    Teriyaki Beef and Shrimp
    Karen B.

    Do yourself a favor and come here with your friends. Large, comfortable dining room and the menu has fantastic variety!! We shared an Eel Avacado Sushi roll for starters. Fresh and delicious!! My husband had the Spicy Meso Ramen, which included Crab Meat, Grilled Pork, Bamboo shoots and boiled egg. He noted that it was delicious, but only really had one bite that was "spicy". I ordered the Teriyaki Steak and Shrimp. The beef was tender and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. I put Yum Yum sauce on my fried rice and was in heaven! We also had our favorite drinks, Yuengling beer for him, Cabernet for me. Our server Ingrid was top drawer!! Please check it out!! Note: we left at 6:30pm on a Saturday night and there was a line at the door.

    The food was delicious and presented beautifully. The servers were kind & helpful. The kitchen was moderately fast, it was a reasonable wait time. The interior of the building was beautiful and set the mood

    I came here with friends the other day and I enjoyed my time here! The sushi is affordable! I only paid around $9 per roll and it was pretty good. Some of the rolls were a little messy but it was good. It's definitely a nice place to go to with friends or whomever.

    I've only been here once, but I was very pleased! I thought the ambiance was nice--not extremely fancy but seemed clean and bright. I was a little hesitant towards ordering Vietnamese pho (rice noodle) at first since it's a Japanese restaurant with Chinese elements, but the pho was actually really good! Broth was very flavorful, beef was nice and tender and they gave a good amount of it, and there were a lot of noodles which I love!! Only thing is that the bean sprouts and the basil was not as fresh as I prefer, but otherwise it was really good. And o another thing I loved was that they had bigggg portions so I felt super satisfied but if you have a smaller appetite that might be something to be prepared for. And I think service was good too so overall I had a great experience :)

    Having lived in Hawaii for three years, it was painful picking my favorite sushi place in town being so far from the ocean. I've come to terms with the fact that I'm probably gonna have to eat sashimi that is thawed and I'm OK with that now as long as it's still good quality and as fresh as it can be. My kids and I, who are also sushi obsessed, have decided this is our favorite sushi restaurant in town. (My Thai second) We have definitely tried lots of the others out. We usually come during the happy hour time because my kids typically just like edamame, potstickers, & a simple salmon roll. I love getting the avocado salad (dressing is delicious.) then I either get the tuna Tataki or a fancy larger roll depending on how hungry I am. My only complaint is I used to get the hot sake until I realized they warmed it up in the microwave and that was a bit of a turn off to me so now I just stick to water or a glass of wine. My favorite part about this location has been my servers. Both of my regular servers were extremely hospitable and friendly and consistently delivered great service. There is ample parking. Other guests coming in for teriyaki grill items seemed very content also.

    This was my first trip to Sakura 15 and definitely won't be my last. They're new and dealing with a good problem: word on the street is they are really good AND they're perfect for carry out which in my case meant a 20-30 minute delay on my food. I wasn't happy with that but the food itself made up for it easily! This location has been 2-3 Asian cuisine places in the past but they didn't last. I pray S15 does. Decor is ultra modern with an Asian twist. I didn't dine in so I don't know how service is but they were practicing social distancing well due to Covid-19 as I watched he room for quite a while. I ordered the steak and scallops dinner which came with a huge portion of both plus fried rice in great packaging. Egg roll included: The taste was great, it was hot (obviously it was just cooked and I picked it up myself and it's a 10-15 minute drive home). I also ordered a side of noodles which was dirt cheap and could feed an army. I ordered way too much because I had no idea what to expect. Others in the group had chicken and steak hibachi dinners. All enjoyed their food and we had leftovers for two days. The 'maybe we should order extra rice or noodles' is not necessary as I learned. Pricing was so good I just assumed small portions. The sushi appetizer we ordered (just a couple small rolls) were just ok. If I was looking for sushi for dinner I might look elsewhere but I usually mix and match so this will be my go-to. There was just nothing to the rolls for me but again i was overwhelmed by the hibachi side so that may have something to do with it. I'll order sushi again to see what I think. This place is great. 4 stars for now due to the delay and sushi but when I return it may adjust up to 5! Typing this on an iPhone so if I made a typo or to I apologize lol

    Spicy tuna (where's the tuna?) - California roll - IU roll
    Jamie C.

    Usually this is a great Japanese restaurant but tonight not so much. We ordered spicy tuna, California roll, IU/Bloomington roll, sushi sashimi combo, chicken fried rice... A lot of food. Nothing was spicy. The fried rice has a lot of chicken pieces and rice that's it. Not egg, onion, peas.. very uninspired. All in all very disappointing. IDK, maybe they gave us the wrong order?

    Decent parking. Short wait time. Friendly staff that approach you the right amount of times, not too often, not too little. They are a laid back environment where you can bring your laptop and chill. The sushi is great! Very fresh. This is exactly what a sushi bar needs to be. I recommend going during lunch hour on a Tuesday.

    College town gets big city sushi. The location is a strip mall. The town is Bloomington. The food was definitely a be back. They make great fresh, hot foot with generous portions. Eat in or get delivery on door dash. Either way you will love the food (and probably have enough for two meals). Come and enjoy - sushi, Udon, poke bowl, teriyaki ... all were awesome!!!

