Best sushi in town, everything was incredible. The chicken fillet poke bowl was delicious, rich and creamy loaded with fresh veggies. It had just a hint of spice which is perfect for me because I hate spicy foods. The miso soup was so good, probably the best in town. The staff were so friendly. The service was fast and we didn't wait long for a table or for our meals. The restaurant was very clean and had a wonderful aesthetic.... We will be dining there again. Thank you for the meal.

We have eaten here multiple times now and it never disappoints. The service is always good, timely, polite. Is always fresh and the menu has very many options for all flavour palates. Can’t recommend this place enough I could eat it everyday.

Love this place! You can tell it's always very fresh, the menu has great combos and nice selection, and they're always fast and friendly. I've only gotten takeout but the ambiance inside looks good.

We are visiting Fredericton today, and we found this really really nice restaurant. It’s perfect! The environment is just exactly what I like, every corner….We ate a lot, and I like the Philadelphia and the Makis tartares most, and I mean all of the sushi are perfect! I like it very much. And if you are going to visit this city, I recommend you here!

I had a lovely experience here! The food is delicious!!!! I got the sweet potato rolls and the teriyaki chicken and Kim chicken rice balls. If you enjoy sushi or trying new flavors I highly recommend going here. The only even slightly upsetting thing was that I wanted so much more but has to run back to work! Definelty going to be telling everyone I know about this place.

Took a very long time to get our order, we ordered a 56 sushi plater and there was barely any fish in them. Most of our roll had fake crab and sweet potato... we also ordered tartare salmon and it tasted like cheetos! Couple of peices of salmon mixed with a ton of planko wrapped in a letuce . The waitress was nice and polite but the quality of the sushi we got was not great.

November 22, 2024

Little choice, I waited 1 hour for a poke bowl, too much salad, not much rice or salmon and tuna

Fish bones in the rolls. Imitation crab as an ingredient in the 100$ platter, the new tartar rolls are mostly tempura and bits of fish if youre lucky. Spend your money elsewhere, expensive and no quality ingredients in the sushi.

The food is very delicious. The waiters and chefs are very friendly. I will go to this restaurant next time. The restaurant environment is very unique and has very stylish Japanese paper umbrellas. It is very suitable for taking pictures. I will definitely go there again! ! ! !

The absolute worst sushi I have ever had in my life. And when I say bad I was once served a salmon roll that had canned salmon in it, and it was better than this. When we first sat down it seemed nice enough, I ordered a beer to go with our sushi only to be told by the waitress that the owner was waiting to receive the liquor license. Looking at the reviews I can see they have been open for 6 months so that clearly was a lie. My family and I ordered the 79 piece platter. It was prepared quick enough and no wonder there was hardly any fish, Not at all anything like the photo of the plater on google. not even close. Not only very little fish but the fish that was there was only salmon. No tuna, no white fish, Salmon, thats it! The amount of salmon on the whole plater would have been less than a quarter cup. There were 4 salmon niggeri and I would say it took half the salmon on the plate to make them. Everything tastes the same, cucumber, no doubt as every roll was mostly cucumber. 79 piece plater and when we had enough eating rice balls we left 36. One hundred and forty dollars was our bill. A complete rip off. The Superstore sushi would have been better then that. The sushi was so bad I wonder if the sushi chef ever had sushi? They also charged us for extra wasabi. To say that I wont be back is an understatement. Never left a sushi restaurant mad, and feeling ripped off before. I give one star because I cant give zero. PS I did laugh a little when the waitress asked if we wanted to pack the leftovers. NO!!

I recently dined at Sakura Sushi, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The sushi there was absolutely delicious, with each bite showing the restaurants commitment to using fresh, high-quality ingredients. You can taste the difference in every piece the fish was fresh and flavorful, and the rice was perfectly seasoned with special sushi vinegar. The restaurant s ambiance was also a huge plus warm lighting, clean decor, and some relaxing music made it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. The staff was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall pleasant atmosphere. If youre looking for a sushi spot that offers great taste, fresh ingredients, and a nice setting, Sakura is definitely worth a visit. I cant wait to go back and try more from their menu!

Service and food were great at a fair price ! Will be back for sure. Had the 28 piece chefs combo and it was delicious. Thanks to the chef for making great choices on the rolls and sushi. They don t serve alcohol but the tea is very good and fun to share with the table.

My visit to Sakura Sushi was absolutely delightful! The food was top-notch fresh, flavorful, and crafted with real attention to detail. The ambiance was perfect for a relaxing meal, but what truly stood out was the exceptional service. I d like to especially thank our waitress, Tanya, who went above and beyond. For example, when we couldn t decide on a few dishes, she patiently recommended options based on our tastes and made sure everything arrived just the way we liked. Her warm and attentive approach made us feel right at home. A huge thank you to the team at Sakura Sushi for a memorable experience looking forward to visiting again!

First time in Fredericton. Have been craving sushi for a very long time and ordered from Sakura. Lovely couple/owners. Decor very clean, crisp, fresh, with large windows lettng in plenty of light. Food was fresh and well prepared. My only suggestion would be to correct the ratio fish vs tempura. Even if you have to charge more, I would really prefer 85% fish + 15% tempura/veggies in your rolls. Thank you!

The sushi donburi is absolutely delicious . The sauce pairs perfectly with the salad, making it very healthy. The rice is perfectly cooked, and the tuna and salmon taste very fresh. The prices are very reasonable, making it a cozy little place worth visiting often. The owner is also very kind, and the dining environment is clean and comfortable.

I find the high ratings suspicious. This was one of our worst dining experiences in Fredericton. The staff was not mean, but we sat and waited about 20 minutes for the cook to stroll in and start her day. Then, they brought us things we hadnt ordered. Most importantly, the sushis were poorly made and tasteless. A table of six next to us left half of their order untouched and walked out. And so did we. Unless the ownership changed over the last two months, I would discourage food lovers from trying Sakura Sushi.

Pretty disappointed overall. Ordered takeout from here and got the 34 piece Chefs pick tray. They dont list specifically what flavor of rolls are in there, they just list the sizes (large rolls, nigiri, maki). So this was a gamble but I put trust in something labeled the Chefs pick. Unfortunately the rolls overall were way too vegetable forward. If Im being honest, it (the party tray) was mostly cucumber wrapped in rice. The side bits were disappointing too. There was only enough soy sauce to dip about 8 pieces so we had to supplement with our own and a tiny amount of ginger (something we dont keep on hand) so I relinquished mine to my wife. Maybe the al a carte rolls are better but the tray was a big disappointment. At the very least if they described the rolls online then I would have ordered something else.

To the owner: Please reach out to me, Im serious, I want to help your business succeed! The rice needs kombu soaking with it after washing for around 30m-1hr. Then while cooking, it needs to be seasoned as well (rice vinegar, mirin, sugar, salt) and carefully made to not overcook. It should have a glassy surface that hardens around each kernel. The rice was overcooked and unseasoned, which was shocking for a dish where rice is the star and the fish is an accent. Then it was served exclusively with low-sodium soy sauce. The majority of Canadians like things salty. The default should be regular soy sauce and have the option for low sodium if they want it. I have more suggestions, seriously reach out to me, I want to help.
