Food was good service, not so much. Seems disorganized. I didn't get a drink for 10 minutes. My first ticket I only got 2 of the 6 items I ordered. My next ticket got lost. I was there for an hour and a half, most of which I was waiting. $29.99 for all you can eat, not too bad, but I won't go here again. Not if you want to wait and wait just to have your order served. And hope that it was put in and not lost. Horrible experience. 食事は良かったですが、サービスはあまり良くありませんでした。整理されていないようです。10分間、飲み物を手に入れませんでした。最初のチケットでは、注文した6つのアイテムのうち2つしか手に入れませんでした。次のチケットが紛失しました。私はそこに1時間半いましたが、そのほとんどは待っていました。$29.99で食べ放題です。悪くはありませんが、もうここには行きません。ご注文が提供されるまで待ちたいのであれば、そうではありません。そして、それが入れられ、失われていないことを願っています。ひどい経験です。 read more

I didn't pay any attention to the all-you-can eat part and gleefully drove there with partner for date night. We decided to give it a go anyway and made our outing a culinary adventure, neither of us having supped at an all-you-can eat sushi restaurant. The staff were nice and spared little time in serving up our order. We started with Miso soup that was watery. The gyozo was dry and presented poorly. We ordered a variety of nigiri sushi and, whilst it filled the hole, it wasn't anything to write home about. The green tea ice cream was tasty. Before closing this review allow me to share that I'm a quarter Japanese, speak Japanese and lived in that beautiful country for 6 lovely years. If hungry pressed for time, we might, might return for a quickie lunch but we've definitely marked Sakura Sushi off our dinner list. read more

For an AYCE sushi place, it's an excellent value, the food is good and the service is good. The only reason I give them 4 stars instead of 5 is because of how they prepare their spicy tuna rolls. I've never seen a spicy tuna roll prepared the way they make it, even at AYCE sushi places, and it's not good. Besides that one exception, my experience overall was very good and I do recommend Sakura Sushi to anyone looking for an AYCE sushi place. read more

Stumbles onto this place after a long day of travel! The building can be deceiving but when you walk into Sakura, what a beautiful sight. First, the people were delightful. Ordering was easy and the food came out so quick! Of course, it's an all you can eat so we ordered a variety of things. All delicious! My favorite was the sashimi, which was so fresh. It was only 30.99 per person for dinner and well worth the price! Try it! We're considering going back for lunch! read more

Our second visit. Even better this time, probably because we knew what to order. And, yes, gluten-free soy sauce!!! I especially enjoyed the tuna sashimi, out of control roll, fried tofu and green tea ice cream. Not sure if I ate $30 worth but hubs made up for it. Great quality fish, efficient service, kind staff, and the clean restroom made SS a solid 5 for me. -EG Eats read more

Dinner with ayce apps, teriyaki, rice, noodles, udon, sushi, sashimi, and rolls. Decent selection and quality for $30.99. Sign on door shows new name: makoto. Would definitely recommend. Five stars. Gold roll and one below it with tuna were my 2 favorite rolls. The teriyaki salmon was excellent along with salmon roe sashimi. Salmon skin hand roll was also great. Will definitely be back. read more

This place is tucked away at the end of a strip mall with Target. There's plenty of parking. At lunchtime it's $19.99 all you can eat (in 2 hours). Lots of booths for parties of 4-6 and some table that can be pushed together to accommodate larger groups. The dining area is clean with numerous TVs to watch while you eat. Xia was our server. He took great care of us while we dined! It was fairly busy (maybe 75% full) but the service and food were top notch! My favorites were the Las Vegas and Out of Control rolls. Going to try the udon and soba when I return! read more

I recommend Makoto Sushi all you can eat sushi to all read more

Sakura Sushi - Hand rolled Salmon avacado with jalapeños - Japanese Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

We have become regulars here, dining in every 3 weeks or so. Today, Sunday afternoon, the place was quite busy. Not a problem, immediately seated at spacious booth. I'm pleased to see them busy, meaning quick turnover of fish, especially in the deadly summer! Food arrived quickly, exactly what was ordered, tasting fresh. I have never had an "off" tasting piece of sushi here. After a few 2nd round items , we were satisfied, a cup of green tea ice cream to finish. My rule for this hotter than hell area is...no sushi in summer ! The unknown handling of product is something to be aware of. We love Sushi, we like this place, we'll continue to chance it! read more

LITERLALY my favorite sushi spot ever. So many options, not fishy smells at all. Love it and want it to de open again

Been a while since I had last come here. This then we ordered a lot, it's definitely a great value for the price. Service is fast and they don't really delay things and keep checking in on you. The sushi this time, I felt in some of the rolls the portions were slightly lesser or thinner cuts. But however considering the value , it's definitely worth the price. Towards the end I even tried their ice cream. The green tea is an interesting flavor. First time trying, and I really liked it. The pork cutlets is pretty good as well. In terms of the sushi quality, id have given it a lower rating. But purely in terms of value for money I gave it full 5/5. But in the past I remember the sushi quality being better. Hope it was a one of experience read more

Favorite sushi place, great service, fresh seafood. Must try in the east valley. I always get sashimi, sooo good.

