Raku is a cozy Japanese restaurant that serves delicious and authentic dishes. Their warm soup and udon noodles are a hit, especially with the addition of crispy fried shrimp. The restaurant offers great delivery options, including rolls without rice, which are rarely done well. The menu features a wide variety of rolls, with some favorites like MJ, Crazy Dragon, Sakura, Rainbow, and California. Each roll offers a different flavor experience, from the fever dream of flavors in the Crazy Dragon to the elegance of the Sakura and the colorful Rainbow. The restaurant also serves edamame, miso soup, and offers a beer to complement the meal, making it perfect for a satisfying dining experience. The atmosphere is charming and comfortable, with wooden decor and kind, patient waiters who treat guests with warmth and respect. The staff’s friendly service makes visitors feel special. Overall, Raku is a hidden gem in Turtle Bay, known for consistent quality, great portions, and food that always fills cravings. It’s a place where food feels like art, and happiness can be found wrapped in rice and seaweed.
