" I had a fantastic experience at Kokolo Donburi! The flavors reminded me of my time in Japan, especially the unagi don—absolutely delicious! The atmosphere was relaxed, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a shopping trip. Highly recommend trying their mixed tempura; it's a great appetizer to share. The service was attentive and friendly, and the portions were more than enough for me. I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe I found such an authentic place in the heart of Livermore! Kokolo Donburi serves generous portions that are bursting with flavor! Their unagi don was cooked just right, and the atmosphere is cozy. The service was excellent, making the experience even better. If you're looking for a special meal, I highly suggest stopping by.

" Disappointed with my visit to Kokolo Donburi. The rice in the oyako don was too dry, and I felt like the flavor was lacking. The service was okay, but it took longer than expected to get our food. I sensed this place has potential, but they need to work out a few kinks before I consider coming back. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for improvements on my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" We stopped by Kokolo Donburi on a whim, and what a delightful surprise! I ordered katsu curry and my friend had the stir-fried udon. Both dishes were generous portions and really tasty. The staff was friendly, constantly checking to ensure we had what we needed. The decor adds to the casual vibe, perfect for quick lunches. I will be recommending it to others for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kokolo Donburi has become my go-to place for Japanese food! The unagi don is out of this world and the portions are more than adequate. I was amazed at how quickly the food came out—kudos to the kitchen staff. The friendly service makes it feel like you're part of a community. I can't wait to bring my family next time for a big feast! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Kokolo Donburi, but it didn't quite meet my expectations. The oyako don had good flavor but was too heavy on the rice; it overwhelmed the chicken and egg. The service was decent, but I felt like we waited a bit long for our food during peak hours. While I appreciate their effort, I hope they can refine the dish for better balance in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Kokolo Donburi left a lot to be desired. The pork katsu lacked seasoning, and while the portion sizes were big, flavor should not be compromised. The service was good; staff were attentive, but I expected better quality food based on all the positive reviews. Hoping they can work on improving their dishes. " (*Curated Review*)