My husband and I were craving sushi so we decided to check this place out on a Sunday. Come hungry! The menu is great- they had everything from a wide variety of tempura, salad, sashimi, hand rolls, specialty rolls, ice cream. My favorites were the miso soup, crab tempura, and the specialty rolls. You can go wrong with any of the orders. Our orders came out fresh and in good timing. Our waitress was good and kept our orders coming. I'd come back again. read more

Do not come here the service is absolutely terrible. Its is labeled as a ayce but they take forever to bring what you order and when they do they never bring everything. The gentleman that was serving us didn't even know what we were waiting for and then didn't bring us the check we had to go up to the front to pay... terrible will not return. read more

With the price of other sushi places. And the quality you all look for. Sakura Sushi is absolutely the best AYCE Sushi place. I love sushi but the cost is ridiculous. This place is absolutely perfect. All that and the food quality is exceptional. Don't pass up this place. If you like/love Sushi this is the place to come! read more

We are so excited to find an AYCE sushi bar here! We loved everything about it! The food, the service, the ambience! We will definitely be back! read more

A new family favorite. I have come across Sakura sushi many times while looking for places to dine at in our area but I never knew they had AYCE! The reviews were promising so we tried it, multiple times now. The restaurant is big so it can accommodate a good number of diners at the same time. Service is attentive and food does come out pretty quickly, even when they are busy. We've been there only on weekends so far and only had to wait a bit for our sushi rolls once. We also got seated immediately in all 4 times that we have been there. I do not eat raw sushi (my husband does) so anywhere we go, we order mostly cooked and maybe 1-2 raw rolls. They had multiple great tasting cooked rolls and my husband enjoyed a couple of nigiris and raw fish rolls. They have a lot of appetizers, salads, noodle dishes, rice and soups to choose from. Ambience is average with tvs and it's not too loud even when the restaurant is busy. It's about $30 per person which is a great deal with all the good food you can get. We have become regulars here. read more

Food is always fresh and delicious, the service is always great every time I go, very clean and cozy.

I'm not a big sushi water, but I wanted to find a good place since my wife likes it and my grandson will be visiting next month. It was great, delicious food, attentive servers. I'm not real sure what I ordered, but it was all very good. I loved the miso soup, best I've ever tasted. I might just turn into a sushi addict after all. read more

Service was great! Quality of food ok. Salmon skin was over cooked, and tough to eat

The all you can eat option is awesome . The sushi is prepared a la carte as if you were ordering in a upper Manhattan sushi spot. The options are plentiful and made on the spot . The fish is ice cold and the sushi rice slightly warm, that's how immediate the cleaver to table is . Service is prompt and the decor dark and very Japanese , like a wooden laquer bowl. Dark with red accents. This is my go to spot when I get the urge for sushi. read more

Nice place, nice murals but ehhhhh..... was ok. But for $20 all you can eat .....?!? Price was good but still, wasn't anything special. The positive part is that the sushi wasn't laid out like buffett style , you order from their paper menu list and they make it. Also the service was awesome! Our waiter was very attentive and on the spot. read more

One of the few AYCE with sashimi on the menu without it being at an extra cost or a Premium option. Most of the apps are deep fried. Usually something you'd want after a few drinks in. So take that into account when ordering. The sashimi cuts are a good enough selection. My favorites were the mackerel, white tuna, and salmon from first to third. Not much of a sake drinker but they seem to have about 6-10 options for both dry and fruity types. I tend to just stick to a beer. Restrooms are clean but there's no toilet seat hygiene covers nor paper towels to dry your hands off with. And it's a pull to exit. Wait staff is always nice and the first few orders with rice rolls are decent ratio. read more

For a landlocked state, this spot was pretty good! The service was great and the sushi was good. We stopped by on a Friday evening and there was no wait. We were seated within minutes.

Finally, all you can eat sushi place near by. Finally gave this place a try. Nice selections of different type of food you can order which is nice. Pretty good selections of sushi. Like someone else mentioned, rolls are huge in size so it will fill you up quick. So if you want your money's worth stay away from rolls... Rolls were not too bad.. Seems pretty much same thing for most part. Udon and soba noodle soup was pretty good. Tuna was not the best, pretty low quality but the again I was at all you can eat. Over all not bad for all you can eat. If you want just sushi I would say this is not the place at least in my opinion. But if you want varieties of food with sushi this place is not bad. I think it was around $26 per person. I would come back here again if I want to stuff my face again. read more

