Kokoro Japanese Restaurant

Very very ordinary. Food look good but that was it. The highlight was the hot green tea. Everything was dry and lacking in flavour and curiously, the cold items were actually warm (refrigeration problems?). The sushi was tired and old, the Salmon and Prawns on the Sushi was dry, the beef udon was just boiled meat with overcooked noodles. None of us finished our meals, staff made no enquiries as to why. Very disappointing, we will not be back.

Korean Japanese Restaurant on the main street in concord. After looking at the photos posted on their website, I was looking forward to reading her. Arrived and was seated inside promptly. Ordered the Wagyu Beef Meal set (with rice and salad), The medium sized inside out California roll (8 pcs), the tempura prawns with rice (don), and 3 hot green teas. The waiter said he would bring a large pot of tea to make things easier. We agreed. I asked if I could order their signature lion king roll, but asked if I could get fresh salmon instead of the cooked tuna. The waiter walked off before I could even finish and said it might cost more. He came back and said No, so we didn't order the lion king roll. He brought out the pot of tea and we stayed pouring it into our cups. The pot of tea was only filled half way and wasn't enough to fill all 3x cups. We called over another waitress and asked her to refill the pot for us and that we would like it filled all the way. We mentioned to the waiter that we were sharing our food and so he brings out one small empty plate (for a table of 4!) Shortly after, the California rolls arrived. The taste was dissapointing. Note that there was no fish in it (other than the crab stick and roe) but it tastes like the seafood was definitely been out for a few days. The wagyu meal came out next. The meat was OK and well marinated. The quality of wagyu was poor and marbelling was non existent. The tempura prawns was perhaps the best dish out of the 3. The prawns were not fresh, but the batter was thin and crisp. Overall, it was rather disappointing and I don't recommend this place.

We had a really poor dining experience here. Chicken karaage - overcooked, teeny tiny, and did not taste good. It looked more like chicken nuggets. Chicken katsu curry - it's really hard to mess up curry but this was just bad. Pork katsu meal - it tasted like pre-made katsu from the supermarket. Also, I had to ask for sauce. Presentation was just really sad. And service was not very good. We asked for spoons and was given only one.
