Nice little store, friendly staff who efficiently checked us out. We will be back for more!

Finally had the chance to check out Sakura! It did not disappoint. Had a little bit of everything really for a small convenience store. I picked up a spam musubi, several onigiri, instant ramen, snacks and ice cream pints. I was thrilled to see Yuzu sherbet as I love Yuzu anything! There was a decent selection of frozen items. I was please to see that they carry kizami wasabi. That's my favorite to eat with sashimi/nigiri. They also carry utensils like chopsticks, musubi makers, etc. If you miss Hawaii, they have li hing mui snacks, tropical flavors of pancake mix, macadamia nut chocolates, and insulated bags with the cutest designs like the ones that they sell in Hawaii. The employees are kind and friendly. I was on my lunch break so I didn't really get to take my time and explore but I'm definitely coming back again!

Cute store that has all the Japanese snacks, foods and drinks you need! They also have some freshly made sushi rolls and onigiri which is good on the go. Service is friendly and the place is very clean with reasonable prices

Nice Japanese store with all your needs for Japanese home and cooking. Great friendly and helpful customer service. Whenever I'm in Stockton I go to Sakura.

Sakura Market packs a lot of unique goods in a very small place. I can always find what I'm looking for, although they're not always able to stock the alternate flavor KitKat's that I like. When I'm cooking Japanese meals, they've got the ingredients I need: miso paste, bonito flakes, okonomyaki sauce, etc. They also have delicious futomaki and other items prepared. The staff is friendly and helpful, and all of the customers are smiling.

Came here before many times but finally have time to give this place a review it deserves. Sakura feels like you're in a Japanese market, which is pretty awesome and something we need more in California. In general, the female cashiers there are friendly and welcoming. They always great us. The shop is kept clean and organized. They have so many things you just can't find in a regular market or gas station. Their Ramen selection has authentic japanese style ramen. They have freshly made onigiri and other japanese style lunches made daily. They usually completely sell out before 2 pm, so we go there before then. Their sashimi cuts are perfect for when we make our own sushi at home. You know the seafood is good when you can just bite into it right of the bat . The music they play is nice and relaxing. Overall, this place is a 5 stars for me, and I highly recommend it for japanese culture lovers.

I come here all the time for their onigiri, sushi grade salmon and hamachi & their matcha. Everything is super cheap and high quality. I look forward to coming here each time I make the drive from Lodi.

Cute little Japanese market next to UoP! The market has a lot of things from snacks to rice to ready to eat food! Parking was easy as there is a lot that is within the plaza. It can get a bit busy thought and the spots are tight. The staff in the market was very nice, friendly, absolutely welcoming!

Small Mom and Pop shop located in a little plaza right next to another Mom and Pop bakery (MW Dutch) that I love getting my cakes from. They carry your typical Japanese food items and small household goods. They also carry Hawaiian goods like the li hing mui which was my fave childhood snack. They can be a bit pricey since some of the items you can't find in your big box stores, but I really can't complain since I love getting my stuff here. I also love getting their ready made foods that are always freshly prepared everyday at 10am. It also a plus that they are budget friendly so I can get as much as my stomach desires. I frequent this store since I am just minutes drive from here. They are very helpful and friendly that's why it's so welcoming every time I'm here. Definitely one of my fave stores to shop at and will keep coming back to.

Sakura is a small Japanese grocery market in the same plaza as Poppy Coffee and right next door to Tiger's Yogurt. My husband and I shopped at this market twice over our recent visit to Stockton. Upon the first visit, we came in on a Wednesday a little after 5 pm. Sadly there was very little freshly made cut sushi rolls available. I saw a sign on the counter that states to go foods and sushi are made daily from 10 am- 2 pm, Monday through Friday and then 9 am -1pm, Saturday. Knowing this information, I told my husband we will have to try again but earlier in the day. We ended up coming the next day, around 11:45 am. There were so many choices of freshly made food items to choose from (which is why it is very important to come early). We purchased spam musubi ($2.79), butter mochi cake ($6.99), onigiri saka mayo (riced ball with cooked salmon and mayonnaise, $1.99), tiny lucky cat ($2.99 prior to tax. My husband bought this thinking I would find it to be cute, which I do, lol). The spam musubi and onigiri were perfect snacks to have on hand during our trip and the butter mochi cake was just so delicious. It reminded me of the mochi cake mix I bought from Trader Joe's that I made. This market also sells other items you would except to find in a Japanese market, that include sashimi, sodas, sauces, instant noodle/ ramen, chips, Pocky, rice, sake, Sanrio toys/ stuffed animals/ tote bags, etc. Employees are very friendly and helpful. Sakura is a hidden gem that you would not expect to find in the town of Stockton. Come check this out this small market, but come early if you want to purchase their premade food items.
