Sarku Japan operates almost entirely inside mall food courts, so its hours — including on Thanksgiving and Christmas — follow the host mall's own schedule, which typically means closed on both days.
A Food Court Concept, Not a Standalone Restaurant
With more than 170 US locations, nearly all inside shopping mall food courts, Sarku Japan's hours are tied directly to when the mall itself is open. Mall food court vendors like Sarku Japan typically close whenever the mall closes for a holiday, including Thanksgiving and Christmas.
