Raku 57 in Warwick

Great atmosphere. Incredible food. One of my favourite restaurants to visit. I'd definitely reccomend the plum wine 🍷

Dined here multiple times over the last year and have always had a good meal in a lovely environment. Easily the best place in Kenilworth if not Warwickshire.

What a surprise. Came in passing for dinner and we chose their £38pp menu. Not cheap. But gosh that was good. There was A LOT of food and of every sort. I am a bit eater and we had to take some home cause we couldn’t finish. Everything was fantastic, we loved it. And the staff was also very nice. We’ll be back!

We shared a delicious salmon and crab sushi roll for a starter and opted for a ramen each for main - both the regular and spicy tonkotsu ramens were fantastic. The teryaki beef skewer on the side was very tasty as well - all good value and fast service with a nice ambiance on a Friday evening. Look forward to returning!

We made a reservation for Saturday night and were delighted to find the restaurant bustling with many families, creating a fantastic ambiance. We had a wonderful time with delicious and generous portions of food,along with attentive service. We eagerly anticipate returning in the near future.

Superb! We ordered takeaway - but immediately regretted it once we saw the interior… so sweet! Lovely lights and lanterns, a really kind welcome and the food was ready bang on time. Perfect Korean fried chicken, great gyoza and tempura, skewers also so so delicious. Thank you for a delicious meal

So lovely to have Japanese restaurant in Kenilworth- excellent service and beautiful food! Already been twice ( lunch and dinner) in one week

Amazing food and great staff. Really enjoyed all of the dishes we ordered and a good selection to choose from. Would definitely recommend and return!

The food we ordered was really amazing. We tried almost every popular item that was shown in the menu. Sushis are not everyone's cup of tea, but the gyoza, tempuras and skewers are really good. The pork bun was a variety item for us. The oyako don and pork don was great in main course.

A really nice spot to visit with friends and it is really worth to give a try to Japanese dishes. Went there to try the famous dish Ramen and there was different types of it we really liked it.

We went to Raku57 to celebrate our daughters birthday. We got a warm welcome with the ambience and Japanese food which was amazing. The service was really good. Will recommend others for a special dining with family and friends.

This spot is great for a casual out, the ambience and table service is so nice. We ordered Japanese beer and some starters only. The pork skewer and prawn tempuras were really good. The interior of the restaurant is well maintained. Will come again for main course dinner.

Excellent food. Something out of the ordinary for Kenilworth. Extensive menu to choose from. Tried the sushi, tempura and tuna taco, which was all excellent. Would recommend to anyone.

A great selection of Japanese and Korean dishes. Can highly recommend the tempura selection. Friendly service. Will happy visit again.

We had a family meal consisting almost entirely of starters - there was so much to choose from. It was all delicious and complimented by Japanese beer, wine and whisky. The owner was helpful in guiding us through the menu and quantities. Will return, to try some of the main courses. A good evening.

Not the best Japanese food I have had. Katsu curry was over cooked. Bread crumbs were burnt. Bowl of rice so…. Small for £4.00. Rice is a Japanese staple and even in Japan comes in abundance. The pricing of the food is seriously over priced. This is marketed as Japanese street food for fine dinning prices. If you want value and a decent meal avoid this place.

We ordered 3 starters and 2 main courses which was plenty of food for us. The food comes out as it’s ready which is ideal. Highly recommend the prawns and the belly pork starter. Followed by teriyaki chicken and ramen. Looking forward to going through...

Surprise find. We were staying in Kenilworth and tripped over this place and chose it because it was different to what we have had previously. This was my first time trying Japanese food and was very impressed. Food was tasty and I would definitely visit...

Lovely mains and starters. Staff not completely able to explain options but this made it more fun. I had spicy Korean pork and the miso aubergine. Both very tasty - especially the aubergine. Sake was smooth and would highly recommend. Also very family friendly.

Not for us, the food was awful. Didn't understand the menu and felt foolish when ordering,asked but still none the wiser. Very expensive for cheap chicken thigh meat starter. Chose the rib eye steak,but when it came covered in nasty tasting mush we couldn't eat...

Such a wonderful meal. Everything was cooked perfectly and we simply couldn't fault a thing. We're both very full but already planning our next trip. Couldn't recommend more. Honestly can say if you're looking for something fun and different in Kenilworth, this is for sure...

First time here, it was OK by not great, food is above average but have had better. The wine selection is very poor and expensive for quite low quality stuff. It was very busy on the night and the service suffered because of this. Not...

Friendly, helpful and knowledgable staff that want to talk you through the menu. Delicious food, attractive presentation. Nice setting, with a good atmosphere.

Last minute booking on visit to see daughter at uni. Was very busy. Our order was taken promptly and staff were pleasant but our food came in an erratic order and several items failed to arrive despite our asking. We had to ask for plates...

I was pleased to find that Japanese restaurant appeared in Kenilworth, as my kids really like Far Eastern cuisine and I have nothing against it, either. We have visited it for lunch - the staff was friendly, the meals were OK both in taste and...

Friendly staff Really tasty food with excellent choice Music not loud and offensive The tofu / kimchi soup was amazing Would recommend for lunch early tea. Quiet at 6 but perfect for us. Bet it’s even better later.

Though would try this place for lunch. First in, so was initially quiet. Swiftly brought chilled water and crackers. Drinks followed; a really fragrant sauvignon blanc went down well. Food arrived rapidly- a sushi Bento box, with a plate of roasted aubergine, and pork belly,...

