I
recently
indulged
in
takeout
from
Sakura
Sushi
in
Manalapan,
and
I
must
say,
my
taste
buds
were
in
for
a
treat.
While
the
menu
boasted
an
extensive
selection
of
classic
Japanese
dishes,
I
couldn't
resist
indulging
in
a
few
staples.
Here's
the
lowdown
on
what
I
ordered:
The
chicken
teriyaki
was
undoubtedly
the
highlight
of
the
meal,
with
a
perfect
blend
of
savory
and
sweet
flavors
that
left
me
wanting
more.
I'd
give
it
a
solid
4
out
of
5
stars.
The
katsudon,
while
tasty,
wasn't
quite
as
impressive
as
the
teriyaki.
The
pork
cutlet
was
cooked
to
perfection,
but
the
dish
lacked
a
certain
depth
of
flavor
that
would
have
elevated
it
to
the
next
level.
I'd
give
it
a
3.5
out
of
5
stars.
Moving
on
to
the
sushi,
the
Philly
roll
was
decent,
but
nothing
to
write
home
about.
The
same
can
be
said
for
the
spicy
tuna
and
salmon
rolls,
which
were
fresh
but
not
exceptional.
Each
of
these
rolls
garnered
a
3.5
out
of
5
stars
from
me.
Unfortunately,
the
kani
salad
was
a
bit
of
a
letdown.
While
the
dish
had
potential,
the
lack
of
masago
and
flavor
left
me
feeling
underwhelmed.
I'd
give
it
a
3
out
of
5
stars.
The
miso
soup
and
house
salad
were
both
decent,
but
again,
nothing
to
write
home
about.
Each
dish
received
a
3.5
out
of
5
stars.
While
the
food
was
certainly
enjoyable,
I
couldn't
help
but
notice
that
it
didn't
seem
as
fresh
as
it
could
have
been.
Compared
to
other
sushi
places
I've
dined
at,
Sakura
Sushi
fell
a
bit
short
in
this
department.
All
things
considered,
I'd
give
Sakura
Sushi
a
respectable
3.5
out
of
5
stars.
While
there
were
certainly
highlights,
the
food
as
a
whole
didn't
quite
reach
the
level
of
excellence
I
was
hoping
for.
