Walked into the “restaurant “ on a sunny day and the temperature inside was so cold I couldn’t believe it. I assume they don’t want people to linger? Luckily I’d taken a jacket inside with me but I was still cold. I have a few food allergens and the information on the touchscreen ordering point clearly said ask a member of staff for guidance. That resulted in being given a paper menu with a grid to show what I could or couldn’t have. I’d have preferred some personal input but he’d disappeared. Anyhow, chose a chicken dish on rice. But so did my husband and when they appeared we didn’t know which was which. Very difficult getting assistance to tell us as the only man behind the counter was flitting around like a bee. By the time we had it sorted our food was very cold. It clearly didn’t start hot but now it was quite grim. My husbands looked much more appealing than mine as his chicken had a sauce covering it. Mine looked awful and tasted worse. I don’t know how they cook it but I’d think maybe boiled? It smelt awful :/ I don’t even know why we didn’t just hand it back and ask for a refund. The rice with a bit of sauce was ok but as I said it was cold. I’ve given this establishment two stars. It would have been one except for the fact it seemed quite clean. We will never go back there as long as we live.

Ordered online, waited over an hour when told to expect a 30 minute wait. Order was then cancelled, at nearly 10pm on a Friday night. Complete joke of a restaurant. Not good enough.

9 Queens WalkGood food, not really a really Japanese. The staff a little cold. Also a 3 year old kid, that don’t eat Japanese food was charged.

13 Queen Victoria StreetFor a standard chain place, the quality of Kokoro is insane for the price. I tend to order the sweet and chilli chicken with rice. The rice is sticky and perfectly made, the chicken is slightly crispy and the sauce is really sweet and spicy. You get your food within one minute. The only criticism I have is the size of the joint. Three of four small tables to fit one or two people inside.

Reading Gate Retail ParkItsu is probably the most authentic non Japanese owned chain in the UK We went 2 days ago to find new products on the menu including an array of snacks. The Thai dishes are just incredible with a beautiful flavour profile that is just mouth watering. The staff have changed for the better as they are more customer related. Recommendation Go enjoy a good Asian meal. #garystribe #localguide #localguides #letsguide #reading #itsu

31 Queen Victoria StreetI recently visited Itsu, a Japanese restaurant located on Broad Street in Reading, and had an exceptional dining experience. As someone trying Japanese cuisine for the first time, I was thoroughly impressed. We ordered the Veggie Dragon Balls and Korean Stir Fry Noodles, both of which were delicious and beautifully presented. The ambience of the eatery was inviting and comfortable, creating a perfect setting for a relaxed meal. The service was outstanding; the staff were friendly and attentive, offering excellent suggestions that truly enhanced our dining experience. The recommendations provided by our server were spot on, making our meal even more enjoyable. One of the highlights was the quality of the sauces, particularly the Soy Sauce Teriyaki, which added a delightful flavor to the dishes. The attention to detail and the high quality of the ingredients used in the food were evident in every bite. Overall, our visit to Itsu was a memorable experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore Japanese cuisine. The combination of great food, superb service, and a pleasant atmosphere makes Itsu a must-visit restaurant in Reading.
