We came here for a weekday lunch. It was a challenge to find parking. Our experience: a-the food comes when ready so prepare to share everything or suffer waiting for yours while everyone else gets theirs; b-there are fewer staff during lunch so prepare to be patient; c-portion sizes are highly variable but in general high value for money. We ordered a hamachi carpaccio (5 stars) which was a nice shareable appetizer. Then we each got a main plate: misoyaki butterfish (huge), hamachi kama (huge) and pork belly with scallops (mini). Oh, and in case you need a little starch to go with your fish or meat you can order a bowl of rice (huge). We shared 1 bowl of rice across the 3 of us.

Doraku at Kakaako is a beautiful, classy restaurant with a variety of menu items, made to cater to a variety of dietary needs and preferences. Chef Jigo made us some absolutely phenomenal house specialty rolls. Would highly recommend! The staff is friendly, and helpful.

Had dinner at Doraku tonight and we had such a great experience! The manager Micah, and our server Steffen were both so accommodating and made sure we were taken care of the entire time. My partner and I have been to Doraku a few times now, and the reason we keep coming back is because of the consistently great service and delicious food!!

We ordered calamari, oysters, grilled squid (so tender!) , hamachi, and garlic steak everything tasted amazing! What really stood out was how attentive both the manager and our server were, constantly checking in to make sure we had everything we needed.

Customer service matters more to me than anything else! And doraku always goes above and beyond. You can really tell they care about their guests and take pride in what they do. It’s rare these days to find a restaurant that delivers both great food and genuinely warm service but this place does it every time. We’ll definitely be back! I highly recommend this spot!!!!

I came here with a large group. The service was great and we had a really nice time. We ordered a ton of different things. The only reason im giving it a 4 is because my friend and I got sick that night following dinner so we think it was something we ate here unfortunately.

While I noted gluten free needs before coming and again upon arriving there were many mix ups. This is a serious issue for many and while I spoke about this multiple times during ordering and once items came out, I have to say this place is not somewhere I can come back to 2 orders came out not gluten free… and I’m paying for it.

Order inaccurate:
while we were told we were ordering 2 orders of 2 “pieces” of salmon sashimi they got the order wrong and we were slammed with a bill much much greater than what was expected. We did not eat the extra pieces of sashimi that erroneously came with the order but we still had to pay…

2 stars for the food: I will say the mushroom order & salmon carpaccio was good, but everything else had a strong taste of toxic, fragranced dish soap. (The natto rolls, the squid) I truly try to make the best of meals so I squeezed a lot of lemon and put salt on it.

Very disappointed & my guest and I felt unwell that evening and the morning after…

I had high hopes because reviews were promising but this was a let down to be quite honest!

The server did said she tried to communicate our needs but when we pointed out the salmon order was wrong she said “sorry” with no action to rectify her mistake.

Great place to eat! Sushi fresh, and it was really fun to watch the fried rice being made. Brownie tempura tasty, and kid friendly! It doesn’t guarantee how fast service is going to be, but I’d say about 10 min.

I don’t leave reviews really but man this was a terrible experience. Honestly since 2020, I’ve never had a great experience at Doraku. This particular time, tonight, we sat at the bar, and our waitress/bartender (colored contacts) did not make us feel welcome at all. Felt like a burden for us being there. Aside from that, her and another waitress were arguing about something, which just made the entire dinner awkward and stressful, and my day was already stressful enough. Sucks that we were looking forward to coming to enjoy a nice dinner and relax, however only got the opposite. The food did not taste fresh at all and the quality of it overall tasted junk. Very unfortunate I used to love this restaurant and the past 5-6 times I’ve had bad experiences, and then tonight just was the icing on the cake. Not coming back here again. I really hope a manager reads this and has a talk with their team. No customer should EVER hear employees arguing, especially at a restaurant. Very unprofessional.

Kobe sliders are top tier, they were so good I keep thinking about them. The tempura brownies with the vanilla ice cream were also amazing. I really enjoyed the lychee martini as well! Everyone here was super kind, and service was quick and efficient as well.
