Tokoko

Came here quite a few times for sushi before the pandemic and it was nice. Went there today and the decor seemed a little different -mainly without the cuddly toys. It was still nice and cosy. I ordered an eel don as I wanted something warm and it was really delicious. If I had to be picky, a few grains of rice were quite hard/dry. Not sure if it's because of Covid, chopsticks and bowl were plastic. Would be nice to have proper tableware.

A must go.
Tonkotsu Ramen 10/10. Just perfect, authentic and delicious. Try adding to it black pepper or the Japanese mix of 7 spices that you will have to ask the staff to bring it to the table.
Fried gyozas, delicious with the proper gyoza sauce.
Fresh and tasteful delicious sushi with wasabi served apart so you can add as much as you want.
The staff is very gentle, hard-working and kind.

Good place for sushi and bubble tea, reasonably priced considering the quality. The ramen was a good portion, though I would consider the sushi the ‘main event’ as Tokoko

First time visiting after the lockdown and has changed little bit. Quality of foods were good and very impressed about customer services such as the staffs are very friendly and keep checking up on us.

Phoenix rolls were better than my expectations and definitely would like to order again next time. Tuna and squid were just average and mackerel got my attention which was worth to try. Not as good as the one I had in London but considering the price I was very happy about it as not many places even have mackerel as their sushi toppings. Perhaps the rice size could be reduced because the size of toppings were quite small.

Ramen was satisfied as well. Great taste of tonkotsu soup, very rich and deep flavour but the noodles were over cooked. Would’ve been much better if the noodles were less cooked and take out the corn as they just ruin the taste and rather put beansprout or eggs. However I would still order it again next time.

Unagi don was not too bad but could’ve been better. Quality of rice wasn’t perfect and put too much sauce as they got too salty at the end. Eel itself was soft and cooked well but should’ve cut before it’s served because I was struggling to divide into smaller pieces. Wouldn’t really order again considering the price.

Very disappointed for the fact that they still use disposable plates and cutlery even though I was eating in. At least should’ve gave me proper big spoon for the ramen noodles and plates rather than using lid of takeaway box.

Overall it was okay and willing to visit again to have some noodles and rolls. At the end of the meal they gave us korean seaweed snack and I think it’s a good idea so much appreciate that kind of overwhelming service.

Best Japanese restaurant in Cambridge! THE restaurant if me and my girlfriend ever fancy Japanese food. Cozy environment and very welcoming as always. Both the taste and portion of the food are far beyond average. Look at the salmon sashimi! About the same price but twice the size than other restaurants, so a worth try definitely.
A side note, do remember to bring cash with you.

Great sushi and price! I’ve ordered Tokoko’s Philadelphia maki set (£15.6) through Deliveroo for more than 10 times in the past year, and it is consistently delicious 🍣 I appreciate that it is vegetarian-friendly and have a few good vegetarian options. My vegetarian friend recommends the Vegetarian Californian roll futomaki (£5.8) because it has some crunchy bits inside. I’ve ordered salmon sashimi in the past and it’s quite fresh as well, though less filling than sushi for the same price. Moreover, the wasabi portion is generous, which is essential for the sushi experience! 😄

Fair. We may have been unlucky, but the fish on all of our sushi rolls had that bad fish smell and the rolls were so lightly rolled that they just fell apart. The spicy ramen had a good spice to it, which was nice but it lacked other flavors, which was surprising. The noodles and the pork belly in the ramen was excellent though. The bubble tea was good as well.

Dine in today. I was amazed by the freshness and quality of the food served as well as the friendliness of the staff. They gave good advice on food choices. I particularly enjoyed the bubble tea, it is one of the best I've had. The young man who made it was professional and friendly. I would definitely come back soon. I highly recommend this place.
