    AYCE dinner $21.99. Spider roll, white tuna, tuna, yellow tail, shrimp & squid.
    Jennifer W.

    We were craving sushi and the fiancé has been wanting to try Sakura for a whole. The AYCE dinner is $21.99, but the selection is kind of limited. The sushi chef kept missing items from each round of of our AYCE selections (half of our nigiri first round; two rolls second round). The quality of the fish was ok, but nothing was super great. The best tasting nigiri was surprisingly the white tuna (which I normally don't like). The fish to rice ratio is actually kind of generous! For the rolls, I kind of wished you had that option for half rolls or hand rolls to try more items. I love salmon skin rolls, but they are so much better as a hand roll! One roll that stood out was their sweet potato & eel tempura roll. It had way too much sweet potato and you couldn't taste the eel over the soggy tempura batter. If you go for the AYCE, you might be disappointed when you start noticing that half of their speciality rolls are not on the AYCE list. The best part of their AYCE was the nigiri being generous pieces of fish in proportion to rice. I wish that they had more speciality flavors like garlic tuna or something spicy for a garnish sauce like other sushi restaurants. Yelp 100 Challenge - 63 of 100

    Spicy tuna and dragon roll
    Janny K.

    This place is good. Good service. Quality of the food is good. Food came out in a decent time. First time having a salmon skin that's crunchy on the inside In which I've enjoyed. Food came in decent sizes, not too large So I can try out other food. We had the all you can eat special. For lunch $18.99 special, there wasn't much option so we had to get the dinner $21.99 ayce (option was just the sashimi) Cons: not much options on the menu for ayce, no free dessert /miso soup/ teriyaki dishes, uni roll, sashimi salad, mussel cheese, no bake rolls, etc. So I wasn't as satisfied as I would be like other sushi places. So I will give 3 stars because I wasn't fully satisfied with their limited options.

    Salmon Lover's roll on the left Dragon Roll on the right. Above them is the unfortunate piece of bone I bit into.

    Disclaimer: I got delivery during the Super Bowl. This may have affected the quality. I ordered miso soup, edamame, and the popular Dragon Roll and Salmon Lover's Roll. The delivery was fast and very friendly. No issues there. Not thrilled with the food, though. The soup and edamame were fine, not noteworthy. There was something off about the rolls. A flavor I couldn't put my finger on. Still, they weren't awful. I was extremely off-put, however, when my first bite into the salmon roll contained a rather large bone. I've eaten a lot of sushi in my life and I can't say I've ever gotten a bone before. Honestly it killed my appetite and definitely affected this review. :/

    so overstuffed with rice with a small sushi piece
    Jerry L.

    Tried the all you can eat. so overstuffed with rice. rice doesnt taste like sushi rice. its got a strong vinegar taste. this is more of a fast food teriyaki restaurant quality sushi spot. quality is very mediocore. 2 stars for a very nice staff but theres only 1 sushi chef and the service is slow. they kept forgetting our orders and we didnt even order much. they gave us some comped roll for our AYCE sushi stuffed with rice and cream cheese to fill us up before we even got our 1st sushi we ordered. stick with Hon, momijis, or maki sushi for authentic sushi place is chinese owned which can be why its not that great.

    Chirashi Box
    Ashley M.

    I had come here for lunch with my coworkers and noticed that it was actually pretty empty. I had ordered the chirashi box (sashimi over rice) and it was pretty good. Everything here was nothing more or less than my average expectations. It was great knowing that they could accommodate to the fact that my coworker wanted the E1 lunch special. But since she doesn't like raw fish, they were kind enough to make an exception and substitute he first roll with a crunch roll. It didn't seem possible at first but then the waiter went to the back and asked and got the okay. After we had ordered our food, we decided we wanted to order the Lion King roll as well. Our waiter simply told us "it would take too long," which made it really awkward. Again, in the end we still got it and it came out in a decent amount of time (it seemed the same as any other roll). So aside from the awkward moments with the waitress, I say this place is nothing out of the ordinary. Not amazing, yet not terrible.

    Today was a weird SoCal day, it actually rained. So my wife and the rest of the family was craving some sushi, hot sake and warm tea for comfort. We were so lucky to have found this place. The food and service was great. Talking to the waitress we found out that there is new ownership. The sashimi was fresh and the rolls were bomb. We did the ACYE with the crunchy roll, spider roll and had ton of sashimi. Must try for someone who is craving sushi around the area! Oh the hot sake was money! Cheers!

    Yummy Roll. Hamachi on top!
    Emily C.

    We came here for lunch and my coworker is allergic to avocado. Thankfully they got our orders correctly as I love avocado. Yummy Roll was actually pretty good with hamachi on top. Shrimp was small but had a nice texture unlike the softer ones I've had at other places. Spicy mayo sauce was not that spicy but if you're not used to eating spicy foods, it has a bit of a heat. Spiderman Roll was pretty good but topped with panko crumbs and I didn't particularly like their unagi sauce. The crab itself was coated with breadcrumbs rather than tempura. Not bad with a coupon for buy 2 rolls, get one of lesser value (like crunchy roll) free, but I wouldn't make it a point to eat there again. Service was pretty cool and they revamped the place since it was a Shanghai place before.

    So good!

