I had never visited this joint until today. I read the reviews and thought it may be worth a try. Well, unfortunately it wasnt. I went in to place a take out order. It was around 2ish, but the place was pretty empty. I figured I had just missed the lunch crowd and decided to press forward. I ordered their lunch chicken pad thai, because according to someone, it was the best pad thai in the Boro. Wrong, wrong, wrong!! So first thing when I looked at the dish, it did not have the requisite peanuts. So I asked the lady if they did not put peanuts on their pad thai (it indicates such on the menu). She told me some people dont like them. Ok, so I just told her to bring me some. Next, I get home with the dish and as Im looking through I notice there are no eggs in the dish. Ok, so now Im thinking how do you make any Thai dish and just start arbitrarily leaving out major ingredients? And what did you base these actions on? Another thing I noticed . . . clumped noodles. What in the world? It was a hot mess. Noodles all stuck and clumped together; not at all what this dish is supposed to be. But of course, it must taste decent, right? Absolutely not!! Some of the most bland, non tasting pad thai ever. No flavor whatsoever. The chicken that was in the dish was dry, dry, dry. Very sad excuse for a thai dish. Ive had decent pad thai and Ive had bad pad thai; this was worse than the baddest pad thai Ive had. I certainly hope they do a better job with their hibachi, but I doubt Ill ever find out.

I purchased teriyaki chicken today during lunch time. I asked for 2 white sauce and one hot sauce. I only received 2 white sauce no hot sauce. When I got home I added the white sauce and heated the meal up. When I went to eat the meal the white sauce was stringy like cheese! I never had any white sauce like that before. Never the less I decided to try the meal. I couldnt even force myself to eat it! The food was bland almost with no taste, and when you add the texture to that I just couldnt do it. I looked up the number and tried to call, but I guess they were closed. I live a hour thirty minutes away, and I was so upset I would have driven back to get my money! I would submit a picture if I could. Today is Oct. 13, 2010.

Sushi rolls are quite small but tasted well I guess. The first time I went the waitress was very nice and attentive. My boyfriend, however, did even up finding a hair in his sushi rolls halfway through our meal which was quite unappetizing as you can imagine. The second time our waitress (a different one this time) asked my boyfriend for his ID to verify his age after he ordered a beer but took an entire 5 minutes to do the math to see if he was old enough. She also had a hard time understanding our orders which was pretty frustrating. THEN one of the employees while cleaning the fish tank THREW UP right in front of us and had the audacity to turn to us, chuckle it off, and say "its okay"... Never again.

$10 for crap "drive-thru quality" chinese food and sweet tea that tasted like syrup. The waitress didnt speak English and came to my table twice. Once to bring my food which she placed on the oposite side of the table from where I was sitting and then again to bring the check which she also placed further away than I could reach. The hostess took my order after she couldnt find the waitress. I didnt even bother trying to explain my issue with the tea to her. I have no problem giving a second chance to a place that at least has good service but when the food and the service a poor theres not a chance Ill ever go back.

I attended this restaurant on May 4th, 2010 and the manager was my waiter. He was very rude, telling me that I had ordered ranch dressing when I ordered ginger. I complained and told him that I thought his behavior was rude and he told me that "he has a lot of other people that think not." I replied we would not be guests at his establishment any longer and he said that it was "fine with him." On top of rude service, the food was bland and unimpressive. The ladies at the restaurant were, however, very pleasant and helpful.

I have been to this restaurant since it opened. Many times. For my dollar it has the best food in town. Everything is so fresh and made to order. I never had anything that was "bland" at this restaurant, encountered anybody rude, or had a negative experience of any kind. Sakura appreciates and values its customers, contrary to what you read here. Go see for yourselves and tell your friends about this best kept secret on High Point Road!

Casual to high atmospohere now with free wifi and tv to look at. I like the volcano rolls (sushi), I eat most of my pad thais here. They have curry and habachi also. Not crazy spicy but for some of the dishes, i do like the taste. If it is your first time trying thai food or not sure if you want thai or japanese (or if you dont know the difference between the two haha), then I recommend it highly.

This place is great! The food, the service, the prices, and the atmosphere all add up to a very pleasant experience. I just wish they had brown rice. Their ginger dressing and ginger sauce add pizzazz to the meal! One perk is that they are willing to keep the TV turned off at our request. Im amazed that this place isnt packed when we come here.

Food was good but dont use their website for pricing. I was told by the host/cashier that the site hasnt been updated in 3 years. They also dont honor the prices or specials online! I ended up paying dinner prices for lunch. :(
