" Definitely worth the hype! Each sushi roll was packed with flavor, and the fresh sashimi was delightful. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. I only wish it wasn't so crowded on weekends. I’d recommend making a reservation! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing time at Kamakura! The atmosphere was vibrant yet calming, a perfect spot for a casual dining experience. The fusion rolls were interesting, although not very traditional. The service staff was excellent, making our visit memorable. I'd recommend the spicy tuna roll! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place offers really generous portions; I felt like I got a lot of value for my money, especially with the sushi rolls. They do tend to be on the larger side, and while I enjoyed the flavors, they could be less filling. The service was polite, if a little slow at times. " (*Curated Review*)

" The sushi rolls here are gigantic! I was really impressed by the generous portions. However, I felt that the flavors could use a bit more refinement. The service was good, and the ambiance was nice, but I think there are better sushi spots out there. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Kamakura and was blown away by the sushi! The fish was incredibly fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. The service was quick and friendly, and I appreciated the cozy atmosphere. I would definitely come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sushi was fresh, but the service left much to be desired. We waited a long time for refills, and it was hard to catch the server’s eye. I enjoyed my meal but felt overlooked at times. " (*Curated Review*)
