“ From start to finish everything was superb! My favorite was the Saruka roll, it was yummy as it was pretty. And our server Bailey was by far one of the sweetest we’ve ever had. Will admit the parking was limited, but that’s the only thing I can really say to a negative effect. Would definitely recommend trying them out. ”

“ Some of the best sushi I've ever had. I usually make an attempt to stop by and at least get a to go order when in the area ”
“ THE very best sushi restaurant in all of Hattiesburg and its surrounding areas! When you’re inside, it feels like you’re in Japan. They happen to have my favorite sushi roll anywhere: The Hawaiian Roll. I haven’t had a roll from there that I didn’t like, so far. Usually I get my favorite plus one extra roll that I haven’t tried yet. Their squid salad is very tasty as well. The staff is very nice and very attentive. Lastly, their bento box meals are a pretty sweet option as well. Try one of those out when you get the chance! ”
“ I have been here several times over the years. Anytime I come to Hattiesburg, I have to have Sakura’s Hawaii role. This restaurant has a hole-in-the-wall college-town atmosphere. This is a fun spot to go to with friends. The soft drinks have been a little on the flat side but the sushi is great. I’ve never had a bad sushi roll but my absolute favorite is the Hawaii role. The Holly role is a close second. ”
“ This is the oldest, longest-running Japanese restaurant in town. They have the expertise and experience that you would not normally find in a small southern city. The food is high quality and menu is highly creative to satisfy the American Southern pallette while still keeping to traditional Japanese-American style. ”
