delish food

i am new to chennai, and i've been trying to find good east asian or pan asian restaurants for a while now. i went excited to try this place and this still went beyond expectations. we had wanted a light dinner meal so ordered the chicken nanban, buta skewers, buta belly, annin tofu, shiratama zenzai. the skewers were a tad bit overcooked but merely by a few seconds and i'd have liked it a bit rarer. however, it was an absolutely lip smacking experience. their wasabi is the best i've had on many years. the desserts were brilliant. their service was extremely world class and i feel it is completely worth the money. i will be going again to try out everything on their menu. thank you for the experience and keep up the good work, team kuuraku!! ^.^

i bought this dish mainly for the pork.that portion was very small . and over all quality was terrible. honestly i feel cheated for the price i paid

you have to try it atleast once in ur life. best experience. staff were so nice and the food was impeccable

i always wanted to try japanese cuisine but was a bit doubtful whether i would like it or not and i went to the restaurant yesterday...i loved it. i order the kuuraku ramen ...it has strong garlic and ginger flavour but the overall taste was amazing. very filling. had ebi tempura and chicken skewers with sauce for starters. the tempura was a bit greasy and heavy..but the chicken skewers was hella good. tokyo katsu curry was a 9/10 ...again the katsu was a bit oily. had tiramisu for dessert ....def a 10/10

was here for dinner on a sunday, booked reservation through zomato pro for 4 members. booking was quick & modification of reservation was also easy. was pretty excited when we got seated because of the ambience & also the private dining area that we got. the menu was extensive & self explanatory with pictures (it was very helpful to make an independent choice as we didn't need anyone to help), but there was no one to take orders. after 20 mins of initial excitement we started looking out through the door so that any one could notice us,but our attempts were unsuccessful.

i had to go out to the reception to remind them that we were waiting, a person dressed in kimono appeared (yeah authencity!) we quickly ordered teppan gyoza, chicken nanban, crunchy ebi roll( sushi), kawari dane kushi course ( we initially ordered tori kushi course but the staff advised us that, it consisted of the not so usual parts of chicken like heart, gizzard, tail etc so we safely avoided it)

another good 20 mins passed by, gyoza arrived tasted good with the soy sauce and garlic sauce they served, but that wasn't enough. we started to have the garlic sauce & soy sauce since the other three starters took some more time. upon reminding, all the three arrived together. all the starters were good, while having the starters we ordered the main course.

for main course we ordered, katsu curry with rice and 2x half portions of kuuraku ramen. again nothing to complain. desserts were below average, we ordered baked cheesecake & something caled shiratama zenzai, vanilla ice cream in a thin rice wrapper. could have avoided it but no avail.

to spoil the ambience, there was a youtube channel which was conducting an interview. the person was too loud, even though they were seated in a room which were two rooms away from us. mood killer for all.

overall, the experience of japanese cuisine was good. the bill was around 5k , with zomato pro we paid rs 4k (20% pro offer, good offer!). only disappointment was ,very very slow service. i would really like to know whether this is how japanese cuisine actually works?! we arrived by 8pm and left by 10pm, eventhough the restaurant wasn't crowded at all.

rating : 5 of 5
never had a thought at this area, will have best japanese restaurant, and until you land at this place, it will be like a very good price, the way greet, talk to you, serve and suggest the food you may like.
one of the best experiences any one can have in the most authentic style of japanese culture and serving.
surely, will drop in again and again.

clear and sharp taste in all the items we tried. had ordered broiled pork belly, stuffed egg roll, prawn tempura, assorted yakitori, spicy pork ramen, a dessert whose name i can't remember now & cocktails. yakitori was a first time experience and it hit the right notes for us. service was very nice and timely. we thank mr. mondal for the proper recommendation about the cocktails and the little game made those even better. it was our once a month date night venue and we couldn't be happier 😊😊

amazing place to dine. the restaurant was a proper japanese restaurant with authentic japanese cuisine. food was very good. drinks were as well. the ambience and setting made you feel like you were dining in japan. the customer service was very friendly and the staff and crew were native japanese. i would definitely recommend this place. definitely worth the price. only thing missing was sake to enrich the experience.

ofcourse the restaurant is expensive but the fact they gave nice juicy chicken and fresh pork with all tasty food is like nothing i had in chennai other than five star hotels. i loved it

amazing food and amazing hospitality. had a wonderful time with friends. one of the best japanese restaurants in chennai. a must visit place if you wanna enjoy a good japanese cuisine and culture.

wonderful breakfast enjoyed a lot it was amazing hoo

i usually order from kuuraku and it is very good, but today i feel it was bit stale , didn't have the freshness it usually has. i hope this was a one time occurrence occurrence dosent happen again.

absolutely loved my experience! every single item had a unique taste profile. it was super fresh, super light and extremely tasty on the palette! the staff was also well aware of all the dishes and served the dishes with such a pleasant disposition! absolutely recommended!
