here goes on and on about :( read more

I stopped by Sakura 6 long ago for lunch and was disappointed to discover that the "shrimp" served is imitation Surimi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surimi). read more

This has easily become my favorite restaurant in Greenpoint. I come here entirely too often (at least once a week - for the past two years..) and I don't have a single complaint. The tofu teriyaki is super good, as is the tiffany roll (never had it, everyone I've ever taken here approves though). And it's really a great value for the quality and service. So lucky to have it on my block. read more

Love this place. Always fresh. I'm the none sushi eater and everything I ate from here was always good. My husband loves there sushi, everything is fresh, fast and decent priced. Delivery is always fast and dine in is great too. Servers are super nice and helpful. read more

Not the best Japanese food but for being a five minute walk away from me, it gets the job done. Free sake (not just one cup...like a lot), really good gyoza. Boyfriend said his eel was really chewy and bad and my chicken shokayaki was pretty decent. I feel like this is the kind of place that really defines what a 3-star Yelp review is. read more

Stopped in for a beer on a hot day and they have an interesting selection of obscure Japanese and Okinawan beer.
