  my friends and i were looking for a sushi spot to visit during our lunch hour at work and i have to say- we're so glad we gave sakura sushi a shot!
  
  sakura sushi is on the smaller side when compared to other sushi restaurants, but to be very honest, i loved it! it does have limited seating but it was just myself and two girlfriends so we fit in perfectly fine. it's a spot that's tucked away in the warden and steeles plaza next to a few hair salons and the next plaza over is where you can find a shoppers drug mart, boston pizza, t&t, starbucks, subway, etc.
  
  i do believe the owners are husband and wife (like another review said: a mom and pop shop!) and they were very sweet to us when we walked in, immediately directing us to one of the bigger open tables and pointing us to the variety (3 pages full!) of box specials right away.
  
  i don't exactly remember which sets we ordered but i do know that my bulgogi set, gal pal #1's kalgi set and gal pal #2's salmon teriyaki sets were fabulous- not to mention, we killed the miso soup and salad the second they were put on our table! i know that everyone has different tastes and that our classifications of "good flavours" might not match up with others but i'll still put it down that the tastes were amazing! the pricing is definitely more on the affordable side when compared to other bento restaurants, the portion sizes were just right for our little lunch outing (we were full for the rest of the work day!) and we were in and out of the spot in less than an hour, conversations included.
  
  we are definitely going to make sakura sushi our designated lunch date spot from now on and so should you! next time, we'll make sure to dig in to the sushi/sashimi too.

  ?? @ all the good reviews here. I honestly feel bad for leaving a negative review since it is a mom and pops place but why waste money on bad sushi?
  
  We got the love boat which came with a variety of sushi, sashimi, 6 pieces of California roll and 6 piece spicy salmon for ~$35 and also a bento box with teriyaki chicken for ~$12.
  
  The first piece of eel sushi I ate was scorching hot. I kept hearing a microwave in the background so I'm pretty sure the eel and the chicken were just microwaved.
  
  The rice itself was way too soft and mushy and the temperature of the rice was too hot.
  
  The fish was below par of even an AYCE place which is rather disappointing. The salmon was slimey and the butter fish was way too fishy.
  
  For over $60 I should've just stuck to my go-to sushi place.

  This is the closest Japanese sushi restaurant to my office and I love their food! They have really cheap daily lunch specials which are packed with food. I get their bulgogi bento and albeit they are a Japanese restaurant, their bulgogi tastes exactly the same as some of the Korean places I've gone to. I've also had their spider roll and black dynamite rolls and they are equally delicious.
  The seating area is small and divey. The inside is like a lot of small hole in the wall sushi places. The owners are very nice and service is quick and polite.

  True mom and pop shop, literally. It's a small restaurant with not many seats, tucked away in the Warden/Steeles plaza.
  
  Selection for sushi and boxes is quite diverse. There's also udon, ramen and even pork bone soup. I had a sushi bento box, sushi roll and chirashi. Prices are very reasonable. The portion is a bit on the smaller side, compared to most sushi places.

  They are good but they serve too much salmon I wish I had more variety since we got a boat.
  
  Food was fresh but I've had better. Price was ok not too expensive.
