Sakura Sushi Japanese Restaurant — Restaurant in Coral Springs

I wish I can give negative 5 stars. I have been coming here for 20 years. I came in with my 2 year old daughter for dinner. Ordered the sushi boat for 2 for myself and ordered my daughter a chicken roll and noodles. Long story short when t came time to pay the bill was $178.00. Needless to say my jaw dropped. It clearly stated on the menu it was $41 and change for what I ordered. When I asked the manager what this was all about she gave me some insane explanation that they charge per person? I tried explain her that I'm 1 person. She proceeded to just scream at me in front of my 2 year old and tell me I can't read. Being that I have been coming here for so long I could not believe what was happening. I decided to just give my credit card and dispute it with the credit card company. Be VERY aware of your bill. They will nickel and dime you every way possible. They will charge you for extra ice (which is fine, but at least tell me). The bill is handwritten so you have no idea how to decode it. *keep in mind if you order a specialty fish, such a toro, hamachi belly etc.. you will receive regular tuna and regular hamachi. They scam you. It's quite intriguing. I might also add that this used to be a really good sushi restaurant. I would go as far to say it's quite terrible. The owner is a psychopath. There are far better places to eat sushi. Don't eat here don't support this...

The service was deadly slow tonight. The waitress didn't ask if we wanted to sit in the cute little rooms with the privacy doors where we wanted to sit so instead we were seated in front of tv's showing Bones with gross dead bodies while we tried to eat. My daughter usually gets her rice at the same time as the soup but it was brought with the meal so she was very unhappy. Most of the sushi rolls were bland. We only liked one, the golden jb roll. We wanted to order another golden jb roll but the waitress waited so long to check on us we were afraid we'd be there at least another hour waiting on it so we decided not to order it. I had a miserable time and couldn't wait to leave. My kids usually love this place but even they were all unhappy with it tonight. I haven't been that big a fan since a different waitress got peevish that we didn't ask for separate checks when we first walked in the door. And my tempura on the last visit was not good at all. I like the sushi much better down the street at the mall for less than half the price here. I don't know that I would go back next time my kids want to go...if they even...

The atmosphere of the set up is great~ feels like you were instantly transported to a small restaurant in NYC's Chinatown, which also has Japanese restaurants.

The booths have sliding doors on them to create instant privacy, which I thought was amazing. Makes it easier to have a private conversation.

The staff greets you and our waitress was very nice. She was so quiet in bringing our stuff that it felt like our waters just appeared out of thin air.

The meal itself was great. Amazing flavor and the sushi was very fresh tasting. The shumai (shrimp dumplings) were delicious and the sauce was a great compliment in flavor. My mom and sister were with me, my mother had the Bull Dog roll and another roll I can't quite remember the name, but it had crispy tempura around it. It was very good and the names were cute to give a Florida touch. Mostly referring to the colleges in or near Florida.

My sister had one of the Bento lunches and that had quite a bit of food on it. She also enjoyed her meal very much.

I definitely will say this is a new favorite spot for me~ thank you very much...
