" I was not very impressed with my last meal at Kuka. Although sometimes the food can be outstanding, my last dish was bland and lackluster. The atmosphere was still enjoyable and the service rather friendly, but that doesn't overshadow my dissatisfaction with the food. I want to give it another chance since I’ve enjoyed meals before this visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Kuka has solid sushi! The rolls were fresh and well made, and I particularly enjoyed the variety on the menu. I felt it was a bit pricey when considering the portion sizes, but happy hour specials make it worthwhile. Overall, a great choice when you're in the mood for quality sushi! " (*Curated Review*)

" The udon was unexpectedly great! It had the perfect texture and flavor. I appreciated the generous portions, especially considering the price. The atmosphere is pleasant, making it easy to relax. However, the service was somewhat slow, impacting the experience slightly. The best part was the fresh ingredients that you can definitely taste. Will I return? Yes, for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kuka is definitely worth a visit for anyone craving authentic Japanese food. The sushi is top-notch, and the happy hour offers great deals. I particularly loved the variation within the menu, which makes each visit exciting. The service is typically good, although we had a wait one night. Nevertheless, I’ve left satisfied each time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kuka is decent but not my top choice for sushi. While the food was tasty, it doesn't quite reach the level of my favorite places. The yakitori could be improved as they came out a bit dry. The service was friendly, though, and the atmosphere was lively. I would recommend it if you are looking for something new, but know it may not be as amazing as it seems. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with my last visit. The food was not up to par, especially the yakitori. It was excessively charred, and lacked flavor. The service was friendly, which is always a plus, but that alone couldn't save the experience. I might return to give it another shot as I’ve had better meals in the past, but my latest visit was underwhelming. " (*Curated Review*)

" Kuka has become my go-to sushi restaurant! The sushi is incredibly fresh, and the rolls are unique and flavorful without being overly complicated. I particularly enjoyed the Cajun Pop roll; it’s a fun twist on traditional sushi that really works. The service is friendly and attentive, although it can get busy during peak hours. The laid-back atmosphere makes it an excellent spot to unwind with friends. I'm planning to bring my family next time to share the experience! " (*Curated Review*)
