Phenomenal food. Hot fresh and great portions. The boba tea was perfect. The chef has been making sushi for 17 years and you can tell it in the quality. The chef even made a special roll for my daughter’s birthday.

Their sushi is so so fresh and delicious! This is a regular spot for us. Spicy Tuna and Lakeville roll top my favorites, but I haven’t met anything I haven’t liked yet!

i enjoyed eating out at this place, the atmosphere is cozy, and the food is very yummy. what i especially liked is the bubble tea drink they have! they come in a pretty big size for a reasonable price. would definitely come back!

Fantastic and friendly service, food is excellent snd they now have boba tea as well. Can’t recommend them enough! (Do be cautious eating in though, seating is fairly limited)

Delicious sushi. I got the fry ninja. Yummm. Wonderful service. Perfect little whole in the wall. Definitely coming back! 1 month later: came back for round two and it was just as perfect as the first!! My wife and I would give this place an extra star if we could. We come all the way from Rochester to eat here. That’s saying something. Spectacular service every time. Love this place!

Imagine my surprise when I saw Mizumi’s Asian Bistro close down a few months ago. It was quite the little gem—I was sad to see it go. So you can imagine my even bigger surprise when I had saw another bistro open in its stead—Sakura’s Sushi & Hibachi. Needless to say, I had to try it out. Also they have a -15% off all menu items promo going on right now—figured I should mention that first before anything else. Upon walking in, I can say the atmosphere hasn’t changed much from Mizumi. They kept most of the same seating and everything. Makes sense as it’s simply another bistro so everything can be used. It’s a nice little quaint atmosphere that I quite enjoy. I was greeted instantly by a very pleasant lady who then helped me figure out the situation. It would seem that at the moment they’re more geared towards takeout rather than dine-in for they don’t have any actual plates or cutteries for dining in. Honestly the smart choice to go with for it’s location in town, being hidden away and takeout most likely being it’s primary business. The biggest distinction right off the bat is that Sakura serves bubble tea whereas Mizumi had served liquor. Where some may prefer liquor, I am personally in the group of bubble tea for life. It was a pleasant thing to see. I ended up ordering the classic milk tea and a serving of fried rice—out of respect to the late Mizumi but as well as to see if Sakura can live up to my high praises for Mizumi’s fried rice that had blown me away for its rich taste in such a simplistic dish. My wait time was quite short, having my food brought to me within 5 minutes. Granted I was the only customer in at the time, but hey that’s pretty good. Now to the food itself. It was wonderful! The bubble tea was lovely. It’s always great to see more bubble tea areas in the southern metro area, if you can even call Lakeville and Apple Valley that. It’s been so lacking and now seeing all these places rise up like Nihao Tea and Fuchi Poke is such a treat. My taste buds for bubble tea is not good enough to distinguish whether it was better than the other places or not, but I will say that it was definitely good tea. No complaints. As for the rice, it was pleasant. It wasn’t quite the same level of balance that Mizumi had commanded, but I was more than satisfied. Hibachi rice really hits different. Each grain is beautifully textured and you can feel it. If you wish for more flavor, they have yum yum sauce as well as basic soy sauce which is more than enough. The steak was perfectly cooked a wonderful medium, not too chewy or raw—pleasant for all. Overrall I would definitely come back—especially with the promo they got going on right now. But even without it, I would. It’s a nice little gem to replace Mizumi, and frankly I’d say they 1-upped Mizumi with their bubble tea. Next time I’ll try out some sushi and see how that goes. Wonderful to see an Asian bistro return to Lakeville and I wish the best to the place. They have my support for sure.

This is a gem that offers an extraordinary sushi and sashimi experience. The service is top-quality and some fresh fish makes it a must-visit spot.

Amazing customer service. Food is so delicious here and drinks as well. I bought different kinds of suchi and classic milk tea with boba. If you are starving some good quality sushi and rolls, you better check out this place. Also they offer right now 15% off your purchase. Good and yum deal. 😊Thank you.

Food was not good. Not worth the money. Chicken was tough tasted like canned. Beef was tough. We ate there and we were served with plastic to go containers & utensils. For the same money you can go to other better hibachi grills. The people were very nice and the service was very good. Maybe we just hit an off night?

I sincerely hope this restaurant does well! The food is the best I’ve had in Minnesota. They are a family operated business and from the excellent quality of their food, you can tell they really put in their best efforts. The ingredients are always fresh and each sushi roll was made to perfection. The place is clean and updated with a small number of tables. Everyone who works there warmly greets their customers. They also make amazing bubble tea! We randomly try different sushi rolls each time and it was alway impressive. I hope everyone gives this restaurant a chance, I’m sure you will become a regulars as my family are.

Love this place. Finding decent sushi near us is tough. I love stopping in here for lunch or taking it to go. Hibachi vegetable and fried rice with yum-yum sauce and the lakeville roll. Cannot go wrong. Super kind staff. Always going above and beyond for loyal customers. Not a ton of seating BEWARE if trying to sit in that there may be a risk of needing to get it to go. Only saw this problem once but I’ve never had a problem. This will be my go to spot from now on when I the craving for sushi hits.
