Employees and owner are stank and rude. Bad attitudes all around and they hang up on their customers.

This is one of hubbys and my favorite lunch spots. We have been coming here for a while. I like the consistency with the food, I always get the steak cooked medium. Hubbs gets the same and we will throw in pork dumplings and a spicy tuna roll every now and again but I will always get the steak. I like that you can serve your own sauce. Parking can be gross depending on when you go. read more

Sakura - Steak cooked medium with veggies and rice - Japanese Near Me - Anderson, South Carolina

Their sushi is so good!! So affordable too, I definitely recommend!! Especially recommend the sushi roll!

The food is delicious. The tempura was crispy and light for the batter. The shrimp was sweet. They give you a choice of sauces, but you have to ask for them. The "teriyaki"sauce was not your typical flavor. It was a bit sweet with a hint of vinegar. The hibachi rice was simple nothing added to it which was great! Thee hibachi shrimp had a sweetness to it. Cooked just right and the hibachi steak was tender with broccoli vegetables sautéed in teriyaki sauce. The tempura vegetables were Broccoli, onion rings and large carrot ring and zucchini. Crispy tempura veggie were fresh. The prices are comparable. Sit in or take out. Clean restaurant and bathrooms.Nice People working there. read more

After our college tour, we met our daughter's friend here for lunch. It was easy to find and plenty of parking. The lunch bowls were the perfect size and price. My favorite was the white sauce. I could drink that stuff straight out of the little cups. Would definitely stop by again next time we are in the area. read more

Sakura - Chicken and rice bowl - Japanese Near Me - Anderson, South Carolina

See all

I tried this place for the first time since I've been living in Anderson. Everything went great. It was after lunchtime and before dinner do the restaurant wasn't busy. I ordered my food to go and didnt have to wait long to get it. I ordered the chicken hibachi and everything was really good. I have been missing going to Myabi Express in Easley but they closed about 3 years ago. I've been trying to find another Japanese restaurant that serves food like Myabi but no other restaurant has the same experience and the food at Myabi was always top notch. This restaurant comes very close but although it isn't the same, I think I will be back. They advertise that they have filet steak but when I asked about what kind of steak it was the server and the cashier didn't know. I asked if it was filet mignon but was told it was not. That was one of the things I loved to get at Myabi Express. I understand it costs more, but I'm willing to pay more to get it. read more

Love this place!!! Food was great. I absolutely LOVED the chicken dumplings and the white sauce was my favorite

A quick eat with affordable food. They actually advertise a $1 "Sakura sushi roll" but I was too scared to try it. Some of the food was so cheap that it made me nervous thinking about what I was actually eating. All-in-all, I got a sushi roll & crab Rangoon. Both were surprisingly good. I also tried my friends chicken hibachi & it had good flavor too. Not a bad choice for average Japanese food. read more

Great little place for takeout hibachi. Yes, ordering can be difficult and the parking lot is small, but they do a lot of volume out of this little store. As with all places post COVID, check your order before you leave, and be courteous to the people still choosing to work. read more

Great food, fresh and good quality. We get take out. The bowls are very good. The entrance and the steps take to conform to COVID world make the restaurant not welcoming. But the food is good. read more

I like to eat here on my lunch break. The lady could not hear me through the plexiglass. She took my order wrong and I didn't not notice until I got back to work. I called and they let me know the best they could do would be to give me a side of vegetables, if I come back the same day. So, I am having to pick out all the zucchini and did not receive any veggies. I'm not really a picky person, but I would have preferred for them to remake it for me to pick up. I'd have cold chicken and hot veggies. I actually like their food though. My thing is if I should get what I paid and asked for. I did also leave a tip too. Just not satisfied with the customer service for this issue. I will make sure I check every time from now on. read more

Yummy in our tummies :) The best Japanese food ever! My kids love! My husband loves it and i most definitely love it!! read more

Glad they are back in business. Plexiglass was installed for new normal. Same food quality and quick service!

Happy to have found my new go-to place for Japanese in Anderson. Great sushi and hibachi.

Fast, good food. Not cheap. And, don't come 30-45 min before closing because they are already cleaning up.

I have been coming to Sakura for almost 10 years. This is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Anderson. It is well priced, and I've never had a bad meal here. I definitely recommend stopping here if you are driving along East Greenville Street! read more

Good Japanese hibachi place. Sushi is also good and prices are pretty standard for Japanese takeout places.

