Absolutely LOVE Greggs roll! Unique and fresh flavors all in one. Came here all the way from Nashville, and it was totally worth it. The edamame was perfectly cooked and salted as well. If you come to Sakura in Jackson, you have to give Greggs roll a try. 10/10 read more

I sometimes come to Jackson for work, and on my most recent trip I came here with a coworker. The Mexican Japanese fusion is fun, and the rolls are giant. I was surprised when the server said one roll per person was generally enough, but she was right. I got the Mexico roll, which was cooked and included crawfish, and I really enjoyed it. We finished with a deep fried cheesecake, which was delicious. It was very pillowy soft under the fried outer layer and finished the meal perfectly. The overall ambiance was casual with a lot of comfortable booths. I'd come here again on a future trip. read more

Sakura Restaurant - Combination lo mein with chicken beef and shrimp - Japanese Near Me - Jackson, Tennessee

Well Jackson, we've lost another good sushi restaurant. Sakura is no more. It has been bought out and converted by / to the "Taco vs Sushi" Corporation... and it sucks. The sushi now has no integrity and falls apart when you try to eat it. (better ask for a fork or spoon) The sushi rolls are filled with that standard Taco vs Sushi orange goo that appears to be a mixture of cheap canned tuna fish and low grade mayonnaise. That delicious Chinese food that the old Sakura used to make is long gone and has been replaced by surprisingly bad mexican style food. We weren't even offered chips and salsa when we were seated to eat. RIP Sakura read more

This has been my go to sushi restaurant in Jackson for over a decade. The food is good. That's not my problem with the restaurant. My problem, and the reason that I won't go there anymore, is the need to have Fox News playing at all times behind the bar. That's great if that's the brand of politics that you enjoy, but it has no place in a place of business. I shouldn't have to be inundated with propaganda just to enjoy a sushi roll. Sports, yes. Movies, yes. Political talk that was fined $787 million for telling lies about the 2020 election, and admitted in court that they're not really news but "opinion"..........no thanks, Joe. You can watch that at home. And the fact that you can't realize that? Very disappointing. read more

Thus used to be really good sushi a while ago. The quality went down. The flavor is okay still but not the best. The service is good they serve you in time. This used to be a 4-5 star sushi restaurant. Kampai beats sakura now. I put sakura number 2 out of 3 in sushi in jackson. The ambience is okay. Just give it a try its still OKAY/ 50/50 read more

We stopped here on a road trip and were pleasantly surprised by the fantastic vegetarian sushi! The portions were generous, and every bite was delicious. A perfect spot for a satisfying meal on the go. Highly recommend! read more

Large portions! Food was very good! My husband and I got three sushi rolls and then I had some egg drop soup and he had some salmon nigiri. All of it was delicious. Our waitress was great, very prompt in welcoming us and getting our orders. My husband also had the jalapeño pinapple (?) margarita and it was DELICIOUS! Definitely will be back! read more

It's been a while since I've eaten at this restaurant, but, it was such a big disappointment, I will never go back! I chose to eat here because in the past we had gotten good food here, but, also because all the reviews online WERE REALLY GOOD REVIEWS. BUT DO NOT BELIEVE THE REVIEWs. IT APPEARS SOMEONE MAY BE CHANGING THEM TO MAKE THEM LOOK A LOT BETTER THAN THEY ARE, BECAUSE MY SON TOLD THAT HE HAD SEVERAL BAD EXPERIENCES HERE, ALSO. To start with, the table was greasy dirty, like it hadn't even been wiped down. The waitress was cold & distant. The sushi itself was very poor & would not even hold together to eat it. The lomein was just okay. My husband ordered a Sprite to drink but what they gave us WAS NOT A SPRITE. And I ordered a Sweet Tea, which was watery & barely sweet. Also the food was overly expensive for the poor quality food we got. And towards the end of our stay we were treated like they just wanted us to go, even though it wasn't time for the restaurant to close yet (they rushed us out of the restaurant). I'm just writing this review to warn people not to eat here - DO NOT FALL FOR THE FAKE POSITIVE REVIEWS BEING GIVEN TO THIS POORLY RUN RESTAURANT! You will regret it, if you do. read more

I had a friend that once told me this was the best sushi she had ever had and she used to live in New York if that gives you an idea of some of of the food she is used to eating. Just sayin. read more

I have to go to this restaurant sometimes because my son and grandson say they have the best Alfredo rolls. If you don't like sushi, like me, I haven't found an alternative there that I like very much. I usually just get the chicken fried rice but it's not as good as Asia Garden's chicken fried rice. Luckily my son and grandson like Asia Garden's Alfredo rolls also. read more

I have gone to this place for years, but tonight our sushi rolls were anything, but the great rolls we are accustomed to. I guess they have taken cost saving measures by not adding the sauce to the roll which makes it taste incredible. It was so dry tonight, that we just stopped eating it. It is just not the same restaurant that it once was. Sakura can do better. Bring back those tasty rolls and don't take short cuts to save money. If your going to raise the price, make it great once again. read more

Always exceptional food and exceptional service. The Sexy Lady Roll is something everyone should try!!

