Sakura

""Make sure your socks don't have holes in them because if you're lucky, you'll be sitting shoeless in traditional Japanese style, on the floor. It's impossible not to relax with your shoes off, and at this small, unpretentious Japanese restaurant on bustling Wickenden Street, you'll fell right at home. Servers don't hover, but are happy to offer help if you're having difficulty deciding between say, the spicy tekka (tuna) maki and the spicy lobster maki. We recommend ordering both, and then some—the sushi here is flavorful and fresh, and if you're so inclined, you can dine at the sushi bar and watch the chefs at work. Prices for maki (sushi rolls), nigiri (raw fish on rice), and sashimi (raw fish without rice) range from $2.75 to $5.50. The entrées are equally good. We love the Kobe Sanshoyaki, tender cubes of beef sautéed with Japanese black pepper, for $10.25."