    My daughter and I went here on a Saturday around 1:00pm. We both got AYCE, kids are half price and it also includes a drink. The sushi were fresh and delicious. The sushi rolls come in 8 pieces and are huge. We ate around 4 rolls (salmon, spicy salmon, eel w/tempura shrimp and tempura shrimp). It got us really full. I will definitely come back with the rest of my family.

    "AYCE" menu
    Kimberly T.

    Anyone who says this place is better than Sushi Kuni probably lost all their tastebuds. Came in tonight with my boyfriend. Probably should have walked back out after we realized NO ONE else was in the restaurant. It was prime dinner time too???? Anyways, we ordered off their AYCE menu and let me tell you, that is the SADDEST AYCE menu I have ever seen. TOTALLY NOT WORTH $28.99/person!!! We only did 1 sad round because the fish is NOT fresh. My boyfriend just threw up because he felt sick after eating. We left the restaurant still hungry and out $72. Go to Sushi Kuni or Sushi Me instead. We only tipped because we felt bad for the guy serving us. NOT one table came in during the time we were there, that should tell you NOT to go into this establishment.

    Love this place, food are amazing. High quality fish, if you like sushi come try this place, you will love it. Definitely going back soon. Service were good and owner was really friendly too.

    Tuna Lovers' Roll. Just the right amount of kick...plus 1. Delicious food. Great company. Attentive staff.
    Adrienne T.

    We enjoy this place for its genuinely nice staff and decent sushi. What I love most is that it is rarely crowded. Would give 5 stars, but it feels like almost every one of their specialty rolls is based on the California Roll and I'd much rather have real fish and less mayo in my diet. A favorite is the Foothill Roll which has jalapenos and some bite! Miso soup could be better. Good people and a great little joint for a quick meal.

    Renée T.

    Best sushi food in the area. Friendly service and good quality food. This is my first time, but will come back again for sure.

    Best sushi place in town and amazing staff !!

    I am surprised that this place was half empty…read more I really liked this place. Its a good spot to hangout. 4 LCD screens had news, Miyazaki anime and their chashu torched on the repeat. The food was prepared within timely manner. The tan tan men took slightly longer. The broth was great, not crazily salty but got a kick to it. The chashu wasnt too fat but got a good mixed of marbling. The portion was good. I was full without having side dishes. The waitress was attentive and friendly. Overall, I think this place deserves a 4.5 out of 5.

    I had such a hard time deciding on what to get because everything looked so good here! I opted for…read morethe shoyu ramen and had no regrets. There's an option to request for less salt in the broth which I really appreciated. It hit the spot without making me feel like I sacrificed my kidney. The texture of the fresh noodles were cooked perfectly and the broth had just the right punch to it without being too oily. The chashu had the right amount of fattiness. My friend got the tonkatsu red and loved it. He's not normally someone that compliments food so I was a bit surprised. We both wiped our bowls clean and left no noodz behind. We also ordered a shareable agedashi tofu which was delicious as well. Service was great. The staff was polite and checked in on us a few times. The space is very modern and well kept. There's a lot of tables so it isn't a problem bringing larger groups here. Parking is very easy since it's in a huge lot. It's been awhile since I've found a ramen spot that thoroughly impressed me. I can't wait to be back to try the rest of the menu items!

    I had probably the best restaurant experience I've ever had this past Monday evening at Tokyo Soul,…read moreand it wasn't just cuz of the delicious fare, but also because of [& overwhelmingly so] the abundant hospitality that was shown to me and my friend. (: How it started: I showed up a couple min prior to their 5:30pm opening time and got welcomed in. Before I even sat down, a stranger at the corner table asked if I liked beer, to which I said yes, so he recommended the Suntory premium malt draft beer. I decided to go ahead & order it and liked it quite a bit & let the table of friends know. Before I knew it, I'd be introduced to Stan, one of the sunniest people you'll ever meet. He & his friends pretty much make the big decisions for the mall and are somewhat more involved w/ a handful of places like Tokyo Soul. It was such a privilege to be on the receiving end of their warmth, generosity, and openness. My friend & I ended up getting to try some of the items they're planning to introduce the following week (which I won't post pics of, just to keep it a surprise :P) as we continued getting to learn s'more about our new friends, interspersed by the continuation of my & my friend's own convos. We felt lucky that we got to be served by Edward too (a mentee of Stan's), who usually doesn't work that shift, but his friendliness was definitely one of the first things I noted as I got seated. The hospitality that night outshined the food only because it was like nothing I've experienced in LA. However, the food can hold its own, and though my conversations w/ my friend + Stan & co. meant I was eating my pork katsu curry rice way past its prime state, the dish was still so flavorful that it was a delight to eat even cold. What a Monday night to remember. Thank you Stan & co. for taking care of us so well!

    I always pass by the spot but with a toddler, the hours of operation never really worked for us…read morewhere I can sit down to eat a meal inside or it's closed when we are here in the mall. Only option was finally to get takeout today. A little pricey for what it is. Not much rice or curry. Didn't really fill me up after paying almost $50 for sharing beef curry rice medium spice and hayashi rice. It came with miso soup on the side and bc of the cyclospora outbreak, they weren't serving salad so refunded me $4. The beef in the curry rice was too beefy and chewy. The medium spice didn't really have a kick to it. The meat in the hayashi rice tastes like hot pot meats and the flavoring in that didn't have enough OOOMPHH if you know what I mean. Since it's located in the mall, there's plenty of parking available. This restaurant is on the 2nd floor right next to Nordstrom.
