Sakura sur Lorient

I visited last summer in July at the tail end of a very long trip. I hadn't eaten for 12 hours and I wanted just one thing before going home: Good Japanese food. The Sakura auspiciously shares its name with two of my closest friends, so I went and decided to try a little bit of everything they had to offer, which ended up being two of their menu options: a sampler of yakitori skewers and some karaage, both of which came with its own serving of rice and veggies. All of that topped with a nice cold mug of Asahi. It was so good, and I needed it so much, I genuinely teared up while eating. Yeah, really! Believe it or don't! I came in outside of rush hour so I was the only one in the restaurant at the time. I can't say if this restaurant is any loud or packed full of people at the usual times, but in a way, I hope it does. That said, the quiet did make the atmosphere excellent. Calm and relaxing, just how I like it. The staff was very kind and professional, and I was more than happy to leave a tip, it was worth it. 有難うございます！また戻ってくるよ！！

Excellent welcome. Very good and generous meal.

The service was warm and gracious, the food - fabulous. The quality price and ambiance make this one our new ‘go to’ places. There are lots of lunch options under €15.00 but we went all out on our bento with wine so our bill was more than the norm.
