Really good food and drinks. Staff is super nice and accommodating! A bit on the pricy side, but totally worth it :)

Just a super memorable random Wednesday night at Ku's. We arrived early but the staff was very chill and recommended all the right drinks (Sake) to start and meal (the chef's three-course option). Wonderfully fresh oysters to get started and, since we were into it, one more 10-piece sushi dish. What can I say? All top notch dishes. I felt like I was back in Japan (like I was 2 months ago)!

Food and its presentation was awesome. Interiors like being in Japan. Yet - when crowded very noisy. Strongly recommend to wine and dine!

Although service was good... I found this place by the good food ratings and that's not the case, Every dish we had was more than underwhelming. The edamame was cold, not salted enough - potstickers deep fried and not fresh. both rolls we received had the same ingredients just presented a different way (same underwhelming taste). They did not course it correctly and brought everything out too close together. If you are wanting an authentic restaurant I would pass on this place. that being said - staff was nice.

I am loathe to leave a positive review because I love this place and it's hard to get a seat. But, they deserve the praise. The cocktails are excellent and the food is always delish.

The food is amazing, the service as well. Marta was super nice and friendly. It was such a great experience that I went twice during my 3 day trip. Best sushi in AMS. I will come back again.

Not as good as I was used to, I decided to visit Ku kitchen since I haven’t for a couple of years. It was a bit disappointing, especially the service. The table arrangment inside the restaurant is very impractical and too close/narrow with neighbouring tables. The music isnide is a bit generic. Staff isn’t accomodating when you ask for a different table and doesn’t offer to take your coats. Summarized: mediocre

Our new favourite restaurant in Amsterdam, great service and the best sushi we've had anywhere in the world. If I could have stayed longer I would have ordered another portion of the Aburi Sweet Miso Salmon. We will be back for sure.

A great little sushi place with other choices as well. We thought the California rolls were unique with a fried exterior, the sashimi & other maki was also fresh & delicious. Great service & a fun, lively atmosphere. I recommend for a delicious meal.

Food and cocktails were great. The table was too near the kitchen, almost inside, and that might me the only thing I’d change. But everything else was really good.

My daughter’s 21st birthday, I let the restaurant know but didn’t get a nice table, service was average and nothing at all to acknowledge the big occasion even though it was a Tuesday night so not rushed off their feet. Food was really good but not the place to go for anything above and beyond unfortunately in terms of service
