I had my birthday celebrations at Kushiro and must I Say they did not disappoint. We had the Omakase set, and the Kingfish and Cod were a highlight! The food and ambiance was amazing, but the best thing about the night was the level of service the staff and kitchen gave us that night. Not only did they give us personalised gifts for my birthday, but also threw in some Chef freebies! Would definitely recommend this restaurant for that special occasion :)

I would call this place a hidden gem. It's a very beautiful versatile space where you can have an intimate dinner, dine on your own, or dine as a group. Dishes were packed full of flavour with lots of umami and accompaning sauces had a lot of thought put to them. You can tell that the chefs are well trained and the staff take their role seriously. It's really good value for money for the portion sizing and great to share. Our favourite dishes was the cabbage roe and the char siu. Its only time that the restaurant will be awarded chefs hats.
