Sakura Japanese Express, Alsip

The sushi chefs at Sakura Japanese Express craft creative sushi rolls all while hibachi experts at the grill dice together proteins, veggies and fried rice. The restaurant's broad menu covers everything from sushi lunch specials—a light workday break—to filling dinner platters for carry out or delivery. Other Sakura Japanese Express specials include:

• The Spiderman roll: Among Sakura's creative sushi specials is this roll that highlights the superhero's signature color, red. Filled with spicy salmon, crab tempura, cream cheese, mango, cucumber, and avocado.
• Hibachi on-demand: Customers looking for flame-cooked foods instead of sushi can check out Sakura's hibachi specials, where chefs grill up proteins like shrimp, teriyaki beef, lobster and scallops and pair them with hibachi fried rice and stir-fried veggies.
• Sweet heart roll: Guests should finish off their dish with a little something lovely, like Sakura's heart-shaped sushi roll. Each bite of tuna, lobster, mango and avocado is held together with a delicate soybean wrap, and topped with spicy chili sauce for a hot finish.
