★★★★★ 5.0 Adrienne DeVos · Dec 2024

It’s taken me 10 years to talk my husband into giving this restaurant a try. Its location (at the end of a strip mall anchored by Hamden’s supermarket for poor people) made him suspicious. And when you’re eating raw fish, you want to be confident in the quality of your food. Despite the somewhat shady location, it’s a totally different experience once you step inside. There’s a little pond with fish and turtles in it, some fake glowing cherry blossom trees (fun fact: that’s what “Sakura” means in Japanese), and a circle-shaped bar that all contribute to much better ambiance than you would expect in the price rite plaza. I’m only giving it four stars for ambiance though because a) my husband was weirded out by the fake fish on the wall in the bar area that he had to look at during the whol

I come here regularly, the service is always good and the staff is friendly, the food is great as well. I believe they are one of the better places to get the “bang for your buck” they keep the restaurant clean and it has a nice atmosphere I would highly recommend this establishment, I always enjoy it here

One of my favorite sushi restaurant. Always friendly and fast service and the food is amazing. I love that there is no extra charge for the soy wraps. Their fried ice cream and frozen mango mojito are to die for!!!

My favorite Hibachi spot!!! Food is always fresh and flavorful! The sauce the meat and vegetables are grilled in is amazing! Great portions! Try out a Scorpion Bowl!!! Ok so by now I have been numerous times and have never been disappointed!! The Chefs have great personalities and add excitement to your dining experience!! The kids would luv it!! I always have shrimp tempura and kani salad as an appetizer. Great portions and fresh ingredients make for a great meal!! Seafood is always fresh and meats are always tender and flavorful!!!

Typical hibachi restaurant, nothing very special. Decor is very out dated. Flavor for the steak was good but fried rice lacked. I heard they have another restaurant with better reviews, may try that one
