For a landlocked state, this spot was pretty good! The service was great and the sushi was good. We stopped by on a Friday evening and there was no wait. We were seated within minutes. The walls have beautiful paintings that add a nice touch to the restaurant's ambiance. Overall, I'd return with friends or family! read more

Sushi was very fresh but the rolls definitely made you full real quick because of the rice. Each roll had 8 pieces on the plate. Would recommend getting the sashimi instead to get the all you can eat experience Service was really good considering we had a party of 15 of us, but one of them is a baby. My bf couldn't make it but also if you're like him who is allergic to seafood there are other options on the menu to choose from. We celebrated my cousin's birthday today so we accomodated 3 dining tables to fit all of us. The only thing I'd want to change is that it's very hard to get everyone's orders in order. We had to write our names on the paper which we checked marked what we want on there. I thought it was a great idea at first but when the food came, it wasn't given by our names, the food was handed by what you ordered. Considering each of us forgot what we ordered and might have duplicates lol it would be nice to just have everything come at once by your name. Some of us waited for the rest of our food while some of us never got our food. Just chaos lol if you have a party of more than 6+ take a picture of what you ordered on that paper menu or take a note and check mark what you got Food I ordered that came: - Zuchinni Tempura - Miso Soup - Salmon Sashimi - Salmon Roll - Sakura Roll - Butter Pecan Food I ordered that never came: - Salmon Skin Roll I'd suggest getting the Miso Soup to start or to pair with. It was really good. Sashimi is a must to avoid eating too much rice on the rolls lol. I loved the Zuchinni Tempura, however they were quite stingy on it. 1 means 1 piece of it not given a few But by the time everything else came out plus we all were sharing, it was fine not to even ask where the rest of our orders are lol Just like other all you can eat restaurants, wasted foods are charged additional. I'd suggest a to go box if they offered that instead of an additional charge for leftovers. Would be convenient since I've seen to go orders from Uber Eats / Door Dash / Postmates. Just saying. Ambiance, well, we're asians-filipinos so we're pretty loud when it comes to parties and everyone else were just at a quiet medium voice. Plus there was a box fan blowing next to our table so I heard that too read more

All You Can Eat Sushi! They offer a decent dining experience. The variety of sushi is impressive for an all you can eat place, with semi-fresh ingredients and beautifully crafted rolls. Their sashimi is pretty good, but smaller in cuts and nothing against the rules to order multiple times. Rolls were okay. Their udon noodles isn't bad but also nothing to write home about. I'd say the best thing was their yakitori, great flavor and texture (I ordered 2 more after I tried the first one). The ambiance is a lottle more loud with msuic going, so not a relaxed meal environment. The service is generally attentive, although it can be a bit slow during peak hours. Overall, Sakura is a fantastic choice for sushi lovers looking for decent value, where you won't leave hungry. $83+tip for a total bill for two, which include soke hakasuru sake and a Kiran light. read more

Service was great! Quality of food ok. Salmon skin was over cooked, and tough to eat

For the price of lunch ayce, it's worth coming to get your sushi fix. They don't mess around with adding extra rice so your sushi is mostly rice and a tiny bit of everything else. Is it the freshest fish? We're in Arizona that doesn't exist but it's worth a try and visit (especially for lunch) read more

Recently, I went here on a first date here as they suggested this location. From the name in Yelp I didn't realize it was all-you-can-eat establishment and I didn't check out the reviews beforehand to notice. I tend to eat smaller portions so the price point of $28.99 was pretty steep in comparison to what I could eat. Since this was the first time meeting someone, I didn't snap any photos. The food presentation was pretty average and the food taste was pretty standard as well. It was nice that it was made-to-order, but it still didn't seem to be anything extraordinary. If quantity is your thing, then this is the place for you. If quality is your thing, then I would skip this place personally. To each their own when it comes to all-you-can-eat sushi. read more

AYCE sushi for 20 bucks per person with unlimited food? Count me in! 2 hour limit in the restaurant and you will be charged for any leftovers. Service was adequate and the servers were welcoming. TEMPURA UDON (MY FAVORITE) ---------------- The tempura shrimp's flavor was seriously addictive. Such a soft batter and soft shrimp texture that melts in your mouth. Not overpoweringly salty udon broth with squishy udon noodles. Would recommend this dish as it doesn't make you too heavy and leaves your belly to taste more food! TAMAGO AND TOBIKO NIGIRI ---------------------------- The Tamago and Tobiko nigiri were nice palate cleansers. The egg in the Tamago nigiri tasted slightly sweet along with the fluffy rice. The Tobiko nigiri's fish eggs provided a great crunch with the seaweed and had a nice Umami flavor. GYOZA AND SEAWEED SALAD ---------------------------- Gyoza was mighty fine . The chicken and cilantro inside was so juicy that it ran down my chin. Skin was so crispy! Seaweed salad was very refreshing and balanced out the saltiness in each of these dishes. BUTTER PECAN ICE CREAM ------------------------- The butter pecan ice cream was ridiculously delicious! Could taste the pecan the most. Doesn't melt that fast either. So refreshing after all the salty goodness. Would definitely recommend this spot! The memories of Sakura Sushi are still lingering in my dreams. I'll have to give this the ultimate stamp of approval. read more

