Kura Revolving Sushi Bar

Had a great experience! Went to this place Saturday night, during quite busy times. However all the staff were extremely helpful, especially our server Carlos! Was very fun to experience sushi on a conveyer belt for the the first time, and the server robots!

This was a fun experience for the family. We came here for an early celebration of my birthday. We mostly ordered from the menu and it was cool when the plate arrived on high speed on the top belt. After we got 15 plates, a prize came out of the mini vending toy machine on top of the belt. There is a robot that delivers drinks and soy sauce saucers. Our favorites are the sweet shrimp, Hokkaido scallops, and our daughter loves the salmon toro the most.

As a party of 2, we were seated about 10 minutes after our reservation. Service was slow due to there being a full restaurant, which can be improved on. It can take 15-20 minutes for an order to arrive, even if it was small. The conveyer belt was essentially useless since it travels in one direction, so if you sit near the second half of the conveyer belt, almost all dishes have been taken by customers ahead of you, which subtracts from the dining experience. One mistake happened where we ordered the snow crab hand roll but received the snow crab regular roll instead. My favorite dish was the tonkotsu ramen, although the ramen came in small portions. I wouldn’t recommend the American wagyu if you don’t enjoy rare beef, because it was cooked very rare. Overall, the portions seemed smaller

We made our way to the Kura Sushi in Rockville, MD, and somehow walked out having conquered 47 plates of sushi. Forty. Seven. The conveyor kept moving, and so did we. The kids have fallen in love with this place, “robot sushi,” as they call it. A few months ago they had never tried sushi before, and now it’s their go-to request whenever we’re in town. Their dad hadn’t touched sushi since his college days, but after watching the plates roll by today, even he decided to give it another shot. Verdict: he’s officially back on the sushi train. Elijah has taken on the sacred role of Plate Master collecting empty plates like trophies and feeding them into the slot for points. Every time that little machine dispensed a prize, he acted like he’d just unlocked a new level in life. Honestly, who ca

Love Kura Sushi! Affordable, great quality sushi, and such a fun experience overall. I love that they also do collabs — right now they’re doing a Sanrio collab and the prizes are absolutely adorable. You can get a random prize or just buy the one you want. I was REALLY hoping to get the Cinnamoroll bubble magnet, but it was sold out. Huge shoutout to Amanda, who was incredibly sweet and went out of her way to help me find one. She made my day. Thank you so much, Amanda!
