    Outside of Japan, and in Jackson, this is my favorite Japanese style restaurant. They're always busy at dinner so, go early or wait. The service is always on point. They have a great, fresh sushi menu. I was delighted the last time I went in to see a bottle of sweet potato shōchū on their bar shelf!

    Pretty good little sushi joint. Sat at the sushi bar. For appetizers we got the seaweed salad and the cucumber salad with crab. Didn't really like that they put soy sauce in my cucumber salad. I usually like it tangy with the Japanese vinegar instead. I won't be getting that again. But the four rolls I had were pretty good. The service was also pretty good for a busy Friday night. Seemed like they had a lot of regulars that sat at the bar. Total price for my dinner was about $55. Very affordable given the amount of food that I ordered.

    Amazing fast and polite service! Fresh and unique sushi rolls. Welcoming, clean and fun environment. The location is small but the food and service combined offer one of the best sushi dining experiences in Jackson, MS! If you love sushi and traditional Japanese food, you MUST try this place!

    Very above average sushi and udon for the Jackson, MS area. Come for the food - not the decor - wouldn't make it a date spot - wouldn't propose to a GF here - great lunch place - great takeaway - loved the mango roll.

    This sushi was absolute perfection! The taste, temperature, and attention to detail on each plate was fantastic! I had the Cherry Blossom and the Krispy Kreme Roll. Many celebrities have been there and when you taste the food at this nice little dive you'll see why! I will definitely make my way back here every time I'm in Jackson! The place was pretty packed but it was also Ash Wednesday.

    Sakura Bana nee Little Tokyo 1, you will always be in our hearts for letting us bring 20+ people in for our Thanksgiving celebration. I think we've been doing it for about 10 years now!

    I no longer live in Jackson, but after visiting recently I have decided to help out the Yelp scene there. To start, I'll review one of the places I used to love going to. Sakura Bana (formally Little Tokyo) has always been a great spot for sushi. If you are trying to find hibachi/teppanyaki, then you will need to head over to Little Tokyo II on County Line Rd. This place here has their sights set on sushi! Now on to the food. For years, the sushi here has been consistent. They are not stingy with their slices of fish, the sushi rice is seasoned nicely, and the rolls always taste fresh. I am a bit of a purist when it comes to sushi, so I can't speak for any fried, saucy, or super modern rolls. My favorite item here is the salmon box sushi. I have been eating sushi in Atlanta for some time and I have yet to find a sushi roll that is quite as appealing. It has a great balance of salmon, avocado, and lemon. A must try if you are a fan of those ingredients. You also can't go wrong with your standard nigiri. Based on my somewhat fleeting memories, I never had any issues with service. So, all in all, this is a great place to stop by if you are in the mood for nice, clean sushi.

    We have been Little Tokyo/Sakura Bana customers for years. They have some great sushi and dinners.Tonight we ordered take out and were told to come in 30 minutes. Got there in 30, waited another 30 even though the restaurant only had about 8 tables. The food is good, but we are not impressed with the take out service. It used to be pretty good but there were 5 of us waiting over an hour for our orders tonight. Just be aware.

    I was very surprised how authentic the Japanese cuisine was at this clean, medium-sized restaurant. The dishes were very fresh and tasty. Easy to find, this place will impress due to great wait service and a good-sized menu. I can verify that the tempura vegetables, sushi rolls, udon noodles, and shrimp dishes are way yummy.

    Working in Jackson for 3 weeks and was tired of hanging at the hotel. Been on a diet (sort of) so have been eating lots of sandwiches in my room. Was searching YELP for something good to eat. Found some positive reviews on this site and decided to give it a try. Also, wanted to avoid the usual chain restaurants. Found the place rather easily. A small, but busy place. Very nice interior. I was seated quickly. My waitress took my drink order and I set about the task of reading the menu for something tasty. I am used to sushi joints having written descriptions of the ingredients of their rolls, this place had none. Just names of rolls on the menu, no clue as to what was in them. I asked the waitress about menu descriptions, she offered some photos. Not helpful! I settled on a tuna sashimi appetizer. (Not as good as the one I order at Taste of Tokyo in Destrehan, La), but not bad. My "Rainbow Roll" arrived, stuffed full of cucumber. I HATE CUCUMBER! I had specifically asked the waitress if there were crunchy veggies in this roll, no mention of it. Not a fan of crunchy veggies. I told the waitress about this when she refilled my drink. Her response, "oh yeah, forgot about that one" and walked away. Not the reaction I hoped for. Instead of fighting with her, I picked at the dish and ate the tuna, salmon, and crab. Disappointing meal. Might give this place another chance. Jackson is severely lacking in quality restaurants. Guess I will be making sandwiches for several weeks.

