My favourite japanese restaurant in Golders Green after Akasaka's demise (how sad when that happened).

This place serves big portion of good quality japanese food, with the chance to collect points in exchange for some goodies!

This is one of the best authentic japanese resetaurants in the Ealing area I've been to.

Good quality food, nice portions, will definitely go back again and again.

This place is lovely, it serves authentic japanese food, and most of the customers are japanese.

Food is of good quality, however the portions are small, and over-priced.

Unlikely to go back there anytime soon though, because have found better alternatives nearby.

Not worth the visitThis place reminds me of Hi Sushi.

It's not run by japanese people, rather some Malaysian Chinese. It's not authentic japanese food, but the prices they ask for match those of authentic japanese restaurant.

Really not worth the money to eat there, quality of food is below average, and all the while we were there we felt like we were being scammed.

Not too helpfulYes I must admit the food here is great - love the sukiyaki especially.

However, they are the most un-helpful people you can ever come across with. We wanted to book a table for 10-12 (I know I know...the place is small-ish so it's kinda hard to book a big table), but they refused point blank to hear my explanation that 3 of my party are little kids, and we don't mind sitting on separate tables. All the man said on the phone was, sorry we cannot reserve a table for you, please go to another restaurant.

They could've split us up, we don't mind! Ever since that conversation, I've not been to Sakura yet...and unlikely to...

Good but expensiveThis is a really busy place with good sushi, a bit pricey though. Went there on a busy Saturday night, they had lots of bookings (we didn't book) and yet they managed to fit us in provided we had to give them back the table by a certain time. Waitresses were very helpful, and they food was delicious.
