Togo Service sucks. Placed a phone order and took 30 min to get there and they hadn't even started my order. They weren't even busy so no excuse!! read more

First off, the food here is very good, and the teppanyaki chefs are excellent. That aside, there were some problems with waitstaff, grill area cleanliness, and restroom cleanliness. As we were seated, I noticed some broken glass on the grill top and in the surrounding grill area. Having been to many teppanyaki establishments in the past, I made a mental note to closely observe how well the chef pre-cleaned the grill top. He did a great job, but it still made me nervous knowing that there were small shards of glass there. In the end, I experienced no issues and heard no complaints from the other guests. The lady that came out to take drink and food orders was rather "chilly". There wasn't so much a language barrier as there was an accent barrier. Coupled with the ambient noise of the place, it made it very difficult for some elderly guests and others to correctly place their order. Bathrooms were very messy for so early in the evening. Refinements in these areas could quickly garner a third and fourth star from me. Food quality and taste were excellent. read more

Food was great and they also include entertainment during the dinner. The chef was very funny and entertaining. You receive a appetizer and three sides included in your choice of entree. read more

Sakura - Menu - Japanese Near Me - Woodbridge, Virginia

I bit into the lemon wedge on my water and felt something funny. Pulled it out of my mouth and found a fingernail. Yup, a sizable hangnail. I do not bite my nails. I mentioned this to the waiter when he came around with our food. He apologized and took it back to show the kitchen. My date and I had both lost our appetites, so we asked for the check and some boxes. I was surprised when the check came back with the full amount charged. I'm not someone who thinks meals should be comped for things like long waits or small mix-ups, but I felt like this was definitely a case where the meal should have been comped. We were both eager to leave, so I didn't say anything. Definitely not coming back. Or ever using the lemon wedges provided in restaurants. read more

This place used to be amazing. My friends and I would drive past 20 sushi places to eat here. Fast forward to 2017... my friends and I came here for dinner and the place looked wrecked. The seats were peeling and the glass was dirty. Our tuna smelled awful and they told us that it was still good but it was just a specific kind of tuna, but we still sent it back. Figuring that maybe we went on a bad night we decided to try it again pretty recently. They have remodeled but the sushi and staff quality is nowhere near what it used to be 5 years ago. It's so depressing when your favorite place to eat gets snapped out of existence by Thanos. read more

The first time it was good but not as good , I went with my husband and the chef didn't serve us as much food gave us less then a hand full of chicken and A lot of rice? While we were looking at this other family that was sitting with us which got more food then we did and we pretty much ordered the same thing ! I forgot to take a picture of my plate but it was ridiculous I was kinda disappointed but it was good even though my husband and I had to share chicken with each other because we were satisfied! Second time I went there HORRRIIIIBLLLEEE!!!! It was busy and yea I didn't mind the wait bc I've been to other hibachis places and I could understand how busy it gets because of large families , anyways ! We waited for like 20 mins and finally got us a spot with this family we didn't know , the lady is the picture was serving us . So she was taking the families drink order and I couldn't really hear what she was asking me ,but I told her what I wanted to EAT and she said "I'm not asking you for what you want to eat I'm asking for what you want to drink " and I couldn't hear her much because like I said it was full and she skipped me and went to my husband and I looked at her like ??? And then she came with everyone's drink and not mine and then she's like "what do you want to drink " and I was like Pepsi and brought my drink , anyways , it was time to order food and I told her what I wanted and she rolled her eyes and she was ignoring my husband and I to serve the other family , anyways chef came and she kept going around the other family asking if they were okay and stuff and didn't ask me and my husband anything !!! And we wanted a refill on drinks and she never came back she would look at us and see we needed her and she totally ignored us !! Brought a tray of refills for the other family ? And totally walked passed us ! Ridiculous and rude ! And threw the box on top food when I asked for one ?so pathetic read more

Sakura - (I stole the pic from someone else's review ) Very rude lady !!!!! Some what racist ! - Japanese Near Me - Woodbridge, Virginia

