You can choose from a variety of fishes as well. They were pretty fresh and yummy. The guy working there was really nice. He had a lot of advice and suggestions. The place is literally a fish market so not a dine in place. Parking is ample. Otherwise, it's pretty quiet and calm. The stuff is sometimes pricey but when they do deals like this, it's worth it. Will probably be back for their sushi and sashimi special as well.

But the lunch omakase special is what I really wanted I think. But even so. The poke bowl was mixed. I have to unfortunately knock off the stars/taste because the rice I got was literally the worst rice I've ever had touching raw fish. The rice was like hard and stale. I even had a clump that looked like it was the burnt part from leaving it on the cooker for too long and it couldn't bite it. I know this place is for the fish, but there's a bare minimum expectation on rice quality. And the fish itself was good? Maybe cuz it's the poke and not the omakase (so mixed chopped pieces) but there were pieces that tasted super fresh and delicious and then there were pieces that had so much tendon I couldn't bite through it. The folks there were super nice and friendly especially since I had no idea what to order. Just wish I was more delighted by the meal, especially cuz it was like $18 poke bowl. I'll give it another try with hopes it's better next time.

This is one of two or three restaurants/bars inside Bellevue Club…read more First off, the service was amazing. I think our server's name is Peyton. It looked like she was the only server today covering the entire seating area (other than the bar) and she remembered all of my group's drinks and somehow showed up whenever we needed attention. Efforts way beyond expectations. In fact, this is one of the main reasons I am giving this venue a 5 star review. Our food was good too (see photo). I just wish they had more variety of beer. It doesn't even have to be on tap but even can/bottle options. Their liquor selection is excellent (especially bourbon!) and it seemed like they offer decent wines too. I don't know much about wine though. As far as I know, you do not need to be a member of Bellevue Club to dine here. No one from my party today was (but I was here for an event and I invited my friends over for happy hour afterwards). The prices are great during happy hour and even non-happy hour prices aren't expensive in my humble opinion - especially given the location. Highly recommended if you're in the area.

Luckily for us, Ivar's works for both of our palettes. As for me, their clam chowder checks a ton of my want to eat boxes. 1. Consistency/thickness (not too soupy) is quite ideal 2. Ratio of potato, meat, and clams is solid 3. Price point is more than reasonable 4. Reheats well, taste good the day after The parking at this location is plentiful. This place works for me!

Old school faux waterfront decor (some may consider it dated, I think it's rather charming). My shrimp Po' Boy sandwich was actually rather good. THE THORNS: Rather lackluster service. I asked for unsweetened tea and got sweet (I'm sweet enough as it is; I don't need extra sugar). Granted, the sole server was working the bar and a nearly empty dining room, but perhaps if he spent less time conversing with the diners at another table, he'd remember my order? To be fair, he fixed the error in a timely manner. THE VERDICT: Very middle of the road. If you don't have a soft spot for the OG 'Sea Galley' 1970s decor, you'd find this place a bit outdated and long in the tooth. Neither recommend nor discourage.

The bartender was the first to acknowledge us and kindly told us it would be a few minutes. Then the manager told the hostess to seat us and she came over very unhappy. She didn't greet us or thank us for our patience and then when she took us to our table, she put the menus down and just walked away while we were thanking her. Carla, our waitress came over with a friendly smile and was so kind. She provided suggestions to my mom since she was unsure which wine to order. My mom ended up going with the Waterbrook Chardonnay and loved it. Then when our seafood feasts came out, there were too much seasonings on the corn and potatoes for my 7-year old niece, that Carla offered to bring a few unseasoned versions. Carla took really good care of us and we appreciated her friendly, caring nature and would recommend requesting her section when visiting. This establishment is so lucky to have her! Carla is a true gem!

Wowwww…read morewowowowowow The ambiance is incredible, from the decor, food, space, service, even down to the menu. Our server was so incredibly sweet, so accommodating and so patient with all of my questions and requests. I started off with the Lychee Sake-tini and I will be thinking about that drink for a longggg time, for someone who loves a fruity lil sweet drink it was perfection in every way. Then the FOOD. You can do hibachi or you can be seated in the dining room and I had my heart set on sushi (but now will be back to try hibachi for sure!). My partner ordered the pico sushi tower and the fried calamari. Both were very impressive serving sizes! She was feeling ambitious and was going to order 3 tapas, but ended up not even being able to finish the two. I ordered the sake bento box and WOW. I had had my heart pretty set on trying it going in because I had looked at the menu ahead of time, and was sad when the menu didn't have it listed as gluten free BUT I mentioned it to our server and she was happy to accommodate. I got to live my sushi bento box dreams We already are thinking of all the reasons and times to come back, 10000/10!!!

When I first stepped in the door, I was so glad I brought a light jacket with me even though it was 80 degrees outside. I'm not sure why, but the restaurant had the A/C turned up so high that even the people eating next to us had their puffer coats on. Even with my coat on though, I was still cold. The interior is small and modern. However, the tables and menus were extremely and unpleasantly sticky. The soy sauce bottle was also empty at our table. I ordered the HAPPY HOUR CHIRASHI BOWL ($22 which is half the size and price of the usual $44 Chirashi Bowl off their main menu). It came with two pieces of salmon, two pieces of albacore, two pieces of hamachi, and two pieces of some other tuna (or maybe it was mackerel) plus tamago (egg), and Ikura (salmon roe) on top of their signature purple rice. The presentation was nice, but the fish quality lacked. The albacore in particular was so chewy I had trouble biting through it and so I knew it wasn't fresh; I ate one piece but left the other in the bowl because I didn't want to chance it. Regardless, my stomach regretted it later in the evening and the next day... Service was fine, but we had to waive down the waiter both to order and get our check. When he asked if I wanted a box for my piece of albacore, I told him it was too chewy and he said sorry and walked away. Overall, I was unfortunately disappointed by my experience at Kuro. For a recommended place on Yelp, I expected a better environment and fresh fish. Overall: 2/5 for food, 3/5 for service, 2/5 for atmosphere
