Quaint little place.\\n\\nWe were there for an early dinner…but it felt oddly empty and like a cheap date spot. Hard to explain…it was also overwhelmingly PINK. I love Sakura as much as anyone, but this was a bit much. I feel like they were trying to make it feel like a cherry blossom picnic…but it just wasn’t for me.\\n\\nI think our table was the most lively and happy, so thankfully we had good service. They were quick and attentive, and answered all our questions.\\n\\nThe ramen was very good. Great flavor and good portions. The corn was a bit much…we don’t really care for corn in our ramen. But, the gyoza was either old or frozen. Not something we would order again. We did enjoy their boba teas and took some to go.\\n\\nThe bathroom is not good…so avoid it if possible.\\n\\nMaybe next time, we’ll just order the food to go.

It is sooo delicious here, love their tofu plate, best I've ever tasted

Walking in it smells like urine and I thought it was just me because I’m pregnant and my smell is everywhere but it wasn’t. The friends that came with me also mentioned it. I would have left if it wasn’t for our friends that was with us who recommended this place. I would have missed out on their croquette and the spicy chicken ramen with tofu instead of chicken was delicious . I wish they would have a better vegan broth. The description of it sounded too bland.

super amazing tasting food. friendly staff. food is always great and the ambience in the restaurant is all good vibes and the decor is cute.

Very DELICIOUS! Food tasted great!\\nNice atmosphere! Definitely will be back and recommend!

Very tasteful. Highly recommended!??

Food was great, the place is very clean, and the ramen portions were good. The lunch orange chicken was very good, the flavor was not overpowering and it was cooked perfectly. Very crisp.\\nDefinitely a repeat

First time customer review: Walking in, I noticed the pretty, pink Sakura tree and the Japanese artwork. It does have that feel of being in Japan. I ordered edame and the black garlic ramen. Both were good. However, the service was less than desirable. My server was nice, but I barely saw them. I had to ask another server for a refill, and what made it worse was that I had to wait for about 10 min for someone to bring my bill. All my plates were stacked and pushed away from, so it was very obvious I was done. I feel the other server was doing more than the other as I watched her run around cleaning tables and helping the other customers around me. I didn't see mine upfront at all.

Normally I get a box with a decent sized portion but I’ve always ordered one calamari. This time I order the calamari and it is as it appears here. No other words to describe it other than them splitting one whole order in two boxes. Pretty sad as this is one of my places I go to for food at least 2x a week. So be aware do not order the calamari to go, especially not two of them!

Love this place. Very friendly staff with cute decor. Food is traditional Japanese and on point.
