One of the best
By bluenights of Metrotown Burnaby (4 Reviews)
Submitted Thursday, October 20, 2011 - 1:04pm [Dine in]

With so many sushi place in Vancouver, this one still rocks. It's one of the best sushi place I've ever had.
Fishes are good. Service is good. Japanese cook and waitress.
Bite size sushi.
We had squid nigiri and hakki nigiri; california roll, chopped scallop roll and unagi roll, miso soup and salmon sashimi. The salmon sashimi is a dark red which is a good sign. miso soup is cheap only 75c, rolls are all good except the rice is a little stiff. I heard they say they are running out of sushi rice maybe they use the only thing left for us so that's stiff? No idea. I'll see about that next time I visit. and Yes, I'll definitely go there again some time soon

Outstanding Value

Drawn into the depths of Richmond by positive reviews on another site I was Happy I had consulted google maps first-the location is somewhat obscure.

And as mentioned the place is a literal hole-in-the-wall (w/decor to match) that seats a dozen people at most.

But the food is terrific, fresh, delicious just what I long for in a Japanese restaurant-this place is 100% Japanese run and it shows.

Good to see how area residents and people who work in the area support this business-it bodes well for the future.

Fantastic!

Sakura is definately at the top of my list. Not only do we get great, personal service but the quality of food is fantastic. Since I am trying to change my diet to vegies only, their selection is more than enough. I particularly enjoy their Kanpyoh (sp?), oshinko, asapragus roll. I cant forget their wakame salad. Normally, I would never even look at these rolls, but I have grown to LOVE them!

Value: Fab Price for quality of food!

Location is perfect if you take the Canada Line!

EXCELLENT Sushi Amongst Sea Of AYCEs
By dai_lo of Yaletown, Vancouver (26 Reviews)
Submitted Wednesday, February 24, 2010 - 8:20am [Dine in]

Do you want really FRESH, TASTY sushi? Do you want hand-formed nigiri mastered by Japanese sushi-chef Are you sick-n-tired of all the Chapanese AYCE places that serve volume VS quality?

GO no further than this lil' joint. It is on the back side of the strip mall right close to the Canada line terminus station. While certainly not fancy - they serve some of the best sushi in town (IMHO) and the prices are very reasonable.

Give this place a try - you'll be back (many times) Notable faves: Panko Dynamite roll, Yam tempura roll, BC roll, Salmon & Toro nigiri and soft shell crab.

YUM!

Nondescript BUT Excellent
By foodologist of Vancouver (15 Reviews)
Submitted Wednesday, February 24, 2010 - 7:49am [Dine in]

Stumbled upon this place about a year ago whilst shopping @ Staples (old London Drugs at # Rd & Williams). Peered thru the window and noticed no one else but hey - I was hungry and this was convenient.

Ordered some salmon, tuna nigiri, dynamite roll and a miso soup. When food arrived - i could NOT be more delighted. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. I ordered several more nigiri pieces (I was hungry). Brought my wife the following week and she too was amazed. We have been loyal customers since and recommend this to everyone.

I have dined at many fine sushi bars including Tojos and even Sen Sei in Maui (one of top 5 sushi restaurants in the world). While this lil' place canNOT match their exotic selections and plate detailing - I truly am impressed with their freshness and taste.

Fresh sushi in the middle of nowhere
By cheatereater of Richmond (13 Reviews)
Submitted Friday, June 26, 2009 - 3:44pm [Dine in]

This has got to be some of the freshest sushi ive tasted made by japanese people. Though the restaurant itself was a bit tiny and cramped, I was surprised by the cleanliness and the quick service they provided. Everything was simple and authentic. The price was reasonable and generous since they also offer stamps that lead to a free sushi or roll. Thumbs up! and MORE REVIEWS PPL!!!!!

my favourite sushi place
By davidson of richmond, bc (6 Reviews)
Submitted Sunday, September 20, 2009 - 10:50pm [Dine in]

The sushi at Sakura always tastes great and the prices cannot be beat. Their menu prices are lower than most sushi places, but it is actually even lower than you think because GST is already included.

The service is always awesome and the owners are very friendly. I've noticed that the roll portions seem to be a better value than the sashimi portions, so keep that in mind when ordering.

The place closes at 7pm which is a bit early, but perfectly understandable considering the owner/chef is there whenever the shop is open. Also, I'd have to agree about the miso soup being not too flavourful (it's still pleasant though!).

Sushi standouts include: salmon roll (wild!) and unagi avocado roll.

Really, no doubt about it: best tasting sushi in Richmond for the best value.

small Toro
By Century_Dragon of Vancouver (15 Reviews)
Submitted Monday, June 29, 2009 - 9:40pm [Dine in]

Thought we'd try it out because of the good ratings. I know sushi shouldn't be enormous chunks of rice and fish, but we were disappointed at the very small slices of toro sashimi which were 8 pieces for $10.95. I understand why the miso soup was $0.50 per bowl...it was flavourless, had to add soy sauce, which I've never had to do. The sushi was okay but not something we'd want to go back there for.
