Kyoku Sushi

"The uni and scallops we had were absolutely gross. The smell of some alum preservative and the bitter taste is just hard to swallow. The service was also below average. Our server looked sad the entire evening. Perhaps the only good thing about this place is the pretty plates and fancy presentation. Overall experience 3/10"

"The restaurant's elegant decor impresses , complemented by attentive service. The artful presentation and the fresh, delightful sushi stand out, marrying traditional and innovative flavors beautifully. Moreover, the pricing is fair, making for an excellent dining experience that promises both quality and value. Highly recommended."

"Try it while they are relatively new and affordable… We went early thinking this place was going to be the typical case of the new Japanese in town hyped and packed… also, to take advantage of the happy hour. As a former Asia resident and total freak of Japan and their cuisine, I must say they did a good job here. Place was surprisingly empty, staff were friendly and food was fair. Well presented, good quality and fair price. I can see (and hope for them) this place becoming so popular that one day prices are off the charts and it’s impossible to get a reservation here. Meanwhile, I will come back while crowds are not invading them and eating here is still relatively reasonable for what you get. So yeah, 5 stars for an overall great Japanese experience and we will definitely be back!!"

"Kyoku Sushi This place was excellent quality paired with equally excellent presentation and service. We started with wakame which was perfectly balanced with sesame oil, followed by hotate, a Hokkaido scallop which nearly melted upon my anxiously awaiting tongue, this is what Catholic Holy Communion should bee, perhaps then I would believe;) Shortly thereafter, our sashimi arrived only to compliment the hotate’s borderline religious experience. It was presented in a misty fog of dry ice with beautifully sliced, appropriately sized pieces, of very high quality fish. The hamachi and otoro were standout, typical of my taste buds. For dessert we enjoyed sea butter, magical uni, alongside some of the best ikura I have ever tasted, I think it was marinated in some sort of soy, both of these were served nigiri style, simple and perfect in every way. To finish we shared A5 wagyu, stone seared table-side, what a way to walk away from such a memorable meal… Thank you Kyoku:) Cheers."

"A little more in-line with your upscale sushi spots - definitely no Juno but a nice step up from your weekday spot. And Kyoku has a reasonably priced Omakase experience. We ordered a la carte, but did try the sake flight. Everything was fresh & delicious. The service was great and the place was as inviting as it has been for the last 3 concepts - very little has been changed to the interior since it was a steak joint."
