Kiraku

It’s not common for me to encounter a Japanese restaurant that excels in almost every dishes. But here it is, their appetizer was especially amazing, I wished I could’ve ordered and eat even more appetizers from their diverse selection. Fish for sashimi and nigiri was fatty and fresh , can’t complain about that.

Amazing fast service and the food is so good! Definitely worth visiting and getting their daily specials. If you can get the tuna kama (very limited) it’s well worth it!

Incredible experience! The service was great and the food was SO good! It was definitely on the pricier side so more of a treat yourself/special occasion kind of place, but you can actually taste the quality of the food compared to less expensive restaurants. All the food melts in your mouth and was so good they even made some of us like things that we thought we felt indifferent about or didn't like (certain types of fish and umi). Highly recommend trying!!!

Kiraku is a popular izakaya style restaurant south of Berkeley's campus. There is a wide selection of many dishes that are all delicious. They have every type of Japanese food that you can want. The chef is super awesome, accommodating dietary restrictions and the staff do an excellent job making sure every table is doing well.
