Sakura Finest in North Somerset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This is the ONLY Japanese restaurant I've eaten in the country that has authentic Japanese food, made exquisitely and with class and taste. Sorry but other Japanese restaurants couldn't begin to compare to this outlet. You'll be leaving this establishment fulfilled. Try out their Katsudon and Sashimi. The best! Gambatte Sakura!

Best Japanese restaurant in The South West

Sakura is a must go restaurant. I go here reguarly for lunch as it never fails to impress me. Amazing fresh food, the lunch platters are filling and affordable and the sushi rolls are all full of flavour. Service is great and staff are very friendly and welcoming :)

I've been here a handful of times and every single time the food has been consistently delicious! My partner had the salmon teppanyaki which looked amazing. I had the dragon roll which was cooked and presented perfectly. Would highly recommend Sakura to anyone who is staying in Weston!!

Probably one, if not the, best restaurants in Weston. Strongly recommend but book a table.

Great food, atmosphere, and very friendly staff.

Incredible food. Great service. I love it here.

Top notch Japanese restaurant. I had some Tuna Sashimi, Scallops (particularly good) and Katsudon. The breaded pork for the Katsudon was rather meatier than I'm accustomed to, but that doesn't seem something one should complain about too loudly! Staff were very welcoming, and particularly willing to cater to my intolerance of chilli, providing a delicious (free) alternative tasting salad to start.

Fresh sushi, made to order. Absolutely delicious. Will definitely be coming back here! Particularly recommend the black tiger prawn sashimi and the tuna thin rolls. Service was a little slow when we arrived but it’s a restaurant in demand so that was to be expected and the sushi was worth the wait! If you can get a booking, 100% go.

Fantastic quality and amazing value. I visited shortly after moving to the area about a month ago, and have already been 4 times... July 2024 update - another outstanding lunch today. Photo added

Staff are really friendly and attentive. The food was also really good.

This is a fabulous Japanese restaurant, excellent food, hosts very welcoming and friendly. Been several times will be returning again soon

Great value set lunch. Lovely fresh and delicious sushi and katsu curry. Delicious pickles and sides. Highly recommend.

JUST GO!! We had the most incredible meal at Sakura. Could not fault a single thing. The food was out of this world. We ordered a range of different starters which were all to die for! We then ordered some mains which again were insanely good. The service was great and all the staff from chefs to front of house were so friendly and attentive. The price is extremely reasonable. We're so glad we've found this restaurant as it's local to us but l'd recommend booking in advance as it can get very busy at peak times. Will definitely be returning!!! :)

Their food and atmosphere made me feel like I was back in Japan. I'm gladful that there are such excellent quality Japanese restaurants in the UK. I definitely will come back again!

Lovely Japanese food and atmosphere! Beautifully decorated inside. Sushi was really good quality, and the salmon donburi bowl was delicious 10/10 (would definitely recommend for any salmon sushi lovers). Duck spring rolls had actual slices of duck meat, as opposed to the minced version, and they were amazing. The pork Tonkatsu was the only disappointment, it was okay, a little dry. We also have an allergy to molluscs and crustaceans, which we told the staff about, and had no issues with cross contamination, which is always a slight worry at a Japanese restaurant. Would also advise booking in advance, we were there on a Thursday night and seemed really busy. Overall, it definitely hits that sushi craving! 10/10 🍣🥟

Been going here for years, birthdays, special occasions you name it we go to Sakura for it. The food is great. However I called up at 6:30pm on Wednesday to book a table for 7pm the next day and the lady I spoke to said they were booked but that they had availability at the sushi bar for that time which I could book, which I agreed to and confirmed 7pm tomorrow at the sushi bar which she said yes to. Having just got back from attempting to attend this booking I was told that there was no such booking and that I must not have tried booking, I then showed the member of staff the phone call log showing the time that I rang at (which she was adamant that I show to prove I wasn’t lying) she then turned around and said phone call was only 55 seconds long and that wasn’t long enough to be able to make a booking. So after being called a liar twice, and after many good visits, I will not be attending here again, don’t think it’s acceptable to treat any customer like this let alone one that visits every other month or so. Shame but after the way it was put so rudely to me that I couldn’t have booked and I must be making it up, I won’t go back.

