Went on a quiet Monday afternoon. Street parking in the area is not great.
Ordered the salmon lion king, hotate (scallop) aburi, avocado maki, gyoza and chicken katsudon.
The sushi dishes were so delicious (as expected). Gyoza was 4/5.
The chicken katsudon was 2.5/5. The chicken was completely soggy. I would not have been surprised if it was cooked beforehand (with the egg already on top) and just microwaved. I’ve had Japanese where the chicken was fried beforehand and kept in a heater. The chicken on those occasions were dry, tough and not crispy. But at least it wasn’t soggy! The pieces of onion were quite large so I didn’t want to bite into them, just left them in the bowl. The sauce was not flavourful enough to save the bland egg and soggy chicken.
The table next to us had ordered curry which smelt amazing. I would have ordered that had it not been a stinking hot day!
Sushi Kotobuki is on the other side of town from where I live. I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to return but definitely would drop in for sushi if in the area.
The lion king roll is absolutely amazing and the ruby roll is also very good! The staff here are always nice and friendly.
Brings back good memories of when I used to live and work in the city.
