My favourite at Kokoro is Salmon Teriyaki with plain rice. Tried before with noodles rather than rice. But noodles is already sweet and Teriyaki sauce is sweet as well. Rice goes better with Salmon Teriyaki meal. Today I decided to try something new. I ordered a Sweet and Chilli chicken. I'll never have it again. Too dry and chewy.

Great fast food with chilli chicken, katsu chicken, and other oriental dishes served in a basic yet tasty way. Somehow an indulgence, and a guilty pleasure.

This store refuses cash so I will never shop there again. In any case there is a great Thai grocery store at the top of Guildford High Street near Coop which sell much better products, great friendly staff and accept cash like real human beings

I noticed that portions of meat are getting smaller. Today I have ordered Chicken katsu curry with rice and the bowl was full with rice and just few pieces of meat on top. I was not happy about it at all.

The chicken katsu curry with rice was delicious—crispy and tender, with a good portion size. Prices are super affordable, and the staff were really friendly. Highly recommend if you're looking for a tasty, budget-friendly meal. It's my go-to spot for quick meals.

Order sweet and sour chicken. Some bits of it are not even chicken in eat but plain fried flour. The sauce tastes to basically ketchup base. Really disappointed with it. And small ball regular mixed with rice more than 8.00. Ridiculous and abusive price for the quality and quantity.

Kokoro is one of the best and my most favourite places to eat in Guilford! Pam who serves us the most is the most wonderful person iv ever met, always service with a smile, always polite and makes me feel at home. Eating here feels like mummas home cooked food. 10/10 for everything will always be back for more I can't get enough. Everything on the menu is so tasty! I recommend it all! Xxx

Yesterday, I went to the store with my son. Just as we were about to pay, my phone unexpectedly switched off. Luckily, I had a charger with me and asked if they could help charge the phone for a minute so I could pay with my contactless. The lady at the counter immediately shouted "noooo" without giving any reason. She was so dismissive and didn't treat me with any kindness. As a black woman, I couldn't help but wonder if her reaction had something to do with my race. It was a very shocking and bitter experience to be faced with such racist behavior from an angry Asian woman.

The food at the restaurant was delicious, and the portion sizes were generous. However, the sitting area felt a bit cramped due to its small size. Overall, it was a great dining experience, but it would be even better with a more spacious seating arrangement.

Used to be really good, but from couple months back it seems the staff has changed and so has the food quality. I normally get spicy pork and katsu curry. I’ve noticed in the recent few times ive got spicy pork and katsu curry from here, the pork meat is REALLY STINKY and not spicy either. The katsu curry chicken is pink inside not cooked properly, quality has really dropped since staff changed!!!!. This place used to do the best food compared to other Kokoro franchises but it has now dropped to one pf the wordt. Disappointing!!!

Kokoro has always been my go to takeaway place and I do not know what happened but their food has gone way too sweet. Their beef and chicken is literally biting into sugar. Its just an imitated Asian food for the western. They used to be a good for their low price and ready made food catered in front of you and ready made sushi in the fridge so it was also time efficient. But since their increase in price and reduced portion sizes it has lost its value compared to other new restaurants and takeaway shops near by. 10 minutes wait and with paying a little more can get you a bigger portion freshly cooked for your order and better flavour at Hanki with a lot more Korean food options which is just upper side of the high street for example. And better sushi takeaway from Sushi Nara although there is a bit of a price difference. I guess people have different preferences in their food such as faster and cheaper food or fresh and better food, so Kokoro still do work but now I feel they are falling behind the trend as the standards of people are starting to notice nowadays.

Ordered by Click & Collect to collect ASAP, when I arrived was told to join the back of the queue and had to wait 30 minutes in total to collect. To top it off the chicken teriyaki was awful, poor quality chicken, bland sugary sauce, no spice at all. Katsu was good but overall an awful experience of what was meant to be a quick and convenient takeout!

Always fantastic food here. Generous portions, reasonable prices and friendly, quick service. The sushi I’ve had has always been fresh and tasty. The hot menu is varied with something to suit all tastes. They use chicken thigh rather than breast meat which I prefer due to the better taste and texture- I find it a lot juicier and not dry at all (although if you don’t like dark meat, it may not be for you). We’re very lucky to have 2 branches of Kokoro in Guildford and I will definitely remain a faithful customer!

Sadly Kokoro is not what it used to be, having been for 5 years, the quality has dropped dramatically with higher prices. Went 2 days in a row and there wasn't salmon teriyaki. After opting for chicken katsu instead (the first time), the rice was hard and the chicken soggy, like it had been out for an hour. The staff were actually very friendly, but the hot food is not the same.

Great rice! Rice is probably made by a rice cooker, so the human element is excluded. ----- I've ordered a teriyaki chicken. The sauce is oversweet for purpose of masking the loads of vinegar in it. The veggies have been fried almost raw, but that is a good thing, because they offset a poor taste of the chicken, that was browned on a low heat which made it completely dry and rubbery, also I believe the chicken wasn't prepared the same day I have ordered it. I was cooking this poor on my own 20 years ago, when I was a kid, nowadays, this style of cooking is completely beneath me and my amateur cooking skills. Except the rice, this food is nowhere near the Japanese food, this is a traditional British vinegar chow.

Another order, another case of food poisoning. Rice tasted a bit fishy with my sweet chilli chicken, thought it was a bit weird as I don't recall fish sauce in the sweet chilli chicken, woke up in a cold sweat feeling rough as. Checked the allergens list on the website and no mention of fish. Leads me to assume they had re-used rice that had been packaged with sashimi or something similar and in a reheat something bad happened (I'm not allergic to fish sauce/fish) . No bad the craving for kokoro I won't eat there again.

AVOID. The menu has incorrect pictures for the items (the menu shows 12 pieces of three different types of rolls for their 8-piece california rolls box, which only had Katsu). They sent us wrong items within our order, then over the phone said they would not be able to refund or exchange them - we would need to contact the head office for that. When I asked them for that number, they said to look it up online because they weren't able to provide it.

Lovely sunday lunch at the Stag on the River. We had the vegan roast and also the pork roast which were both very nice, albeit a little overpriced for what you get. Parking is also limited so get there early or park round the corner over the Eashing bridge. The staff were friendly and helpful and we requested extra spuds and yorkies which we were provided complimentary with the meal. Would definitely come back for dinner another day. Thank you.
