Sakura - Indianapolis

Sakura is perhaps one of the best authentic sushi places in this duck city Indianapolis. We came here on Monday and in contrast to what Anthony Bourdain's advice (never left Monday for weekend) Sakura's Koch Special Cuts (Omakasai) sashimi were absolutely freshest also in this Midwest town. Customer service was also very attentive at this packed Monday night. Very recommended

I've been coming to Sakura for years, and I have no clue why I never put in a good word. Sakura is about as high quality and fair priced as you're going to get in the Indy region. I wouldn't bother trying any of the boutique places downtown or on Mass Ave you'll be disappointed compared to here. Ex Hot tea is $1.50. They will bring you refills. So many other places want to charge $3 for a cup. It is one of those things overcharging for makes little sense They have all of the traditional Japanese menu items you want...from a simple box to a donburi. The uni they get here is really really fresh unreal for the Midwest. Make sure to let it sit in your mouth for a few seconds and THEN take a sip of water! The miso is always on point. Seaweed salad is fresh. And all of the basic rolls taste great. Avoid the more complicated rolls. Stick to the hamachi and saba.

The lady who brings you to your table and hands you the menu is just lovely. The service is great also. The people at the sushi bar are doing a great job making those rolls. It was my first time today dining in and the sushi was amazing! Very fresh and has excellent flavors. I really recommend this place!

Hands down best sushi I've ever had. The chef was amazing. The service was polite and prompt. I really enjoyed my experience.

The sushi is average but the seafood udon soup is very tasty and the staff are friendly
