Kura Revolving Sushi Bar - Torrance


Kura on the outside, my beloved Kula on the inside with a single letter changed.

Not so much. With the dropping of the "L" came the dropping of the quality, and with the addition of the "R" came the addition of 50 cents to the price of every plate.


The pieces of fish are slightly smaller and not too mention thinner. The Eel barely covers the rice anymore. 


The Conch is really small... 



And the Octopus got tougher.


Still love the Grilled Scallops with Mayo but size is still an issue. 


The Salmon stayed similar, and I do appreciate that it's consistently delicious. 

The rolls have also gotten smaller. The Tuna Crispy Rice is still crispy and fun-sized, but the caterpillar roll is a joke.


The thing that bothers me most is that the freshness is acceptable but no longer exceptional. In more particular and unforgiving items like the Scallop, this is becoming more apparent. Definitely better than edible and in no way fishy yet, but it only has another notch or two before it takes a perilous fall. 


At least the Hokkaido Tart is still full of sweet custard goodness... 

I still love the sushi, and the price is hard to beat. The selection is complete, and I understand that these people have a business to run. I won't stay away for long, but I do think twice about coming here now.
