I spent my time waiting browsing Japanese magazines on either side of the restaurant. We were able to get a table just a couple minutes before our food came out. Despite the crowd, I didn't see anyone not have a seat once their food arrived. Maybe half of the clientele was Japanese, which is always a great sign for authenticity. Getting one full meal and one bowl to split between 2 people was the perfect amount to enjoy a full meal and still have enough leftovers for 1 later. My partner was not a big fan of the shredded daikon in the #2 combo -- it has a very strong flavor and distinct texture -- but I enjoyed it in combination with the sauces, sides, and salad. I will definitely be coming back to try more of the menu, probably on a slower weekday, fingers crossed.

The sesame seeds on the side was a nice touch but after a minute of pounding away for crushed sesame, the seeds were still whole. The tonkatsu meat was not evenly made as some of the edges were overfried as compared to the well fried middle portions. The restaurant is smaller and self-serve. Pickup order and drop off trays when complete.

We were staying in a hotel very near this restaurant. Out of my group of 12, I was the only one…read morethat decided to have hibachi for lunch. I saw that the place had a couple of bad reviews, but I decided to try it anyway. I'm sure glad I did! I didn't experience any of the complaints that were described in the bad reviews. I found the decor, ambience, and the people working there to all be pleasant. I ordered my usual hibachi meal... filet and chicken combo, fried rice, no vegetables. Of course, it came with soup and salad. The salad was fresh, and it was a nice size portion. The soup was just as expected. The chef appeared shortly and verified the orders of the few of us at the table. He was an older man. He was very skilled at his job. He didn't go overboard with the show part, and the food was cooked perfectly. This was actually among the best hibachi experience I've ever had. Both the filet and the chicken, were a good sized portion, and cooked exactly as requested. I can't say I cleaned my plate, but there wasn't enough left to ask for a to-go box! And that is just how it should be, in my opinion. The price was also very good! Less than I usually pay for similar meals. Honestly, I can't think of one thing that I have a complaint about. That evening, I was talking to my friends that I'm traveling with. I shared my experience with them, and that said "Okay, that's it. We're having hibachi for dinner!" All I can say is that, maybe the few bad reviews prompted a change, or maybe there was something else. But I'm happy that I gave Sakura a chance. They earned this review, by giving me a great lunch experience.

I was super impressed with the authenticity of this restaurant, especially given that it is in an unexpecting-looking plaza. I was by myself, so I sat at the sushi bar, but there's also tables in the restaurant. I was really happy with the service. The menu is genuinely the closest to an actual Japanese restaurant that I have seen in the Midwest. There are a lot of small plates and Izakaya style dishes. I got a sashimi trio ($45), a stir-fried pork dish ($9), and blanched asparagus with sesame miso paste ($8). I thought the small dishes were fairly priced. They offer a lot of special sushi/sashimi/nigiri options from Japan. Really impressed with this restaurant!

For my birthday, I was happy to try this place out since this location was close to home. Columbus is slowly becoming the place for all things foodie and geeky and I love that for us! This place is located on the 1280 W 5th Street and Northwest Blvd. There is parking in the front, and the restaurant is small and cozy. The seating is for parties of 4 to 5 but arrangements can be made so talk to a server. The menu offered everything from drinks, small place to ramen and I wanted to try more. We got the salt and pepper shrimp, the Kyushu Karaage (Japanese fried chicken), Hot tea and Takoyaki for a group of 5. Everything was piping hot and delicious and lightly seasoned to bring out the flavors of the overall dish. The servers were sweet and extremely helpful for explaining what things were and me, being a ramen nerd, could sit back and relax. I got the Kyushu Black Garlic Tonkotsu. It was so GOOD!! I love the taste of black garlic and the umami in the dish was so pleasant. The noodles were chewy, and the pork slices were so tender. The Tendernism! IYKYK. 5 stars for a great birthday meal that did not break the bank. Well, my friend covered my bill. :)

Pricing wasn't horrible, I actually thought it was well priced for what was ordered. The ramen I found to be slightly bitter, the beef bowl was delicious. The buns were good, but definitely just frozen steamed buns and way too much spicy mayo in all the dishes. It even came with the spring rolls which I would have preferred not a mayo based sauce. The spring rolls were flavorful but kind of soggy. The shop is cute and's kind of small/intimate. The best least was the services, I got take out but the young man who helped me had a huge smile and quickly got me my food. Overall, I'll probably be back

The food is always fire -- flavorful, fresh, and consistently good every time we come. You really can't beat the quality for the price, especially with how fair and reasonable everything is.

Not even any chairs at the counter inside. Oh, well, I'll take it home. Friendly service. The usual hibachi menu. I went with steak/shrimp/chicken. Got home and there was the standard massive portion, mostly rice, but still a lot of meat. The rice was very good, and probably very unhealthy. The steak was cooked a bit past the requested medium, but still tender, and tasty. The chicken and shrimp were also slightly overcooked, but again, still good. Very small portion of veggies, just cabbage and carrots. Pretty darn good, but I had hoped for sprouts and next time will pay extra for them and a bit more veggies, because I have to at least pretend to eat healthy. Prices feel a little high but are appropriate for this kind of food, with this quantity and quality. Spring for some more veggies, even at $1 per. Took a few minutes to make so order ahead if you are in a hurry, but really it was probably about 10 minutes so not bad. I'll be back.
