How is it possible that Akron, Ohio has such a great sushi spot? Crazy, but it's true. I have been dining here since 2003 and I have never had a bad meal! The service is always great. The sushi chefs are working nonstop, but are also friendly. It is usually pretty lively in the restaurant and can be loud at times. It's never been a bother, however. I really like to sit at the sushi bar and watch the chefs at work. The fish is always fresh and better than any other place around. Also, if you are not a fan of sushi and you end up here, you can always order from the ramen menu next-door!

Tonkatsu
Catherine C.

Finding good Asian food in Ohio, especially Akron Ohio, is no easy feat. Although not the worst experience I've had, the food was average to me. I do not love how many restaurants do not use lunch menus on Sundays - this is one of them. Ordered tonkatsu as recommended which came with miso soup. Service was fast.

Pink Lady Roll
Colette W.

Loved this place, the service was VERY fast even though it was busy, the martini was great, and really creative sushi. Mine was definitely top 3 I've ever had. Fair pricing too. Amazing!

Sushi and sashimi Lunch

I don't come very often, due to distance, but this is my favorite place to get sushi. When I went to California on vacation I expected the sushi to be better at the coast - but I still like this place in Ohio more! Prices seem good too. It is dark low-light ambience but that just makes it more special. A large menu item of good bento and more than just sushi. I brought someone from Japan here once and he said while it may not be 100% authentic, he agreed it was good!

Angel roll with spicy crab on the side
Katy D.

Sakura is by far, my favorite sushi spot in the area. It is not fishy and they have a wide selection of options to choose from. I always get the Angel Roll with the spicy Crab on the side, and it never disappoints.

Pepper Tuna 5/5 you can see the freshness!

Shabby looking parking lot, but overlooked it because of the Yelp reviews. The hostess was very friendly & I sat myself at the high top bar on the left of the sushi bar. I asked my very friendly server, Tiffany, about one of the Specialty Drinks, the Wasabi Ginger Martini ($10). She said it was her favorite so I ordered it & it was refreshing w/ only a hint of Wasabi. No lunch specials on Sundays or I would have ordered the Chirashi which was a great deal. The lunch special had 10 pieces for $13.95 & dinner entree had 15 for $18.95, including Miso Soup & salad. Too much food for me so I ordered the Salmon Avocado Roll ($6.25) & Pepper Tuna ($9.25) w/ no smelt & extra ginger, but they charged me $0.50 for extra wasabi. I also ordered a Perrier Water which was $3.25, basically half of a roll. I was going to get a hot green tea, but they didn't have Splenda. Not a problem, but it got pretty pricey in a miscellaneous way. Overall, the food, service & ambience were outstanding. It was $31.23 + $6 tip for one person so if you're on a budget, come on the weekdays for lunch. As I said, the lunch specials look fantastic & half the price. I am on vacation & in Vegas, these prices would be normal to me. Also they have a large Specialty drink list & full bar. Special entrees on a chalkboard, which I wish I saw before I ordered, but next time. I do highly recommend this sushi spot & will be back.

If you want quality sushi for the price, this is probably the place you should consider checking out. Attentive servers with cozy atmosphere. Price is also very reasonable. They also have lunch special for even more affordable price. I recommend you to consider checking this place out if you are nearby!

Large spicy salad
Lisa C.

Had a great time eating here! Sushi was very fresh and there were unique items on the menu. Our server was very attentive. We were checked on frequently, and waters and teas were refilled frequently without having to ask. Enjoyed the spicy crab salad! The crab, shrimp and octopus was on a bed of fresh cucumbers. Yummy! Ate Box B for my entree. Super good! The sushi, California roll and sashimi was very tender. Tasted super fresh too! The presentation seemed to be important here too. The hostess thanked us as we were leaving the restaurant.

I have never been here before and I've known about this place for years so I decided enough is…read moreenough and I decided to give this place a try. I looked up there menu before going there so I could decide what I wanted to get and i decided to order the Torikatsu Ramen which is 鸡排拉面 Fried chicken served w.chicken broth ramen noodle, topped w.scallions, corn, cilantro, broccoli, kikurage mushroom onion and boy can I say it was really delicious and I had a can of diet Pepsi with it. The customer service was amazing as well and they were very helpful and they were extremely quick I ate there and I think I waited maybe 5 minutes for my Ramen. The price of the food is also amazing for my Ramen and diet pepsi it came out to under 15.00. And you get alot of food. The ambiance of the store was decent I think they took over where Jimmy johns used to be at because they are located in between play it again sports and Panera Bread. I did enjoy all of the decor though. Overall this place is amazing and I would definitely recommend this place and will definitely be back.

Mediocre food, great affordable prices for Cuyhoga Falls…read more No frills restaurant experience. Basic seating inside and bathroom is clean. Ramen is very average and same with fried chicken. Broth was not rich in flavor unlike other ramen places. Char siu too fatty for me. Fried chicken was also very greasy unlike tonkotsu should be. I'll update this review when I get a chance to try the curry / don bowls. 3/5 stars for now

The inside was very modern with a decent sized dining area and sushi counter. Their menu is very large with a wide variety of appetizer, sushi, ramen, and hibachi choices. They were also doing a $22 Sunday Special which had a huge portion! The service to start was a bit scattered and we felt a bit pressured to ordered immediately. As time went on, things improved. Our group ended up ordering the Fried Calamari (a bit small of a portion) & Gyoza appetizers which were thoroughly liked by the group. For mains, we ordered a variety of sushi rolls, ramen, and noodle dishes. The Lo Mein style noodle dish had a very large portion and great flavor. The favorite sushi rolls were the Eel & Cucumber, Spicy Crab, and all Specialty rolls. All "spicy" sushi was rather mild. All presentation aspects exceeded my expectations! The staff was kind to bring out a complimentary dessert and sing happy birthday for our guest of honor. This was incredibly kind to make our experience that much better!

Overall: It's so nice to have a quality ramen place in the canton area. The seating area is cute…read moreand not super over crowded. The ramen deal with an appetizer was well priced! I liked how much food you got and how you had a few options to choose from. Food: * pineapple passion mojito - 5/5 absolutely DELICIOUS. It was a perfect drink to have with dinner. It was light and refreshing with just enough sweetness. * chicken and pork bao - 4/5 super yummy! I actually liked the pork more than the chicken. It was almost like a buttery taste. It was soft and the meat just fell apart. The chicken was good too but was more on the tough side, probably because it was fried. * spicy beef ramen - 5/5 I will absolutely be back to get this again. Just the right level of spice. All the ingredients were fresh, well made, and delicious. It's the type of food that you can't help eating more of even though you're beyond full. * crispy chicken ramen - 3.5/5 This was still a good choice! I loved the chicken in it. I think this is a very safe choice for anyone who might be on the more picky side. The broth was good but not spicy. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this place! There are so many options and there is something for everyone to try.

Just to start. I've eaten delicious ramen 5 start in DC and in Thailand. So my review is based on…read morethat. The food was fresh. It warmed up our soul. When getting carried out they packed the ingredients separately from the broth which I loved. We got the spicy on the side and I was so glad we did because in my opinion it packed heat. The spicy is like chili crunch oil . Prices were average , I believe probably on par with other ramen spots . My husband teriyaki tom broth has a delicate thickness to it. We both said both broths felt rushed. They weren't really savory and tasted bland, and underdeveloped. It has a good beginning/starting flavor but should have shimmered longer. Not the best ramen or worst ramen. Simply in the middle. We ordered carry out so I can't speak to the service or overall atmosphere. The restaurant was clean inside and front cashiers were nice! We also ordered the creme brûlée Thai tea it was delicious!!!
