“My son and I stopped by Kokoro for lunch, and we really enjoyed our meals. We started with the gyoza, which was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. I ordered the teriyaki salmon box with salmon sashimi. The salad was fresh and light, and the salmon was a good portion for a lunch special. It was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. My son ordered two rolls, including the fried California roll, and honestly, that ended up being my favourite! It was so tasty and had the perfect mix of flavors. Our waitress, Monica, was great. She was sweet, kind, and attentive. We had great food, great and fast service, and a really enjoyable lunch with my son. We would definitely return and recommend it.“

“Hidden little jem! Come here a lot and always make sure to get the Spicy Chirashi, the appetizer Mussels. Only place you'll find this delicious spicy chirashi and I've eaten all across this peninsula. They have so many rolls, you'll definitely find something delicious here.“

“service was good, sushi has good flavor but is 1/3 what you get at other places. maybe 1/8th of a roll from Arigoto. For the same price. Up side is great service and never busy when I have been there. very good for last minute large groups.“

“First off I want to say the food was amazing this is my first time I'm just a passer and I have to say if I pass through here again I will definitely stop by again fresh fish taste is definitely my favorite. The only thing I would complain well is not complain it's more for safety reasons is child working there i definitely didn't seem like a family business I have nothing against kid's helping but for a restaurant like that it's not ethical my nerves where at edge that he would drop something or cause and accident kid's should stay kid's and honestly it doesn't look professional for a restaurant that seems like it has high demands it's just for safety reasons it dies seem concerning but the food was amazing 👏“

“I had the fried tempura plate, which came with a nice combination of shrimp tempura and fried vegetables. The tempura was golden, crispy, and flaky with every bite, and the vegetables were well-balanced and not overly fried.
The soup that accompanied the meal was delightful, light and not over-seasoned. The rice was fresh and well prepared. Overall, I really enjoyed the food, the welcoming atmosphere, and the excellent, friendly staff.
For anyone who enjoys sushi or Japanese cuisine, this is definitely a place worth visiting. I enjoyed what I had , If your a sushi fan Drop by just off of 101 in Prune Plaza“
