• Indian • Raynes Park

Sai serves authentic Punjabi cuisine with tandoor cooking a speciality. The spice range is broad, from minimal to high levels and vegetables forming the backbone of the menu. Wheat is the staple food of Punjabis; however, they do enjoy eating rice at festivals and other special occasions. When it comes to food, each region within Punjab has an entirely different preference, for example, people in Amritsar are particularly fond of stuffed parathas and milk products. The philosophy of life for many Punjabis is to eat, drink and make merry. They are lively people who are extremely fond of eating good food. In the preparation of Punjabi food, onion, ginger and garlic are used extensively to enhance the taste of the food.**NEW***SUNDAY BRUNCH 11am to 3pm, try Indian street food from different part of India with unlimited KADAK CHAI.****LUNCH****Now open for lunch Tuesday-Saturday 12-3pm.

Sakura Yakiniku is proud to be the first Japanese restaurant that provides an authentic smokeless barbecue restaurant by Hampton Court, Surrey, just a short walk from the historic Hampton Court Palace. The most unique feature of YAKINIKU is that the meat will come to you RAW! You get to grill it all by yourself. We have a selection of traditional and complementary dishes to suit all including imported Japanese top grade WAGYU beef, British premium steak beef, chicken, pork, seafood, and a selection of vegetables, with our special home-made sauce.We only want the best, so our grills are imported all the way from Japan. The best part of this is that with their unique cutting-edge technology alongside the down draft vent system, the smoke is sucked under the table and away from our guests so the grill is smokeless. This minimises the smokiness associated with similar grills allowing you to enjoy your dining experience at Sakura Yakiniku.

As usual absolutely superb. Faultless. Yes the food might on paper appear pricey, but it isn't it's sublime. I go to Buenasado about 2-3 times a year, it's a treat for whomever I'm taking and myself. Steak made to perfection some cracking Argentine beers. Bravo Buenasado.

We were a party of 11. We all had an enjoyable evening. We were in the restaurant for over 3 hours. Not rushed by the staff who were attentive to our requirements. And we all enjoyed the cuisine. Thank you.

A great little find. We had a booth which was cozy and relaxed. The service was chilled and friendly. We were in no rush but the food came out in good time. We had bento boxes, extremely happy with the quality of food. Would have been a little disappointed if we sat in the main area as it’s busy and bit open to the delivery men. But it’s a small place so don’t be put off by that if you want great food at a good price.
