Place is beautiful, the staff doing the hibachi are amazing, what I didn't like is without it being busy the servers kept rushing us to leave. The total came out to $60 I didn't have change so I asked if I could get change after handing them $90 The lady took off, then ignored us, n didn't want to give me my change back. Keep in mind I truly considered myself a VERY fair tipper, n I mean very generous but after that stunt the lady got mad when I asked for my change. Sad in all honesty read more

I ate here today for the first time and I'm planning on coming back. This buffet has an incredible selection of both Chinese food and sushi. Everything looked very clean and my table's drinks came out quickly. Between the quality and the amount of options, it's definitely one of the best buffets I've been to. read more

Sakura Buffet - Variety of sushi from the buffet - Buffets Near Me - Clarion, Pennsylvania

Good food and awesome price. Great atmosphere, awesome wait staff! Very clean. Love it.

Food is inedible. I couldn't find anything I could finish. The food on the buffet was also not up to temp per food safety. Left the restaurant still hungry. read more

Coming from the Boston MA area, there aren't too many places that can make authentic food like that, and the few places I've been living out here can't compare, until I ate at this establishment. We went for a late lunch and it was incredible! Absolutely satisfying for us. The service was great, the waitress was great also. Very clean with the positive vibe of culture. All the foods at the buffet bins were never empty. Hot! Fresh! & delicious! It will be a place that we go again! Bravo! read more

Food was great Variety, excellent, Service was professional while remaining friendly, available , kind, & helpful but not intrusive. Ambiance was clean, comfortable, calming in a delightful manner. read more

Amazing food so much sushi probably gana need to diet after that.all sorts of food for everybody who likes baffet

Staff are very friendly and service is great. 4/5 feels appropriate for the quality of the food. Some items didn't taste super fresh (even at the hibachi) so that's the reason for -1 star. read more

The best Chinese buffet I've ever been to, and very reasonably priced. Stopped with a full coach of travelers and everyone felt the same!

One of the best Chinese buffet I've ever had. Definitely the best in and around Clarion, PA. The food is always fresh and served hot. PPlease note that I can't comment on their sushi of Mongolian stir fry as I just stick to the hot section as well as their salad bar. I recommend this spot for anyone who wants something good for a good price. read more

Best Chinese buffet I've been to. We stopped while traveling, food and service were great!

We like to come here on Friday night. The buffet usually has a few more special items that we don't always see during the week. I like the dishes on the buffet, even though they are predominantly chicken. read more

Good looks ok, prices on their website are wrong. Walked in and saw the prices, walked out. Prices are $7.00 more than on their site. If I could eat $20.09 worth of food I may have tried read more

Pros: huge selection of dishes to try, over multiple buffets; range of cuisines including Cantonese, sushi, American comfort food, dim sum; very spacious interior. Cons: service not friendly, dark, limited choices for vegans or even just people who love seasoned vegetables and tofu. read more

We were passing through PA and stopped here because of the reviews. It did not disappoint! Amazing selection of Chinese, Japanese and American food. Food was very fresh and everything was very clean. Definitely recommend! read more

Sakura Buffet - Buffet area - Buffets Near Me - Clarion, Pennsylvania

There was no craw fish like normal and the food was greasy The service was good they are nice Idk about the ambiance read more

We were road-tripping in the Clarion area and my husband had a hankering for Chinese buffet. We stopped by Sakura on Thursday evening at 8pm thinking we had an hour, but they were closing at 8:30pm. That's an odd close time, so we left and came back Friday evening. Friday was open until 9pm, but prices were higher, $17.99 per person. As a vegetarian, I usually can find a decent variety of food at a Chinese buffet. But not here. Several of the vegetable dishes that are usually vegetarian elsewhere included meat. The mushrooms had pork. The green beans had bacon. Several salads had meat included. It was very slim pickings here for a vegetarian. My husband will eat meat when we are out, and he was underwhelmed with the variety here overall too. Overpriced, foods not maintained entirely well (many were dried out and needed stirring or replacement), limited variety, and humdrum service. We will not return. read more

I don't usually like buffets, but this is an exception. The there were a huge number of choices, mostly Chinese but also sushi and a little American, all very tasty, hot, and not oily. The staff was constantly checking the food trays and also keeping the dining area very clean. I especially liked the crab and shrimp dishes, and the chicken was also high quality. There was no way to taste everything, but the only things I didn't like were a matter of taste, not execution. I don't know how they do it for $17 per person! read more

It was really good and so was the price I would rank as on of the best Chinese buffets I've had in PA. The food was fresh and the place was the cleanest I've seen at a Chinese buffet. I loved the crayfish and wonton soup. Plus easy of and on the interstate was a plus Servers were friendly read more

Delicious Asian buffet! Offerings include a generous salad bar including chilled mussels and fabulous peel & eat shrimp. Large variety of choices on the main buffet: three different soups (best hot & sour soup ever!), honey chicken, pepper shrimp, pork dim sum, pot stickers, broiled fish, steamed clams, fried chicken, Asian green beans, etc. etc. and of course, white rice, fried rice and lo mein - all you can eat and you definitely won't leave hungry! read more

