Kamakura Japanese Restaurant

You have to come here! My husband and I loved everything we ate. Our 5 year old got the kids chicken teriyaki w. the california roll. It's a big portion, you might even be able to split this between two younger kids if you wanted. We all ended up trying the Cali Roll and loved it. Our 10 year old ordered the Nabe Udon. It's definitely big enough to share as well. The waitress was kind enough to bring us two extra bowls and spoons. The broth was AMAZING. We also had the gyoza, and the dragon eye roll. The dragon eye roll was absolutely delicious. The service was also great. All of the waitresses that worked there were very nice and did a great job of checking on us.

I thought I'd give this place another try because my preferred Sushi joint in town was closed. Google maps said they were open 'till 9:30 this Saturdaynight.. I walked in at 9:05. The place is usually packed, but tonight, hree of the dozen or so tables were occupied with rolls on the table. I pulled up and sat at the bar like I always do to see what looked fresh and interesting,..meh. I'm a Nigiri/Sashimi guy and wasn't that impressed the last time i was there a week ago. The server asked me, "one?", then told me to take a table as opposed to the bar because they needed to clean up? I took a table expecting to see a menu, but instead was asked if i could order quickly because they were going to close soon. I asked her how she could expect me to order without a menu?? I left and won't come

My family and I had a delightful dining experience at Kamakura Japanese Restaurant in Los Gatos, and we were particularly impressed with the cleanliness of the establishment. The dining area was spotless, with tables and chairs meticulously arranged and free of any debris. The floors were well-maintained, and the overall ambiance was inviting and comfortable. The restrooms were also exceptionally clean, which added to our positive experience. The staff at Kamakura took great care in ensuring that all surfaces were regularly sanitized, and we noticed them frequently cleaning high-touch areas. This attention to detail made us feel safe and well-cared for during our visit. The presentation of the food was also impeccable, with each dish served on clean and attractive tableware. The overall c

The rice was overcooked! Even the simplest rolls looked as if they were thrown together blindfolded. Honestly, it felt like the place wanted to get rid of its customers rather than feed them. And the baked mussels? A culinary trap — steer clear at all costs.

Their sashimi has a huge potion and the fish is very fresh. Their rolls are also have great taste. Service is fine.