Wonderful food, beautiful atmosphere and efficient service, as it is on every visit

Good stars all round, for this beautiful restaurant. What delicious food, a vast menu, excellent service and calming atmosphere. I really enjoyed myself and can’t wait to take my partner

Exceptional food at a great price. The service is also brilliant. Breaded tuna starter was £7.50. Duck sushi was £7 Seafood noodles was £12.50. Not the biggest restaurant, so I would recommend booking in advance.

What a delightful restaurant, lovely relaxing atmosphere, waitresses were kind, patient and extremely helpful. The food was divine, so fresh, served steaming hot, presented beautifully and just incredible, this chef is top top class. We left the restaurant full to the brim and very satisfied, and the prices didn't break the bank either. Amazing fresh, big portions for a extremely reasonable price. Our first experience of Sakura, book for a family member birthday and the staff made this evening one he will remember. Perfect 👌 Thank you all for the most wonderful evening.

Great place .the foods is lush and i was full when i left

Absolutely beautiful meal for my birthday with my son and his girlfriend we ate a lot of food and it was very reasonable

Excellent food and excellent service! I highly recommend coming here as I love Japanese food and this is some of the best I had! The staff is also very lovely 🫶🏼

Absolutely amazing, didn't think it was my kinda thing but omg am I glad I went, the food is out of this world the staff are lovely and the food is very reasonably priced would highly recommend

Very tasty and fresh, the portions are good and the sushis were one of the best I've ever tried. The decoration and the plates were typically japanese! However, it took them 45 min to bring the noodles we ordered ... we were quite hungry and a bit disappointed to have to wait all that time when others who came way after us got their order.

Great friendly staff and excellent food

The food is amazing. Unfortunately couldn't sit at restaurant as had my pup with us but the owner/ manager was lovely enough to let us do take away order while there and boy was the sushi worth the wait and the round trip. Totally recommend

Finally find a authentic Japanese food in uk . Sushi made with Japanese chef , it’s so good . The sashimi is so fresh with reasonable price, highly recommended. Must try the sashimi and spicy tune don.

Warm welcome. Always remembered. Great food

Ended up ill after eating here for the first time , I will not be visiting again When it's busy service is very sluggish Very warm building when full could do with more air flow

Great food great price nice friendly staff

Visited for my birthday and it's the best sushi we've had, the chef even gave us a few taster of something he was working on. Never had scallops before as sushi and they are now a favourite! 🤤 Total was around £90 for two with wine and sake and multiple dishes, more than we would normally spend but we feel it was worth it as a treat. I'll certainly go again as a if I'm back in the area.

Never been and wish we had ! Great value and amazing quality !

Had a lovely meal in a nice relaxing atmosphere. Very reasonable prices. Would recommend you book

Love this place so much! The food never disappoints and the staff are always so friendly. Highly recommend the Crispy Duck and the Spicy Rock Shrimp

Beautiful food, great atmosphere and even better sake

Beautiful restaurant. Staff are really nice and welcoming. Chef is does amazing work and very friendly. And the sushi and everything else is amazing even the drinks are nice. Atmosphere is amazing and a really cute restaurant I would definitely recommend if you are a sushi lover ! 👩🏻‍🍳❤️

One of the absolute best restaurants in Weston! Food is stunning, great atmosphere, lovely staff. Cannot wait to return.

Everthing from start to finish was great. The food still tasty and good value. Service spot on, even when it was quiet the atmosphere and back ground music were relaxing and in context to the restuarant.

The food was so good! The restaurant was busy with only 2 servers, so we knew things were not going to be rushed. But they took our orders & it came out piping hot, & it was clearly freshly made. It all tasted amazing 👏🏼 we got starters, mains & desserts, & we were there for over 2 hours. It was delightful!

Delicious authentic Japanese food. The staff were so attentive and happy. I will definitely be returning soon.

Went here last August whilst on holiday with my daughter. It's a nice place to eat, nice food. Only thing that let it down was thecservice was a bit slow. Also, the choice of desserts was very limited and rather bland.

Food and service was amazing. Squid was some of the best we have had in a long time.

Accidentally came across it but will be back and told everyone who will listen how good it is. Food is amazing

Visited on a Wednesday. 7.30. The restaurant was full and the food was amazing. The service however was mediocre. We had to ask for everything the entire evening, more drinks, dessert menus, extra cutlery etc. The worst bit about the experience was the temperature. It was FREEZING cold in the restaurant to the point we were sat with coats on from start to finish. We weren’t even sat close to a door / windows. I would visit again, maybe in the summer!

