Blue Sakura Leeds

We came for our son’s 21st birthday and had a great time! It was our first visit, but won’t be the last. We ordered drinks at the bar before being taken to our table. Then the waiting staff showed us a tablet to order our food/drinks from. There were so many items to choose from, but sashimi wasn’t available on the lunchtime menu. We proceeded to choose our dishes and the food came pretty quickly! They were fresh and hot. The sushi dishes were nicely presented. You get to choose a limited number of dishes, then wait for these to arrive. Then you can choose again. The ordering closes half an hour before your table is up. We had 1.5 hours of eating time. The ambience was nice with good background music. We would definitely return again!

Amazing food Would recommend to anyone who likes to try different food. Even if you don’t like fish or rice there are so many different dishes to try. Including chicken, noodles, traditional dishes and so much more. For those who like sushi and sashimi dishes this is the place to try Small portions to try as much as you like or reorder as you go through the menu ! Everything is ordered through an interactive tablet and the cocktails are definitely worth a try !

First time trying Blue Sakura in Leeds — my daughters have been raving about this place, so I had to give it a go! First impressions: I was instantly impressed with the modern interior, perfectly in line with current design trends. Even though it’s an all-you-can-eat buffet, you simply order from the tablet and the dishes are brought fresh to your table. Our favourites were the salmon sushi rolls, noodles, lamb chops, and prawn tempura. The black bean beef curry is also a must-try! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re up north.

With family for a birthday treat. New experience for me... Thoroughly enjoyed it... Awesome food. Attentive service making it an enjoyable experience.... Can't wait to go back!

We have been keen to try this place for a while after hearing good feedback. Due to the price point and as a family of 6 we saved it for a "special occasion" visit so when it was suggested for my daughter's 16th birthday it's where we headed today. Honestly the decor is beautiful and the service was attentive and all the staff helpful and friendly. Loved the smart ordering concept on the tablet and the small plate servings allowing you a chance to try a range of dishes. Service was fast, the dishes arrived quickly after ordering. However we felt the food quality was poor. We had expected this to be higher end restaurant quality. It was not! We had 40 dishes during our lunch sitting between the 6 of us. So sampled a wide range of offerings on the menu. The rice texture and consistency in the sushi wasn't the best the rice was quite dry in many pieces. Poorly assembled and fell apart when we picked them up. It didn't taste very fresh and there are much better sushi restaurants in Leeds. I would go so far as saying you could buy better pre-made in the supermarket for a fraction of the price. The Chinese style dishes were also disappointing, really cheap tasting and textured meat. Teriyaki chicken skewers were barely edible, we had ordered 2 portions of these for our table of 6 and left them all. Think of the cheapest frozen party food. Not at all what you expect for the leading price point you pay to dine here. My favourite dish was the teriyaki mushrooms. Glad to have visited and ticked it off the list but based on the food quality we certainly won't visit again. It is just the poorest quality all you can eat buffet wrapped up in a wonderfully smart efficient ordering style. Bill cost for 6 adults lunch , 5 soft drinks & 1 cocktail £236
