"This used to be our favourite place to eat. The best buns ever, wonderful ingredients, so well prepared and beautiful every time. However we ordered through Uber eats recently and it was almost inedible, so much sauce in the buns it was a disaster. We couldn't taste any of the fillings (soft shell crab chicken) they were swamped in sauce and quite badly seasoned. Something must have changed, the lady who used to run Sakura was impeccable and the food was always perfect. Our last experience was so far from this it feels like there’s no way it’s the same team. Such a shame as it was in our top places to eat."

"Couldn’t fault the service and decor but the food was very poor. Meal 1 Fish chips and mushy peas. The highlight of the meal was the chips. The fish in ‘beer batter’ the batter wasn’t crisp and because the batter was so thick there was a slimy layer of uncooked batter between the outer cocked batter and the fish. Mushy peas, they weren’t mushy more like crushed frozen peas. Both the fish and the peas were over seasoned and way too salty. Meal 2 roast chicken, the chicken had an unpleasant layer of yellow oil which also oozed out of the meat. Meal 3 roast beef the beef was rare and ok for our liking, however the rareness theme was carried over to the veg, the cabbage was raw. I am struggling to understand how three very simple meals can be produced so badly."

"What an amazing restaurant. My sister and I visited on a trip from Devon as a birthday treat. The menu was extensive but we were given plenty of time to choose. All our food was really delicious. We were asked how spicy we liked our food and both our dishes were perfect. All the staff were friendly and polite and the whole place was spotless. We sat near a family who told us they were regulars as the food is so good and they treated us to a delicious paper dosa to try as we’d not had them before. It was a really enjoyable evening and I’d highly recommend this lovely restaurant."

"If only I’d seen the owners reply to a bad review they got under their google reviews! Shockingly rude! A table was booked for 7.30pm tonight to celebrate an 18th Birthday, we pulled up it was closed! To see the look on these 4 girls faces, SHAME ON YOU!! Called no answer, finally answered by a rude man saying we open at 8! BS!!! You open at 6, no? As per your website? AVOID this place after the way they let down these young girls tonight, no sorry nothing! Thankfully Turquise in Loughton fitted them in at the last minute......ps. Now abuse me, be rude and call me a liar like you did the other bad review!!! NO STARS"

"We three gluttoneers invaded this delightful eatery to celebrate my wife 's, Angela 's birthday last Tuesday night, and it was better than great. We were welcomed into an inviting ambience of romantic lighting, light tiles and coloured walls, and shown to our favourite window table. Amidst the polite murmer of chat and laughter from diners already there, and the lovely background music, accompanied with a perfectly concocted Aperol Spritz and a Pornstar Martini, we made our selection from a varied menu, especially when you include their specials ' board. James, the proprietor extraodinaire, and the others made us feel right at home with the banter and laughter great. We soon made our selection. All three of us went for the Mango al Granchio; Nino 's do the best this side of Essex. There followed Involini Pescatrice, Saltimbocca Romana. and Linguini Gamberoni; all were faultlessly prepared and presented, and the flavour was astounding. This culinary perfection was baptised with a chilled Prosecco, and it truly woke your palate up. We then concluded this gastronomic extravaganza with a shared Apple Pie and ice cream with a surprise candle and team Nino 's singing 'Happy Birthday ' with their quirky horn wonderful. We finished off with a lemon tea, black Americano, Cappuccino, and black Sambucas plus complimentary ones from our gracious hosts grazie mille! Yet again, Nino 's have raised the benchmark in cuisine excellence, friendship, and laughter. Our compliments to the chefs in the 'hot room ' for their artistry and kind attention, and a huge 'thank you ' to all at Nino 's for an uplifting dining and birthday experience. Until the next time, keep smiling and be happy, ciao."