Went for dinner with high hopes - that weren’t realised. I did learn that it takes a lot of small things to make a great evening, and that some of them were missing here. I don’t drink, so put the drinks menu on the next...

Thank you for the Manager Livu and his team, we had a wonderful experience can't wait to come again!!

First of all the atmosphere, it was amazing! And the manager was so humble. He treats his colleagues very well! The staff was very quick and obedient. Overall I had a wonderful experience!

Poor in every way. We had slow braised pork belly as a starter for 2, there wasn’t enough for us both at all and it wasn’t particularly tasty, then for main course I had a prawn Katsu curry, well it consisted of 3 breaded prawns...

The staff were so attentive throughout but not intrusive. Water glasses were regularly topped up. The food came out as the dishes were ready, we shared most of the food. The food itself was absolutely delicious; we had prawn katsu roll, takoyaki, prawn taco and...

What a wonderful little surprise on Kenilworth high street. Lovely little place and a great place to eat. The food was packed with flavours- delicious. It's not cheap, but it is worth it for a special treat. Highly recommend if you like Asian flavours done...

great to get something different. lots of choice. our five year old grandson enjoyed his meal as did 6 other adults.

Just popped in by chance to try for a light lunch, not disappointed at all, the food was excellent, very tasty indeed with decent portions We tried a Vegetable Don Buri , tempura squid and a particularly generous spicy Korean chicken They have draft Kirin...

We had a great evening at Raku, the food was really tasty, the staff friendly and the drinks list very unusual and interesting. However, one of our party was vegan and the menu has very few vegan options - even things that you would expect...

Overall, we enjoyed our visit but two of our dishes were forgotten then came out at the same time when we had intended to have one as a starter and the other as a main course. The rice was only just warm when it came...

Went in for a quick bite before heading to my hotel. Very polite and attentive service. Good is freshly made and tasty. Bonus points for having my favourites like shiitake mushrooms and takoyaki. Sushi is also very tasty and fresh and they will make adjustments...

Wow, we have had the best evening. Amazing food, superb customer service. I can highly recommend this place.

Visited on a Sunday lunchtime, we had mostly veggie options. Everything beautifully cooked, lovely light tempura and the veg gyoza deserve a special mention. Great service too, friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend.

I dined here today with my sister and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. The staff were very friendly & attentive without being over bearing & the food was delicious. I will definitely be going back soon.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. A really warm welcome from the staff, who were not only brilliant when it came to food and drinks service, but also genuine lovely people. The food, even if the staff were horrible I would...

The food is great, really tasty. In particular I would recommend the tacos and the aubergine. The staff are very helpful, if a little inexperienced. As others have said, the wine list is very limited, more choice here would be great. We have been twice...

Came for lunch and honestly was not expecting a lot. Quite a few restaurants I have been to make mediocre Sushi but I was extremely surprised it was really good. I sat down and was given free prawn crackers (Very nice tasted of prawn 10/10)...

Have visited Raku 57 twice in the past weeks it’s amazing! The food is gorgeous, the atmosphere is nice and the staff are lovely and friendly. Highly recommend and can see it becoming one of our favourite go to places to eat! A great new...

Six of us had dinner here and thoroughly enjoyed it! Food was lovely and very share-able. Timings were good. All the usual Japanese dishes - miso soup, sashimi, sushi, a vegetarian and a pork gyoza, all kinds of delicious things with rice and noodles, green...

Four of us had dinner here last night, a busy Friday night with a full restaurant. After having endless poor meals out elsewhere, it was wonderful to have simply excellent service from the start. Really attentive staff with super fast service, nothing was too much...

My wife and I love Japanese food and have visited the country. As much as we enjoy Indian food it is great to have a different cuisine option in Kenilworth. Our experience of Raku 57 was fine (a score of 2.5 would be more accurate)...

Absolutely incredible food - brilliant staff and great atmosphere. I had read some bad reviews about service but not the experience we had at all. It was a Wednesday evening so maybe not as busy as a weekend but still pretty full. It was a...

4 went for early dinner so restaurant very quite to start but did fill up. Food a bit of a curates egg, good and sometimes excellent in parts but not all parts. Very limited wine list one red one white one red and a Japanese...

Lovely meal and drinks for a good price. Miso aubergine was incredible. Service was also excellent. Some interesting drinks but the sake and plum wine were a great accompaniment. Did seem to be busy so I'd book but hardly any waiting time.

Food was really nice but it came at very random times. We firstly asked for sushi to be told they couldn't do sushi. ( For a Japanese restaurant that was disappointing). We had to ask about the last dish as it never came, so we...

Premium prices for mediocre food and slow, inattentive service. Drinks were served promptly, but the Asahi was warm and served in plastic glasses, disgraceful at £12 for 2. The food arrived 1 hour after we were seated, and apart from the tempura prawns (which were...

Locals to Kenilworth for a friends birthday. Thought we’d try the new Japanese and we were very disappointed with the service. We called in advance pushing our booking back half an hour, to be told by the manager when we’re eating our mains, they will...

Weekend lunch at this new place excited to try it out. The food is not great and expensive. Definitely not on par with any other Japanese place within 10 miles, including the chains. Service is variable- one over attentive guy- whisking empty dishes/glasses seconds after...

Excellent quality food and service. The manager clearly concentrates on customer satisfaction. Highly recommended

Enticing menu with a great selection of small and large dishes. The quality of the food was superb and clearly created by an experienced head chef. The food is complimented by a very experienced front of house manager. All in all a great new restaurant...

We enjoyed a lovely selection of dishes this evening, fresh and delicious The service was great. A welcome addition to the Kenilworth restaurant choices