We started with most of the basic items first like salmon and tuna and yellow tail and white tuna and spicy tuna nigiri to test things out. Then we moved on to a few of the rolls like the Out of Control Roll* (8pcs) (Tuna, salmon, yellowtail, avocado, topped with spicy mayo and eel sauce). We also had the salmon avocado roll. We also had the Yellowtail Roll too. We tried the Pork Cutlet Udon and it was alright. The soup was quite salty and tasted like soy sauce. I used it instead of getting a miso soup or using soy sauce. The pork cutlet started off crispy but was soggy at the end. I would recommend trying to get them separately somehow if you wanted both. The noodles were okay but a little softer than expected. It had some mushrooms and broccoli and cabbage in it. While a good size it is best to get when you have at least two people sharing it. We also tried quite a few of their tempura like the asparagus and the eggplant and the shrimp and the scallop. The scallop was kind of like a chicken nugget but seafood flavored. Plus it had the texture of the inside of a California roll to me in the sense that it was soft and could be shredded easily. The shrimp was not deveined. The eggplant and asparagus tasted as one would expect. To end, we had the Green Tea Ice Cream (1 scoop) which tasted like a mixture of lime sorbet and green tea ice cream. It was mostly like a lime flavor to me. read more

Our whole family loves sushi and we can tear it up which becomes expensive. Then, we found Sakura! We were a little skeptical that AYCE sushi in the desert could be good, but we were so glad we took a shot to try it. The decor inside is colorful and modern with murals of Japanese art and beautiful canvas art. The staff was attentive and friendly and always on the move to deliver your orders to the table swiftly. Everything was delicious. The sashimi was fresh. The options for special rolls were plentiful. Our family enjoyed our dinner and left with overly full bellies. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're a sushi lover. read more

Wanted to take family out while in town, kids decided to show me one of their local favorites. Glad they did, we loved it !!! Friendly staff, very helpful as we had a baby with us, and new parents first time out with her-lol. After some adjustments we got settled, great seating arrangements for large groups. Plenty of seating to keep the wait short & a mention of a two hour limit which helps. Love the murals and setting, clean restrooms. You are given a ordering menu and a pencil, you select what you want and the quantity. Word of caution, once it starts coming it stays coming, do not let your eyes outperform your stomach. Try one of each to see how tastes to start, we enjoyed everything and had no problem finishing what we asked for. You have a little something for everyone, from sushi to everything fried, rice, noodles, salad, and ice-cream Around $30 per person, which once you think about it is a pretty good deal compared to ordering that amount of sushi and food anywhere else. We will back our next time visiting for sure !!! read more

staff was friendly and got us seated quickly on a friday evening. However, i ordered salmon nigiri and the fish bones were still in the fish. I got an apology but i was offered no discount and obviously im not going to continue eating after that. Raw fish is already hard to trust but if they aren't even cutting it properly who knows what else they aren't doing to the fish to make sure it's served correctly. would not come back. read more

I mean, how much can one complain about $20 AYCE sushi or $30 with nigiri? Regardless of good pricing, I won't be back. Quality is poor, fish is bottom of the barrel as expected, only yellowtail and salmon were pretty edible. Rolls were doused in gross sauces to cover up poor quality. I'm shocked people eat here. Most grocery store sushi is higher quality. There just isn't enough to sustain a sushi lover over one visit. There are plenty of places for $30 for nigiri that are far, far, better. I'd rather pay the $20. This place was pretty gross and I frequent AYCE joints in CA and have fairly low standards. This is about the worst I have had, equal to any bad Chinese buffet's sushi you've been to (again, minus salmon and hamachi). Friendly service and quickly made, however. read more

Sushi was delicious. The service was great, fast and our server was nice. Love the decor and the feel of the restaurant. Came in on a Sunday at 3:00pm and there was no wait. read more

