  • Abandoned Sakura Japanese Steakhouse - Warren, OH. Closed and rotting away, this hibatchi style restaurant was rather a nice place on the inside. Good reviews with some bad ones but overall seemed like a good place for dinner. They even had a fish tank inside.

    Barbed wire was probably to protect the units on the building from getting the copper stripped from them. My only guess.

    • @dsly4425
      @dsly4425 4 года назад

      The restaurant inside was run down when I ate there in 2010/2011 ish. The food was decent but it looked like they were struggling with renovations. Because it was pretty significantly remodeled between becoming Sakura and it’s previous incarnations as a Chinese buffet and an Asian bistro. (Which I suspect was the same buffet rebadged after the health department shut them down once).

    Wally I was just thinking that one possible reason that barbed wire might be on the roof could be to deter Scrappers from messing with the 8C units up there because that would be a good bit of aluminum and copper with the condensing coils that's probably why that's up there Seth anybody tried to climb up the wall to get up there to scrap that get of course cut
