Reviews for Sakura | Japanese Steak House & Sushi Bar in Richmond, VA

The salmon, eel, and yellowtail sushi was outstanding. Refreshing flavor with no tang or odd after tastes. The Tako Yaki was... warm and gooey, perfect for a cozy fall evening. Definitely one of my top favorite places to go now! Read more

Food was decent. Had habachi here. Service was just okay. Place seemed a little dingy but will definitely try it again. BTW,... should there be a bookcase in front of the fire exit??? Just wondering. Read more

The Chef’s are awesome, great personality and technical skill. Fried Rice, hibachi steak, veggies and chicken were great!... Unfortunately the salad was swimming in Ginger Dressing and it didn’t taste fresh. The Soup was good but it was diluted andseemed like salt was just added to compensate. The noodles at the end didn’t taste very good, they were like spaghetti noodleswhich didn’t fit the Japanese theme. The best thing by far was the fried rice! The venue was also filled with smoke, this leadto floors being sticky. One of the vents might not be working very well or the a/c is struggling. Otherwise the venue anddecoration itself was very nice, and way more than I expected. The amount of options for sides is quite limited. Read more

I was super excited when our order came! It was so hot like it was fresh from the kitchen! Everything tasted amazing until I... went for some more of my Ramen and got a chunk of metal scrub brush. It completely put me off and will not be finishing my meal. Read more

ABSOLUTELY GROSS used to be the best hibachi restaurant in Richmond but went there 06/28/2022. Absolutely disgusting. The food... was over seasoned, they’ve cut back more than half the serving size but doubled the price. Wish I could go back in time andtake my business to Sakura which is 5 minutes up the road from this place. Read more

My Fiancé and I ordered takeout and I got the steak and shrimp hibachi. It was watered down, no flavor, steak was dry, and the... shrimp was rubbery. Miso soup tasted horrible and the fried rice was mediocre. We also got the spicy crunch shrimp roll whichwas pretty decent. We went here because of the good reviews but we’re disappointed that it turned out like this. Read more

Customer service is absolutely terrible. My waitress was so pleasant and helpful with the sushi menu. I asked for well done... steak, specified no pink inside and this is what was brought to my table. I respectfully asked the waitress to replace my orderand this time bring well done steak. The manager only wanted to make the steak over while the rest of my food sits and get coldwhile waiting for the steak to cook. I am not giving this establishment my money ever again. That’s unacceptable. Read more

I went here for dinner for my birthday the waiter was very rude and we were rushed to place an order. The chef was really nice... we did hibachi with several other couples. The food was very salty I was not impressed. I will not be going back. It lookedreally good but it wasn't to my liking. Read more