Great hibachi, and sushi. Prices are decent and service is fast! One night I called right at closing hoping to grab dinner, and they agreed to take my order - and it was delicious, not leftovers. So thanks!! We love their hibachi takeout, as well as the cucumber roll and tempura rolls. read more

Great food, great quality and good service! We usually order take out. Stinks they are closed on Saturday but I respect their choice to prioritize life over money! read more

Unfortunately, my experience this visit wasn't pleasant. The service was great, but the food was cold, the chicken tasted like it had been precooked, then reheated. Also included gristle. Maybe it was just an off night? An employee was eating and drinking near the cooking station.. read more

I love this place! If you're looking for sea scallops this is the place to go. I come from New England so I know about seafood! You won't find any better in the fanciest restaurants. I get the teriyaki sauce scallops with veggies and only one scoop of rice instead of two. YUM! read more

I frequent this restaurant at least five times a week...but not anymore! I was just in there and was charged .20 cents for a small cup of water. I just happened to notice this because I was in yesterday and my order was the same but cost me more today. I have never been charged for water in this restaurant and when I questioned the cashier she stated " sometimes we do ...sometimes we dont ". I asked what made her charge me and she stated " I dont know" The manager or ( owner) was present and seemed to find humor in our conversation. There is an old saying and I'll tone it down for Yelp " screw me ?......no screw you". And needless to say you've lost my business as well as all of my Family and Friends who dont like to be overcharged either. read more

Been coming here since they first opened. Sad they aren't open on Saturdays. But I understand people need to take a day off. The couple that works there is really nice. read more

Good Food for the price, I ordered the Hibachi Steak and Shrimp, I got home and opened the box and found Hibachi Steak and Chicken. The chicken was good, however, next time I will look before I leave to make sure I received what I requested. read more

Food is always great and fairly quick. If you go at lunch on a weekday then you should expect long wait times as the line is sometimes to the door. Recommend to go orders if you are in a rush but you still have to wait in line to pick this up which defeats the purpose. All in all definitely give Sakura a try. read more

great food, very decent price. I had the Hibachi chicken and it was very good, fast and friendly service!

The hibachi chicken is very good. Not too long of a wait unless it's on a Sunday. Only real problem is too little food for the money. Restaurant is always clean and staff could be a little more friendly. read more

Pretty good, its perfect if you're trying to eat healthy, just swap the rice with more veggies for no upcharge, been eating there a long time, the shrimp sauce is great, but watch the chicken, if a piece looks a little undercooked, don't eat that piece, but otherwise read more

Chicken was dry and small portions for the price. Fried calamari was so over cooked it was inedible.

Love the food! The service is terrible. I don't think I've ever come in to a welcoming staff member.

We ordered four meals there yesterday.Most food was good. However, my son was the only one to get the Crab Rangoon. He was vomiting all last night from it. However, the shrimp and steak meals had no problems. read more

I went with my friend to have lunch. I ordered shrimp tempura with a side of eel sauce, a house salad and a medium drink. The cashier forgot to give me my cup at first and I had to ask for it. Then when my number was called I went up to get my food. Only the tempura was ready and I was told they were cutting lettuce for my salad. I was really disappointed in the presentation of the food but I decided to give it a try anyways. After one bite I decided the food was awful. The batter on the shrimp was the exactly the same as what you would get on McDonald's chicken nuggets and the eel sauce tasted like reduced soy sauce. I went to the counter to tell the cashier I didn't like the food and wanted my money back. He went to get the manager and I was told I could not have a refund no matter the reason because the shrimp was already cooked. I didn't argue and went to sit down and wait on my salad. When that came out I took a bite of it and the lettuce was room temperature. I threw my food out a decided I wouldn't be back. I wouldn't recommend this "restaurant" to anyone. Don't waste your money. read more

Great food at a very good price! I've gone here several times and I've never been disappointed. I usually get the hibachi chicken with broccoli and rice with a Philly roll and crab Rangoon and I love it! There's plenty of food so I almost always have leftovers to eat a little later. I've also tried their spring rolls and they are always fresh and crispy! I definitely recommend this restaurant because everything I've tried there is always fresh and very flavorful! The staff is also very friendly and patient if it is your first time, and typically don't have to wait longer than 5 minutes for your meal. I'm a college student so this is a great "fast food" alternative as opposed to other restaurants that are similar. I'd recommend this place to anybody! read more
