C'etait une mauvaise experience. Le serveur n'etait pas gentil & ne parlait pas francais, donc c'etait difficile de communiquer. En plus, la nourriture n'etait pas bonne. Je ne recommande pas.

It was my first time trying Raku & I must say, it's definitely not the last.
Well priced, portions are perfect, quality is amazing, & the staff are soo friendly; let's not forget about the ambience inside, very cozy.
Another thing i loved about it is the simple menu. & even though i was hesitant about choosing the side, a staff member was kind enough to get me an extra to test out (without me asking) & it was such a nice gesture.
11/10, highly recommended

The curry katsu here is delicious! As well their service is great. I ordered: Curry udon TonKatsu with curry The curry here is a must its great. Not only that the pork kastu i got was so crispy & it goes so well with the curry. I wish they had a bit more curry though i felt it wasn't enough ti go with the rice. Other than that i recommend coming here!
