Reviews
To be honest all the time take same dish and drink- don’t know about the other dishes - salmon is highly recommended!
We visited this restaurant spontaneously during the week. I usually go to the Kuchi location in Charlottenburg and have always been a big fan. In general, I expect a similar experience across all Kuchi restaurants, and the food here certainly lived up to those expectations. All of the dishes we ordered were fresh, tasty, and well prepared. However, this visit was not entirely without issues. I was served a different Maki menu than the one I had ordered. When I pointed this out, I made it clear that I was still happy to eat it and wasn't looking for a replacement. Unfortunately, the interaction that followed felt a bit unfriendly, as if my comment had been taken personally. To the restaurant's credit, the situation was later clarified, and an apology was offered. I appreciated that the misunderstanding was addressed professionally in the end. Overall, despite this minor issue, I enjoyed the food and left satisfied. The quality of the dishes remains very good, and I would still return in the future.
Used to be one of my favorite sushi places. I recently ordered delivery and the salmon was poorly cut, had a very chewy white skin.
It’s really Asian fusion with a focus on Japanese cuisine. We came for Valentine’s Day lunch and service was okay. Ordered a variety of sushi & sashimi and nigiri. Standout item: spicy tuna. Would recommend this dish Worst item: salmon aburi which was a special item. The salmon was not flambéed at all and tasted like it was steamed or something which is not what it is suppose to be. All in all it was just okay. Would come just for the spicy tuna.
Overrated & do not recommend ! Food was average: Ordered tea that arrived lukewarm, dim sum were not handmade, edamame was too salty and cold, sushi was mostly bland - nothing special. Service: Talked to a variety of waitresses. One was kind and attentive, while the other two were simply rude. Don’t bother asking questions because they don’t have the time nor the desire to help you. Overall experience was simply bad and do not recommend this place for any foodie and person that values professionalism.
