I had the teriyaki chicken fried rice and scallops with soup and salad. I enjoyed my salad and soup. I enjoyed the fried rice as well but thought that my plate should have been cleaner. My server was great she was very attentive and very nice. Ambiance good.

This place is on par with the best sushi and sashimi I have ever had anywhere. I dine in here on a regular basis. Consistently AMAZING.

We've been here several times since our first visit and it's hands down the best sushi place in L'ville. We've eaten at many of the local and high-end sushi/hibachi restaurants and this place has never failed us on food and pricing. I will say they need to hire extra help on busy nights, but the food is always great and the two main servers that are there work extra hard to meet everyone's needs.

Dinner date with my college son, these times can't be beat. He wanted hibachi but Shogun has gotten so run down that we decided on Sakura Blue. I'd eaten here years ago and liked it but forget about it being tucked away in Shelbyville Plaza. We were greeted and quickly seated near a large party. A bit loud as we tried to converse but manageable. My son ordered a crispy shrimp, cream cheese, avocado sushi roll to try and teriyaki steak with vegetables and rice with ginger salad and the broth like soup. I ordered chicken teriyaki with vegetables, rice, and the salad and broth. Our food came in a timely manner and was fresh and delicious! Vibrant colorful veggies, a delicious teriyaki sauce not crazy salty, and tender pieces of chicken. Delicious! Pricing is even better than some other local spots and the food and service very good. No "show" or hibachi table to sit around but the food quality seemed way better and we enjoyed the time catching up without the hoopla of a hibachi performance. Great lunch specials and pricing if able to go there Monday-Friday in the right timeframe!

My husband and I wanted to try a new sushi place and decided to try Sakura. It was a small place, but was very busy in a Friday night. Service was a little slow, but we weren't in a hurry and they were busy. We were so impressed with the food we had. We started with Shumai for an appetizer. It was really good, but wish there were a little more that came with them. I had Bibimbap for my meal and it was so filling and delicious. It came with soup and salad as well. I had plenty to take home for leftovers, which were just as good the next day! My husband got a few sushi rolls, which he said were some of the best he's ever had. We will definitely be back!

We come here occasionally, the food is always good. I like how they season the sushi rice. Takeout can be slow, especially during busier times. Our server today was prompt and very friendly, and we were served our food quickly. It's a fairly quiet dining room, lots of tables and booths. Good casual date spot.

Went here today at about 3pm - perfect time walked right in and was seated. Started with California roll which was more than enough for the two of us - fresh ginger and wasabi. Delicious. Went with steak hibachi meal. Hot soup was amazing with fresh mushrooms and spice. Classic salad with super crisp fresh vegetables. Amazing steak cooked perfectly and tender with crisp fresh vegetables and tasty sauce. Paired with the fried rice was the perfect texture. Enough for late lunch and kept me full through dinner time. Will be back sooner than later.