Sakura is a franchise business and they are well saturated in just about every corner of the United States. You get what you come for, but they really lack any kind of unique flair. I was satisfied with the chirashi, but there is really nothing much to write about. It was chirashi with miso soup and salad - end of story. This restaurant has the hibachi shows for those patrons that want to get the thrill of high grease flames, eggs hidden in the chef's cap and juggling spatulas at what not. Been there done that - just a novelty, but it goes over well with the kids. The service was good, I can't complain. Even though I was at the sushi bar, the waiter made sure my Asahi never went empty. The bathrooms and dining areas were well maintained and clean. The decor is decidedly generic with Japanese prints of squinty-eyed samurai holding on to their swords and such. Ho hum. If you want decent sushi with a Japanese style cookie-cutter experience this is your place. The prices are too high for what you get in my opinion. Don't expect much of a memorable experience from this restaurant, and with Tokyo Japanese Steak House basically across the street you get much more for about the same price. read more

Sakura - Chirashi - Japanese Near Me - Woodbridge, Virginia

excellent place to eat with children The dressing of the house is great of course I will be back soon

The greed of the owner outweighs the food. He will quote unrealistic times to seat tables even when his employees are trying to be honest with you. He doesn't want people to leave because of a high wait time so he lies. We ordered to go and we were quoted 50 minutes. We went to the restaurant after 40 and waited ....and waited....and waited.... Everyone we spoke to said "oh we'll check on it" or " oh it's going on the grill now it won't be much longer" we ended up waiting and watching order after order get picked up from people who ordered well after us. Our final wait time was 2 hours. There was no apology or comp given for something that was clearly extremely poorly managed. They clearly do not have the capacity to run dine in and online orders simultaneously. If they got a new owner this place would be way better. read more

I had the spicy sushi roll lunch combo, it was 18 pieces and I chose house salad on the side. I loved it, wish I ordered more.

Their hibachi is alright and is comparable to other spots, but their sushi here is pretty disappointing. Overall, I feel like their quality has been declining steadily and they haven't really been keeping this place up to it's full potential. I used to come here a lot in high school and I felt like the food was a lot better back then. --Hibachi-- For my appetizer, I'm weird and I like to get chicken livers-- which they cook with soy sauce. One dish that I do enjoy here is the teriyaki salmon steak. I always ask our cook to not overcook the fish and it usually comes out very tender and moist. As for the other choices, I don't think they are really worth it and the meats are usually dry and overdone. --Sushi-- Their sushi was never great, but now it's not even worth it. During my most recent visit here, my boyfriend and I sat at the sushi bar and ordered the spicy tuna hand roll, the spider, rainbow, and spicy salmon rolls. We really shouldn't have ordered that much food. The rice was overcooked, the rolls were poorly made, and the fish did not taste fresh. The quality was comparable to what you can find at Chinese buffets. --Service-- Service has always kind of been slow here but the staff are friendly. Food: 2 Value: 2 Service: 3 Overall: 2 read more

Pretty sad that one of our favorite restaurants has gone downhill. Your shrimp appetizer definitely doesn't have two shrimp, but you lied to my daughter's boyfriend when he questioned you. Do better. We won't be back. Your chefs used to be friendly, what happened? read more

We used to dine here at least twice a month before the pandemic. Now we order to go. The food is fresh, cooked perfectly, and very tasty. My wife likes the Shrimp flambé. They give you a choice of sides (Mushrooms or Chicken livers) along with Miso soup and salad ( I cheat and have them put yum yum sauce on mine instead of the house dressing). All in all we easily get 2 meals per order even with the take out. I'll add pictures next time we pick some up. They are open for indoor dining. read more

This place has gone down hill it will be my last time coming. I was completely disrespected by the hostess. I told him I waited 40 min when he claimed it was less. I asked to speak to manager then responded just chill you table is being cleaned it will be 5 more min. His tone was disrespectful I asked to speak to manager. The manager walks and says your table will be ready 5 min. Didn't even give me chance to explained why I was upset on how the hostess spoke to me. I then asked for the general managers name the manager refused said you can email us. This was even more disappointing. I have been coming her for more then 5 years. read more

Worse place to eat. They hired a disrespectful chef. Won't come back here . Horrible experience that I never forget .

I like the food but you guys close online ordering too early, 1 hour early to be exact, like come on You guys have more time to sell food.

Just 1 item for takeout I have to wait 1hour30 minutes. I know sometimes the restaurant busy but Not too long like that.

