About

RAKU specializes in authentic Japanese culinary techniques, emphasizing precision and the high quality of raw ingredients. The menu showcases an extensive selection of meticulously prepared sushi and sashimi, demonstrating a clear commitment to traditional preparation methods. Patrons find a robust focus on low-carbohydrate options, integrating keto-friendly principles into traditional Asian flavor profiles through the use of fresh proteins and crisp, seasonal vegetables. The kitchen prioritizes clarity of flavor, ensuring that every piece of nigiri and every signature roll maintains the integrity of the marine harvests utilized. Minimalist presentation techniques allow the natural texture of the seafood to take center stage, supported by subtle seasoning rather than excessive additions. This focus on fundamental Japanese preparation provides a consistent experience for individuals seeking structured, protein-rich nourishment crafted with technical expertise.

Très bonne cuisine chaude & faite en direct sur place. Je recommande vivement cet endroit où l'on mange très bien pour pas cher.

Authentic tasting Japanese home favorites including donburi & curry. I don't have any complaints about the food & experience as well as the value, my only recommendation is to put the takoyaki on a plate instead of bowl so they dont get soggy on the bottom ;) thanks for the katsu & oyakodon!

Great, attentive service with a relaxed atmosphere. Honestly, the food was rather average compared to other restaurants that specialize in Japanese curry & katsu.

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!

Cozy spot to enjoy some great Japanese food. Price are cheap but really good quality & big portions, big fan of their tonkatsu. I tried delivery but wanted to try in person & happy to have done so! If you're in the area is worth a try.

Good overall. The wait was quite long (upwards of 30 min for 3 mains). I got the chicken Cari which was nicely fried. The Cari itself was too salty. Would give it another try.

Chicken Katsu is by far the best I ever had. Fair price & friendly service.