For the price of lunch ayce, it's worth coming to get your sushi fix. They don't mess around with adding extra rice so your sushi is mostly rice and a tiny bit of everything else. Is it the freshest fish? We're in Arizona that doesn't exist but it's worth a try and visit (especially for lunch) read more

staff was friendly and got us seated quickly on a friday evening. However, i ordered salmon nigiri and the fish bones were still in the fish. I got an apology but i was offered no discount and obviously im not going to continue eating after that. Raw fish is already hard to trust but if they aren't even cutting it properly who knows what else they aren't doing to the fish to make sure it's served correctly. would not come back. read more

All You Can Eat Sushi! They offer a decent dining experience. The variety of sushi is impressive for an all you can eat place, with semi-fresh ingredients and beautifully crafted rolls. Their sashimi is pretty good, but smaller in cuts and nothing against the rules to order multiple times. Rolls were okay. Their udon noodles isn't bad but also nothing to write home about. I'd say the best thing was their yakitori, great flavor and texture (I ordered 2 more after I tried the first one). The ambiance is a lottle more loud with msuic going, so not a relaxed meal environment. The service is generally attentive, although it can be a bit slow during peak hours. Overall, Sakura is a fantastic choice for sushi lovers looking for decent value, where you won't leave hungry. $83+tip for a total bill for two, which include soke hakasuru sake and a Kiran light. read more

Sushi was very fresh but the rolls definitely made you full real quick because of the rice. Each roll had 8 pieces on the plate. Would recommend getting the sashimi instead to get the all you can eat experience Service was really good considering we had a party of 15 of us, but one of them is a baby. My bf couldn't make it but also if you're like him who is allergic to seafood there are other options on the menu to choose from. We celebrated my cousin's birthday today so we accomodated 3 dining tables to fit all of us. The only thing I'd want to change is that it's very hard to get everyone's orders in order. We had to write our names on the paper which we checked marked what we want on there. I thought it was a great idea at first but when the food came, it wasn't given by our names, the food was handed by what you ordered. Considering each of us forgot what we ordered and might have duplicates lol it would be nice to just have everything come at once by your name. Some of us waited for the rest of our food while some of us never got our food. Just chaos lol if you have a party of more than 6+ take a picture of what you ordered on that paper menu or take a note and check mark what you got Food I ordered that came: - Zuchinni Tempura - Miso Soup - Salmon Sashimi - Salmon Roll - Sakura Roll - Butter Pecan Food I ordered that never came: - Salmon Skin Roll I'd suggest getting the Miso Soup to start or to pair with. It was really good. Sashimi is a must to avoid eating too much rice on the rolls lol. I loved the Zuchinni Tempura, however they were quite stingy on it. 1 means 1 piece of it not given a few But by the time everything else came out plus we all were sharing, it was fine not to even ask where the rest of our orders are lol Just like other all you can eat restaurants, wasted foods are charged additional. I'd suggest a to go box if they offered that instead of an additional charge for leftovers. Would be convenient since I've seen to go orders from Uber Eats / Door Dash / Postmates. Just saying. Ambiance, well, we're asians-filipinos so we're pretty loud when it comes to parties and everyone else were just at a quiet medium voice. Plus there was a box fan blowing next to our table so I heard that too read more

Recently, I went here on a first date here as they suggested this location. From the name in Yelp I didn't realize it was all-you-can-eat establishment and I didn't check out the reviews beforehand to notice. I tend to eat smaller portions so the price point of $28.99 was pretty steep in comparison to what I could eat. Since this was the first time meeting someone, I didn't snap any photos. The food presentation was pretty average and the food taste was pretty standard as well. It was nice that it was made-to-order, but it still didn't seem to be anything extraordinary. If quantity is your thing, then this is the place for you. If quality is your thing, then I would skip this place personally. To each their own when it comes to all-you-can-eat sushi. read more

AYCE sushi for 20 bucks per person with unlimited food? Count me in! 2 hour limit in the restaurant and you will be charged for any leftovers. Service was adequate and the servers were welcoming. TEMPURA UDON (MY FAVORITE) ---------------- The tempura shrimp's flavor was seriously addictive. Such a soft batter and soft shrimp texture that melts in your mouth. Not overpoweringly salty udon broth with squishy udon noodles. Would recommend this dish as it doesn't make you too heavy and leaves your belly to taste more food! TAMAGO AND TOBIKO NIGIRI ---------------------------- The Tamago and Tobiko nigiri were nice palate cleansers. The egg in the Tamago nigiri tasted slightly sweet along with the fluffy rice. The Tobiko nigiri's fish eggs provided a great crunch with the seaweed and had a nice Umami flavor. GYOZA AND SEAWEED SALAD ---------------------------- Gyoza was mighty fine . The chicken and cilantro inside was so juicy that it ran down my chin. Skin was so crispy! Seaweed salad was very refreshing and balanced out the saltiness in each of these dishes. BUTTER PECAN ICE CREAM ------------------------- The butter pecan ice cream was ridiculously delicious! Could taste the pecan the most. Doesn't melt that fast either. So refreshing after all the salty goodness. Would definitely recommend this spot! The memories of Sakura Sushi are still lingering in my dreams. I'll have to give this the ultimate stamp of approval. read more
