Best sushi I've ever had! The spicy tuna is so flavorfull. Tried out the iron-man roll and it was incredible. I wish I could have eaten more
Fabulous quality sushi with high quality ingredients. I love buying wegmans sushi for its convenience but when I come here it is a bit of a reality check. Fantastic. One of my favorite places to eat.
Best Sushi in Buffalo. I swear there's always someone complaining. Don't pay any attention to the comment about the quality going down at Sakura. I have been ordering from them since they opened and their food has been consistently fantastic. Anything made with their spicy sauce is just that, spicy and not for the faint of heart. I've tried all the other places in Buffalo; Fuji, Kumo, Shogun and nothing compares to Sakura.
The sushi was awesome. Very reasonable for the quality. Service was great... Our server was able to make pleasing recommendations... We will definktely come back soon.
Best sushi in buffalo. Hands down the best sushi in buffalo. Any of the spicy rolls with knock your socks off. Service is always very pleasant.
Would go back again. Everything was tasty an well put together. Only tried it because of a groupon deal but at $ 50 for two it wasn't terribly priced
Even w/out the groupon.

Best restaurant in Buffalo. Friends and I are addicted and have gone weekly for over a year now. Lunch special with the Joey (deep fried spicy tuna with lobster and avocado) appetizer and one of they're KILLER fusion rolls is a great deal. Nothing compares.
An Extraordinary Dining Experience. Seeing 8 five-star reviews, over on Google, I thought at least half of them had to be shills. They aren't. This is an extraordinary dining experience. From the ambiance, to service, to ...the food, this was just simply outstanding. The outside is unexceptional, but inside is delicately reminiscent of Japanese balance and understatement. We had the Ginger Mountain, the Special Spicy roll, and a Ginger ?dragon? roll. Each was delectable, and distinctly different from the others. We had a pistachio Gelato swirl, which was also perfect, and one of the best of this genre. About $9-15 for a specialty roll, about average. We paid $55 for two, plus a $15 tip. Overall, a spectacular dining experience, at a very reasonable price.
Great sushi. Small intimate place... the service is sub par. Always get a bottle of sake and the sushi boat ;)

My family was one of the first customers at Sakura years ago. Having spent a few years in NYC and being exposed to some of the finest sushi restuaruants in the world I was deathly afraid to try any sushi in Buffalo. I wasn't even sure the restuaraunts here even knew what sushi grade fish even was. We noticed the sign before they opened for business and went for lunch opening day. While I'm sure they were poised to make a good impression at the start, since that time many repeat visits... and other local sushi restuaraunts later... I've still confirmed that Sakura maintains a friendly, well priced, upbeat, pleasant and relaxing atmosphere with the absolute best sushi available anywhere in western new york. In food quality Sakuri rivals many of the finer straight sushi (non japanese fusion) establishments in NYC. The staff provides excellent service. The hostess is worderful with kids, my son loves sakura.. and he was made to feel very special by the hostess and staff at his birthday dinner here. Food suggestions would include the marvelous Mango Roll, The Sakura Roll, and of course their addictive California Rolls. I don't care how close or far away you are... if you want awesome sushi Sakura cannot be outdone. Hands down, bar none, the best sushi place in western new york.
Worth a visit. Fish is fresh, food is good... but need to work on speed and presentation. They are not even that busy... 4 tables at most. The sushi chef definitely took his time talking to the other customer at the sushi bar... my sushi is not evenly cut and it looks completely different than the one they keep showing on screen... (yes, they were on the buffalo news)
AMAZING!!. WOW - Seabar is fantastic, Fugi grill also good But WOW!! Sakura is just AMAZING THE BEST tempura calamari EVER!!!! EVERYTHING was EXCEPTIONAL!!
Wonderfully fresh sushi. Great staff. MUch better than seabar
Everything at Sakura Sushi was incredible. The spicy kani tempura, the goyza (not vegetarian or pescetarian), the Cheektowaga Roll, Philadelphia Roll, Yellow Tuna Roll, Coppa Mascarpone, and Dream Bomba was all absolutely amazing and out of this world. This Local Restaurant Week experience is exactly what I love about this event: I found an incredible place, tried some amazing food I wouldn’t normally order, and enjoyed every little thing about it! The ambiance is perfect, the service was amazing, the food was fantastic, and I found 8 vegetarian rolls to come back and try.
Sakura grabbed my interest this year at the Taste of Buffalo . Every year this happens; a restaurant will come out of the blue and win us over with a delicious menu item and we move it to the top of our wish list. Last year Garris BBQ and their fantastic
After spending years as an offshoot of Niagara Falls Boulevard's original Thai restaurant Jasmine, and then as a Asian fusion restaurant with heavy Thai influences, a Cheektowaga venue across from the Walden Galleria Mall has transformed into a Japanese s
As a sushi connoisseur, I can strongly say that Sakura has the best sushi in all of Buffalo. Their sushi and sashimi always taste fresh and melt right in your mouth. They differentiate themselves from all other sushi restaurant with their variety of tasty, creative options. The Joey is my favorite appetizer (you must try it) and their Cheektowaga roll will make you want to come back for more. The staff is extremely nice and welcoming, the overall ambience of this place is awesome. I wish I could give it more than 5 stars. I cannot rave about this place enough; I find myself ALWAYS craving Sakura. Highly recommend you eat here anytime you want sushi!
It's a little bit more expensive than other places I have been but the quality is better and the food is excellent. Worth the money in the end.
Back again a month later and the food is still great. Dumpling ramen and sashimi deluxe tonight. A++++
If your looking for authentic Japanese food this is the spot!!!! Highly recommend....great atmosphere, good vibes....and did I mention the best Japanese food. Stop by and check it out....
Haven't been here in a while, because it's so far from me, otherwise I would be here more ofteb. But I love this place, I have always enjoyed the food here!! The lunch deals are a steal, and the staff was very nice. Give this place a chance, it is worth it!