One of the better chinese buffets I have been to. For the Clarion area, it is pretty upscale (design wise) and quality is good. All in all I am a fan and would return. Lots of choices! read more

Great food, Hibachi is the best. Clean restrooms and at a reasonable price. They have sushi, seafood,chicken, dessert and a lot more. Great place read more

$8 for a super solid lunch buffet. Can't beat that. Chinese, Japanese, American and tons of dessert. You can eat as healthy as you like. Or not. Salad, sushi, dim sum, hibachi, soup, seafood, etc... There's literally a crockpot of melted butter with a ladle. Not complaining. read more

We stopped here along our long drive because of the reviews. It did not disappoint. Fresh food on the buffet. The sushi was super delicious. The selection was plentiful. Very clean and good service. read more

food wasn't cooked and mtn dew tasted like water

This is an excellent buffet. Much more than the standard Chinese food items. Fresh and vast choices

More expensive than I would typically pay for carry out Chinese food but it was all very tasty & fresh!

Spot on consistent. I'm not a buffet person, but my kids are. I stopped at this one again passing through Pennsylvania around 5 pm on a Saturday. Everything was hot and I saw the staff rotating stock (not just dumping the old stuff on the new like I've seen elsewhere). The steaks were so tender you didn't need a knife! You could sink your teeth right in. read more

The buffet is very extensive. Everything that you would imagine at a regular Japanese or Chinese buffet. The food was all very good. The service was fast. The place was very clean. I'm going to focus on the hibachi grill. It is set up as part of the buffet. You start at one end of the line and pick a plate and start picking out your raw veggies and noodles. Then you pick out your meat-steak,chicken, crab or shrimp. It's all self-serve take as much as you would like. Then you proceed to the hibachi grill. Hand over your food to the chef (he can cook about four meals at a time) and tell him how you would like it prepared. The whole thing will take probably around five minutes between waiting in line and the food being cooked. It really is fantastic. And totally worth the wait! read more

This place is a hodge-podge of misfit food. While the hibachi is edible, the rest of the buffet is not. I don't know how people eat this stuff. Do yourself a favor and go to taco bell down the road.. I wish I had. read more

Visited the Sakura Buffet the weekend they opened. Very busy at that time (Sunday lunch) but wait was fairly short for eight of us. Server took our soft drink order and we headed to the buffet. Options included: basic choices you might find on any Chinese buffet and soups, salads, sushi bar, hibachi grill, steak, baked ham, ribs, frog legs, fried chicken, pizza, salmon, crab legs, and a full dessert bar. Food quality was very good and staff worked nonstop to keep the buffet stocked. Server cleared our plates and refilled our drinks as needed. A good value for a large variety of foods. We will definitely visit again. read more

Hmmm...dining options in Clarion, for a vegetarian, on a calendar holiday... There were not many, I mean hardly any, vegetarian options on the buffet. My saving grace here was the hibachi bar where you can pick your ingredients and sauce - I got lots of veggies and garlic sauce for my first plate. Added some sriracha, and called it dinner! Really not bad, at all. Second plate got pretty much the same thing, but with the ginger sauce. Less good. The place is weird. Or, I am weird. Buffets are weird? I think my dad would love this place (and I think he is weird too). read more

Great variety of main dishes, salads, sides, but I find the desserts lacking in taste and homemadeness.

If you're used to quality Japanese food, don't bother coming here. The sushi is fair, but everything else is just mediocre at best. My hot tea was bitter, the pork egg rolls had a strange cinnamon-like flavor, and the actual JAPANESE food (seaweed salad, seafood salad, squid, etc) was very lackluster. It was all very Meh. I'm no connoisseur, but I was very unimpressed. Plus, for a buffet, it was very expensive at dinner time. If you're looking for good Chinese food, I'd recommend Hunan King. Sakura tries to take a stab at adding Chinese additions to their Japanese spread, but it misses the mark. I'm glad Clarion is trying to broaden their horizons, but this place just barely does so. We have a long way to go. read more

I just got home from there and I'm lying on my couch, too full to move. This is definitely the most "exotic" place in clarion... Finally. Tonssss of delicious, well made food, for cheap. It was a Thursday night and it was packed. We got seated after about five minutes though. Definitely come eat here. read more

Very clean, great service, decent food. About 24 dollars for 2 people and 2 fountain drinks!

Very pleasantly surprised. Everything is very clean, well lit, properly monitored and filled. The entire family found food they enjoyed and each of us found something that was better than we expected. Very enjoyable and better than similar Restaurants in Chicago - which all look like dumps compared to this place. read more

Pleasantly surprised by the variety and standard of food here and at an affordable price. Thumbs up for the good spread. Only negative is the toilet, it smells and needs maintenance. Else everything seems good. read more

Always fresh and hot! I wish they'd have a little bit more "Chinese" food and less "American"