We think sushi bar is the best sushi in Bloomington and their prices are amazing. I bring my family from Chicago here every time they visit and it's always a hit. Excellent lunch menu as well.

    Good for casual Japanese dining. The restaurant is nicely designed (you can tell when you walk in…read moreit's a sushi restaurant) and I was seated in a cool semi-private booth. I thought the country music threw off the vibe a little. The staff were very polite. I would say the pace of service was leisurely but not nearly as slow as I had feared given some of the reviews. If anything, I had to wait a while to order after I was seated, but my food came out in a totally reasonable amount of time after that. I had the unaju and tempura ice cream. The salad that came with the meal was very basic, but the unaju was good. The eel was very flaky. The daikon tasted a little funny to me though. The presentation in the box was very nice. I really liked the tempura ice cream too. I've only had tempura ice cream once before, and this was a little different with a coating that was less crispy and more cakey. It was big, with two very generous scoops of ice cream. Good size for sharing. I felt like everything was worth the price and I would eat here again.

    Excellent Thai restaurant with high marks for food, service, and atmosphere…read more I've tried the Thai fish cakes, sweet and sour saute, pad bus sa ra com, mango sticky rice, and Thai iced tea and coffee. The savoury dishes were all super flavourful, cooked well, and generously portioned. Maybe this has something to do with the dishes I got, but I think the flavours here are generally more intense than the other Thai restaurants I've tried in Bloomington, and their spice levels might be a little higher. I've been somewhat underwhelmed by level 3 (out of 5) at other places, so I tried level 4 the first time I ordered here, and it was a little too hot, so I went back to level 3 the next time, and it was just right. The Thai tea and coffee were both very good, especially the coffee. It almost tasted chocolatey. The service is consistently on top of it. I was there on Valentine's Day, and they were slammed but had enough staff on the floor for it; the food was quick as usual and everyone was still very friendly. I also love the atmosphere here. The building is one of the converted houses on 4th St, and there are different dining rooms, some with lots of windows, all filled with interesting decor, and there's also a very nice patio during the warmer seasons. The only problem here is, unless there's a back entrance I don't know about, I don't think the building is wheelchair accessible; you have to go up a few stairs to get to the main entrance.

    Got hibachi, we always get the chicken and steak, prices have gone up since we started coming here…read moreso for 2 adults with s&c, you're looking at around 75-100$. I got the shrimp tempura, and it was cold, and tasted like it was yesterdays. No crunch to the tempura whatsoever. i asked if they make it per order or one giant batch then use throught the day and the lady looked very confused. Ice cold shrimp, soggy breading, not a good mixture. Ive never had an issue with the tempura. Dinner was excellent of course. Recommend 10/10 Might want to skip sushi though. I dont recommend that. So I've read some of the reviews about how this place is really dark and dingy, when you first walk in lights are on you can see what you're doing you can see everybody there's a bar to your right and there's Booth seating for non hibachi. When you walk through the doors you're right at the desk to check in. If you look straight you can see the Hibachi room. This is a darker room so it can be more intimate. With the whole fire going on the grill, keeping it dim in the room gives it a "wow" factor and to set the mood/ambiance. Its not so dark you cant see, its just not as bright. If it's a bright room and you're having all of these fire tricks going on it's not a big wow factor. I've never had a metallic taste happen in this restaurant, nothing is wrapped in tinfoil, and I've been coming here since I moved here in 2010. Now you can sometimes get overcooked food here if the chef is overworked, but as long as you talk to them and tell them that it is overcooked they'll remake it for you. Or they'll take it off your check. Everyone here is easy going even on a super busy day. I've never had attitude from anybody. Also they don't use a bunch of sauce to Overcoat your food with flavor. A lot of other places will just load it up with teriyaki sauce and the other sauce that I can't think of the name of but the reason why they do that is because the food isn't fresh here the food is fresh. They use fresh ingredients. I've been to other Hibachi places where in their vegetables they add corn and green beans which ruins the whole flavor and then when they're cooking on the grill they add jarred garlic which is a whole different flavor that doesn't mix with the Hibachi experience. Everything is cut in front of you so if you don't think that your chicken is correctly colored you can see it and you can tell them. Again if you don't like something TALK TO THEM. They dont bite.

    This place has went downhill in the past ten years. Now it is overpriced and mediocre at best. The…read morehibachi lacked flavor. The service is nothing to write home about. Will not go back.

There are a few tables inside and outside but everything is packed to go. I ordered a Godzilla roll. The cashier was nice and my roll was prepared quickly. The Godzilla roll was inexpensive but small. At first I thought the roll also had an uncharacteristically fishy taste, but I think that unexpected flavor was just been cooked fish. The fish was thinly sliced and I didn't want to dissect the roll to confirm, but that's what it seemed like. (Also, it's been more than 48 hours and I never got sick, so it probably wasn't bad fish.) The menu description of the Godzilla roll just says "4 kinds of fish", so it's possible that includes cooked and I just wasn't expecting it. A more specific description would have been helpful. I liked the roll inside a roll concept, but didn't really like the combination of cooked and raw (or whatever was giving it that specific taste) and was left wishing there was some sort of vegetable in the roll. I But for cheap sushi, there was nothing else really wrong with it, it just wasn't to my taste. I'm not itching to go back, but if I wanted sushi or similar fast again, I'd consider giving them another try to see if something else appeals to me more.
