" This was my first time at Kamakura, and I truly enjoyed it. The atmosphere was inviting, and the staff was super nice. The sushi was well-prepared and tasted great, though slightly different from what I'm used to in Japan. Still, I appreciated the experience. Will recommend to friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just visited for the first time and it was pretty good. The sushi rolls were gigantic, but the flavors weren't quite what I'd hoped for. The staff were friendly, but I found the ambiance a bit too noisy for my taste. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the sushi was fine, I found it to be a bit overpriced for the quality. The ambiance is nice, but it was quite crowded, and the service was slower than I would have liked. I might return, but with lower expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a remarkable hidden gem! I didn't have high expectations walking in, but Kamakura completely exceeded them. The sashimi was fresh, and the standout dish for me was the seared scallop nigiri. The service was attentive, and I loved the outdoor seating. I will be back soon! " (*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*)
