We ordered takeout, so I cannot comment on ambience. By the time we were able to eat, it had been maybe 30 minutes to an hour after the rolls were made. Each roll was good, although nothing really blew my hair back, but I am somewhat of a sushi snob. Our favorites were the Super Yummy and the Dancing Girl. The roles are pictured in the order that they appear on the receipt. (Move from Right top down, then left bottom up) My main gripe was that the imitation crab stick was actually not a stick or a peeled portion from a stick but chopped up which is something I usually only ever find at lower quality establishments. read more

Sushi and Jennifer were great. Hibachi terrible... drenched in teriyaki. "Fried rice" was steamed rice with soy sauce. Vegetables were edible. MIGHT be back for sushi but hibachi was terrible. read more

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. read more

Do not recommend went today to eat, an alive cockroach was in our crab puff appetizer

Delicious food, especially the Bento Boxes! We go there a couple times a month and enjoy their sashimi rolls. What ever you do, don't order ice cream to go! The "No soup for you" manager will shake and scream while shaking his Samurai cutlery. On a side note, the restaurant does have a nice Asian atmosphere. The host will speed walk you to the table while tossing your menus across the table like an experienced Vegas card dealer. Then he disappears as quickly as a wisp of smoke, silently, and mysteriously. Enjoy! ‍ read more

Always great, no complaints. Occasionally it's a little warm but the service is always amazing. I'll keep coming back!

One would not expect to find good sushi and quality Asian dishes prepared with care in a small town like Seguin. Let's talk straight for a minute: Seguin has several Chinese restaurants but they're not very... reputable. I'm sure some Seguin residents will take offense at what I just wrote and feel compelled to defend their favorite local Chinese joint. It's all they have! I get it. And I will vehemently defend people's right to their own opinion to my last breath... even if that opinion is plain wrong. Surrounded by such mediocre cuisine, Sakura shines even brighter, delivering tasty dishes and fresh sushi, presented with attention for detail. A meat eater, a vegetarian and a celiac all enter Sakura... and the three of them will leave with a full stomach. There are options for everyone at Sakura. Did I mention they're also affordable and have excellent customer service? Yes, Sakura, I notice it when you go the extra mile and provide gluten-free soy sauce for people like me who are trying to go gluten-free for a few months. I notice it and I love you for it. Those small gestures of goodwill and great service matter and they add up. I notice how clean the place it. Not a single grain of rice on the floor, on a chair or on a table. Wow! So why not 5 stars? Well, objectively I've had even better sushi in the past, usually in large cities and for a much higher price tag too. Yes, I just compared Sakura to proper Japanese restaurants that operate in real cities. I'm still trying to wrap my head around how they operate in Seguin. They're high grade. But, please, do stick around, Sakura; I love having you nearby! It's a real treat. TL;DR: Great sushi and great Asian food, especially for a small town like Seguin. Everything's clean and they have excellent customer service. Go eat at Sakura. You won't regret it, I think. read more

We were in Seguin for Hurricane Evacuation. We chose this place bc it was open later and my daughter wanted sushi. I highly recommend this restaurant! It was great and they packed everything very well and had all the supplies we needed to eat at hotel. The food was amazing. I had the steak and scallop combo. It was amazing. The steak was a 10 out of 10. The fried rice was great. We ordered crab puffs - excellent. And Sushi combo which my daughter said she loved. The price was great -60$ for 3 meals , 2 appetizers and extra sauces. Also salad and soup and rice came with everything. 10 out of 10 !!! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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! read more

Great food for a great price. Was able to feed my family of 5 for less than $100 with to-go. The fried rice is buttery and delicious, the tempura is crispy and light as well. They always have our food ready quickly and it's always really hot. read more