An absolute pleasure to eat here. Everything we tried was beautiful and tasty. The scallops starter was melt in your mouth deliciousness. The mains were presented so well and also tasted yummy. Very reasonably priced! The team working there were all lovely. Highly recommend booking in advance.

Busy on a Friday lunch time Excellent food

Honestly my favourite restaurant. There is nowhere else that I go to anywhere near as regular as sakura. The food is amazing, I'd recommend going for lunch and having a lunch platter, large variety and always tasty and filling. Staff are all lovely, always going the extra mile and have all been very kind to me. Will be a life long customer! Can get fairly busy, but booking a table through their Facebook account is always easy

Our favourite restaurant in Weston: we’ve been coming here for years and can’t recommend it enough. The staff are wonderful and the menu offers many delicious options, our favourites include the spicy rock shrimp, miso aubergine, salmon teriyaki and more: just so many lovely things to choose from. Very good value for money and a lovely place that we are so lucky to have in Weston.

Nice place with amazing decoration which makes you feel like if you were in Japan. Chicken katsu was outstanding and the best one I ever had. Salmon nigiri were good and hosomaki were spot on. Homemade mango cheesecake for dessert. One of the best meal experiences you can have in Weston.

Amazing sushi restaurant. The sushi we had was delicious. The chicken was really tasty and the crumbs very well done. Flavour amazing. The staff was really good, friendly and efficient. We had also a mango cheesecake for dessert which was homemade and very nice. Really recommended place

Incredible food and amazing service, absolutely beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend getting Omakaze for those who love proper sushi!

Food is fantastic and good service

Really good restaurant and excellent fresh food. Delicious.

Amazing food, great service, lots of variety on the menu and very reasonable pricing.

BEST sushi I’ve ever tried in England. Everything is fairly priced and definitely very worth it for the quality. Especially recommend the spicy salmon don which tastes delightful with tiny bits of spiciness and with toasted sesame oil added in which smelled great. The sashimi were fresh. The rolls felt authentic without excessive sauces. Recommend booking beforehand since it got full quickly. Definitely hope to visit again one day!

Fabulous meal, lovely staff and great atmosphere.

The food is superb. I recommend any of the sushi dishes. I had the pork belly ramen, and the broth was full of flavour. Highly recommend this place

Some of the best Asian food I’ve have had in a very long time Highly recommend ramen with sushi

Every visit is a pleasure, been going for many years and the food is incredible. A must visit in western, and worth the hour drive it takes us to get there! Crispy squid and dragon rolls are my personal favourites. Staff are friendly and attentive. 10/10

Love eating here..the food and staff are amazing with a great atmosphere.

1st ever time for Japanese food . My son comes here all the time. It was amazing , we all loved the food , the staff were absolutely lovely . If you want amazing food go here x

Today we tried Mochi's so we had them to takeaway. Lovely friendly service. Mochi's were very good.

We’ve not only had a great meal in Sakura restaurant last night, but I’ve also been treated to a surprise bday cheer from the staff and a complimentary mini cake to celebrate the occasion! The food is amazing and the staff are very friendly and quick to respond. We’ve been a few times now and can’t thank them enough for their continued high standards.

Fantastic Japanese restaurant. Delicious authentic food and excellent service.

Brilliant little restaurant. Felt really authentic. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes. I had seafood yakisoba, and it was delicious. Speed was the only slight letdown, but everything else was top-notch. Spider roll as a side dish was lush.

Nice Japanese restaurant in Weston. Freshly prepared sushi and Japanese dishes. Good value lunch sets too. The Katsu was generous ,crispy and tasty, yaki udon nice too. Friendly, quick service. Enjoyed the lunch.

Just fantastic! The food is truly amazing. It’s worth the 30 min drive!

Delicious authentic Japanese food and ambience.

Came few weeks ago and it was great but tonight was overcharged too much.

Good Japanese restaurants in UK with reasonable prices and nice service.

I got the Chicken Thigh starter, it was soo good. The Mrs got the Aubergine... I don't like Aubergine, UNTIL NOW. ORDER. THE. AUBERGINE. STARTER. It was like a silky sweet delight, I don't know what voodoo magic they used, but next time I'm ordering two of those and no mains 😅

Great food and superb service... Best Japanese restaurant in Weston-super-mare... 23-Sept-2023 Yet another wonderful visit to Sakura for lunch. We introduced a friend to this fantastic friendly restaurant. Sakura IS the best restaurant in Weston-super-mare especially Japanese food.

