While waiting for my takeout, I tried a new appetizer, and it was absolutely delicious! The perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory flavors made it just right. As a sashimi lover, this is truly a blessing. I’m totally in love with this newly opened restaurant! Can’t wait to try more.

5 star meal! We had the crispy hoisin duck bao buns, kendo bites and sushi to start which were all amazing. The massaman curry honey chicken stir fry for mains were lovely also and massive portions. Nicest Asian style food we’ve had in years The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere with professional and friendly staff. We didn’t book the live hibachi table but it looked like a great experience! We will definitely be back so much on the menu we want to try and it’s very reasonably priced. Nice Saké also!

Absolutely fantastic meal in Kuro Waterford. The prawn gyozo and hoisin duck bao bun were incredible. The duck ramen was delicious and wholesome. The nigiri and sashimi platters were delicious. Great service and good atmosphere. Perhaps I would recommend adding some non-alcoholic prosecco/wine and add a few more non-alcoholic beers. Overall, highly recommended.
