Checking out Sakura in Livingston, TX.
Rasiel G.

Awesome place! Service was quick & attentive. The place is small but it's no big deal. We came in for a quick bite. Food was delicious & fresh! My steak was soft & tender, flavorful! I ate all my fried rice. My wife had chicken yakisoba, plentiful. I had to help her out.

Shrimp udon

I came here for lunch with my parents on a Sunday after our church service. The service is always fast, the ambiance is decent, and the food is always great! The servers are fast in doing their job. *Thumbs up*. My dad and I ordered chicken and steak hibachi, respectively, while my mom ordered the shrimp udon platter. As for the dessert, we ordered banana tempura with vanilla ice cream for the table! Everything that's on the menu is all good!

I got my order to go. The orange Chicken and steak bento box were very good. It took about 15 minutes for my order so it must have been made fresh. The fried rice that came with the meal was nothing special. I will go back to try their sushi when I have more time. Not many Asian food choices in Livingston so I am sure I will be back.

I will continue to eat at Sakura. My daughter and I always go for lunch after a Doctors visit. The food is super good and service great!

Cooked to perfection!!! Meat was rare like I like it. Great flavor and Service. Highly Recommended

For me, Hibachi salmon and scallops, stir fry, rice, the shaggy dog sushi roll, and the New Orleans roll.

This is my second time visiting here; both now and my first visit were extravagant. There aren't enough words in our current time able to sum up the bursting flavors, long lasting smells, nor great service I have received today. There are very little flaws I am able to find, but few nonetheless. The only thing I can complain about is the rice. It was bland, and didn't anymore than egg in it.

Sushimi

The food and presentation is outstanding. Highly recommend this establishment. Love eating here every time we are in the area. I love the rock and roll and the tempura shrimp. My husband ordered the sashimi assorted 14 piece. Here is a picture. Wow

Seared ahi with edamame
Jewell F.

So yes, there is good Asian cuisine in Texas! Here's a little gem hidden in all places, Livingston! We had a little of the edamame and pepper tuna then had some spicy tuna roll along with the crab and cucumber roll, then dinner! Great portions and we ended up taking half of our main course home with us. However we topped it off with mochi ice cream! yum! Will come again.

Chef's choice sushi and sashimi platter

The fried Korean corn dog satisfied my craving without having to drive to Houston. We came from Jasper and stopped in for dinner. The sushi was decent and the kids steak hibachi was a good serving. It was enough to share between two kids. The Thai tea was good- we just wish they had a boba option. The miso soup and mushroom broth were tasty. Overall the family and I enjoyed the ambiance, quick service, and clean restroom. The AC was so high the kids and I got cold sitting in there. I suggest wearing a light jacket or sweater if you're prone to being cold. My husband who's more hot blooded thought it was perfect temperature lol

This newly opened spot was having a large post-lunch rush as we arrived at 2:30pm. We were sat promptly as was a party of six. Our original appetizer order wasn't available and we selected Shumai as an alternative. It was beautifully presented 20 minutes later. Our order was placed while we waited for its arrival. Our order didn't arrive for another 45 minutes . When it did it was presented as nicely as I've seen and was fresh and satisfying. We ordered the Michu for dessert - both were excellent. Slow service from this new spot will surely improve. Be patient and you'll have a really quality experience.

The food at the Mongolian grill &a sushi bar was really good. At first I didn't know how to order…read morebecause I had never been there before, but the staff was really friendly and showed me how to order. Basically you can either order off of the menu like a normal restaurant, or you can get a bowl and put the ingredients inside and they will cook it for you. Cool idea! I was so tired of eating at chilies and boring places like that. If you need some food that tastes delicious and is fun to eat this is a great place to go. I ordered sushi (California roll). It tasted good and was a good size for the price (I think it was $4.95) also I ordered a bowl with beef, pepper steak, crab, shrimp, and octopus legs and got teriyaki sauce. Very good flavor and great service. I highly recommend this place to people who want good food and a good environment. The lights are low which is nice! Also they have most of the windows closed so you can't see the ugly streets outside which is perfect. Only thing I would change is make the music Chinese or Asian music instead of American music because well most American music these days sucks! Beyoncé and Justin beiber sucks! Asian music while eating Asian food makes food taste better. I have a feeling the people of orange may have requested American music. I'm not from orange so who knows. Thank you staff for the great service and thank you cooks for the great food!

