Sakura Southampton Japanese Restaurant

Always enjoy a visit to Sakura, good food, good value, very good service - tempura prawns were excellent.

It really pains me to be disappointed with Sakura as I've eaten there a bunch of times and it's been great, but todays meal was bad. All of the dishes were tepid (except for the tempura, but obviously that had to be cooked) and even the miso soup had no flavour. I hope it's not a trend.

Good food fairly priced and enjoyable atmosphere. Service was prompt and efficient.

Outstanding food & service, our large group of 13 were all very happy

Its always great here with great food and drink wine

Quick and polite service and even a little birthday cake for the birthday girl. Beautiful food as always - thank you!

The restaurant is cozy and warm. Food is great. The waiters are very friendly and helpful.

Good as they followed instructions about separate bills. Tasty food. No paper towels in toilets so nothing to wipe hands on a very cold day !! Need a hand dryer or paper roll/ towels. Unfortunately, the outer door to the storage are was left open propped by a barrel and created a draft for the people at the end of our table . Restaurant was a bit chilly today and leaving that door open.didn't help

Fantastic food and service, highly recommended! Fresh and beautifully presented.

It was really good i like japanese food yip yipee

Excellent service, very polite and great with the gluten free optons

It was okay, but limited choices with the tea and deserts. The food was fine, the beef very hard to chew, but overall it’s fine

Firstly, I would like to say that the food is delicious, and the table service was great. However, it is always so cold in there, you have to eat with your coat on in the cooler months, especially at lunch service. On first impression, someone had been sick right in front of the restaurant entrance, but instead of getting a bucket of water and a brush to sweep it away, customers were left to step in it. You couldn't miss it, there was a lot of it! It wasn't as if the restaurant was busy! The staff are hanging around near the entrance! No fault of the restaurant, I'm sure, but really.... make a better impression for your customers, Sakura, because it was extremely off-putting! Another point to mention, the staff are always quite friendly until it's time to pay. You can see the change in their attitude when they don't get a tip!

Great Japanese restaurant with excellent food and service will definitely go again.

delicious food, reasonable prices staff are very nice. handy location.

Food was amazing, waiters too! I will always recommend this place

Our go to Birthday meal place . Great food Great service

This is my second visit to this restaurant and will continue to return because both food and service are excellent. If you haven't tried it before, the soft shell crab is amazing.

Good Japanese food at reasonable prices, and served quickly by pleasant staff.

We love this place. Food itd so delicious. And we come back

Fantastic, thank you. Food and service both great, all the best.

Usually go to the Sakura in Portsmouth but we saw one in Southampton. Amazing food as always, always the first choice when I want to eat out

The staff are very bust, but the service is still good and are very responsive and friendly, the food is lovely and I cannot recommend this place highly enough, absolute pleasure, thank you Sakura!

Member of staff serving us was very helpful and recommended items to us which turned out very delicious.

Nice location for a good restaurant, good choice of food

The Food, the service and presentation amazing . Thank you

Food was so delicious, we enjoyed . Desert was nice too.

Everything arrived together, except for the gyoza which came right at the end. Sushi & tempura were good. Main courses were underwhelming. Beef dish was gloopy, donburi wasn't great, fukodon was poor.

Amazing food as always, hot and delicious noodles and the sushi was incredible

Good food, very friendly service and free Birthday treat. Thank you!

Lovely place, relaxed and cosy and food lovely, staff friendly

Lovely place. I got the impression that the place is family run and one of the waiters was so happy to give us recommendations. He highly recommended a particular dish and we were delighted to try it.

Always lovely people and food at Sakura. Sashimi amazing. Thanks!

A celebratory meal made extra special by attentive service and delicious food.

Lovely food, friendly and attentive service. Very well done, Sakura.

Stunning - best pork ramen ever! Thank you so much

Great service and excellent food. We really enjoyed it. Thank you.

Food was decent but service left a bit to be desired. Order wasn't taken down properly but not a big deal overall. Food came quickly and portion size was inconsistent but generally ample (especially for the ramen).

Amazing as always, the food is incredible and the staff are wonderful!
