Kamakura Japanese Restaurant

I've been here several times and have really enjoyed each dining experience. The service is amazing, they are very courteous and watching to see if you need anything during your meal. The food is very good and generous. They have inside dining - the upstairs opens up if they get crowded, as well as outside dining. I really enjoy the lunchtime bento box meals. If you get an opportunity for a midday meal, I recommend this, as it is customizable and has everything you'd want.

Cozy sushi place in downtown los gatos. Their lunch special (the bento box) is such a steal! Miso soup, salad (dairy free), 4 pieces of sashimi (tuna & salmon), gyoza, and rice for $21! Quality of food was really good, excellent service, and easy parking. Will be back!

Had lunch here with three other buddies yesterday.The ambiance is cozy for a Nice little restaurant.The service was pretty much on par, probably could use more help since the wait staff had to run around, but even though they were, they were spot on with their service....Bravo for them!Food was delicious! We ordered four monster rolls plus two lunches to share.Tempura and Tonkatsu dishes were shared between the 4 of us. Crispy and light tempura batter and just the perfect crunch and juiciness with the Tonkatsu.Good food, good drink and excellent company!Definitely be back

The sashimi here!!!! This is one of the best sashimi places in our area no doubt. The first time I ordered the sashimi plate I was SHOCKED. The sizes of the slices are huge! You really get a lot of bang for your buck. Just look at the photos. I don't always love tuna, sometimes it has that weird taste, but not here! I loved the taste of their tuna, none of their sashimi tasted fishy. Everything was so fresh. I've also tried their rolls, very amazing.The service is very friendly, the food comes out quick. One thing though is the restaurant is a little small, they have seating after you go up some stairs but I noticed because of the size of the restaurant it did get kind of loud when you sit up top. I'd sit outside for the best experience, if the weather permits it.

This has always been one of my favorite sushi spots. I've never gotten a roll here that I didn't like. While this restaurant is on the pricier side compared to some other sushi restaurants in the South Bay, the sushi is fresh and seems to be pretty high quality. Also, the nigiri is/are HUGE! I recently came and ordered the unagi and hamachi nigiri, they were $9 each (per 2 pieces) , but the amount of fish that was provided absolutely made it worth the price. I also ordered the crazy roll recently, and that roll was overflowing with fish, it was fantastic! The restaurant itself is fairly small with no frills, just sushi and quick service, while still remaining thorough and friendly. There's almost always people waiting when I come in, so it's nice that they work to get you in and out quickly so you don't have to wait too long.

Couldn't be happier with the good food & stellar sevice & crisp beer I ordered.I ordered sashimi, a sushi, roll, and two pieces of Nigri. The food came out pretty fast, the environment was nice, not too warm not too cold, cool, decorations around the restaurant. High ceiling with nicd lighting! I sat by the window, and asked the waiter, if my order seemed like too much for one person, he gave me appropriate suggestions which I appreciated and took into consideration when ordering. Really great price too, the food I ordered was definitely enough for two people, but I had just worked out for three hours, so I was in dire need of calories. once again, aaaamaaazing quality on the fish. One of the best sashimi I've tasted.I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Monte Sereno or Los Gatos, or just looking for a great bite of Japanese food. 5/5!

Service is delightful, food comes quickly and is arranged beautifully with filling portions. Lovely outside dining area, great for people watching and for taking in the lovely summer weather. 5 stars rating would've been given for a fresher quality of fish, otherwise everything was great! Would highly recommend the sashimi!

Walked in without a reservation on a Saturday afternoon and was easily seated. They have the option for indoor or patio. All the fish looked super fresh. The sushi was average and felt one note. I wish the Godzilla roll had more texture. It was super soft. The miso was delicious. If I'm in the area I would consider trying this place again in hopes of a more exciting roll or one of their noodle dishes

Love the Kamakura Salad. Quick service, both Togo and Eat in. Everyone is nice and the fish is so fresh!

Amazing food and wonderful service! I always have a great time here. My son said his tempura was "cooked to perfection"
