Sakura is a Japanese restaurant located at/in the train station of Basel. It is a very good (but not cheap) restaurant. I like to go there for special occasions, like celebrations, etc.
The restaurant is split in two. In one part, you can order dishes from the menu or have sushi. In the other section, the meal you choose is prepared and cooked right at your table. It’s a Japanese table grill.
It’s better to book ahead.
When there is Mass in Basel, you will not have the chance to get a table here - too many Japanese book months ahead (which speaks for the restaurant, I think).
