Really surprisingly great Hongkongese food! Love the great variety and equally delicious yet consistent dishes, Beef tendon, beef brisket and beef tripe with vermicelli in soup, (Curry) Beef brisket and beef tendon with rice, Grilled Aubergine with Beef ( Rice Bowl ), French Toast (Peanut butter filling, butter & syrup and condensed milk on top). Along with the fantastic drinks, iced lemon tea, hot milk tea, hot lemon tea, are all excellent to be served, resemble the close memories we've shared regarding to Hong Kong style daily cuisine, which is to be frankly speaking, rarely to be found in the UK, exceed my expectations before my arrival and go way beyond the ceilings. The staff are very friendly and nice, much appreciated their help and attitude, acknowledged us the table shall be ready in a short while later. In addition, we had a good time chatting with the women in charge of the store, as she's a very sincere and genuine person, she let us know we do not have to rush to leave the restaurant, we can stay as long as we wish, just make sure we don't have other plans to order foods and drinks as they are closing the kitchen. Exchanging interesting life stories and unforgettable experiences we had in the UK and Hong Kong, connects us in terms of the sense of identity as HongKonger and entering a whole new country: UK. The Sakura restaurant is definitely scoring 10/10, perfect taste of quality food from Hong Kong and everything else is on point. Fabulous 👌 !!!!!!

Had the worst experience ever. Firstly we ordered 2 rice dish and a soup, my friend’s rice came after around 20ish minutes wait but then my rice waited around 40mins which is ridiculous. The big family group who ordered after us got their food and finished before my rice and soup arrived. Asked them why and they said my rice takes longer to make 😅. My rice finally came but after several bits I found a barcode sticker in my food!!! They didn’t really apologised for it but made me a new one within 5-10 minutes (took them so quick to make a new one compared to the first time) so I don’t understand why I had to wait 40 minutes the first time. The soup DOES NOT TASTE LIKE WHAT IT SUPPOSE TO BE, it tasted like soap for some reason and no vinegar either. As my friend already finished his rice before my food arrived, he added some more dishes to eat. We ordered a rice with chicken dish and asked for no rice as only wanted the chicken. The dish was soaked in oil 🤮🤮 (you can literally see it in the photo we took). The salt and pepper chips were tasteless too (suppose to have salt and pepper at least). It was overall the worst experience ever at a Chinese restaurant. Yes I understand you are busy but please sort out the order and timing that dishes arrives to customers. 😵💫 Never coming back again and will tell friends not to too!!

Finally managed to find a seat passing by as it's normally packed and there are no seats available. Asked for the best soup they have and they recommended me a beef noodle soup. It looked great on paper - beef tenderloin, tripe and stock beef. Unfortunately it was the worst soup I've ever had. Broth was tasteless, tasted like there were no spices and not salty enough. No condiments on table to add either. It stank like poorly cleaned tripe and that was an overwhelming aroma, I'm a tripe lover and know how it should taste. The chunkier pieces of beef with pieces on fat were glistening like spilt petrol, never seen anything like that. Except for meat, there were only instant ramen like noodles, 3 pieces of spinach/other leafy green and one sliced potato. Mandatory 10% service charge so be aware. Nobody else in the restaurant had a soup on their table, it was probably a mistake to order it in the first place, but went for recommendation... Can't comment on other menu items but what I had was terrible and probably stale so won't be back.

Wanted to like very much but had a worse experience second time than first. Some dishes are very nice and big but there's few vegetarian dishes, which is a bit of a shame. Was initially overcharged for a simple vegetable dish and rice was separate for an extra £3.50 which seems a lot, though I was then given it for free, maybe due to the overcharging. The vegetable dish was fine and plenty if unexciting. Crispy bun dessert was very disappointing, it's basically a toasted barmcake with a bit of butter and condensed milk on it, and to me the butter tasted slightly soup or off, but maybe it's the intentional taste I'm not an expert. The aubergine and meat dishes are a lot better I believe, so still 4 stars to give the benefit of the doubt, but staff could be more welcoming to people new to the cuisine maybe. The Hong Kong style tea is delicious & highly recommended.

As a local from Hong Kong, I can dare say the food here reminds me of those you can find in Hong Kong Diners, aka Cha Chan Teng. The beef brisket curry as well as the sweet and sour pork are not only authentic, but also amongst the best HK style dishes I've tried so far. The curry is very aromatic and mildly spicy with super soft tender meat/tendon. Seasoning of the sweet and sour is on point, having a good balance of both. With just adding a quid, you'll get a drink too! Definitely don't miss out the classic HK style iced milk tea (Dong Nai Cha) or iced lemon tea (Dong Ling Cha) for a more comprehensive taste of the cuisine. Highly recommend if you want a taste of Hong Kong Style food!

This is a classic and small Hong Kong style diner. It was very busy on an Easter Monday evening. Their goto dish is a bowl of soupy braised beef noodles with tendons and tripe. Anything else on the menu could be crossed off due to running out of supplies. They had hand written Chinese signs with daily specials stuck around the tiny store - you need to check what's available. Get past these cultural peculiarities and you get great tasting food with huge belly filling portions and very reasonable prices. Our group of 6 had a sit down dinner with a drink each for £63 all in
