Sushi restaurant in Christchurch

“Absolutely loved this place! A cozy, family-run Japanese restaurant with amazing food and a welcoming atmosphere. The food was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The staff were kind and attentive, making us feel right at home. Perfect spot for anyone who appreciates Japanese cuisine and warm hospitality!”

“I ordered through Uber Eats and tried the takoyaki (octopus balls) and the gluten-free teriyaki chicken donburi. I was pleasantly surprised — everything arrived at the perfect temperature and tasted super fresh, from the tender meat to the crisp vegetables. The portions were generous, and the quality for the price is excellent. I was also really happy to see they offer several gluten-free options, which is a big plus. Definitely a great spot if you’re looking for fresh, flavorful food at a reasonable price.”

“We visited today as a family and ordered the Wagyu lunch set. The salad, kimchi, pickles, rice, and the tender, flavorful beef were absolutely delicious and melted in our mouths!!! The girls had so much fun grilling the meat themselves. We also tried the chicken karaage. it was big, crispy, and really tasty. We were so impressed by the kindness of the staff, especially the kind lady who served our table. Her attentive and friendly service made our meal even more memorable. Thank you!!!”

“Sakura is a real “cherry” treasure well hidden inside Asian Mall. When we first found it, we couldn’t believe our luck. Small , family run Japanese restaurant with amazing options of both vegan and not vegan food. Our favourites are Agedashi Tofu, veggie tempura and seaweed salad which is must try ! There are some choices of sushi including vegetarian but if you ask they make it vegan. Plenty of choice of Sake as well for connoisseur of that drink. Staff is always nice and friendly and very polite. Since tables are limited booking is recommended especially on weekends as place is always packed. Sakura is No. 1 Japanese restaurant in town without doubt!”

“Great food, very kind staff and price is ok.”

“The sushi rice was perfectly prepared, and the tonkatsu sushi was surprisingly delicious and remained delightfully crunchy despite being on display in the afternoon. Additionally, the discount offered after 3pm is a great deal. If only the wasabi and ginger could be freshly made from scratch, it would elevate the overall dining experience.”

“The food here was so delicious I had to come back twice during my stay in Christchurch. I ordered the Grill Beef on Rice, along with a Chicken Teriyaki Bun (50 cents of the sales of the buns goes to the Arts Centre). I left feeling nice and full. Give this place a visit if you're the mood for some good Asian food at a good price.”

“Great food and good vibes. Friendly staff and great service. Went at a busy time but staff were well prepared for the night. No unusual delay in service.”
