Sakura Japanese Restaurant

I go here from time to time just to break up my old routine of hitting my standard sushi haunts. Actually, I should go more often because it is damn good. \r \r The staff and owners are really really friendly. They always ask how my dad is, where have you been, we just saw your buddy Big Richie....etc You get the picture. very friendly. \r \r The restaurant is very clean. On top of that, it's lit really well and has a nice open feeling to it. A cool thing about Sakura is that they have tables that can be closed of by a sidling door. Almost like a closet. Perfect for a romantic dinner or if you want to practice coming in and out of the closet...LOL.... \r \r I usually sit at the sushi bar and again this bar is clean. I ordered some sweet shrimps and the sushi deluxe dinner which comes with miso soup and a ginger dressing salad. You also receive a small comp bowl of fruit and cucumbers marinaded in a sweet and sour liquid to cleanse your palette. The soup is good....I mean it's miso soup hard to screw it up..lol. I like the ginger dressing and it's always nice and cold. My sushi was excellent, see pic. The chef was ever so kind to send me a few pieces of Toro Sushi which was off the charts good. The sweet shrimps were very tasty. I would have to say that sweet shrimp is my favorite sushi now followed by Uni. The presentation of all the food was fantastic. \r \r My ranking of sushi places out west have changed, NU Sushi is still #1 and Sakura is now #2 with Tee-Jays a distant 3rd, sorry Got. Remember to tell them Dan sent you and Stay Hungry! more

This is and has been my favorite sushi resteraunt in Broward County for the past 6 years. It was where I first tried sushi. They have the freshest tastiest sushi rolls and ala cart sashimi. Try the blue river roll, orthe rainbow roll for a variety of flavors. The spring rolls are absolutely to die for. They have both tables and private boothes with sliding wood doors for an intimate couples dinner or just to eat with some privacy. The chefs are very experienced and not one time have I had to wait a long time to be served. The prices are affordable as far as sushi goes. Located right in the heart of coral springs on university road. This is a cozy place hidden away like a diamond in the rough. Its like the best kept secret for sushi afficionados. Never had sushi and anxious to try? The waiters here will help you find what to order. Looking for a quiet fulfilling dining experience? This is the place to go! more
