Tempura Asakusa SAKURA

What an amazing hidden gem! We were so fortunate that my husband researched to find this quaint restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was exceptional. It is a small restaurant with fantastic ambiance! Would highly recommend and thoroughly enjoyed our experience there. Th...e tempura dishes were done to perfection.

We did the omakase and it was very filling! A nice variety of food. The chef is lovely and shared info as the meal progressed.

Visited after a busy day exploring the area, the experience was great and staff very accommodating explaining the various options and courses for one of the set options. The food was amazing and watching the chefs prepare the food and then cook the tempura added to the overall experience. Thank you

As a person with Celiac, this is an amazing place to find in the middle of Tokyo. I got the seafood and vegetable tempura bowl and loved it. But everything everyone else got looked amazing as well. They are also a halal establishment and could provide a vegan meal very easily. Loved it and would def...initely go back.

We had been hearing about the amazing tempura in Tokyo and had yet to be bowled over until we found Sakura. Located on the 7th floor of a nondescript building, you enter an intimate room with seating for 10 around a sushi-bar style counter. The chefs create a true work of art on a platter made up of... tempura fish and vegetables and Wagyu beef. The tempura is light and not greasy at all. Reservations are a must as they turned away several wishful thinkers while we ate. Dining is limited to one hour which is plenty of time. English is spoken. The only negative to this experience was in finding the place. It is part of the pedestrian walkway in the heart of Asakusa, but on a side street and the name of the restaurant is not immediately clear.
