Restaurante Japonés Sakura — Restaurant in Santa Cruz de Tenerife

Overall the food was dry and oily. Not recommended.

Not at all authentic. Japanese food in Japan is usually of a high standard. (I lived in Kyoto for 2 years so I know).

Tampoco es muy profesional retirar las bebidas antes de terminarlas o por lo menos preguntarlo. Si te sirven un postre en mal estado, que menos que unas disculpas y una comprobación de los hechos. No querer llevar la razón a pesar de todo. Y si te piden una hoja de reclamaciones, lo profesional es tramitarla y no tratar de engañar al cliente que para eso existen tanto la normativa como la...
