Reviews for Sakura Japanese Restaurant in Virginia Beach, VA

Terrible service. It is generally advisable to take care of your patrons dining in before take out orders. We sat and watched as... the sushi chefs packed 20 to 30 take out orders while we waited an hour for our food. Very frustrating dining experience. Read more

If you are black I suggest you don't come here. The restaurant was slightly busy last week and I was picking up food from here... for the first time. I was stand for at least over 10-15 mins and not once my presence was ever acknowledged. But why the momentsomeone came in after me, the staff spoke to her and asked her if she is here to eat in or picking up an order. The staffclearly saw and ignored me and attended to multiple people who came in after me. It was the most awkward experience. They reallyshould be ashamed to be visibly treating others differently based on their skin color. I will not ever be coming here everagain. Read more

Let me start off by saying that I am not type of person that thinks everything is about race, but I am convinced that this place... is racist. My family and I wanted to do a take order and I called shortly before 8:15pm to inquire what time does the restauranttake their last take out order. The woman on the phone said 9:00pm. I spoke to another person from the restaurant and sheconfirmed that 9:00pm was the last time they take carry out orders. My family and I arrived to the restaurant around 8:40pm. Wego inside to place our order and we were immediately declined service. The women that was sitting at the sushi bar said ?we areclosed?. I said I just called and spoke with you and you told me you take your last carry out order at 9:00pm. She looked at meand said ?we?re closed?. At this point I knew what was going on. It was five of us in our group and we are all BLACK. We saidnever mind and left. It amazes me that someone from Asian descent can be so racist, especially when some of them come to Americato escape poverty. If you are black please stay away!!!! Read more

Very slow service. If you are busy and backed up then stop taking online/mobile orders to take care of your dine-in patrons!... Everyone in the restaurant was looking around trying to find a server or asking about where their food is..ours came an hourafter waiting. Long line of mobile order pickups in the restaurant. Unacceptable. Read more

My family and I were in the area and decided to eat some Japanese food for lunch. They have pretty decent priced lunch. The... portions were small for the lunch special. If you?re hungry I would suggest get the bigger portion. The server was nice andsuper quick with servicing our drinks and meal. I would most definitely come back for dinner time. Read more

Got sushi take out from here. Got the sushi deluxe, spicy tuna roll, and agadashi tofu/age tofu. For a sushi fix, the ?sushi... regular? or ?sushi delux? is an excellent value to cure your craving. Good variety, and good slices of fish on the sushi pieces,not real thin or skimpy like from a buffet, but nice pieces like you?d expect from upscale sushi dining. Everything tasted freshand good. Really good assortment with the sushi deluxe, pretty much had all the items I wanted. And the spicy tuna roll wasabove average, great flavor, good ingredients. I honestly think the regular and deluxe combos are the best value for sushilovers here, you could make an impressive party spread from 4 orders of the sushi deluxe(40pc + 4 rolls + 4 soups, for under100) rather than doing a boat or the 49.95 combos. For a solo feast the sushi regular is probably enough, and a spicy roll byitself great lunch over McDonald?s. If picking up for coworkers could split a sushi deluxe between 3 people for $8 a person andwould be a good meal at fast food price. I probably ordered more than I needed, everything you see here plus a $7 tip and taxwas $50 flat, which is really good with the tuna and snapper and salmon included in the combo. If you order take out, they?llhave it ready immediately, almost as fast as a fast food order, so be ready to pick it up right when you order. Fast service,great quality, great variety, great value. Two thumbs up. Read more

Good sushi at a pretty good price. Complimentary sushi, hand towels, and oranges are a nice little addition. Hibachi offered as... well Read more
