I've been to Kura Revolving Sushi Bar years ago and have not gone back. There was always some wait time there. Now they have an app where you can reserve and head over to wait less in front of the restaurant
You can browse through a 15+ plus menu on the monitor in front of you and order. The lowest level of belt is free for all, but your placed orders on the monitor will be delivered to you on the 2nd level belt. It was fun to see the expression on kids faces as the food makes their way around the restaurant.
I ordered 1 appetitzer: garlic ponzu sashimi. I hardly tasted the ponzu or garlic, but the sashimi were descent, not fishy or slimy. I used a lot of wasabi and soy sauce to give it some taste.
The 2 beef plates I ordered were descent. The seared beef with Yakiniku sauce was dressed lightly with sesame oil and bbq sauce was not strong, the meat was seasoned and it had a nice charred taste. The Umami seared beef was pretty good, the flavor was light, but still seasoned and had a nice charred taste.
The spicy tuna meat on crispy rice was not spicy, crunchy, and tasty, just as I remembered it.
I got the bluefin otoro from the belt and it was warm and had a fishy taste so I spat it out. Make sure you order that one fresh off the monitor if you are going to get it.
I like how you'd feed the plates in the slot. The operation is efficient. I think it is the only dine-in fast sushi experience you can get in the southbay. Don't expect high quality grade sauce, oil, meat, and fish, but descent quality and taste for the value and variety.
I got too full, else I would have tried the new item - sockeye salmon. Something to look for to next time for a bite under 30 minutes after seating.
