The Unique Kansas Restaurant That Delivers Your Food By Train

Sakura Sushi Train in Kansas offers a unique dining experience where sushi is delivered by miniature trains.

Have you ever had your food delivered by train before? You might have tried Fritz's Railroad Restaurant in the past, but what options do you have when you want something a little fancier? This sushi place in northeast Kansas isn't just your average sit-down restaurant, because they have a counter where you're served by miniature train instead. Let's check it out!

Welcome to another food adventure, Sakura Sushi Train!

I suppose it really is a chew-chew train now, right?

All jokes aside, the menu at Sakura is full of flavor, varying in size from small plates carried by the train, to larger dishes full of options.

If you're here to eat a lot of sushi, then you've picked the right place. However, they have other options that don't involve raw seafood, but they won't be riding the train.

Sit alongside friends and strangers and enjoy the sushi train as it brings food around the table.

I can't imagine if this were a bar instead of a sushi restaurant.

The train itself isn't too fancy, but watching the trains pull the food brings a sense of childhood wonder to your dinner experience.

Dinner can't ever be too serious if a train is carrying sushi around the table. Chew-chew!