And the way they treat their staff is foul so I don't recommend. Not a relaxing place to unwind and eat.

After countless times coming, I've been meaning to make a review about this place. Everything in…read moretheir menu is something great, with some of my personal favorites being the Homestyle Trio with Eggplant, their Mapo Tofu (off menu, no gatekeeping), their Spicy Chicken Noodle Soup (a wee too spicy for me personally, but I love the simplicity of it), and the General Tso's Chicken. The eggplant dish mentioned is very rich and flavorful, with the eggplant cooked to be soft and almost mushy (but in a good way), nicely complimented by particularly the beef. Their lo mein is a little watery on various occasions, but still maintains a great and very nice flavor. Their fried rice is one of my favorites in the area and is always very well made no matter the time of day. The fried chicken wings, crab puffs, and crab bomber appetizers are both just such standouts in what is often an overlooked part of the menu by many restaurants. I have nothing but praise about how this place handles food. The staff is all really nice and welcoming from entrance to walking out the door. They are very good with order additions or food/allergy restrictions and the dishes always come out in a timely (but not rushed) manner, no matter whether it is a weekday morning or a busy dinner crowd. I'd recommend the lunch special for anyone coming around that time, as the deal of egg rolls, soup, and an entree or 2-3 sushi rolls for a low price is a steal. The ambiance nice for sure and the tables are clean, though I do sometimes get disoriented by the wallpaper they use (I think it's just me though). Whenever this place first opened, I was very disappointed in the restaurant. Meals were salt with a side of meat and rice and was just overall underwhelming. But now, it is one of my family's go to places whenever we need quality food in a short distance. Definitely worth a try, even over other restaurants in the area that serve a similar menu.

My husband and I visited Asian Fusion for lunch. The place is clean and inviting, and the staff was…read morefriendly and attentive. They also have some great lunch options. We started with the Pan‑Fried Pork Dumplings, delicious and surprisingly filling. For mains, we ordered the House Special Lo Mein and a Lunch Special that came with egg drop soup, fried rice, Szechuan shredded beef, and an egg roll. The soup was flavorful, thick, and nicely eggy. The fried rice was good, and the beef was tender and savory. The egg roll was also really good. The House Special Lo Mein, though, wasn't our favorite. The texture felt off, and the meat was colder than the noodles, so we couldn't really eat it. For a Chinese restaurant, the House Lo Mein is an important dish to get right. Overall, some hits and some misses.

There's a separate menu page dedicated to their new broth selections including Tom Yum, Golden Chicken, Spicy Miso and so much more. They've also introduced new hot items such as Soup Dumplings, Hargau, Siu Mai, and Tempura. These small bites were perfect palate changer between rounds of hot pot. The cuts of meat for hot pot were incredibly tender and the wagyu offered was beautifully marbled. Although each slice was generously cut, they were easy to split and share with the table. One of the highlights was the self-served shaved ice machine, a refreshing and sweet treat to perfectly end the meal. Prime Beef Shabu is currently one of my favorite places to get Hot Pot. The restaurant is clean , efficient, and ideal for enjoying a family styled dinner with loved ones.

We checked in and were told the wait without a reservation for 4 would be 20 minutes but they actually seated us in about 5. Seating capacity is 98. They took our order quickly and the meats came out fast. Just in case, there are items that cost extra like the wagyu. I had the house spicy broth. I thought it was pretty good and not too spicy for me but the wife was choking with the spiciness. We normally get 3 rounds of meat at kpot but we only went through 1 round here because the serving portions are larger. I was asked about or inquire about the "member price" shown on the menu. The wait staff came by frequently to clear plates and trash.