Very suitable for vegetarians! Simple maki but tasty tamago. The miso soup was flavorful but not enough seaweed. The seaweed salad was great deserves 5 stars! The sweet dill cucumbers at the bottom of the salad was a good surprise! The tea was a little disappointing it's just green tea, but was not hot enough and missing green herb. I'm impressed for the good location and service, the food was extraordinary for the location. I can't about the fish thou! However once in town again will stop by again. The prices were very nice. read more

Rolls were so so and their "specialty rolls" were massive and a pain to eat. Real sushi isn't the size of a loaf of bread.

Was our first time having Japanese food. My teen wanted to try it. He enjoyed the experience and food. I thought the food was okay but the price was way more expensive then I was expecting. read more

We've found our go-to spot for sushi finally! I wish I'd have caught our servers name! She was delightful! She was attentive but not annoying! The sushi was great. Of course we all shared! The consensus was we liked the Alaskan and the Mike best. We also got tempura shrimp and it was light and fluffy,not greasy. Most definitely will be back! Yay us! We miss our city food! read more

Service was great. Prices are fair and overall a good sushi experience in a part of the country you might be a little shy on for sushi.

This place is really good and the rolls are huge! Prices are good and service is great! The atomic roll And Alfredo are good choices and the blue breeze martini is well worth the $7 Next time I will get here for two for one happy hour read more

Love the food here and the staff! I've never had one bad experience and have been coming here for a long time. It's always nice to come here it's very relaxing! read more

This is not your run of the mill sushi place. This place has a passion for making extremely beautiful and incredibly appetizing rolls. Many of the rolls are more than enough food for one person. My favorites are the Alfredo Roll, the Bubba Roll, and the Sunset Roll. I have had good luck with the service. The rolls can take 15-20 minutes to come out, but hey, it ain't fast food! The menu also includes a variety of other goodness. The gyoza are excellent, and the tempura items on the menu promise to feed the pickiest of eaters. There is lots of seating and the service is usually quite good. I have been dining here for six years now, and will continue to dine here many more. This really is one of Jackson's finest! read more

Sakura Restaurant - Alfredo Roll! Yum! - Japanese Near Me - Jackson, Tennessee

Was passing through Jackson and found this restaurant. It was easy on and off highway good food and fast service. Very reasonable priced.

Yes, this is a Japanese restaurant. It also serves " Chinese food. We ordered egg rolls, which were tiny, cold and all cabbage. My husband ordered Kung Pao Shrimp, the shrimp were rubbery and the food was cold. We did not send it back because when we sent the egg rolls back, they reheated them in the microwave. My paper steak wasn't bad, not hot but edible. We are both on disability, so our income is limited. It's a shame when we spend money and the experience is lacking. I will not go back there nor should you. The staff was nice. I miss the food from Chicago. read more

This used to be the hot spot in Jackson and parts all around for sushi. However, the competition has been tough and this restaurant is slipping. I noticed the rolls getting smaller for some time now. Today myself and two friends ordered our favorite "Alfredo roll". The crab meat was not good. Loud fishy taste. Sent it back and the manager said it was just that it was dry. We then concentrated on the second roll we ordered and it was fishy tasting also. Quality is definitely going down here. I hope they find a way to turn things around because I have always loved this place. 12/28/18: Been back a lot since this review and had good experiences. This has revived my faith in this venue. I still recommend it! read more

Still a Sushi rookie, but I Luv this place, can't wait 2 eat there again & again read more

The food is sooo good! As a sushi lover. I love to explore options people have done with sushi. They have both traditional Japanese dishes as well as really cool variations that include southern flavors! Honestly, I never would have thought to put Cajun spice on my sushi, or crawfish inside. Absolutely amazing variants! We had the Hamachi kama. Gomae, pork belly wrapped asparagus (very pork full!) and sesame covered spinach as appetizers. And a ton of sushi rolls. The portions are good south sized portions, not cali sized like I'm used to so take that into account. The server was very nice. read more

I loved their shrimp hibachi. They have a golden spider roll that is amazing also. Quick service and received food quickly on a busy night.

