Sakura Teppan Steak & Sushi - Teppanyaki Restaurants in Tucson, Arizona, USA

Celebrated an anniversary with my wife here recently and what an excellent decision! We've done hibachi at many places and thought we had seen it all, but our chef pulled out some tricks during our meal that we'd never seen before. The food was great, the price was reasonable, and everyone we interacted with during our visit was wonderful. Highly recommend for special occasions or any time.

We haven't been to Sakura in many years so we decided it would be a great place to celebrate a birthday! Isaiah was our chef for the night and he did a great job. Very positive experience and the food and sushi were great!

This place is very lively, and busy. If you’re planning for. Hibachi, I recommend calling ahead and making a reservation. The food is like any other hibachi place. The portions are generous. We loved our hibachi experience

I brought my wife and my two children to come and have a great time and have some Asian cuisine. I was blessed enough to have the cook by the name of Isaiah. Who was More than amazing. Our waitress grace was fantastic. Very highly recommended

The guy preparing our meals was awesome. Really funny and family friendly environment. None of the employees seemed down to work there. Everyone was so friendly and the food was amazing. Thought it was gonna be bland, but no. Its was delicious! Like as if they made it with love. Can't wait to go back. I want a second try at catching the shrimp when they chuck it at u. It was awesome. It brings, having dinner with the family to a whole new level.

This is a nice restaurant and a fun experience. It’s always fun watching someone make the food in front of you at your table. The sushi was very tasty and also a larger portion size than expected. It is pricey, but it is good food and fun.

My daughter and her fiance took me for my birthday dinner...I loved the experience! The food was excellent, as well as the leftovers that sustained me for the next couple of days. The gentleman who grilled our dinner was thoroughly entertaining. I am just waiting for the chance to go back.

Overall - VERY GOOD! Restaurant has great foundation with awesome food but with things that can be improved upon. (Also I was only on the sushi side so I can't say anything about the Teppanyaki side even though I heard positive commotion!) Little things to improve - Lighting and atmosphere can be improved a bit with a more even temp as some spots are hotter and colder than others. Too many different menus that have some organization, but I think it could definitely be done better with everything being compacted into one menu with different subcategories. There are some rolls that are very similar to each other that should be maybe classified into certain groups of similarity in case someone wants different rolls of variety or all rolls to be the same. (All of them tasted great though.) Server was nice, and provided good service. Pricing is a little more expensive than I want it to be but the quality of food is in the same boat as the price. Last thing is presentation for 2 of my rolls. Nice and standard! Nothing wrong but they looked the same. It would be cool to see all the rolls have something that only that 1 roll has for it to be itself. But that is just my perception. Things I LOVED - Taste! Anyone fans of masago? (Small fish eggs) me and my mom are a little crazy for them and they definitely deliver! Great amount for the rolls that have them and the quality of the food again is awesome! Some foods show the quality of the ingredients and their taste balances nicely! Wasn't crowded but still welcomed to sit right away and was eager for us to dine. Great attitude and staff. Now the star of the show - The Sunrise Roll. Holy cow I don't know if the chef like us or something but damn that roll was NICE. Excellent presentation and very satisfying colors of the fish and nice pleasant sauce on the bottom! Anyone who likes sashimi but wants sushi would LOVE this roll! Nice mellow spring onions with nicely layered fish on top of the sushi and was truly worth more than it's price. And it looked like it was made with lots of love behind it more than the others! Appetizers were great and I recommend them too! (Had the squid salad and it is better than other places that I have had.) Overall... GREAT dining experience that I highly recommend! Obviously some improvements can and maybe should be made but, that's with every restaurant! Definitely not an everyday spending type of restaurant and is a once on occasion type, but you are going to remember those occasions! Great food and taste and slightly higher than my optimal spending prices match the quality of the food! Please don't let any of my small critiques discourage you from this fine restaurant as it is great and you should judge it for yourself! Overall highly recommend!
