“ The Service was great, and the sushi was amazing! Loved it and would come back any time ”
“ For the prices that they charge you get a good amount of food. In the fridges they sell sushi which you can get a lot for a reasonable price, and other style Asian food in the fridge. They also do hot food here which was what I had and I loved it! Eat in and take out options here as well as a toilet for public use. Clean, tidy with hand sanitizer for you to use. The food here tastes delicious and the staff are nice. Would definitely recommend coming here to eat and will be back here again! ”

“ This is one of the best Kokoro restaurants I've ever been to. The prices are really good and the portions are big. The only thing that I think they could work on is the atmosphere. ”
“ The food here is amazing. The service is buffet style, and staff fill the tubs generously. I struggled to finish a large sweet and spicy chicken with rice. My wife's Chicken gyoza udon was also very good. There are sides available too, including sushi and dumplings etc. For eating in, there weren't many tables inside, so seating may be an issue during busy times and the queue does pass some of the tables which isn't ideal for personal space, but from a food perspective this place is bang on. ”
“ Went with my mum and sisters and the food was delicious and the portions are good as well would definitely go again ”
“ Kokoro has become one of my go-to lunch spots for its consistently great food and welcoming atmosphere. Their sushi is always fresh and flavorful, and the katsu dishes are perfectly crispy and satisfying. It’s the kind of place that’s easy to keep coming back to—affordable, quick service, and reliably delicious every time. Highly recommend for a hassle-free, enjoyable meal! ”