Sushi is so so good!! Servers are so polite and service is quick. Prices are very fair too, and the rolls are huge! Will continue to support this business! read more

Filthy filthy conditions. Flies were buzzing, mediocre food, not appetizing at all. Will not go back

I had the Phoenix roll and the sunset roll. Both were very good. The rice was properly flavored and prepared, which is the secret to a good taste combination in sushi. Also the rolls were huge. I will eat here again read more

Couldn't believe other reviews were so low! Sakura is a favorite and frequent spot for many Jackson natives - college students and non- alike. It's always a must-do when I come back to visit Jackson (went to school there). I like Sakura because of the tastiness, creativity, and affordability of the sushi rolls. You can get one large roll that'll fill you up for $10, or a few smaller ones. They have so many interesting & tasty combinations in their rolls - personal favorites being the Mexico roll and the Joyce roll. The edamame appetizer is good as well. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the quality of the sushi ingredients isn't the best I've ever had. It's pretty good, just not the best. But will always love Sakura regardless. read more

I visit TN once or twice a year, and this place had provided much needed taste of home and a break from meat and potato kind of food. It's extremely overpriced for what it is, but there aren't a lot of options, so I used to come here at least once during my annual 2 week visit with family in TN. However, my most recent experience was so horrible that I swore I would never eat here even if this was the only Sushi place left on earth. They moved to a bigger and nicer location a year or two ago. The host greeted us and seated us as soon as a table became available. The wait was about 30 min. on a Sat. night, which wasn't too bad. After we sat down, 20 min. passed without water, so we flagged down the server. She seemed annoyed and acted as if she was doing us a favor by taking our orders. I had questions about different options of Sashimi on the menu. Her answer was, "I don't know the difference. Nobody orders that one!" Shouldn't she have checked with the Sushi chef and asked what the dishes were if she didn't know what they were? None of our requests -- i.e. no scallions, dressing on the side, etc. was honored. After she took our order, people at the next table tried to get her attention, as they had been waiting for a long time. What she uttered next was simply unbelievable. She said, "You see all these people? I am busy, so just wait!" What the $#@$%@!!! I am not making this up. All of our jaws dropped. She came back with our food. Our orders were all wrong, but we were too afraid to say anything. We ate quietly and hurriedly, left with very little tip and swore that we would never return to this place. It isn't the best Sushi, but the food itself is acceptable for what you can get in a small "city" in land locked TN. Although overpriced, it's still the cheapest Japanese restaurant in Jackson. These are the reasons I used to eat at this place, but no more! My family in TN and I are taking our business to Asahi. read more

I know it sounds strange, but one of the best sushi places in the Country is in Jackson, TN! I have been coming here for about 14 years whenever I am near Jackson. They have never let me down. Their rolls are creative and the choice is spectacular! There are so many to choose from it is hard to decide what to get but whatever you decide, the fish is always fresh and delicious! If you are in Jackson, give it a try! I can suggest the Phoenix Roll, the Sunset Roll and the Alfredo Roll for sure. read more

I didn't expect to find such great sushi in BFE and this restaurant did not disappoint! The California roll was a little mushy but the Ebi and Unagi were great. I got a salmon skin roll that I had to eat with chopsticks because it was unwieldy but the flavor was excellent. My husband got the steak and shrimp lunch combo special and it was perfect. The service was prompt, courteous, and attentive. Just a wonderful meal! read more

It is okay sushi. Can't comment on the other food... If you are like me and most sushi eaters, you would like to have awesome sushi not just okay. Considering that it is in a city with more of a "small town" mentality, this is one of the few choices for sushi. If you are familiar with what awesome sushi really tastes like and are in the mood for some fabulous rolls, then skip this place and drive to Memphis. If you want fantastic sushi take a drive to Birmingham to Thai Emerald. If you gotta settle for a Jackson sushi restaurant drive to the South Side of town. Also, this restaurant seems to be popular so it tends to be very busy, service can be slow and the price is too high for the quality and lack of flavor you get. read more

My husband and two kids went there for a spur of the moment dinner. We weren't sure what to get. We always go for something new we haven't tried before. The waitress was amazing she helped us out with all of our questions. She was attentive and kind. The food we ordered was great up until my husbands food came out. It was far to hot. My kids and I were done eating before he could even take a few bites. Would I go back? Heck yeah. Would we order the same thing. No! read more
