The best restaurants serving Japanese food in Reading South East

I tried this for the first time tonight. I ordered the Katsu Salad. It was really nice and I will definitely be doing this again. I ordered via Deliveroo and the service was quick and the presentation of the food was good too.

Enjoyed a very pleasant dinner last night. And would like to highlight the excellent guidance and service received from Prab.

Super quick good value. Poke bowl was tasty but not the best I’ve ever had, could have done with some more sauce as was a bit dry in places. But overall good value and very fresh. £10 meal deal too!

Shit for over a year. Order tonight on there first day re opened it was even better than I remembered really is the best Japanese In the UK. Outstanding thank you so much

Great service. Quick delivery and delicious food

Friendly staff, helpful. Nice food.

We had amazing evening in your Reading brunch. Great good and friendly service. Cant ask for more. Will come back

Been eating Kokoro for over 10 years, and it remains a reliable comfort food after all these years. Would recommend half chilli chicken and half katsu chicken + curry sauce on the side. Makes for a wonderful blend of textures with a juicy and perfectly spicy dish that you can keep topping up the curry sauce in

You pay for what you get basically. The price point is cheap for a Japanese restaurant but the quality is average.

Came here for supper after church with the other young adults from church. It would be helpful if the staff were more knowledgeable about allergies because while I can eat anything, one of the others is gluten free and for a moment it looked like there wouldn’t be anything suitable (but eventually something was identified on the menu that she could eat ). Their lack of knowledge of the constituents of particular items was also unhelpful to me when I was trying to choose from the available customisations for what I wanted to order for myself.

Over priced and over hyped. Food is nice but it's just not worth the money. Staff were pleasant and efficient. Your being charged nearly £10 for two small glasses of orange juice just who thinks that is acceptable?

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.
