For over 30 years we have strived to set the standard for Chinese food in London and we pride ourselves on building a reputation for exceptional food and service. The Good Earth reflects the journey Chinese food has taken in London. From traditional aromatic duck and dry shredded beef to contemporary dishes unique to us such as Golden Sands Dover Sole and Wasabi Prawns. We welcome families and children of all ages and have a great value set lunches.

East Molesey
About the restaurant
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.

I love the experience. My only problem is the volume of the music. It is very high and loud. We end up shoutingto hear each other. This downgrades the lovely place to a pub vibe. If music could be a bit on the low side, everything would be perfect
