The staff are lovely and the food is really tasty, with decent portions for the price. But their toilets are always blocked off in the evenings and there's next to nothing available even over 2 hours before they're due to close. I understand if you're going in just before they shut but we went in at half 4 (they close at 7) and half their usual stuff wasn't available. 3 times I've gone in and their accessible toilet was blocked off. Just some things that could do with improving.

I’ve visited Kokoros several times, and each experience has been great. The food is outstanding, consistently delivering delicious flavors that keep me coming back for more. The staff is also good at what they do, making every visit enjoyable. The only drawback is the limited seating capacity. While I appreciate the cozy atmosphere, additional seating options for larger groups would be a nice improvement. Despite this, I highly recommend Kokoros for anyone looking for fantastic food.

Disappointing Experience at Kokoro Food Uxbridge I ordered a large box and specifically asked for fewer noodles. Instead of adjusting only the noodles, they gave me a smaller portion of chicken as well—much less than what they normally serve. To make matters worse, I was charged for two toppings of chicken but didn’t even get the amount for one! It was really disappointing to pay around £11 for what felt like a meal smaller than their usual small box. Definitely not worth the price.

My secret get away with the hubby. We love it. The food is excellent amd the staff are polite and kind. No faults. Hope the local authority and council can preserve this place to never close.

5 star - Reasonably priced, well respected staff, perfect portions, simple, easy going, quick efficient- i can not complain and you wont be disappointed about the food. As a Connoisseur, Food is subjective - so it depends on ur taste and ur spices. Don't take for my word - try it. I wish I took a pic of what I eat but I dug in straight- if I come again (most likely I will) will date this with another pic.

Undoubtedly this is one of the best places to eat in Uxbridge, freshly prepared and good value for money. My favourites are salmon teriyaki with rice, chicken curry and rice and the Spicy tofu curry and rice. HOWEVER on many occasions they fill the large pots entirely with rice and very little toppings or curry. Today I had the beef and they filled the entire pot with rice. I basically paid £10 for rice. Disappointed with the service today! The service varies based on who serves you and their mood so be careful and don’t be afraid to complain. I would have complained but it was a takeaway and I only realised when I got home.

Food is good and matches the price. Food is premade and microwaved in front of you. I like how they offer different portion sizes so everyone can go away not feeling hungry and reduce food waste. The large portion is really good when you’re hungry!

Tried Takeaway, heard a lot about the Chicken Katsu Curry . Hence ordered the same, The quantity justified the Price charged for the Said item and was totally worth it . i tried the chicken katsu curry with noodles and highly recommend the same alongside tired the Deep Fried prawns which were too oily and tasted Oki oki aswell. They also had Dorayakis in custard and Chocolate filled which are amazing 5/5

It is supposed to close at 9pm. We went at 8.15 and most choices were unavailable. We ordered what was left and sat down while staff were already sweeping up. At 8.25 staff started putting chairs up on tables and vacuuming. This made us feel very unwelcome, as if they wanted to get rid of us. Will not be going back.

Love their Katsu chicken and rice and that s what I mostly order from here. I find it better than Wagamama. I also like their sweet chilly chicken and wish they could make it just a little less sweet and a little more spicy. It s good nevertheless

Kokoro is a delightful Japanese restaurant that hits the spot when youre craving a quick and satisfying meal. The staff here are always welcoming and eager to accommodate your needs. While the menu selection may be somewhat limited, the impeccable quality and generous portions more than compensate for it. Every visit leaves me feeling content and fully satisfied.

I was hoping for much more. Sadly theres a very limited choice here and all the best Japanese dishes advertised on the website are not available. Food wasnt great and didnt feel fresh especially Katsu chicken. Gyoza dumplings were good but sweet and sour chicken was very gooey and mostly just terribly sweet. I really wish this place was better serving Udon and Teryaki as well as some seafood.

December 23, 2023

I ve been here previously and the food is delicious. However today I left without getting any food. The staff were unfriendly and unhelpful. I waited in line for almost five minutes and whilst some were serving food, not one acknowledged I was waiting. Now even after this I was still prepared to stay however what I assume was a Deliveroo/Uber Eats etc Driver walked in and one of the staff let him know it d just be a few minutes. I m not certain why they acknowledged him but not me. It was incredibly poor service and I left because of it.

Loved the food, I had a sweet chilli chicken bowl which was super tasty and nicely spicy. The price was very reasonable at £7.75. Located right in the middle of the busy town centre I would expect this place to be a little bit busier, maybe it was quiet as it was only midday. I recommend trying this place.

Have been ordering from this kokoro for a few years, the food is always nice, but inconsistent, some days its too spicy, not spicy, too salty, or bland. Some other Kokoros Ive been to are also inconsistent. The sushi is usually nicer. Nice service and staff and good area to eat.

This particular Kokoro is the very first one I have been to, I have visited others in the past. However, this joint have always been super friendly and always load their tubs up with food. I find their portions to be massive and can last most people to be their lunch and left overs to be dinner, making it great value. I go for the mixed option with their katsu chicken curry and their spicy chicken curry as well, with rice. It tastes fantastic and is guaranteed to make you full. I would highly recommend this place! The only downside is that the atmosphere can fluctuate, sometimes it could just be yourself in store which can be awkward when eating, however, this is rare since the store usually has quite a few people visiting it.

I came to kokoro today at 8:20 and the employee refused to make me sit even though they are supposed to close at 8:30, but thats ok we still took our food for takeaway, the employee served 2 customers before us even though we ordered before them. Other than all of that the employee forgot to put the portion of shrimps and kept just one shrimp instead. The noodles used in yhe food isnt the same as the usual kokoro food, im a regular customer and i come to this shop every week but todays experience was a disaster and a disappointment.

★★

December 23, 2023

I felt a little strange eating here as the 2 staff seemed afraid, no eye contact, no communication at all throughout our orders. The dining area is nice, so 3 stars for that. I managed to eat 2 spoons of the spicy tofu noodles. I found the found pretty bland, not spicy and mediocre. Will not eat here here again.

I really like the sushi from Kokoro, the Mini Maki Delight is my favourite sushi box, but have tried quite a few and all are good. (Photo is from take away order, combination of boxes and plated at home and take away Mini Maki box) The service is fine and usually pretty fast and polite. Cons: once they run out of sushi sets that s it, so there have been times where I haven t been able to get anything. Also, if you dine in, tables seem to stay dirty for quite a long time.

Do not eat the hot food here. It thought I would try it for the first time and I noticed straight away that the chicken looked and tasted weird. It was grey and stringy inside.

Their Chicken Katsu Curry is one of the best out there. They are very generous with the serving however the price can be a little pricey (nearly £9 for the Medium Size).

Kokora are the only restaurant who only offer 20p nhs discount. Shocking amount of discount offered when they can easily afford to offer 10/20% like other restaurants do. No more kokora for me then
