Sakura Japanese Express

Very poor quality food. The «green salad» was literally a Styrofoam box of lettuce. Nothing else, no dressing. Teriyaki chicken is just chicken with a lot of soy sauce.

This place was disgusting. Nothing authentic about this place yes portions are huge and cheap and it taste just like that cheap fastfood. Not a fan go Ming in Johnson city but this place is disgusting.

This is an amazing restaurant and the food is at an amazing price! If you want really good, fresh, healthy and steaming hot food served in huge proportions at a low price than this is the Japanese restaurant for you! They even have a drive through, which I did not use but is an option for others!

Yay! I’m a fan because this was fast, healthy, hot and cooked well — and with a good portion at a good price.
My daughter and I got some steak/​broccoli combination and the steak was better than the nearby Applebees and we went through the drive-​thru at two-​minutes before closing! How often do you get good hot food right at closing time?! Broccoli & rice were fresh, carrots were well cooked, not too mushy, not too hard. Fried cheese wontons were hot and tasty. (If you’re a fan of friend dough and cheese & chives you’ll probably like those.) My daughter and I were expecting a «bleh» experience because it was late at night and it was a drive-​thru. Very pleasantly surprised and we will definitely be regulars after our books-​a-​million trips.
They have a casual sit down area inside, and a drive-​thru with a limited menu outside. They have a variety of seafood sushi & vegetable sushi. (My vegetarian daughter in NY will be thrilled when she comes back.) This is a nice alternative to area drive-​thru restaurants if you have a vegetarian in the car.
This is American friendly Japanese food. I’m not reviewing on authenticity because I don’t know enough about Japanese food to do so. I’ll just say it was fresh, tasty, and definitely reasonably price. It was nice to get a meal of meat rice vegetables and egg roll for the same price as a value meal at your standard fast-​food joints — and a bigger portion to boot. I wish I could remember the combo I ordered. Okay, I looked it up: We got the Hibachi Steak Combo. I definitely recommend it. Oh, and although their menu says that it’s cooked with mushroom sauce & soysauce — I don’t like mushrooms but I loved it. So don’t dismiss this entrée if you don’t like mushrooms!
I’m a fan. Thrilled to see a Japanese drive-​thru! (Pal’s, Purple Cow, Sonic, Fazoli’s, now Sakura! East Tennessee drive thrus are the best!)
