I really enjoy this restaurant! They've now changed their takeout and dining prices to be the same, but the food is still delicious and satisfying. I visited with a friend, and we found the prices to be very affordable with generous portions. We left feeling completely full. It's a great place to eat with friends or family. The hospitality is warm, and the restaurant is clean. You definitely should come and try it!

Cherry Blossom offers a diverse menu featuring Chinese, Malaysian, Thai, Balinese, and Japanese cuisine. I was initially worried that such a wide range might lead to an identity crisis, and that the restaurant wouldn't excel in any particular area. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised. The food was fresh, made with high-quality ingredients, and bursting with delightful flavors. My husband and I enjoyed everything so much that we found ourselves playfully competing for dishes! The only suggestion I have for improvement is to offer spicier options. I love my food hot, so having the ability to customize the spice level would be great. At least I know for next time!

Very much enjoyed the Cherry Blossom, the staff were great with the kids, but about 20% overpriced I'm afraid.

The staff is excellent, the atmosphere is family-friendly, and the gluten-free menu is outstanding. We will definitely be returning regularly! The kids enjoyed their meals just as much as we did. Our dishes arrived quickly and were absolutely delicious.
