    Sushi section
    Greg T.

    We go here quite regularly with friends and neighbors because of location convenience and quality of food. The hibachi style diners come with a salad and bowl of soup and is more than enough to split or share with another. My go to is a chicken hibachi, while others I know do the chicken and steak or shrimp or scallops. The service is always spot on and attentive with refills of water done before asking in many instances. The sushi options are also popular and bento boxes I have seen around the dining tables also

    I've eaten in twice and done take out once from here and it's all been good. I haven't really tried other sushi in the area yet, but so far, this is our go to. I come from the DC area and it's not as good as my favorite there, but it's definitely good. The Good 1) They have lunch specials 2) Their sushi is nicely presented (with flowers on the plate, etc.) 3) The sushi tastes fresh 4) The roll pieces are a nice size and there isn't too much rice 5) They have a nice variety of rolls as well as other items: bento boxes, teriyaki, apps, desserts, etc. 6) The Flying Dragon Roll is my favorite so far: crunchy spicy tuna, avocado, topped with eel and eel sauce. We also liked the spicy tuna, California and spicy scallop rolls 7) Chicken teriyaki was good - large portions. The lunch special came with fried rice, veggies, soup and salad. The Bad 1) Their ginger dressing on their salad is pretty sweet - a lot sweeter than I'm use to at Japanese restaurants 2) The teriyaki sauce was sweeter than I'm use to, as well as the miso soup. I wouldn't have the soup again unless it was included with my meal. Honestly, my only real gripe with this place is the "sweetness" in some of their offerings. I'm just not use to it. We went for a late lunch and it wasn't very busy. Service was mostly good - our server went on break while we were there and no one waited on us for awhile, but I was able to flag someone down to get our check. Our take out experience was positive also - order was ready on time and accurate. When I picked up our take out it was packed - no open tables at all (dinner time).

    I've been to many sakuras and this is one is the best yet. Great quality sushi, not too much rice, affordable, and huge portions. Their entrees come with both soup and salad. Most others you just choose one. The service was great and fast and my infant made a mess and they stopped me from cleaning up after her and said they'd take care of it. Will be back!

    Best dish of chicken yaki udon noodles I've ever had. Best spicy tuna roll in The Villages. Great food and great service. Such an amazing place and experience tonight My recommendation is to make reservations as this place is very popular Enjoy as many of the menu items are delicious. I've had the steak an chicken and wow to the tender steak and chicken. Generous portions and fresh vegetables Great experience

    The best hibachi and sushi in the Villages. The amount of one dinner can feed two stomachs. Take out is fast and always correct.

    Food is consistently good. Our waiter was not super friendly. But the food is worth the frustrated waiter.

    The food was outstanding. We started with the shrimp appetizer & calamari, both were excellent. The…read moreseafood is very fresh and cooked to perfection. Our server, Matt was extremely attentive and well informed about the menu. There were 2 managers working and BOTH made our experience fantastic. The atmosphere was also impressive, loved the lighting. The next time we come into town we will definitely revisit this restaurant.

    Worst meal I have had in quite a while…read more The waitress was given three other tables they told us after we were seated and we waited an unusually long time to even order out food. My mother was a bit upset how long we sat there. Next, everyone's meal came except my order so I got to watch everyone eat. They did bring my salad out finally, but the Cesar dressing was cheep bottled and not actually Cesar dressing (disappointing) and I ate the house salad pretty much dry... for a place that puts off a fancy vibe, for a 9$ small house salad you would think the Cesar dressing would actually be real and not some poor imitation from a bottle. then Finally my order came after everyone was already half done. The Oysters Rockefeller were hardly warm and were All full of shell bits, almost uneatable...with rubbery bacon bits from a bag in large amounts over the whole. Poor service, poor food, just gross. UPDATE since posting... I intermittently fast and this was the first thing I ate yesterday, since then I have been up - on and off all night - in the bathroom 5 times with the runs... laying in bed now still feeling sickly. Before this I have not had or been sick from anything since last summer and I eat food all over the country, their food totally made me ill. -1 star. Boooo
