The manager claimed to have given us the wrong bill but as it had all the items we really did order as well as numerous meals and drinks which we didn't, i found this to be a strange excuse. The manager said their policy when having overcharged was to apologise which was all they did. My advice is to check your bill very carefully if you ever dine here.

My friend and I arrived at opening time (5:30) without making a reservation. We sat at the counter (right on the corner is the best spot by the way; most room) as all the tables had already been reserved! I found this a little hard to believe for a weeknight, but sure enough, the place soon filled up, counter and all! I guess Kura is pretty popular with the locals. The staff were friendly and polite, suitable attentive without being pushy. Top marks. The food was also reasonably priced, and the serving sizes of what we ordered were more than satisfactory. We ordered the bridge roll (which looked interesting and also tasted good), the cheese and shrip deep-friend spring rolls, the beef-tongue steak (which was OK; I was expecting thinly sliced tongue but this was thick and soft), and the chicken karaage. There were also a good selection of beers, with Asahi and Sapporo on tap (more of a Kirin man myself, but if it comes down to bottle or tap, tap's gonna win on a hot day) The fireplace would be really nice in winter time. Sounds like a good excuse to go again. All in all, a solid performance from Kura. Went to Kura for the first time last Wednesday.
