Sakura Japan 5

Love it! Its better food than competitors like Massaki and at a MUCH cheaper price. Even the Yum Yum sauce is better here. One thing to note though is that the food is served in a to-​go container even if you dine in and they DO NOT cook the food in front of you like at other Japanese steakhouses. This doesn’t bother me at all, as I don’t usually want that experience and reserve it only for special occasions with large groups. Décor is basically fast food-​ish, but the staff is still kind and brings our food out to us so we don’t wait at the counter. Prices are great and very low, so I can treat myself to filet minion and seafood for about half of what others charge. Salad and soup is extra but still cheap and I usually don’t eat the soup at the other places anyways, so I appreciate the savings more than the extra dish. The only suggestion I would make is that they could give a bit more meat with the servings, but it likely just seems like less since you get sooooo much more rice here.

I can’t put how much I love Sakura into one review! I live 35 miles away & will regularly drive just to Sakura’s hibachi chicken & shrimp! The drive thru is a bit of a wait, but with food like this it’s excusable. Definately a must try!

I was in Staunton for a day and was looking for somewhere to eat. This place didn’t look really good from the outside décor. I went drive through and the food came out in 5mins. It was so fresh and good and I saved half of it for dinner. The sauce was amazing!!! Anyways didn’t expect it to be good at all in the first place but it was the best quick meal I ve had!

Portions are large. You might consider sharing a dinner. Prices are good for this area. Don’t try to change the vegetables for your order. The cooks do not like it. We would come back.

One of the best Japanese restaurants I’ve been to. Food was great and the quantity was huge, plenty to split with 2 people. Will be coming back the next time we are in the Staunton/​Waynesboro area!

We spend a lot of time traveling, and so far this has been one of the best Japanese restaurants I have tried.
The teriyaki chicken plate was incredible. There is enough food in one plate to eat off of for multiple meals, or just to share with your family. Quick and easy to order, and food came out quickly! Each plate on the menu comes with a vegetable medley of zucchini, mushrooms, and onions. They also include egg and an extremely generous helping of rice. You can’t go wrong here!

For Staunton, this restaraunt is outstanding. The food is fresh, quick, delicious and consistent. They offer a drive up window (it’s in an old KFC building), pick up service and some seating. Each entre is very reasonably priced – most everything about $ 7 – and that’s enough for at least two people. since this place opened my family doesn’t want to go anywhere else. We’re extra fond of both hibachi and teriyaki chicken or steak which are full of zucchini, mushrooms, and onions. Easy access from both I-​81 & I-​64. Enjoy!
