KoKoLo Donburi - KoKoRo

Visited this restaurant as I was looking for a good Japanese curry eatery while in Alameda, the menu has a good amount of selections from appetizers to mains. I ordered a tonkatsu curry bowl, the katsu was on point, meat was tender and hearty in portion, good to share if you want a light meal but plentiful for a serving. The curry for me was on the lighter side, I prefer it a bit more darker and bold in flavor, it is what I am used to. I look forward to trying a different dish next time. But overall, this place has a nice vibe to it, Daniel was great and super hospitable.

First off, big kudos to the manager Daniel for giving us his recommendations as our first choice for breakfast was busy as hell. Turned out some Katsu Curry was what the doctor ordered! The pork was super tender and the breading maintained its texture even under all that yummy curry sauce. We even got the sample a takoyaki, which are these little fried balls of squid served with this amazing sauce, topped with nori and bonino flakes... And they were just utterly to die for; super light, crispy, and full of freshness. It's may be a little bit spendy, but its definitely worth it!

Sucks, tried to come here twice always closed. Note says back from break at 330pm, it's 1156am, they open at 1130am...go walnut creek, that location is awesome!!!

From the moment you walk in the door, the vibe is welcoming and chill. I ordered the katsu curry don and it fulfilled my craving! Danny, the manager, took good care of me and all the customers present. Good food, good service, good people.

I came here some years ago and my card declined while with a group of friends. The gentlemen behind the counter gave me the meal anyways. I will never forget that. When I go, I make sure to leave a $20 tip because of how generous he was in my time of need. Thank You sir.

The food is just okay which is pretty disappointing considering how lovely the interior of the restaurant is. The chicken katsu don curry bowl wasn't very flavorful.

I had the chicken wings and the chicken katsu curry. It was really good and I enjoyed it

Traditional Japanese fare. I was surprised to see unagi on the menu… that says a lot about the quality of their kitchen as sea urchin gets spoiled very quickly and requires a lot of high maintenance to remain fresh. I didn’t try it myself, but the chicken donburi and takoyako were both very good. I also tried the imported Citrus drink that was also tasty. I don’t know if it was my mind, but the rice seemed to have some sort of very slight lavender aftertaste to it which was …interesting …overall good experience.
