My fiancé and I were blown away by how delish this sushi was!…read more What we got: -Yummy roll (chef's special roll) - shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, avocado -Spicy tuna roll -Philly roll -Gyoza The rolls were thick, especially the Yummy specialty roll! I think the seaweed was a little crispy in my tuna roll, because there was a slight crunch that I loved. There was also an extra, uncut version of my spicy tuna roll, which we did not order, but twas a happy accident! My fiancé loved his Philly roll, and we split the Yummy roll which was just insanely good. And of course gyoza is always a good idea! It was a little pricey, but we ordered from Uber Eats, so the prices were hiked up (the Yummy specialty roll was $25)... not sure what the actual prices are like because the menu isn't available online from what I can see, but I'll probably go there to order next time! So excited to have this in my rotation! we are so lucky to have such high quality sushi in Pittsburgh!

Upon entering the place I immediately had a feeling of, "no, I don't want to eat here". The place…read moreis very unorganized. Supplies everywhere. A TV is on and playing concert shorts of singers (have no idea who), singing American tunes. Not awful but strange. You order from a QR code and enter your table number, but they will present you with a bill at the end, again strange. Decor is a bunch of pictures of beautiful sushi plates, I am for sure they did not come from this kitchen. We ordered: Onion pancakes Crab Rangoon Beef ramen Chicken ramen Spicy combo sushi plate The order it came out: Miso soup (we were asked shortly before this what we ordered. I showed my email from my order, and said Ramen and Miso showed up). Rangoon's: strange texture to them. It was like an under fried ravioli but with cream cheese as filler. Chicken ramen (actually pretty good; not great) Beef ramen (not as pictured; fried beef chunks with gristle in them in a chicken broth- not beef). Looong pause where we thought we weren't going to get the rest of our order Sushi combo (upon looking at it, I called it sushi slop). This was by far the most messy sushi I've seen. I think I could roll better on my first try! It was falling apart as we were trying to eat it! Fresh watermelon (not ordered but I'm guessing it is replacing the traditional orange quarters). Onion pancakes: dripping in oil; not very good. More Phyllo than onion. To top it off me, my husband and 12 year old all ate 2 tums on the way home. Feel like a rice brick is in our stomaches. $65! Never again.

The broth was rich and savory, and it came with multiple slices of meat which just melts in your mouth. The food did take a longer time than expected to come out, but the servers were nice and helpful. Overall recommend!!

This used to be one of our favorite places for sushi. Last night it was not busy at all, but the service was subpar, I ordered a salad and never received it. I was so disappointed because their ginger dressing is by far one of the best or at least it used to be. It's been a while since I've had it. The sushi was good, but the rolls were not rolled real tight (they fell apart, and the pieces of sushi seemed much thinner than they used to be). On the plus side specialty rolls are 40% off Mon-Thurs for dine in so that was a nice bonus! The woman's room can use a good cleaning: the toilets all have huge rings around them and there were fake nails on the bathroom floor along with dirt and grime.

"No. That shouldn't be in the menu but it's been there for years." Okay, but the dinner comes with shrimp and it's $29. I'm allergic, can I substitute? "No." So, you take off the $8? "No." What do people do that have seafood allergies? "They leave." Okay. (Food might be amazing, no clue. The staff was sweet about it and without calling the owner out, silently called the owner out.)

Kura is a fun, casual lunch or dinner option if you like sushi, tempura, or ramen. The restaurant…read moreuses a conveyor-belt system: plates and small side dishes continuously pass your booth on the main belt, and you simply take whatever looks good. A touch screen at your table lets you order items that aren't on the main belt; those orders arrive on a separate, fast conveyor belt above the main one. When you finish, drop your plates into a slot at the booth--plates are counted and you're billed by plate. Drinks are ordered on the touch screen as well and are brought to your booth by a friendly robot. The format is efficient and entertaining, and it's easy to sample a variety of small dishes. Ramen, tempura and other dishes are available alongside the sushi, and service is generally quick because of the automated system. That said, the sushi itself is just okay, not outstanding. You can find better, and cheaper sushi elsewhere in Pittsburgh, but those places won't offer the same conveyor-belt experience. There are two downsides to keep in mind: the continuous stream of plates makes it easy to rack up a large bill if you're not careful, and the sushi quality is only average, but if you want a fun, interactive meal with lots of variety, Kura is worth a visit. If you're after top-tier sushi or trying to stick to a strict budget, choose a different spot.

Always enjoy our visits to Kura…read more This is one of our daughter's favorite restaurant. So we try to visit a Kura place for one of our family meals. We enjoyed the idea that every person can order their own dish and it's personal-sized. There's no concern about ordering something that no one else likes and leaving a lot of leftovers. The quality of the food is good. Their kitchen items are always appreciated. We especially like the ramen, scallop. The noodles are better than fast food.

We booked our anniversary dinner at Soba, and they did not disappoint…read more We had a great table close to the opening with fresh air and seats to see the dining area and bar. Our server was very sweet and helped us around the menu. We started with the spicy tuna roll and dumplings. The dumplings tasted fresh. The spicy tuna rolls was huge and could almost be your whole meal. The rare tuna had a nice char on the sesame crust. The branzino was served in a delicious panang curry. We left very full. It was an anniversary dinner we won't forget. If you're coming in, note that they do change their menu seasonally. But worth stopping in. It's a nice change of pace from being in downtown.

My go-to order is always the chicken katsu bento, and it is the perfect, filling lunch every time. It comes with a California roll, rice, and a few shumai dumplings, and you can choose either a side salad or miso soup. I love that it feels like a full, well-rounded meal without having to think too hard about what to order. I've dined in once before and had a great experience, but most of the time I call ahead for pickup or order through Uber Eats. Either way, the quality is consistently excellent. This has been a reliable lunch staple for me for years, and I keep coming back because it never disappoints.
