KOKORO — Restaurant in Nuremberg

Really bad experience with the staff. We arrived at the restaurant and asked if it was possible to eat without a reservation, since we were visiting Nürnberg for that day. We were told to wait (no approximate time) and did so without any issue. After ~30 minutes we asked one of the hostesses regarding how many people were also waiting in line, to have a better idea about when we would be able to sit down. We asked in a polite way, not meaning to pressure anyone. The hostess proceeded to be rude and unpleasant - completely unprofessional, telling us to stop asking questions or leave. We decided to leave and to go to another sushi restaurant nearby. There, staff was super friendly, even under a lot of stress from orders and deliveries. A very bad experience in such a lovely city. We will definitely come back to Nürnberg, but never to...

♥ KOKORO ♥ – Japanese restaurant.

A real hidden gem! I highly recommend visiting if you’re on a trip to Nürnberg. I often come here for lunch, they serve rice, soup, and torikatsu (fried chicken). I’d also suggest trying a glass of wine with Sake Lachs or a beer with Yaki Udon. Of course Sushi are the best, but I just personally ate too much of them.

Just one tip: check their opening hours before you go, they’re closed between 14:30 - 17:00, and evenings have a lot of people, so it’s best to call ahead for a...

I am very spoiled and demanding when it comes to Japanese food - gastronomy in general- so I won’t get into details on the food at Korkoro (not bad though). However, I must highlight the friendliness of the service and above all the ability to turn an “ouch” into a “wow”. Many restaurants and indeed many professionals can take a lesson here. During my visit today the waitress accidentally hit my head (with a pretty hard surface). Her apology was heartfelt, honest and with readiness to help (offered to call a doctor). I immediately was offered a free beer and after I ordered my meal, a manager announce that it was in the house! That’s how easy it is to go from an “ouch” to a “wow”! Take note restaurateurs and professionals...
