Kura Revolving Sushi Bar — Restaurant in Salt Lake City

Kura Revolving Sushi Bar – Sugar House First time at a conveyor belt sushi spot and I’ve gotta say… what a ride. 🍣🤖

This was my first visit to Kura in the Sugar House area, and honestly, I’ve always wanted to try one of those revolving sushi bars you see in movies and TV. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with robot servers zipping around delivering drinks and wasabi while blasting fun music—it’s cute, quirky, and feels like dinner and a show.

Ordering is a little confusing at first (especially if you’re a first-timer like me), but once you scan the QR code at your table and get the hang of the phone menu, it’s super easy. The staff were incredibly helpful—kind, patient, and ready to jump in if you needed anything.

Here’s how it works: • You can grab sushi from the lower belt as it passes by • OR you can order from your phone or the screen above the table, and your items come flying in on the upper belt like sushi rockets 🚄 • Every plate you eat gets slid into a slot at your table that keeps count—kind of like feeding the table sushi tokens

We tried a mix of things: • Rainbow Roll (a bit heavy on the crab salad—more wet than I’d prefer) • Salmon Roll • Soft Shell Crab Tempura (heavy on the tempura, light on the crab) • Dumplings (surprisingly tasty—one of our favs!) • A grilled octopus roll that I didn’t realize was grilled (my bad) but ended up really liking • A few hand rolls (these were the least favorite—seaweed was tough and chewy)

So here’s the honest truth: the sushi itself isn’t the best in town. There are definitely other spots in SLC that are stronger if you’re in it for a the sushi. But the experience here? 10/10.

It’s fun, high-energy, and just different. Think of it as dinner with an interactive twist—screens talking, robots rolling, belts spinning. It’s a little bit sensory overload, but in a fun way. Would I bring out-of-town friends or go again for something casual and entertaining? Absolutely. Would I come here for a romantic sushi date night? Probably not.

Average price for two of us was around $54. We ordered a decent amount and left full (the plates look small but add up fast). We didn’t make it to dessert—we were too stuffed—but we’ll be back with friends just for the vibe.

Definitely worth checking out at least once—especially if you want sushi with a side of...

Mixed Experience at a Conveyor Belt Sushi Spot — Great when it’s Fresh, but a Bumpier Second Visit

I’ve been to this conveyor belt sushi restaurant twice in one week and gave it four stars overall. The first visit was enjoyable, with fresh-tasting options and quick service. However, my second visit ended on a disappointing note.

What happened: After finishing one plate, I started feeling unwell in my gut. It raised concerns about the freshness or handling of the food. When another plate looked suspect enough to replace, I asked for a swap. The waiter asked why, and it was clear the fish was discolored (a dark, almost black tint). Despite exchanging the plate, the replacement still showed the same issue. I ultimately had to reject the plate and leave, which was frustrating given how much I wanted to enjoy the meal.

What I hope for moving forward: Please maintain strict quality control to ensure all sushi is fresh and clearly presented as safe to eat. Consistency is key: I’d love to return and have another positive experience, knowing the seafood is fresh and prepared properly. Ongoing attention to food safety and handling would help this restaurant continue to grow and earn loyal patrons.

On balance: I appreciate the variety and the quick, casual vibe of a conveyor belt sushi spot. I’m hopeful the management will address the freshness and quality issues so the restaurant can keep delivering enjoyable experiences for diners.

If the kitchen can ensure consistent freshness and better communication about plate quality, I’d be eager to revisit and raise my...

Went there for a party of 7 for my daughter’s birthday as per her requests. Seen some TikTok n iG videos of the place popping up, good reviews, and looks to be cool spot to try. Got there at 6:10pm on a Saturday, and got on the reservation list. We waited until 7:40 😰 until they had seatings for 4 and 3 next to each other. Don’t bother coming if you have a party of higher than 4 people. This place doesn’t have the seating capacity for bigger parties. Unless you want to be spread out in different sections.

The atmosphere was nice and cool. Waiter/Waitress robot was cool site to see. We was seated 6th or 7th booth on the conveyor belt way. We’d see the tray on the other side and looks great to grab, but by time it got to our seat section it was already taken. Most time we ordered it on the above touch screen. My Adult and teenage kids was hungry for waiting hour and half. So one table ate 34 plates, and my table next to them ate 37 plates. At almost $4 a small plate it added up. Ended up spending about $400 for all 7 of us. Came to about $58/person for my tables.

Waiters were great and they did their job well, but this dimsum style sushi plate is a little expensive for the portions. Plate presentation was good, and flavor and choices was good. Sushi was freshly made as it was being consumed every rotation. I wouldn’t call this high end sushi, but it was ok/good. This place is a great conversation and FB/iG/tiktok posts, but probably wouldn’t go there again on an...