Exceptional food. Some of the best my wife and I have ever eaten and she worked in Japanese food for a long time. She always picks what we eat and everything was excellent, all the sushi was sublime. The service was friendly and efficient and the atmosphere was great - really fun and full on a sunny Friday evening. Thank you Sakura - worth a visit to Weston just for this restaurant. 🌸🌸🌸

Expensive. Service terrible (we're still waiting for one of meals). Food not good apart fromca couple of the starters. Reports that the kitchen is filthy.

If it's japanese your looking for there is no better place in weston

The food was great specially the sushi roll. Great service and friendly staffs.

Loved it here. I go here a couple times a year as a reward. The presentation of the food is insane, just aswell as the taste. I personally had the sushi, teriyaki, and the ramen. The best Japanese food I have ever ate. Presented as if it was Art.

Favourite restaurant in Weston. Food is always delicious and staff are always happy and friendly!

The most incredible burgers we’ve ever had. I rarely leave reviews but on this occasion I had to. Delivery took a while but it was absolutely worth the wait.

Loved this restaurant. The food was cooked perfectly. Will definitely be back as well as recommending to friends and family.

Delicious food with first class service and attention to detail - we ate there last night and it was an absolute delight, right down to the birthday treat brought out because one of the staff overheard us mentioning someone's birthday

I had a great time at Sakura, I went with 3 other people lovely restaurant with lovely staff. They let you know when they'll be closed and they're menu on Facebook, averagely priced between £9 and £15 for a main just matter what you choose, would love some more unagi dishes but I can't hate. Lovely place and when their a birthday they sing and play a song out of the speakers which is really nice, I would recommend this to a friend. It may just be me but the broth on the ramen didn't have too much flavour but the sushi was 10/10

This is one of the finest restaurants around. Japanese food at its best. Recommended to book as they are always busy, they don’t have lots of tables as they concentrate on serving the very best quality food. I can’t recommend this place enough, it’s truly an outstanding place to eat.

Excellent Japanese foods with good customer service! Highly recommend sashimi, sushi roll and sushi😘👍

Everybody's good at cooking something, they're good at cooking ramen

The best Japanese food in Bristol! ❣️The price is economical and cost-effective. Everything is delicious. Set menus are available on weekdays from Monday to Friday, and the a la carte spicy tuna rice on the menu is highly recommended. Courteous, friendly and kind, it's best to book a table in advance.

We really enjoyed the yummy Japanese food here. Especially the Tuna Don, it’s the best ever. It’s amazing. The staff are all very nice and welcoming. After 6pm it’s free parking on street outside the restaurant. Please check again when you arrive.

Cannot fault this place. If you want the best sushi in town and a great choice of wines and sakes, this is the place for you. Very well priced and excellent service too.

Very tasty food. Great service. Nice atmosphere. Good value for money. Been here a few times and this place is consistently good. Update 2023 still my favourite restaurant.

Excellent, fresh and really delicious sushi. I have been there twice now and each time It was tasty and great experience and so reasonably priced for such a quality food. Well recommend

Sakura is 100% the best Japanese restaurant I have ever been to. The food is excellent and always consistently amazing. I have been to many Japanese restaurants and nothing compares. Sakura is my happy place and honestly nothing beats this restaurant. 100% recommend.

Very nice sushi place. Good service and great food. We had lots of fresh sashimi and some sushi rolls. All very well made. We’ll be back👍🏻

Went for Dinner last night, lovely warm welcome beautiful restaurant with lovely menu, well worth a visit

Had a girls' night out celebrating a birthday,excellent food, excellent service . It's definitely worth a visit.

Great authentic Japanese restaurant, will be returning soon.

good sashimi and sushi Not recommend ramen.

Updated review May 2023 This was our first visit since Sakura moved to a new location. It was just as wonderful as ever. Excellent service, beautiful food that you can see is freshly prepared. Reservation is recommended, but they do take walk-ins if there is availability. The price is still great for such good quality food and service. ... I make a point to have a meal at Sakura every time I visit Weston. I love Japanese food, and Sakura is one of the best. There is plenty of choice on the menu but I'll usually go for noodles and sashimi. It is a little expensive but that's to be expected for this quality and style of food. Service is always good too. You can reserve a table but they'll accommodate if you walk in if there's availability.

Best place to eat in weston! Food is always amazing here!
