" Kobo Gourmet is a hidden gem for anyone seeking authentic Japanese food. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal. I particularly enjoyed their beef sukiyaki; the flavors took me back to my travels in Japan. The only downside was the wait for our food, which was a bit longer than expected, but the quality made up for it. If you have a craving for genuine Japanese dishes, this is the place to go. " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent experience at Kobo Gourmet was a mix of highs and lows. While the sushi was fresh and delicious, I found the service a bit lacking as I had to wait longer than anticipated for my order. The place isn't loud, which is great for a peaceful meal, but a little more attention from the staff would have made my visit a five-star experience. Overall, good food, but they need to work on their service speed. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Kobo Gourmet brought back memories of my time in Japan. The onigiri was huge and freshly prepared, just like I remember! Their miso soup is truly the best I've had outside of Japan. I genuinely appreciate the authenticity and care that goes into their dishes. The restaurant has a simple yet charming setup, making it a lovely spot for a casual meal. I can't recommend this place enough if you're looking for quality Japanese cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having frequented many sushi places, I feel confident in saying Kobo Gourmet stands out for its authentic approach. The sushi is prepared with expert care, and the flavors are spot on. My only criticism would be the limited seating, as it's often busy during peak hours. However, for quality like this, it's worth the wait. If you're in Pickering, I highly recommend checking it out — you won’t be disappointed! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kobo Gourmet offers an authentic taste of Japan that truly exceeded my expectations. The miso soup warmed my soul, and the sushi was as fresh as can be. The prices are reasonable and service friendly, though a tad slow during busy hours. I could easily see myself becoming a regular here. It's a great spot for anyone wanting to experience real Japanese food in a cozy setting. Looking forward to trying more of their offerings next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to dine at Kobo Gourmet recently and I must say, it was an experience worth every penny. The sushi rolls are not just your average rolls; they're made with fresh, high-quality ingredients that make every bite a delight. The staff is incredibly friendly, which makes the experience even better. If you're a lover of Japanese cuisine, this is definitely a place you shouldn't miss! I'll be returning soon for sure.
