I ordered takeout from Sakura Express and was really impressed! The food was well priced, great quality, and came in generous portions. It was still steaming hot when I got it home, and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Definitely one of the better takeout experiences I’ve had. I will be ordering again!

I placed a group order and the order was 100% accurate. The service and food was amazing!! We will definitely be back!

Came for dinner tonight at Sakura Express. We tried their Steak and teriyaki chicken skillet with fried egg and it came out on a hot skillet sizzling! Also tried a couple of their boba drinks. Everything was delicious would highly recommend. Place is clean, staff is friendly and if you go and try it's 20% off for their grand opening!!

Sakura is awesome. First the Food. Everything is freshly made, hot, and very good. I've had the chicken, steak, and salmon teriyaki, all of which are fantastic. The plates are massive, and I often have lots of leftovers. The smaller bowls are also a full meal, and often what I order. The drinks are made fresh as well, and I am fond of the Thai Tea and Sakura Coffee. The Boba is fresh made and hot, which makes for a really fun and unique experience, with the ice cold beverage and warm Boba. Its a treat! Their sushi is also fairly good. The staff is great. The owners are extremely nice, and very helpful. The restaurant is small, but well taken care of. Its clean, bright, and not too loud. Give Sakura a try. You will love it!

I really enjoyed the food here! Everything was fresh made to order. The chicken we got last time was juicy, and the steak was delicious! The owners are really nice as well. We got to talk to them and they told us how quality is their priority. So that's why everything is fresh, even the boba balls that they use are all made the same day. I highly recommend the winter melon fruit tea! Since we had a good experience the first time, we decided to come back. This time though, we wanted to see if ordering trays of food was possible so we can share with our friends. I'm so glad that they do! We got a tray of noodles, shrimp, teriyaki chicken, veggies and steak. The noodles were actually really good and flavorful, unlike other places where they are plain. I could eat a whole plate of noodles just by itself it was that good! If you're ever in the area, please give it a try! You won't be disappointed!

Sakura Express is my new go-to spot for boba especially after work! The food is super fresh, and their teas and bobas are creative and delicious. I've tried a few of different things on the menu, and I've not been disappointed. The staff is also really friendly and the service is quick. Definitely my new favorite spot!

This food is amazing!!!. Stopped by for some food and was not expecting it to be this good. The food came out fast and fresh. This place is a must try and it's going to be a regular for me. I had the beef and chicken and my wife had the salmon and chicken. Both were cooked perfectly and the teriyaki sauce was so flavorful. Love how they have it at the table so I can have as much sauce as I want. Sauce was not to sweet and overpowering, just perfect in my opinion. We also had a Boba tea drink to wash this all down. I can't recommend this place enough and I'll tell everyone I know how good this place is.

Wow! I love salmon but don’t always get it because it’s more expensive, but man was I glad I did today! Not sure if I was just lucky, but every once in a while I’ve had salmon that’s cooked perfect, where it’s crispy on the ends but still falls apart and not overcooked. That’s what I had today! Also got a passion fruit smoothie which was amazing. Excited to go back and try more things on the menu. I like their sauce they have too and put some extra in one of those small condiment cups/container. High quality Hibachi food without the wait of a sit down restaurant! I assume the employees there were the owners, and they were Extremely kind and friendly!
