👍👍 A very Japanese experience... better yet - Japan experience. They've been using the conveyor belt method for eons very successfully and its about time we're getting them stateside! Cool look, feel and flavor - didn't have a plate we didst like... just a couple we didn't like as much as others! Highl...

    A very Japanese experience... better yet - Japan experience. They've been using the conveyor belt method for eons very successfully and its about time we're getting them stateside! Cool look, feel and flavor - didn't have a plate we didst like... just a couple we didn't like as much as others! Highly recommended - sat at counter top; however would've preferred the table space better. Staff is helpful, but the robot brings you your drinks! He's sneaky too... watch he doesn't scare you when suddenly showing up behind you! You receive and pay by plates - each plate will cost you $3.75 (unless it states otherwise). You receive a bonus 'toy' for every 15 plates you re-deposit. Hard to explain; but you'll get it when you go. Very highly recommended.

    We went the second day it opened. I was worried about the wait time and took the advice of another reviewer to use their app. It worked out wonderfully. It was an 1.5 wait and by the time we got there, the host seated us right away. The food was lovely and plenty for us to pick from. When it got busier, Mr. Fresh, the pods, where getting empty. It was a wonderful experience. The staff was nice and attentive. Cant wait to go back soon.

    This place is amazing first off. I live walking distance and just moved to the area so figured Id give this place a try and it did not disappoint. I’ll give a rundown on what to expect: If you go at a busy time there will be a wait, I went Saturday night and wait said 60-75 mins but you leave your number and get a text to check in (and was more like 45 mins at most) when you get seated you can basically start right away. The plates pop out easily and you just put them in a plate slot when done (how they know what to charge based on number of plates) the atmosphere was nice and they had a Jujutsu Kaisen collab which was cool too so after getting a certain number of plates you get a collectible in a dispenser that pops out. Now onto the food: I dont know where some of the hate comes from but the food is on point. They have various options from seared beef to shrimp to raw options aswell. Plates were roughly $3.75 each which isnt bad considering you basically just pay for what you eat. Only downside I can say is the rice falls apart pretty easy on most rolls but flavor wise I enjoyed it especially seared dishes like the seared scallops or seared salmon with japanese mayo. Overall my gf and I spent about $102 combined before tip for 22 plates, a Sapporo and a small sake which really wasnt bad and we left full. There were spurts where the conveyor was mostly empty but hey people are human and expecting there to ALWAYS be dishes available on a busy night is stupid, the chefs do a great job when they can and if theres something you want that isnt on the conveyor you can just order it direct from the touchscreen. Overall will definitely come back here with friends and family because this place is great. Oh and honestly didn’t like the conch it had a more firm consistency I wouldnt recommend. Favorites Id say are the wagyu, seared scallops, fried rock shrimp, and seared salmon. They also have seasonal dishes and hot food I didnt get to try but theres always next time.

    A great place for some casual sushi and other Japanese food. The revolving belt of delectable dishes adds a playful twist, making every bite an adventure. Freshness is the name of the game here, from classic nigiri to inventive rolls. The touchscreen at each table lets you customize your sushi experience. It's like having a personal sushi chef at your fingertips. The blend of conveyor belt charm and made-to-order excellence sets Kura apart. The ambiance is vibrant, perfect for a laid-back yet exciting sushi affair. The staff is always smiling, ensuring your sushi journey is as delightful as the rolls themselves. A sushi paradise where innovation meets tradition flawlessly. An absolute must-visit for sushi enthusiasts and anyone craving a fun, flavorful dining experience.

    Their advertising won me over.... was scrolling on twitter when I saw that this new sushi restaurant was opening, and I HAD to try it! Conveyor Belt Sushi?! It's about TIME this came to the US! I was pleasantly surprised, at how good it was! The sushi was delicious, and the menu options, and belt allow you to try multiple different things at once! It felt like I was stepping into the future! The restaurant was clean, I could pick off anything I wanted from the conveyor belt..... Was a great experience! I'll definitely be going again!

    We visited at prime lunch hour (12pm noon) on Labor Day. It was a 30 min wait which was not bad for a holiday. We were notified via text when our table was ready and we were seated quickly. The table wasn't thoroughly wiped down and there were prior diner's food/grease marks on the table. The sushi was good and ordering was easy on the tablet above the table. Sushi on the conveyor belt was insufficient... The ones we were waiting for were always empty, so we ended up ordering ramen to supplement. Ramen broth was delicious but the ramen itself was shortened/cut and I personally didn't like that aspect of it.

    Great new experience! This was a very enjoyable place to eat. All of the food was delicious and the conveyor belt is great. Can't wait to have my kids try this place out.

    So I have been here 3 times now; all for lunch. Getting a table has always been quick, probably because it is lunch and I was solo. The food itself is good. The quality of all the nigiri I have tried (and I have tried them all here) is top notch. The only drawback is that the slice of fish or meat on top is very thin. It really does seem like 2 slices from here is equivalent to 1 slice at other places. That being said … Kura does offer variety which other places don’t. They use yuzu, and ponzu, and more to enhance the sushi experience. Other places just serve straight nigiri and rolls. Kura does have variety other places don’t. But that is not what most people are here for. They are here for the gimmick. The gimmick which is done really really well. The whole revolving sushi thing is great. It is nice to see food going around and people can take things they may otherwise not just by the look of it. Also one major note. Even though I was seated fast there were still people in the restaurant. More than enough. Even when a certain roll or nigiri went by, when the same plates went around again a plate would be gone. Which is great for turnover. You don’t have to worry about something being out for too long. Even if the place isn’t packed. You of course could order exclusively on the tablet for your party. That was my initial plane. However just seeing something you want going by. This sense of wonder comes over you and you take it off the belt. One negative. The table wasn’t spotless. It wasn’t filthy by any means, but there were streaks on the tables. I only sat at a table 1 time each time I went I usually sat at the counter which I prefer and was always spotless. 1 place where Kura shines beyond the gimmick is their limited menu. I have only tried 2 of their limited menu’s but both were outstanding and unique. I will go back just to try the next limited menu.
