I never write reviews but this place went above and beyond! Came here to celebrate my 20th birthday with my friends and family and our waitress went above and beyond. Coming in I requested a table for 9 people and was seated immediately after the staff moved tables and chair around for us. Our waitress was very patient while we waited for our table to arrive. Taking our order she was very friendly as well, and all our food came out at the same time. She also gave me a special glass with stars on it since I was the birthday girl, haha, and kept referring to me as such. My sister made a cake for me and was nervous about it being allowed in, but our waitress was very kind about it and even asked to try some lol. It was very sweet. She even brought me out a little mochi with a lot candle in it as well, and put tinfoil on the bottom of the candle so wax didn’t melt on it. We used that same candle on my birthday cake, and my sister in law tried lighting a match but she was too far away and it went out before reaching the candle. Our waitress offered to light it for us right away. She was very attentive to all our needs! Long story short, our food was really good, it was a cute ambiance, and everyone enjoyed our time here. Thank you so much, you went all out!!

So delicious. We order from here several times a month. Tonight we ordered the blossom roll and it was delightful! Sashimi always tastes fresh. We appreciate you guys

I’ve been driving by this restaurant for years and finally decided I needed to try it out. I’m so glad I did! The food and service was outstanding hands down. Construction in the area can make parking a bit challenging, but it’s worth the walk. Consider visiting this little jewel in downtown Waukesha, I know I will.

Went to Sakura Japan for my birthday, had a wonderful evening. Sake was smooth, sushi was beautiful and tasty, must try their pork dumpling! I ordered the beef boolgogi and my boyfriend ordered chickenkatsu. Always starts with a nice salad with a peanut dressing, entrees come with miso and AMAZING white rice. 10/10 definitely coming here again.

Awesome food, excellent service. Sushi quality was very fresh and the portions were filling. Price was also reasonable for good quality dining. Chef Jin doesn’t disappoint;) Definitely would come back 10/10
