Sakura Japanese Steak, Seafood House & Sushi Bar

A great experience! The food was hot and delicious. It's fun to see the chef make your food on the hibachi.

We came to Sakura for a friend’s birthday and had such a fun time! The restaurant is spacious, cozy, and nicely decorated with ample large size habachi tables. They specialize in teppanyaki, where your meal is cooked right in front of you on a giant grill and served straight onto your plate. If it’s your first time, definitely don’t skip the full hibachi experience. Our server was super helpful and accommodating, especially with our group’s GF needs. The teppan entrée came with soup, salad, and an appetizer. I had the NY strip with chicken liver and fried rice. The steak was excellent, tender and flavorful. The liver was good, not my favorite though. Our chef did a fantastic job cooking for a group of nine while keeping us entertained. It was the perfect balance of showmanship and energy without being too over the top. The food was fresh, well-seasoned, and the portions were huge. Overall, a great spot for tasty food, fun vibes, and dinner time spectacle. I’d recommend for group celebrations or a unique night out if you’re looking for something different.

We decided to try out Sakura on a weekday evening, bringing along my mom and younger sister for their very first hibachi dinner. Unfortunately, the experience fell short of our expectations. Having visited several hibachi restaurants before, I always looked forward to the entertaining performances and lively interactions with the chefs that make the meal enjoyable. However, this time, the atmosphere was noticeably dry and lacked the usual excitement. The focus seemed to be solely on the cooking, with minimal conversation or engagement from the hibachi chef. Service-wise, things didn’t improve. About a minute after the chef left, our server arrived with takeout boxes without asking if we needed anything else. She returned 20 minutes later, again offering boxes but never inquiring if we wanted additional items like drinks or desserts. By that point, my cocktail was already finished, and although I was considering ordering more, the lack of attentiveness made me decide to just pay and leave. In terms of value, the experience felt overpriced for what was offered. I believe I could have enjoyed a comparable hibachi meal at a lower cost elsewhere, especially since the entertainment aspect was missing. The two star is for the cocktail and an open concept place. Overall, we won’t recommend this place

Dear General Manager, On Sunday evening, March 31st, our party of five dined at your Tyson Corner (Viana) establishment. After a 30-minute wait, we were seated at a table and grill that were visibly unclean and sticky. Despite expressing our concerns to the waiter, who indicated the grill would be cleaned by the cook, we found the initial state unacceptable. We were expected to consume salads, soups, and appetizers in an unsanitary environment. A subsequent attempt to clean the table by a busser with a soiled towel further compounded our dissatisfaction. Furthermore, my attempt to address this matter with the manager was met with apparent indifference. This experience was deeply disappointing and has significantly impacted our perception of your restaurant. While I understand that grills require cleaning, the table should have been thoroughly cleaned before seating guests. This level of uncleanliness and the lack of concern from management are unacceptable. I have attached photos as evidence of the unacceptable conditions. While I have no intention of returning, I hope you take this complaint seriously and implement necessary improvements to ensure cleanliness, professionalism, and guest satisfaction moving forward. Thank YOu! -Radwan

My wife and I went to this restaurant last night to celebrate a birthday and we had a blast!! Everything, the food, environment, and the Chef was awesome!!

Great place for dinner and a show. My wife and I dropped in for dinner. We waited just a few minutes for other diners to fill the table, all the while the staff made she we were taken care of. They brought us soup/salad before the tabled filled, which was nice to wet the appetite. The food is excellent - portions good, well seasoned, and perfectly good. Can't be the show, too, and catching shrimp. Great experience, highly recommended.

This place is AWESOME!!! The food is phenomenal, the chefs are amazing and ours was the greatest guy ever!!!!!!!

Visited Sakura restaurant in Vienna, Virginia, today around 3 PM (Sunday). The place was quite calm with very few people around, creating a relaxed atmosphere. Our waitress was exceptionally nice, polite, and friendly, which added to the pleasant experience. We ordered a special that included three items on the plate. The fish on top of rice was fresh and delightful. The chicken teriyaki, while decent, was a bit salty and lacked a certain flavor, and the fried rice could have used a bit more salt. Despite this, the presentation of the dishes was impressive. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and am looking forward to trying more sushi options next time. I like the place and would recommend checking it out.