I was hesitant to try this spot because of the initial star rating being less than 4, but my wife was craving hibachi so off we went. I chose to have sushi while my wife and children had the hibachi. The waiter was great, not hovering but personable and always there when needed. The sushi was perfect and absolutely delicious. The hibachi was well cooked and our chef had a good mixture of humor and professionalism. My family and I will definitely be back for more. read more

The health score of this place is atrocious, but I still eat there because it's one of the best hibachi places around The food is delicious and the portions are generous. Service can be hit or miss though, with more of a miss on my last visit. read more

My youngest brothers favorite place to eat, so I always seem to eat here when I visit. This hibachi restaurant is nothing special in my opinion. I have had both good and bad service here and the food is always over flavored with soy sauce. Perception is not reality when it comes to cleanliness either. After putting my arms on the table top, my shirt not only stuck but also became stained. What I ate: Steak and shrimp combo (Hibachi) The steak although small was prepared very well, cooking it to order, as asked. The shrimp were overcooked and tasted like rubber with soy sauce. The rice was dry, but after adding yum yum sauce became much better. I also ordered a side of noodles but due to the chef forgetting whose they were, I only got to try one bite due to them being dispersed across the whole table equally. For the price of the meals and what you receive from this restaurant, I would highly recommend going elsewhere. read more

When we got in the wait wasn't long and the host was sweet. However, our server Suk was the most rude individual I have probably met in my entire life. First off, she shouts at her guests AND employees like they are all imbeciles. She was even talking back to customers, not just at our table, but the tables around us. When I say talking back, I mean in the sense of being difficult when I asked her to split the bill, she rolled her eyes. She even stooped so low as to saying the "F" word under her breath as she walked away. Funny thing is that she thought we didn't hear. Now it's about to get BBB serious! At one point I was getting up to make a business call and as I'm walking from the table I see her walking into the kitchen and another server walks out with a tray and she got hit in the head. What happened next was downright abuse. She screamed at the server to the point where the server was crying for a simple mistake that was honestly Suks fault for racing into the kitchen like she's in a damn Ferrari. The guests were shocked and scared. How is Sakura going to handle a situation of this caliber? I've been to many Sakura's in my life, and this is by far my WORST experience. Although, I must say that the food was good. BEWARE OF THE SERVER SUK! I think that she has anger issues and is mentally unbalanced. read more

We stopped in for a business lunch, but only because we wanted Japanese food, not to do the entire teppanyaki show too. So, we sat in the bar area at a regular table. We were told that the service would be slower there, which was fine considering we had business to discuss. Overall, the wait wasn't very long. But the food we ordered came out looking less than appetizing. It tasted nice, but looked like it was scraped together from leftovers from one of the teppanyaki grills that were cooking up entrees for the other guests. Again, the food tasted decent, but the service was slightly lacking, presentation completely lacking and overall we just weren't impressed, especially for the amount paid. Might be better at dinner. read more

This Is by far the worst restaurant I had to ever pick up an order from! I was doing doordash tonight and I got there 5 minutes before pickup time so I waited and the manager says 15 minutes so I waited and I was there for over an hour and the order never came out until I was finally like I cant wait anymore I'm losing money on this order! DO NOT ACCEPT ANY ORDERS FROM SAKURA IF YOU ARE A DELIVERY DRIVER YOU WILL LOSE MONEY read more

We really liked Sakura and will return. We are very familiar with Benihana and like Sakura better. The soup and salad were delicious. I had the salmon and my husband had filet and shrimp and all were perfectly cooked. The fried rice was freshly made in the hibachi. I had the chicken liver appetizer and it was super good. We will be back. Portions were huge. I couldn't eat it all. Service was great and the chef was outstanding read more

6/8/20 6:25pm. The person who answered the phone was terribly rude. We ordered through the phone and asked if we could pick up our order at 7:00pm, the person who answered said it will be ready now, we asked again if we could pick up at 7:00pm he said it will be ready now. We asked if it would be refrigerated. The person murmured something we couldn't understand. We made our order at 5:20pm, decided to go there early at 6:20pm to find they HAD LEFT THE FOOD OUT on the counter, now all our food is WARM. Terrible food and service. read more

Such a great place!! My children and I enjoyed the entertainment of them cooking in front of us. There is so much food I couldn't eat it all. Can't wait to go back. read more

