Reviews for Sakura Tappenyaki Sushi in Kapolei, HI

I had a great experience, the food was delicious fresh.. My waitress (Christine) was amazing! She was super friendly, and very... attentive! I had beef tataki as an appetizer, some ebi and tuna nigiri sushi and for my main I ordered Teppanyaki, filet mignonand chicken w/ fried rice. Came with miso soup and side salad, white rice (or for $2 you can upgrade it to fried rice. Thefilet mignon was about a $6 upcharge.... It though that was reasonable. Read more

Chef Collin was incredible ????!!! ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????His food was delicious ???? I was... on a cleanse so I ordered the vegetables but it was so delicious!!! Highly recommend and also the price is so good! •Hibachiis the grill you sit at and you need 4 minimum to order there. Highly recommend for any parties, birthday, wedding rehearsal,girls/guys night out. They can do it family style or have it more 21+ with the choice of music and also the Sake shots (or yourchoice)they give you during the grilling!! Such a great time!! We did it family style for the first time, but we are reallythinking of bringing our birthday/wedding parties here!!! Read more

Service was excellent you can tell their staff is trained properly they work in tandem. From the miso soup to the specials their... menu is amazing. I got the chicken plate and the seasoning was next level, being a chef I thought by chopping the chicken sosmall it would be dry and I was dead wrong so juicy and flavorful. We sat out doors the ambience and lighting is everything. Read more

Food was absolutely delicious but our experience was not that good. We were seated quickly but took about 20-30 minutes before... we could place our order. While we were waiting for our food a cockroach casually walked onto our table. We receive our foodabout 30 minutes later and it’s delicious but we see a hair mingled in the food. Our waitress was very polite & friendly butshe never checked on us and when we needed something we had to ask a different server so our original waitress could bring theitem to us. This would take us 10 more minutes. Food was good but we will not pick this location next time. Read more

My family of five (3x kids) heard great things about Sakura and decided to try the place out. First off, the outer decor as you... walk up to the restaurant is beautiful with water fountains, LED displays, and the outer patio area of the restaurant. As wewalked inside, we were enthusiastically greeted by the host and she took us to our table. All the servers were tremendouslywelcoming and polite! Their positive attitude allowed us to become comfortable as soon as we sat down. We ordered appetizers anddrinks almost immediately. My husband ordered the cocktail "AMF" and is recommended if you like strong drinks with a good taste.The bartender definitely DOES NOT spare the alcohol and is very generous! I wanted to try the "Hello Kitty" shot so we orderedtwo. Let me tell you, they were so good that I forgot to take pictures!!! I ordered the "Salmon Combo" and it seemed to justmelt in my mouth. First off, I love salmon and it is my favorite. I have tried salmon everywhere I've been on Oahu and mainland.The salmon at Sakura is by far, the BEST I've ever had! I would for sure recommend it! We ordered the "Kids Hibachi Chicken andSteak" for my three children. The quantity and quality of the plates when they came out was amazing! There were plentifulamounts of food that we had to box it up at the end to take with us. I also ordered the "Crispy Yellow Tail" and "Ninja Roll."The Crispy Yellow Tail dish was excellent! There was plenty of items on the plate that we decided to box up the rest of theYellow Tail for a late night snack with beer. Rolls with cucumber is one of my favorites and the Ninja Roll blew me out of thewater! The roll is pretty big and I had to take three bites to eat one, but for some amazing reason, the roll remained intactmaking my experience with that roll even better because along with the tremendously delicious taste, everything was neat andorganized! The next dish we ordered was the "Sashimi Deluxe." The picture of this dish speaks for itsel Read more

Everything my husband and I got was AMAZING!!! A must come and try and if you want to celebrate an event this is the place to... come… U must also try their other location everyone is a little different with their own touch… Aloha ???????? Read more