    EXCELLENT !! Best Sushi !! In Jackson !!! My family has enjoyed sushi for many years....this is their favorite place in the US ! If you are anything like me...a "Germ-a-Phob" patron of any restaurant...sigh...my fault... THIS Restaurant is CLEAN and has excellent staff ! Very knowledgeable and helpful. I am "new" to sushi, however, I LOVE this place. The fish is fresh !! Fresh !! Fresh !! My favorite Sushi is the Volcano Roll, the Crunchy Shrimp Roll.... BUT, I am always drawn to the Salmon Steak. I have eaten salmon for my entire life...and "Roger" the chef in the back of Sakura Bana ... is undoubtedly knows his stuff. The skin is crispy, like it was perfectly cooked "bacon"...it melts in your mouth ! the salmon is fresh and perfectly prepared. The owner makes all of his own condiments...and sauces... they are wonderful and fresh !! The ginger salad dressing is amazing, too ! THE MOST AMAZING appetizer they have...is the Chicken Neigma .... It is bite size chicken breast wrapped around mozzarella cheese and a tiny piece of asparagus ! Pan cooked, then topped with homemade Teriyaki Sauce !!! Our family cannot get enough of these ! So yummy ! They look like "sushi" rolls...but are amazing. You will enjoy the service, the food, the freshness of ingredients and the cleanliness ! Cannot wait to go back. [our family ALWAYS goes there for our family birthdays...] Worth the cost for FRESH ingredients and PRIME ingredients ! YUMMY !

    OK so I'm a little obsessed.... My whole experience at Sakura Bana was ruined because of a phone call I had made 4 hours prior to arriving... I called in at about 3pm to check about what their prices were and what menu items they had different from their sister restaurant Little Tokyo (2)... A man answered the phone and I told him why I was calling... I told him I was trying to decide between the two restaurants and he told me that Sakura Bana was better and cheaper. I asked the man if they had Chawan-mushi or dobin-mushi... Actually I asked him a couple of times. "Are you sure you have chawan-mushi?" "Oh yes, we have chawan-mushi" "Really, are you sure you have it?" "We have Chawan-mushi".... Fast forward 4 hours... At the restaurant... I have my niece with me who's never in town and has never had chawan-mushi. I was all excited for bringing her to one of the only sushi bars I've been to in the south so far that has it... I order it and- "Oh no, we don't have chawan-mushi". "Sure you do... Chawan-mushi." I say like the Japanese waitress doesn't understand what's coming out of my mouth... "You know, the soup custard, Chawan-mushi?" "No, sorry, we don't have chawan-mushi. Little Tokyo does" I sit there for a moment getting even more upset. I told the lady I drove all the way over there just because someone told me that they had chawan-mushi there. She told me it wasn't them I called, it was Little Tokyo. I pulled out my phone as evidence. "That's not your phone number?" I say to to the lady as she squints to try to make out the tiny little digits on the screen. Anyway to make our confrontation short she finally admitted that I called them but the guy didn't understand what I said... Not that he told me that they had it so I would come to their restaurant instead of the other... I didn't throw a fit but I'm sure the woman next to me was thinking "What the hell is this bitch's problem, freaking out, making a scene because she can't get some mushy thing here..." We decided to stay because I was really hungry. We ate. I was stewing in my own frustration. I couldn't enjoy anything because I was still mad. The food was better than many sushi bars I've found around here. They had exceptional sashimi and chirashi. The hamachi-kama was possibly the best I've had. The service was also pretty good. The only bad thing I have to say (besides the chawan-mushi incident) is that they didn't really have a broad range of rolls -or- didn't have other appetizers I would have expected such as green mussels (which I am also equally obsessed with). However, this is pretty much a traditional SUSHI bar (and they are actually Japanese here). It is what you would expect. Ugh. Just go and eat there. It's good. They would have gotten another star if I wasn't so bitchy so just do it. You'll probably really like it. I'm going to Little Tokyo II.

    There aren't a lot of choices for "exotic" foods in Jackson and Little Tokyo is pretty damn exotic by Jacksonian standards. It has the standard variety of sushi, sashimi and tempura dishes and also Sapporo and Kirin. This is a great starting point for those unfamiliar with Japanese food, and who are looking to broaden their palette beyond their usual selections.
