First time here. It was my first time at this spot and it was pretty good. I had the sushi lunch that consisted of salmon, red tuna, white tuna, octopus, crab, and shrimp rolls. I ordered the Cajun roll as well. Service was ok due to a miscommunication of what I asked for and what was really ordered. I would come back
Best Sushi in Hattiesburg. I have lived in Hattiesburg for 19 years, but had never been to Sakura until about a year ago. I will confess that previously I had never been a huge fan of sushi or sashimi, I didn’t dislike, but I never had a craving for sushi. Maybe I just pretended liked it because it was something relatively new to the South for most of my early years. Recently, while back in town for a few weeks between semesters at UM, my girlfriend and I were more or less forced into coming here by a friend, a friend to whom I now owe a thank you note. The food has been outstanding every single time. The soups taste fresh and homemade, a perfect combination of flavors that are perfect for beginning the meal. The sushi menu is extensive, and they have many options that are unfamiliar to the typical Southerner, but the staff is knowledgeable and eager to guide you through the menu. My favorite is the sushi dinner, the salmon roe is powerfully flavorful and mouth-filling but not overwhelming. The white fish is simple and fresh, an excellent way to begin your foray into raw fish. The yellow tail is my personal favorite, but the entire selection is outstanding. The tempura is also a favorite, especially since they incorporate some uncommon vegetables such as Japanese pumpkin (they have a small garden out back). A bit pricey, but well worth it. Give it a try.
The BEST baked salmon roll I have ever had! I don’t go anywhere else this is the place!!!
User reviews. I travel from Houston, tx to eat at their sushi. Baked Salmon roll is my absolute favorite!
Saint roll. Try the new saint roll which is fried oysters avacado and crab topped with sp. mayo. u can’t go wrong
Still our favorite. Took in a late lunch with the wife at Sakura. We had not been in a long time and I am not even sure why…but we made up for it today. Sakura was the first Japanese restaurant in Hattiesburg and it’s still one of the best. The sushi and sashimi rolls are always fresh and well prepared. The tempura is consistent and done well. I’ve never had a disappointing meal at Sukura and from what we had today, it’s as good as ever.
Ate their for lunch on a weekday. Not very impressed, mediocre at best compared to other sushi places in town. Menu for lunch was not adjustable in any way for me to add to or take away. Waiter seemed to be in a hurry to do other things than serve me. The California roll was tiny compared to most I’ve had and the sashimi was 90% rice….. Their are better places to eat sushi in hattiesburg honestly.
