Sakura Sunakku

"Sakura Sunakku in Chinatown Boston made a delicious crepe. I love the fruit crepe with pocky!! The crepe was freshly made with strawberries, bananas, blueberries, chocolate pocky, and bit more. I just love every bite. It's sweet treat!"

"This is our third visit and it never disappoints!! Large portions and the food is simply phenomenal. We got the spicy cha siu ramen, the chicken don, and the Sakura refreshing juice. All of it delicious! It is a small sitting area but they have a wrap around counter and a corner table that easily fits three people. Very friendly, courteous and speedy - definitely must try it!!"

"We went for desserts. Tried the shaved matcha ice, it wasn't good. It was bland and didn't like match at all. Super disappointed with the shaved ice. We ordered two ice cream crepes, those were amazing. We'll visit again, but we won't be ordering the shaved ice anymore."

"I’ll start with the restaurant, then talk about the food. First, a heads up: the chopsticks they use are rough wooden chopsticks you’d find in carry-out and disposable plastic bowls. If you’re like me, and the rough wooden chopsticks always chafe the side of your mouth, I recommend that you bring your own. As far as COVID-19 safety is concerned, there are plastic barriers separating you from the cashier, but no barriers between you and the other customers. Hand sanitizer is available by the cashier. The strength of the restaurant is the variety of food they serve: other than ramen and crepes, there also rice bowls. I ordered the Unagi (Eel) Ramen and the Chocolate Temptation Crepe. Unagi (Eel) Ramen ($14.00): The eel seemed fresh and was tender. However, I wasn’t really impressed with the broth or noodles. The flavor of the broth was really light and lacked richness, not at all like how I like my tonkotsu broth. The texture of the noodles was fine, but it tasted like store-bought noodles. As for price, I’d say $14.00 is reasonable: it’s comparable to other ramen prices, and there was a good amount of food. Chocolate Temptation Crepe ($7.95): I had never tried this kind of dessert before and so was really eager to do so. The textures worked well together. Since it was my first time eating this, I don’t really know how the price of the crepe compares to other crepes, but for the amount, I’d say that the price is reasonable. In conclusion, if you’re new to restaurant ramen or if you’re introducing someone to restaurant ramen, I wouldn’t recommend this place. There are other places with more flavorful ramen. However, if you’re looking to try something new, I would come here; I haven’t really seen unagi ramen, and was really excited to try this restaurant when I first heard about it. As for me, I would likely come back. I'd like to try the char siu ramen and see if the broth will be more flavorful, or may an unagi don (rice bowl). And of course, I need to try all flavors of crepes."
