Sakura Sushi and Bao Buns

I've been coming here for a while and the food is always delicious — super fresh, full of flavour, and consistently great quality. The Chicken Katsu has been a favourite of mine for ages, and one of the reasons I loved it so much was the generous portion sizes.

Lately, I’ve noticed there seems to be a bit less chicken than there used to be, which is a shame since those big portions were part of what made the meal so satisfying and great value. Still, it’s one of the tastiest spots around, and I’ll definitely keep coming back — just hoping the portions go back to how they used to be!

Amazing Japanese Dishes, so many choices for both veg and non veg. I've only had the veg dishes and I can say that each one was so tasty and would highly recommend their Bai buns, gayozas, sushi...list is endless. Definitely worth a try if you haven't and looking for quality food. You get free snacks while you wait for your collection. Great customer service...amazing chefs.

Amazing customer service, everyone is so lovely and accommodating and smiley - especially since we came in close to closing time! Lovely broad vegetarian/vegan options and very clean! The whole place looks modern - there’s a reason why this place is so busy! Can’t wait to come back!

Honestly our absolute favourite takeaway! It needs 10 stars. The Chicken Karrage buns are too good. The staff are so lovely and friendly. We are so sad to move away from the area for a while, and will definitely be stopping by whenever we pass south Woodford.
Thanks for all the amazing food! James & Darcey

Best Sushi/Japanese in the area by a million miles and I've tried the main 3 on a number of occasions. This place tastes the best but is also somehow the cheapest. Go figure. On certain days you have to wait an hour to get your food, so I recommend ordering ahead of time on the phone or online. There are queues outside on busy days for a reason. Highly recommended.

We don't sell any alcohol or pork. Everything is Halal.
