How have I not yet reviewed Sakura? I started going here out of convenience – it’s literally around the corner from my current place of work, and one of the only lunch spots actually open when I have my regular 4pm lunch break. I kept going here because of the delicious fresh sushi and the adorable staff. I often don’t have time for a noodle dish but the one ramen bowl I have had was delicious(once it had cooled down a bit; I’m a sook). There’s no extra charge for soy sauce or even Japanese mayo if you’re dining in, and there’s always a seat(well, there is when I go in around 4pm, anyway). Quick and easy lunch option six days a week, quick and easy review.

Great value on noodle dishes. My Singapore Noodle dish was great. However, I’m no expert on authenticity of the dishes which cover many different types. Sushi was OK and typical of Aussie sushi rolls.

Sakura is a great little spot in the CBD for all sorts of asian cuisine delights. The sushi is fresh and flavoursome, with the benefit of having a chef available to make anything you’re after if they’ve ran out of it in the display case. The noodles, rice and soup dishes are also very generous servings at very reasonable prices.

Sakura is one of my go-to locations for Japanese take-away in Hobart. They are cheap, have a varied menu(rice dishes, noodle dishes, soups, sushi), are fast and the food is good.

Another asian cafeteria-style eatery with the kitchen on full view so you know it’s fresh. A good place for lunch or early dinner right in the heart of Hobart. Be warned they close at 9pm but sushi is all you can eat for AU$ 15 after 5pm. Lunchtime this place is very busy with office workers and it can be hard to get a table. It’s worth waiting though — the servings are very generous and average about AU$ 12 per meal. Good value! Service is not wonderful but the guy who makes the sushi is really friendly and it’s very good!
