Kura Revolving Sushi Bar — Restaurant in San Jose

Was looking for a revolving sushi place like in Japan and found Kura but it was almost the same. The inside of the restaurant looked and felt like the same in Japan, quality of the fish was pretty good for some of their sushi, and service was a little lacking unless you call them or press on the service button. Came on two Saturday lunch’s was only a 10 -20 min wait. They have a sign in tablet for wait list so you get a text message when ready.

Came with a friend and one day with my family. Make sure to sit in the middle of the restaurant when called. When we took our girls, we actually sat at the very end end table of the restaurant where the plates were received last and barely got to pick any good sushi we wanted unless ordered. We got unlucky when we came with my daughters. They do have a robot server which was cute.

You also only have less than an hour and a half seating time and 4 orders per order; not enough time for us when we sat at the back end table so we were not as full as we expected. It was so much better seated in middle tables; you get a better pick of sushi. The best sushi’s were the hand rolls, Sashimi and toro rolls. I did not like the garlic skip tuna; it was a little tough or the sweet shrimp nigiri or cooked rolls or nigiri’s. Not my faves. We didn’t try any of their ramens, cooked plates or dessert here. Why go to a revolving sushi bar for anything else?

You do get a prize I believe after 15 plates dripping in the dish slot; Just like the style of Japan restaurants. Price per place was not bad and there are four locations to close from in the Bay Area. I may come here again...

My visit to Kura Sushi was filled with anticipation, drawn from countless TV features and a long-standing desire to experience a slice of Japan without leaving town. The concept of a sushi place where orders are placed through an iPad and delivered on a rail directly to your table sounded like a futuristic dining adventure. We were promptly seated after a 15-minute wait, greeted by a friendly hostess who guided us to our table and explained the ordering process. The novelty of selecting dishes on an iPad and watching them zoom towards us on a conveyor belt was genuinely exciting. Even the water was served by a robot, which added a charming and cute touch to the experience.

However, the excitement quickly dimmed with the arrival of the food. The quality of the sushi was disappointing, falling short of even supermarket deli standards. After sampling 12 different dishes in hopes of finding something remarkable, we decided to stop ordering. The innovation and fun of the ordering process could not compensate for the lackluster food quality. While the experience was memorable for its unique delivery system and the novelty of the robot server, it’s unlikely we’ll return. The search for quality sushi continues, but the adventure at Kura Sushi serves as a reminder that innovation in service should go hand in hand with excellence in...

A very fancy restaurant using unique way to serve sushi 🍣. Their sushi is fairly good. For the guy who works in the restaurant, I would give him 4 stars, but the way this restaurant serve dishes by using revolving plates, I would say it's unfair to all the customers. I sit in the middle section of the restaurant, And it was not busy noon, I took a video and it's obvious most plates were empty ， think about it, on a busy day, if you sit at the end table of the revolving, could you get anything you really want? If you have a party of 3+, how could you get fair sushi to share? And since this service model, I have to find the server to give me hot tea refill, the hot tea cost $3.90 usually free in orher restaurants. Yes, I could make personal orders, then why I need to do this revolving things? Did I like their sushi? Yes, I'm fine with it. But didn't I enjoy the way, although it's fancy, but...
