Good service terrible food, ended up just walking out after getting my order. Received fried rice and egg roll instead of salad and white rice. Chicken was tough and rubbery.

This place used to be AWESOME. What happened, Sakura? :(The food now tastes old - warm sushi that falls apart, hard chicken, cold vegetables, yum yum sauce is weird (used to be GREAT)... even the rice is bad. How do you mess up rice?They are still very nice at the window but the formerly pleasant experience now ends there.

Friendly but the food was not tasty at all. Sesame chicken was mediocre flavored. 70% of each piece was breading. I didn't know it came with a brown rice. I didn't like the flavor either. Got the party roll sushi. It wouldn't stay rolled and it had an old flavor. I spit it out.

WARNING!!! Stay away from this place! Just did a drive-thru order of Chicken Teriyaki! Got home and the chicken is rock hard! Almost like they grilled it frozen and shocked the chicken. The quality of their food keeps getting worse every time I eat here. Don't let the picture fool you! THE CHICKEN IS BAD BAD BAD!I called the restaurant and told them about my experience. At first, after talking to the restaurant manager the lady on the phone said to take a picture and bring it back. I told her the roads were bad and I wasn't going to go back out. She then said people try and steal food. I told her I'd been going here for many years. She seemed not to want to help me. I then told her I'd put in a bad reviews on YELP and Google reviews.

I cannot get enough of Sakura 12!!! They have the best quality food and huge portions for very reasonable prices. I always get the hibachi steak. 10/10 recommend!

Good portion sizes and it's always fresh. My only complaint is that the egg rolls are old sometimes.

Great place for excellent sushi and priced reasonably enough to go multiple times a week! I Love the food and you will too! ?♥️Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly! Our children started eating sushi at 3 and 5 years old and they still love running thru Sakura's drive-thru and grabbing lunch when they are in town!

Their food is great for the unexpected location and the prices are reasonable. Wish they would have stayed on Nicholasville rd.

It may not look like much from the outside, but the food quality is top notch. I usually order the steak hibachi. It will last me 2-3 meals at least and tastes great.
