Review by Rico Ratke

Izakaya Sakura is a delightful gem on Convoy Street! 🌟 The cozy atmosphere makes it perfect for a casual dinner. I highly recommend the chirashi don - the sashimi was unbelievably fresh, especially the yellowtail and salmon! The okonomiyaki was another standout; fluffy and packed with flavor.

The service was attentive, and I was charmed by the unique sake-shot tradition used to show gratitude! Just a heads up, the parking can be a bit tricky, so arriving early is a good idea. Overall, this is a must-visit for authentic Japanese comfort food! 🍣✨
