We had dinner here on Aug. 25 with friends.The Yakitor Sampler was tasty and the serving sizes of the skewers were just right. The Mr. Kurosawa Roll was good, but it didn't really stand out.We should have passed on the Seafood Udon. Nothing great, just like eating your usual Pinoy pancit. The Japanese fusion carbonara on their menu looked much more interesting. We should have gotten that instead.We were at the restaurant at a busy time, dinner time on a Saturday night. But you'd expect that staff are trained for that. The orders were slow in coming and we needed to follow up several times before the food arrived.Would we come back? Maybe. They seem to have a few more interesting items on their menu worth trying out. But service needs to improve.

Surprisingly, the food was really quite good! Normally I would stay away from what looks like fusion restaurants because I prefer the more traditional Japanese restaurants. But my kuya wanted to try it because he got curious if the Kurosawa name in the restaurant was taken from the Japanese director’s name, hehehe.Anyway, so we ordered the Udon Soup, Dynamite Roll, Crunchy Tuna Roll, Katsudon, and the Meat Fried Rice, and everything was really quite good! The ambiance and the service are also good.

First time to try Mr. Kurosawa in Newport, despite the resto being there for a long time already. The menu is similar (if not the same) with Sumosam. We got crunchy maki, tofu chopchop (my Sumosam fave!), salmon wasabi and fried rice!