Hands down the most affordable yet tasty AYCE sushi experience I've had. Parking lot was spacious and we were immediately seated during lunch time. The lunch price was $18.99 per person and they took our order via sheets. Next to each item, we indicated how many orders we wanted. There wasn't a limit to how much could come out at once. Selection was impressive with 163 available options, including appetizers, fried rice, udon, soba and ice cream. The drink menu was reasonably priced and sake centric as opposed to beer and wine. The owner was incredibly nice and constantly came to check on us and give recommendations. The servers were a bit disorganized since the tables weren't properly labeled but the food came out quickly so we didn't mind. =GET= *Yakitori: an amazingly seasoned chicken skewer. Had a sweeter marinade that wasn't overwhelming and the chicken was tender and juicy. *Seaweed Salad *Sweetheart Roll: contained spicy tuna, tuna and eel sauce. One of the best ordered rolls. Had adorable heart presentation and the tuna was soft. Spicy tuna wasn't overly spicy. *Tuna Jalapeño Roll: classic tuna roll with an extra kick. *Nigiri: yellowtail was excellent and not fishy at all. Every piece came on warm rice and the ratio of rice and fish was generous. Great cuts and they didn't skimp on the fish. *Miso Soup: not very salty and came with lots of tofu and green onions. *Ice Cream: had green tea, vanilla and butter pecan. All scoops were creamy and not overly sweet. Favorite had to be the fragrant green tea. *Hana Awakening Sake: ordered peach and yuzu and both were refreshing. Very little alcohol presence. =PASS= *Deep Fried Scallop: scallop was a bit rubbery. Tempura batter was very light and contributed only crunch. *Chicken Teriyaki: doesn't come with rice and the chicken wasn't cooked in teriyaki sauce. It was cooked separated and was presented with teriyaki sauce on top. *Eel Cucumber Roll: so much rice and barely any eel. Wished there was some grilled flavor or smokiness to balance out the overload of eel sauce. Primarily tasted like cucumber with sweet rice. Although there were some hiccups with the ordering system, the seafood quality and selection blew me out of the water. Definitely will come back regularly given the price and friendly service. read more

This place is really surprising, based on being an all you can eat place. The sushi is really good and the ability to order 1 piece of what you want versus having to buy a set amount is so nice. The place is cute with lots of space, which tends to get really full. The waitresses are nice and make their rounds frequently to pick up any new order forms. Highly recommend visiting. read more

Sakura Sushi - Salmon nigiri. Some of the best in the EV! - Japanese Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

For the price, quality of sushi is decent. Nice variety, we tried several folks and both sushi and kitchen items.

Sushi rolls were good. Deep fried rolls had thick breading. Didn't seem like the usual tempura breading. $26.95 all you can eat rolls to order. Don't waste food or they say they'll charge you extra. We got our moneys worth and it was decent not great. Be hungry when you come. Service was good and place was nice inside. read more

The sushi, soup and salad is good. I really enjoyed the seafood fried udon. Never had that before. I love that they are an All-You-Can-Eat restaurant. You can try so many things. You just have to be dedicated to what you get. They charge for any food wasted. Rightly so. In my opinion. The service could have better. They need to smile. Make you feel welcomed.

Ordered this for dinner through Uber Eats tonight. Let me tell you, it was a great call! This place is great! Cheapest sushi I've seen on Uber Eats personally. I got the shrimp tempura appetizer, avocado salad, and a 5 piece of salmon sashimi. The sashimi is sold by piece, 2 dollars each, which I think is a great price for how fresh it is. The avocado salad was so refreshing and delicious. Great shrimp tempura as well! I see that the restaurant is all you can eat, so I'll definitely be checking this place out in person very soon! read more

Delicious, my family loved it. We've been twice now and the fish is fresh and the service is fast. Really nice read more

2 out of 5 stars My friend waited over an hour for one roll--I think they had to go fish for it. The second he got it we pulled a hair off of it. Meanwhile, my sashimi was still frozen but the rice was hot, like the kitchen couldn't agree on the season. Not the worst meal ever, but definitely the most confusing temperature-wise. Two stars for entertainment value. read more

Food was delicious!! We started off with miso soup we order the beef rice it's a small portion only for one person so make sure you order more if you want to share. We also had a Las Vegas roll it was amazing! We also order Angry dragon roll and it was amazing. The restaurant is clean and everyone is really nice!! We will be coming back!! read more

Great food and quick home delivery. The service is also wonderful and it is usually not very crowded.

Great food. Great price. Service was very good. That's what matters most. I will definitely be back again soon

Service was extremely slow, we got our appetizer well after the main dishes. The soup bases have NO flavor whatsoever, basically just hot water and soggy noodles. The fish is not chilled and doesn't taste fresh. read more

For being an all you can eat sushi place, the sushi then out really good. It's all you can eat but the food is made to order. Didn't care for tempura shrimp or tempura anything.

The food was good, the service a little confusing. Servers were getting things mixed up and brought us 3 servings of a dish we only ordered one of. The one reason this wasn't 5 starts is because they put a note on the order form saying they would charge for waisted food. If I pay for all you can eat and don't like it all or finish it all, I should not be charged. read more

The food here is good. Sushi is fresh, and it's our go-to spot. But I have to warn people that this place charges an automatic 18% "service charge" that is considered separate from the 20% tip you are to leave. This service charge isn't a tip. Some people say it goes towards insurance for employees. It's unethical not to inform customers. It's not a tax. read more
