We have been dining at the Kokoro branch in Wimbledon for years and recently moved away from London. Visiting Leicester we found another branch of Kokoro and it lived up to expectation. The food is great; piping hot, crispy chicken and lovely katzu curry. Plenty of sides are available including spring rolls, gyuko and more. Great assortment of cold drinks and everything is reasonably priced and clear. There is clear brand consistency as the restaurant looks and feels like the others we had been too. Dropped a star as there is still a long wait as the counter is so busy; the toilets were elusive and difficult to find. The restaurant is not suitable for people who are in wheelchairs or cannot go up lots of stairs- however take away us available. There is also a small outdoor area with two tables and seats. Nice to visit this franchise; would go again.

The sushi rice was way too mushy. The salmon and prawn sashimi was good along with the inari. But a huge red flag in sushi is mayo. I’ve had sushi in LA, Tokyo, and New Delhi. New Delhi drowns their sushi in mayonnaise and it’s so disgusting. My salmon and avocado rolls had light mayo on the inside and I didn’t realize it when I looked at the rolls but when I was eating the rolls they tasted off. The rice was too mushy and there was mayonnaise. I’d skip this place if you’re a bit of a sushi snob. Staff was super friendly.

Staff are great. Really nice lady works there. Food is terrible though. The quality of the meat was really poor. I ended up returning it. £9.55 for rice and poor meat is not on. Won’t be going again, despite the nice staff.

The Tofu Katsu Curry was good, portion size was also good. Definitely recommend for a clean, quick and tasty takeaway.

This is the third time visiting a different Kokoro. It is the first time where they wouldn't customise options even though we were the only ones in there. Disappointing as all the other Kokoros had before and we could see someone making up the sushi so it isn't like anyone wasn't available. This happened the second time visiting this Kokoro yesterday, the first time we went at lunch time and ordered a Pumpkin Katsu Curry and a Chicken Katsu Curry, we were very surprised at how much Pumpkin and Chicken we got as other places like Yo Sushi for example only give you a small amount. The down side was that I felt like the curry had a bit of a strange after taste, I have tried a lot of katsu Currys and none of them had this weird taste. A lot of options and it was clean which is why I am giving it 3 stars.
