After about a dozen orders it has been perfect every time. The chef is extremely consistent and the food is high quality. Staff is super friendly. This is the only sushi place in my area that I will go to from now on.
They seem to always have some sort of special so double check currently it’s buy one specialty roll get one for 30% off.
They do a cucumber roll called the Naruto if you are doing carb free.
1 month later: came back for round two and it was just as perfect as the first!! My wife and I would give this place an extra star if we could. We come all the way from Rochester to eat here. That’s saying something. Spectacular service every time. Love this place!
Upon walking in, I can say the atmosphere hasn’t changed much from Mizumi. They kept most of the same seating and everything. Makes sense as it’s simply another bistro so everything can be used. It’s a nice little quaint atmosphere that I quite enjoy. I was greeted instantly by a very pleasant lady who then helped me figure out the situation. It would seem that at the moment they’re more geared towards takeout rather than dine-in for they don’t have any actual plates or cutteries for dining in. Honestly the smart choice to go with for it’s location in town, being hidden away and takeout most likely being it’s primary business. The biggest distinction right off the bat is that Sakura serves bubble tea whereas Mizumi had served liquor. Where some may prefer liquor, I am personally in the group of bubble tea for life. It was a pleasant thing to see. I ended up ordering the classic milk tea and a serving of fried rice—out of respect to the late Mizumi but as well as to see if Sakura can live up to my high praises for Mizumi’s fried rice that had blown me away for its rich taste in such a simplistic dish.
My wait time was quite short, having my food brought to me within 5 minutes. Granted I was the only customer in at the time, but hey that’s pretty good. Now to the food itself. It was wonderful! The bubble tea was lovely. It’s always great to see more bubble tea areas in the southern metro area, if you can even call Lakeville and Apple Valley that. It’s been so lacking and now seeing all these places rise up like Nihao Tea and Fuchi Poke is such a treat. My taste buds for bubble tea is not good enough to distinguish whether it was better than the other places or not, but I will say that it was definitely good tea. No complaints.
As for the rice, it was pleasant. It wasn’t quite the same level of balance that Mizumi had commanded, but I was more than satisfied. Hibachi rice really hits different. Each grain is beautifully textured and you can feel it. If you wish for more flavor, they have yum yum sauce as well as basic soy sauce which is more than enough. The steak was perfectly cooked a wonderful medium, not too chewy or raw—pleasant for all.
Overrall I would definitely come back—especially with the promo they got going on right now. But even without it, I would. It’s a nice little gem to replace Mizumi, and frankly I’d say they 1-upped Mizumi with their bubble tea. Next time I’ll try out some sushi and see how that goes. Wonderful to see an Asian bistro return to Lakeville and I wish the best to the place. They have my support for sure.
