New Sheffield Asian fusion restaurant opens this July, Sakura

Sheffield’s New Era Square moves up a gear this week with the opening of a brand new restaurant, Sakura in Panenka.

Sakura promises the finest Asian fusion menu served in the most stylish and intimate of settings.

The 50-cover Sakura restaurant has been opened as the newest addition to the £1.7M Panenka Bar & Grill in Sheffield which was unveiled in December last year.

The popularity of the venue’s existing Asian fusion bar food persuaded the management to add a dedicated restaurant that expands and builds on its most popular dishes.