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 read more

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. read more

Trigger warning! Well, I don't come into this review lightly, because what was supposed to be a retry for a place I haven't been to in 4 years, as a possible back up for when our normal place is closed. Well it did not work out at all, as a matter of fact we will never go back or recommend this restaurant. I feel almost as if there is no redemption at this point. I have eaten sushi for well over 30 years. I have eaten at legendary establishments from Washington DC area to NYC and Austin, as well as Chicago and Dallas. When I arrived, my order was on a table near the hot entrance, not being refrigerated in the refrigerator that they have full of drinks. Nice if this also doubled to keep orders cold and fresh. It was a little warmer than I would have liked. Then, Never, and I mean Never have I had a bone in my sushi. Now keep in mind, all of us eat sushi in my house and we never have encountered bones. Yes I know there is a disclaimer, however, a good sushi chef is very careful about the art in which they clean, cut, and prepare the sushi. So I ordered the $80 worth of sushi for three of us. Little did I know that that small amount of sushi was going to end up costing us $20k. Yep, so my youngest was eating her hand roll and all the sudden started to scream about a sharp pain in her throat! Yep! I had her rinse and gargle, to no avail. She started gagging and throwing up all of her food, still no relief, so we headed to our local hospital. Well, after a check in, only to be transferred into San Antonio, followed by an emergency Larynxoscopy, it was retrieved. Luckily it had imbedded into her left tonsil and was pointed downward, as in. If we pull this and it slips it can cause more damage down the pipe. This was no small slice of bone, nor was it a tiny missable bone. It was an inch long and clingy. So much so, that the EnT Surgeon made a note of the fact that it was not easily placed into the specimen jar. I know lots of littles eat sushi now, but in this rushed and hurried world, if you can find a sushi chef who cares, stick with them. I feel like I cheated on my main chef because they were closed. Never again. read more

The food was very good. We got the honeymoon appetizer, and my husband got the muscle appetizer and chicken teriyaki bento box , and I got the salmon roll. It took a while for our apps to come out but they were worth the wait. Both our mains were excellent although the chicken was a little tough/dry. Flavors were all great and the rice with the Bento box was amazing. This restaurant is also very nicely decorated. read more

The sushi rolls are premade and pulled out of the refrigerator - not made upon ordering. The rice shouldn't be hot on a spider roll. Didn't taste fresh or good - flavor or texture. Service was nice, but slow, and they seem understaffed. Could be cleaner... Wouldn't recommend or go back. read more

Our table was dirty from prior. The customer service was excellent though. The server recommended great dishes. We had the Batman sushi roll and 2 chicken bento boxes. She had warned us that it would be a lot of food and she was right lol! We had a lot of leftovers. Batman sushi roll had so much flavor. The chicken teriyaki bento box was delicious just a lot of food. Prices were good. read more

I called to place an order for steak and scallops on the hibachi grill and was told they don't have that with no further explanation. I asked if they still have a hibachi grill and was told yes with no further explanation. I then asked, we'll what do you have and was met with some sort of expletives and was hung up on. I attempted to call back 3 times and was hung up on each time. This place has no concern for providing good service whatsoever. read more

Our go to place for date nights, we've tried a variety of their rolls, sushi and sashimi plates, their steak hibachi....every thing and I mean everything is always great. Every time we go. The quality and freshness of their fish is fantastic. We even recommend it to family and friends who visited from out of town. This restaurant does not disappoint. Ever. Only thing I feel that could be improved is the temperature in the restaurant. It gets a bit warm at times. read more

Seguin is not what you think of when you want off I-10 sushi. But, this place did a great job. 5 minutes off I-10. Yes you can now go to Seguin for Sushi. Strip mall setting. Plenty of Parking. Restaurant clean and typical decor Fish was fresh and delicous Service was attentive and friendly. Started off with ginger salad and cucumber salad. Ginger salad was decent but not complimentary like most places. Not a deal breaker. Cucumber salad missing sesame seeds but not bad. Reason for 5 stars and why I say go. Sushi was plentiful and delicious. 4 rolls, 2 teas, 2 salads for $42.00. No fancy presentation. But again. I care about taste. And the rolls were darn good and it hit the spot. Firecracker with jalepeños was perfectly spicy. Rock n Roll had a nice subtle sweet taste from fish sauce. YUM! read more

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

Unless you are okay with management/ownership stiffing the hard-working servers, do NOT eat here. I will NOT support a business that does immoral, unfair, and dishonest things like that. Their food isn't very good anyway. Half the time the menu description doesn't even match what you actually get, at least with take-out. Also, the miso soup they give (if they even remember to) with take- out orders has no seaweed OR tofu in it. It's literally just the broth. Why would it not be the same miso they serve in the restaurant? IMO, that's management being cheap. Their bathroom is never clean and has been out of the basic necessity, hand soap, at least a couple times before. How are employees supposed to wash their hands? Finally- sushi at HEB is WAY fresher, better tasting, and a much better value than ANY of the sushi places in Seguin! read more
