| Reviews: | "This mixed restaurent which has Sushi,Korean and Chinese food has a 5 person Sushi
bar which has Sushi & Sashimi. I ordered the Combo Deluxe at $29.95 what I got was the worst
sushi and sashimi that I have ever had. This is one of the only places that I would say to any
one that follows the Sushi World Guide NEVER TO GO TO.

| Reviews: | "Small, multi-level sushi and noodle bar with brass and wood Japanese look right in the heart of Virginia´s Corner bar scene. The atmosphere is not as contemporary and ´cool´ as Charlotteville´s Tokyo Rose, but the food is quite good and a bit less expensive." |

We visited Charlottesville and checked out Sakura. It was a cute little place. We
got teriyaki salmon lunchbox, udon soup, and soup with tempura. Everything was sweeter than it
should be - the salmon, the tempura soup was very sweet, even the salad dressing. The udon soup
was bland - using bonito flakes would have made it much tastier. All in all, we were grateful to
have some Japanese food in the middle of VA.

| Reviews: | "Really great sushi in a cool atmosphere. The atmosphere is ´hip´ - all black with an indi rock club in the basement. Although, there is a scene there, the sushi is the best in Central Virginia." |
