Sakura Japanese Restaurant - Japanese restaurant in Bryant - 7307 Alcoa Rd, USA

It was my first time here. First time eating Japanese food. It was a birthday party of 10 people but for our waitress it was no problem. She took care of all our needs. The food was delicious. Atmosphere relaxing. I sat where I could see the chef chopping and cooking our food. We were amazed how they did all of it so quickly.

Regrettably, the Hot Sake, initially served at room temperature, was later discovered to have been hastily microwaved for 40 seconds—a practice generally discouraged for such a delicate libation. It is imperative to note that microwaving Sake is an unconventional and inappropriate method. The Chirashi bowl, alas, proved less than appealing, characterized by pieces of fish inexpertly cut, diminutive in size, and seemingly haphazardly arranged atop a bed of sushi rice. Despite the menu's assertion of seasoned rice, the actuality fell short of this declaration. In addition, the presentation of the Hibachi dinner left much to be desired, featuring rubbery textures in both the chicken and scallops. Furthermore, the optional fried rice, at an extra cost of $3.45, arrived cold. Although the waiter obligingly replaced the rice, the overall dining experience remained far from gratifying. Noticing our discontented expressions and largely untouched plates, the attentive waiter earnestly inquired about our concerns, encouraging honesty in our feedback. While we conveyed our dissatisfaction with the Sake and Chirashi bowl, we refrained from detailing our disappointment with the Hibachi meal. Subsequently, the waiter promptly conveyed our concerns to the manager, who engaged in a discussion while we settled the bill. As the manager approached the checkout counter, acknowledging our grievances, a gesture of goodwill in the form of a gift card was proffered. However, given the extent of our dissatisfaction, it appears unlikely that we would avail ourselves of such an offering, contemplating a future return to the establishment with a degree of skepticism.

It was pretty disappointing. A lot of people hype this place and swear by their sushi and hibachi. They have a deal for lunch: 2 rolls for 14 and 3 for 21. We decided to get the latter. 2 spicy tuna rolls and 1 eel roll and their crab Rangoon.. The spicy tuna was not spicy at all. Pretty bland to be honest. The crab Rangoon were a joke. So small and burnt and they were eight dollars?? We couldn’t finish them. The eel roll was the highlight of the lunch though. Loved the eel sauce and they had great flavor. Manny was our server and he was great, absolutely no complaints about him. Overall we spent $50 dollars. For the quality of the food, not worth it. It will be awhile before I come back here.

This is my favorite place to eat sushi. We are never disappointed with the choices. Favorites are 911, Bryant, OMG and the Razorback. We also love the fried rice and the Haru Maki eggroll. Their sweet tea is good and good fountain drinks. Hot tea is great for colder weather. When the server knows your order and you need low sodium soy etc. You know you eat here a lot :)

This is my favorite sushi place. Every roll we get is excellent and their fried rice is my favorite. I've eaten at tons of Asian places in the LR metro area and any time I travel outside of this area, and this fried rice is just the best. Also their yum yum sauce is somehow better all other yum yum. Go here. Trust me.

I decided to try this place today after a Dr Appt.. was greeted by manager. Ordered a ToGo order Sashimi Jo , no drink or soup or salad. Just sashimi platter $26.95 in the menu. my card was charged $49.22 I'm not saying that was crooked but receipts don't lie. The 3 Tuna in the platter was very small and cut wrong and frozen solid in the center, the 2 yellowtail were cut correct and were average size. The 3 red snapper were also small and cut wrong as well. The 2 salmon were cut correct and average size, 4 Krabi sticks were not eaten and the 2 octopus were of good size, cut good but someone put a slice of lemon between the 2 pieces throwing off the flavor completely. This wasn't the experience I was expecting, actually really disappointing... overcharged and subpar.

Driving through to get to Mississippi and pulled over to try their sushi. What a great surprise. My expectations were low, but they needent be. I had the spicy tuna lunch roll and a dragon roll. Overall the tuna roll was good with fairly good pieces of tuna. A few pieces were tuna mixed with something crunchy which was also very tasty albeit unexpected. The dragon roll was on par with most better places I've been. Oh, and this place does put the fish roe on their sushi! A very much appreciated addition since the trend these days seems to be towards cheaper no roe type of sushi.

We ordered hibachi chicken and three rolls. It was horrible 🤮 Chicken was no flavor, seasoning but just poured in teriyaki sauce which is I could do better than that. Rolls were less than average. Not any better than you could get Chinese buffet sushi bar. Do not recommend this place. On top of that, the ower(man at cash resister, host)—I assumed. Never never smile😡
