Having worked in Japan I am very picky when it comes to sushi. I avoid most of the raw fish offerings that you often find in places that add it to their menu of 30-50 items. In my opinion, grocery store sushi is a risky option. Even when the fish is good the rice is not authentic and often falls apart when you try to eat it. Good sushi takes experience and dedication.

By far the best sushi in town. Will not go anywhere else. It can take a little time to get it but it’s wayyyyy worth it. Hats off to the chef. The lady who runs the food is always very delightful as well. Highly recommend this fabulous place

Great food and Good pricing, not the best ambiance. Service was a little slow, but it was dinner, I think that’s the only meal they serve.

I’m surprised sushi were very small, maybe because it’s my first time to visit California?Everything was like sample.

Easily the best sushi in town. Perfect prices and portions, the chef and waitress are always nice and welcoming. I love that they have authentic sushi, not sushi drowned in sauces and extra stuff.

1st Time there last night. We went there because of the reviews. When we arrived the building was small and older. We walked in and the inside is smaller than expected but the service was good and food was delicious. We will definitely come back. You can taste the sushi was fresh and good quality. The tempura appetizer was cooked perfectly. Don’t let the appearance of the building scare you. If you have a bigger group I would call the beautiful waitress ahead of time!!!!

The best sushi spot North of Sacramento. Very no nonsense, just straight up delicious sushi for a great price. It can take a little while, but it’s worth the wait as the sushi chef is very skilled and really cares about the quality.

Sakura is my favorite sushi. The sushi is always consistent and delicious. It’s a one man, one server operation. I recommend the Tuna Poke and Erica Roll. The prices are very reasonable. Hours are limited so it’s best to go early.

HANDS DOWN THE BEST I’VE EVER HAD! Only open at night hours are a bit wonky but it’s worth the hassle great prices and a true taste of Japan. The Chef and owner is an older gentleman classically trained in Japan from Japan and has my full respect he makes food an art form his wife is a wonderful lady and very friendly and accommodating. No fancy bells and whistles here just good authentic fantastic sushi at a fantastic price.

Okay first and foremost this is not authentic, And certainly not traditional. That being said the chef is probably a great chef serving good food tailored to American tastes. You cannot serve proper sushi being this far away from a port with fresh fish.
