Quick info
About Blue Sakura Leeds
On Merrion Way in Leeds, Blue Sakura is a Japanese restaurant built around an all-you-can-eat menu, with orders placed through tablets at the table. Salmon and shrimp nigiri sit alongside beef skewers on the selection, and dishes arrive on long white plates as each order is ready rather than together. Tap water isn't listed on the tablet but can be requested from the staff. A set deal runs at weekday lunchtimes for a lower-cost route through the same menu. The restaurant takes walk-ins, and tables can also be booked online in advance. Alongside the food, sake and cocktails round out the ordering system, keeping drinks on the same tablet format as the dishes.

“What a fantastic find here in Leeds. We had such a lovely experience trying out the various dishes, and everything was incredibly fresh. The presentation on the long white plates was beautiful, especially the vibrant salmon and the delicate shrimp nigiri. Every single bite was delicious and full of flavor. I cannot wait to come back and try more of the menu.”

“The food (our stomachs aren’t big enough to cover all of it on the menu haha) is delicious & mouth-watering, especially the beef skewers! All the staff are friendly & helpful with their service. …”

“Great food and service. Weekday lunchtime price is a good deal. Food comes out when it’s ready so always fresh. Dropped chopstick on the floor and they replaced them almost straight away. Tap water isn’t on the iPad only bottled but you can ask for tap and they don’t mind.”

“It's rare to find a Japanese all-you-can-eat restaurant in the UK, and this one is in Leeds. After making a reservation online, we arrived early on the day of the visit, and the staff quickly made arrangements for us. They use tablets for ordering, and the food comes out incredibly fast. The staff are friendly, and I highly recommend it.”