I've eaten at many Hibachi restaurants. This is one of the best. They offer a couple options I've never seen before like a free appetizer (though the selection is limited) and both noodles and rice. (At other Hibachi restaurants you normally only get one or the other.) The service was very quick and the food was excellent. My wife and I both got steak and shrimp. The steak was very tender in the shrimp was flavorful. From start to finish it was an excellent meal. I will definitely be back. read more

Dated interior in dire need of renovations in general. Especially the seating and flooring in the eating area. The bathrooms were nice and clean though. Wait staff was inattentive and only came by maybe twice throughout the whole meal-we otherwise had to flag them ourselves. Our chef was good, but paled in comparison to the other staff members working that evening. Portion sizes were comically large. Sushi was great but took way too long to get out. Our chef was halfway through cooking the dinner by the time it arrived, and he didn't arrive for quite some time after being seated and having ordered. We also had to call the server back over to ask for dishes for soy sauce. The other group seated at our table was less patient and had to go to the sushi bar to requisition some dishes for themselves. read more

Great hibachi spot. The food is always good everything I visit and the staff is entertaining. Definitely be sure to try the Yum Yum Sauce!

I'm beyond pissed at the way the waitlist was handled was handled tonight. I sat at this restaurant for over an hour tonight waiting to be seated with my son. They told us the wait time was 30 minutes, but I saw five families that came in after us get seated ahead of us, because they had larger parties. I don't appreciate the way things happened this evening at all. I frequent your restaurant and have never been treated so poorly. It will be a cold day in hell before I spend any more money here. read more

I SAT HERE FOR 20 minutes and nobody came and ask what for my order or ask what I want to drink.. it's totally unacceptable and I will never come back to this restaurant, bathroom is a mess and they are VERY VERY Rude. read more

We got here for a 30 minute wait. After 30 minutes I checked the hostess to see how much longer to find out she had crossed my name off said she called our name. But we were standing 10 feet away from the hostess stand. After arguing with the manager they sat us and we waited for another hour to get have our cook, cook our food. If I could I would give them a negative ! read more

Wouldn't recommend take out orders on a Friday night. I've been waiting for my order for an hour and a half. I tried to call and place my order over the phone so I wouldn't have to wait but they didn't answer and I called several times. This has been my worst experience here so far but the manager on duty offered me 10 percent off my bill to compensate for the inconvenience which was a kind gesture but I still have to lower my rating due to the extremely long wait time. read more

Horrible customer service. The order was not filled properly. Terrible communication skills. Food was over cooked. Very disappointed.

Saturday, May 29, 2021, I ordered lobster, shrimp & scallop dinner, comes with fried rice, and extra shrimp. Our "chef performer" actually said to me that I ordered too big of a meal and gave some of my portion to the woman to the left of him and they started laughing, that was really embarrassing. The restaurant & bathrooms were not clean! The "chef prepared" food was horrible!! I definitely DO NOT recommend going to this restaurant! read more

Hands down best sushi chef ever! He is amazing and fully artistic. Everything tastes delicious! fresh and tasty. So happy to have found this place, ask for Eric when you dine out!!! read more

See all

I picked up an order on Friday September 17th, 2021, I had a lot of leftovers that I planned to have the following day for dinner. As soon as I took it out of the fridge, there was a overpowering, funky smell coming from the box. To make sure, I warmed up a piece of meat and tasted a little piece and it definitely had gone bad. I called and management said that they could not do anything about it because I purchased the food the day before! So essentially, they served me meat that was already going bad, which I am sure they knew. I have never had leftovers from any restaurant go bad the very next day. Absolutely disgusting, never again! read more

So freaking good I just tried right now Something diferente The appetizer that they gave us it's a sup like idk how to explain it I really love this place My first time and and inlove of this Place I really recomended a lot read more

Sakura has changed immensely in the last 5-8 years. They have remodeled but not well. They have changed staff which has been disappointing. In general the food quality is not what it used to be and the Shows and chefs are lackluster. I wish it was as good as it used to be, but unfortunately it's not. I will not be recommending this on my blog or to family and friends. read more

This place never disappoints. Everyone is friendly and I always sit at the bar to watch the sushi being made. Today I got the Minion beverage. Simply delicious! I also got salmon ceviche, a roll I forgot the name of, and a seaweed-squid salad half and half mix. So good! I crave the ceviche and that is what brought me in today. Customer service was on point, very attentive to my needs. I will come back here again and again. Can always count on them to make my day! read more
