Our experience at this restaurant was somewhat confusing. While we were ordering, we had questions for our server. Who did not clearly explain the menu or the way we were ordering. Our server tried to take certain included. Items off of the entree I was ordering and double charge our children for the items since I did not want them and I was going to give them to the children upon receiving it. On our bill We noticed price increases on certain items Vs what was shown on the menu. Whenever we confronted our server about this, she told us the prices had been updated in the computer and not on the menu and then showed us a different menu with higher prices. We told her that was false advertising. She cannot charge us those higher prices. Because the menus she gave us showed the items at a lower price. We had a party of five The server also included twenty percent gratuity For herself did not notify us this before ordering, But we saw it on our bill.The bill also asked if we wanted to tip extra.Of course we did not. It also was not advertised anywhere that a party of 5 or more out be auto charged the gratuity. It was myself my husband and 3 children. Was Pretty shady not legal.
Nice staff the ladies at the front are sweet. Food is usually fresh, sometimes my fried rice is dry, but the flavor is on point. My go to for Habatchi.
Sakura is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Virginia Beach. I usually get the teriyaki or hibachi chicken, and it’s always delicious. If you’re dining in, the service is great and super fast. And if you’re getting takeout, the food still tastes just as good when you get home always hot, fresh, and flavorful. A reliable, tasty spot for Japanese food. Highly recommend! 🍱🔥
First time trying this sushi bar. It’s a cute, cozy, and quiet dine. I was greeted immediately, seated, waited, and served so quickly. I ordered the Spicy Beach Roll. A very tender-type fish meat blend with sweet notes. I also ordered hot jasmine tea to drink. Overall lovely, intimate experience
Awesome appetizers & plenty of veggie options! The service was quick, staff was kind & attentive, the atmosphere was relaxed & welcoming. Love that they have a little veggie sushi section on the menu. We'll be back!
