    This night I felt like some Asian food and one of my favorites is Sakura. As you enter you're greeted by the hostess and taken to your table. On this particular occasion the person that took our order was Jennifer, a very kind and attentive person. She took our order and checked on us periodically, she's very good at her job. The place is adequate in regard to seating, a larger group might need to wait a bit so they can accommodate you. Now the most important thing is; the food. You have a variety of options from fried rice to noodles and other dishes, they also offer a good variety of sushi's crafted to your liking. On this occasion I chose Hibachi Steak, the order comes with fried rice steamed vegetables and a side salad with Miso soup. The hibachi steak was absolutely delicious cooked just as you prefer, the teriyaki sauce brought a great kick and a delicious flavor to the meat. The soup was good as well as the salad which you can choose ranch or a ginger dressing. The vegetables and fried rice complemented the meal just right. Overall this a great option for Asian cuisine. It's one I recommend if you're in the area.

    We always love coming to Sakura! It's our favorite sushi place but they also have other delicious entree options. Everything is always so fresh and hot. Service is always on point! Their bento box options come with a little bit of everything so you don't feel like you're missing out! The tempura veggies were nice and crisp.

    Decided to go here for a late birthday dinner. It was a very relaxing atmosphere, quiet, clean, and a chill vibe all around. Our host sat us quickly. Our server was friendly and sweet. She didn't check on us often like I'm used to. She only came to us when we called her. I also didn't get her name because she didn't really speak, but all in all, she was nice. Our food was hot and made fast and it was so good! My soup was tasty, and my salad was good. The egg rolls were AMAZING! My steak was very chewy and hard to eat, but its flavor was good. My fiance got sushi, and he loved it!

    This is an unsuspecting sushi place - doesn't look like too much from the outside (in the same parking lot as H‑E‑B, next to the dentist) but the prices are great, decent menu options, and the sushi is amazing! Came here on a Sunday afternoon around 3pm and wasn't expecting many people inside but it ended up filling pretty quickly. Was seated right away but just a note, the floors are a bit slippery as there looked to be some powder or water under the table and I almost slid under when sitting. I feel that it is rare when I see hand rolls on a sushi menu as they are usually a special item off the menu but this place has them and at a great price! It looks like most of the rolls you can order as a hand roll. I ordered the spicy salmon and the baby green dragon hand rolls, jalapeño white tuna roll, and crazy yellowtail. - spicy salmon hand roll: good ratio of fish to rice, lots of spicy mayo and avocado. Yum! Could use a bit less of the spicy Mayo but that is my preference. - baby green dragon hand roll: I LOVEEEE seaweed salad and I will almost always order the roll if I see that it is topped with seaweed salad. I tried it as a hand roll this time and it did not disappoint! The snow crab was flavorful and was nicely enhanced by the cucumber and avocado without being overpowering. - Jalapeño white tuna: simple and classic roll with white tuna and diced jalapeños. The jalapeños were flavorful without setting your mouth on fire. - crazy yellowtail: wow, you definitely get your money's worth on this roll. There are 12 pieces! It was a refreshing roll with the cucumber and there were even some extra generously sized jalapeño slices. This was just the sushi spot I have been searching for after moving to the New Braunfels area - local spot with fresh fish, great menu, and decent prices! Can't wait to stop by again!

    The food is delicious, however the server had no clue on stunts of meals. One gave my dads order to the other table and seemed clueless where the order went as we waited over 30 minutes. I'd suggest they be more mindful of customers time and show a bit more concern about the food being ordered

    We have had several fabulous meals here. Last time my friend ordered a tempura roll and yummy! We also got an appetizer that starts with a U but I can't spell it or pronounce it. Plus the fried tofu. Everything was fresh and so very tasty!

    Somehow I managed to eat a three Japanese steak hibachi spots in two days. This one was my favorite out of the three. I asked for steak and chicken and they brought out steak and shrimp lol. It was really good though. Which made me get steak and shrimp for the next two places I visited. Food: the steak was so tender and had lots of flavor. I really enjoyed the protein. The shrimp was just as good. The miso soup was decent. The fried rice was full of flavor. I really like the grilled veggies as well. I would definitely stop by again if I was in the area. Service was good. I think they are above your average hibachi Japanese steak place. The food had lots of flavor. Stop by and try them out. Price: is it worth it? Not sure. Lunch specials seem to be priced fair.

    Sakura is very good. Bento boxes are fun. Sometimes the waiters are slow and could be more professional.

    The Restaurant was very nice inside , clean and welcoming by the workers. We ordered sweet and…read moresour soup which was probably the best sweet and sour soup I've had. I was excited to the roll I ordered the Louisiana. The Louisiana had crawfish on top , which was cold temperature ( not sure if it was supposed to be hot) inside the roll had soft crab but all I tasted was shell. The roll is huge too! Not my favorite I just ate 1 rolls and the crawfish on top and also dissected the other rolls. We also ordered the shrimp curry which the shrimps were cut in half and it was a little bland. The rainbow roll was okay as well. Probably won't be back considering I don't live in the area.

I did try it here and my feelings remain the same, but I ordered the Ramen with beef. It was totally different from what I'm used to eating but was delicious! We also ordered the hot rock with beef. That was delicious! It was definitely my favorite thing to eat from there. We stayed and talked for well over two hours. The sweetest lady who took our orders was named Chui. She was very knowledgeable and gave the honest truth when we asked questions about certain things on the menu. She was also very witty with comeback jokes, lol! Definitely a vibe! I will most definitely come back here with my girls and dine again and will order the Ramen and hot rock with beef.

I wish they had it to where you can order on a tablet, as it was pretty busy and our amazing server was also very busy (they came by as much as they could. Very attentive considering it was busy). Unlike Kpot, you can actually have a conversation and hear yourself think!

    1 Star - Misleading Practices, Contradictory Rules, and Terrible Management…read more This was a very bad experience entirely because of the manager. We clearly told the staff this was our first time visiting, yet no one properly explained the rules, especially regarding over-ordering and leftover charges. When we questioned the extra charges, the manager repeatedly said he "had to stick to the rules" -- rules that were never explained to us. What makes this even worse is that the menu itself states you can't order more than two items per person, yet the staff did not follow that rule. Instead, excessive amounts of food were brought to our table, including full adult-sized portions for kids, and then we were charged for the leftovers. This felt intentional and misleading, clearly designed to overcharge customers. The biggest issue was the contradictory explanation about kids' pricing. The manager told us kids are half price because they don't eat as much as adults, yet at the same time insisted kids must receive full adult portions because they "can't tell us how much to order" and that it would be "rude" to do so. When questioned how that makes any sense, he had no explanation. To make matters worse, the kids' age rule kept changing -- first it was 13 and under, then suddenly 12 and under. Completely inconsistent and unprofessional. When we tried to have a reasonable conversation, the manager was rude, dismissive, and refused to accommodate us in any way. We told him we would be leaving a bad review due to the poor management and unfair practices, and he openly said he was "okay with that." He chose to charge us $30 for leftover food instead of resolving the issue, fully accepting a bad review and leaving his own waitstaff without a tip because of his behavior. No transparency. No accountability. No customer service. Families should be extremely cautious. We will not be returning.
