Short Orders (Sakura Japan)
Sakura Japan Brings Sushi to Waukesha
At
this rate, downtown Waukesha could become a dining destination. First
came the Clarke Hotel, whose Black Trumpet brings fine, if very pricey,
dining to this community. Less than a block away is another new
establishment of note, Sakura Japan (332 W. Broadway). The site’s old
commercial building has been renovated with a cozy sushi bar that seats
eight and great Japanese decor, including abstract compositions of dark
wood that add a nice edge. The menu is more than adequate for a
restaurant of this size. Sushi is the focus, and even the humble
California roll comes in a novel, crunchy version. You will find it in
the bento box lunches, which include a salad. The menu also offers a
Korean dish, boolgogi, which are grilled marinated strips of beef.
Korean food and sushi make a good pairing at this winning Waukesha
location.
