Honestly our absolute favourite takeaway! It needs 10 stars. The Chicken Karrage buns are too good. The staff are so lovely and friendly. We are so sad to move away from the area for a while, and will definitely be stopping by whenever we pass south Woodford. Thanks for all the amazing food! James & Darcey

This used to be our favourite place to eat. The best buns ever, wonderful ingredients, so well prepared and beautiful every time…. However we ordered through Uber eats recently and it was almost inedible, so much sauce in the buns it was a disaster. We couldn't taste any of the fillings (soft shell crab / chicken) they were swamped in sauce and quite badly seasoned. Something must have changed, the lady who used to run Sakura was impeccable and the food was always perfect. Our last experience was so far from this it feels like there’s no way it’s the same team. Such a shame as it was in our top places to eat.

Best Sushi/Japanese in the area by a million miles and I've tried the main 3 on a number of occasions. This place tastes the best but is also somehow the cheapest. Go figure. On certain days you have to wait an hour to get your food, so I recommend ordering ahead of time on the phone or online. There are queues outside on busy days for a reason. Highly recommended.

I use to love this place. There miso was out of the world and food taste was on point. I finally see them on uber , ordered and everything is over salted. Just pure salt and not taste. What happened ? Did the owner change? I remember the owner was a lady that strict rules and never allowed for quality to slip

Amazing customer service, everyone is so lovely and accommodating and smiley - especially since we came in close to closing time! Lovely broad vegetarian/vegan options and very clean! The whole place looks modern - there’s a reason why this place is so busy! Can’t wait to come back!

Amazing Japanese Dishes, so many choices for both veg and non veg. I've only had the veg dishes and I can say that each one was so tasty and would highly recommend their Bai buns, gayozas, sushi...list is endless. Definitely worth a try if you haven't and looking for quality food. You get free snacks while you wait for your collection. Great customer service...amazing chefs.

Really good quality food at great prices. The food is really fresh and the staff are incredible, professional and friendly. I have been going to Sakura for years and have never been disappointed. It is a gem!

Loved it here Highly recommend the miso soup, and the prawn bao buns wow oh wow Staff were so welcoming & attentive Will definitely be back

This is the best sushi I have ever had. The bag buns are fantastic. Great vegetarian options. Friendly team.

The place is very well managed, Clean and the food is AMAZING!! Everyone is very helpful and accomodating. They anticipate their customers needs. Best buns I've had so far.

very friendly and hospital staff, generous portions too. However, I ordered the yakisoba and yakimeshi and both lacked flavour and authenticity.
