Kuro - Atlantic City

Any destination, anywhere you go, visiting a sushi place is always on the list right This was the other place in Atlantic City. The presentation, the scallops, the lobster, the drinks and service were all spot on great ??Food: 5/5

One of the best dishes I had was Chilean sea bass. Miso eggplant was perfect and hot.Food timing was impeccable.Servers are very nice and informative of the different menu choices. Josh was the man!Get the whiskey flight and be mind blown of the variances between the 4 different types.Thanks again. So good we made another reservation for tonight! Can’t wait.And don’t forget mochi for dessert!Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to get in from hard rock lobby path.

This restaurant will have you dreaming about the flavor profiles and pairings presented in their dishes. I have only been to Kuro twice now and both times I was completely blown away by the food, drinks, AND service. The portions are perfect however the taste will have you wondering if you should order more! The staff was overall delightful, a few members of the kitchen even came out and brought some of our dishes over. I am still trying to process all of the flavors. If you don’t have room for dessert after, trust me STILL GET IT. Our server, Sean was a delight. He held the perfect balance of conversation and appropriate space to allow us to enjoy our meal. He also encouraged us to explore different menu options. This was the best dinner I’ve had in a long time PLEASE GO TO KURO!

We were all set to go to Docs Oyster House for an anticipated great seafood dinner. Literally as we’re turning into the valet, I see I made the reservation for Docs Oyster Bar in New York! How the hell did I manage that?? AI has a long way to go, else it would have realized I was trying to go from home to New York to Atlantic City in a matter of about two hours.So we wound up here. Despite the run-of-the-mill rye and could have used a touch more of it, our Manhattans were a good start with different flavors that slid across your tongue. Tapas-style shrimp tempura maki and rib eye yakatori were a good start; the rib eye was melt in your mouth tender and the maki presented a range of flavor and textures. I wasn’t crazy about the Chilean sea bass entree, that’s just my palate and not the preparation as the wife liked it; I thought it was sweet and the sauce covered up the fish to much. I preferred the lobster instead, where the lobster was complimented by a unique butter and an array of veggies. I can't rate the food a 3.80, so 4 stars it is.Overpriced casino restaurant as expected, but it did provide good food and a nice experience with top-notch service from Jennifer. When I ordered a Kujira 12 year for dessert, we had a quick exchange on Japanese whiskey (primed from our earlier exchange on Manhattans), and how this was the bartender’s, who is a whisky geek, favorite. She walks away and the next thing we knew, the bartender was at our table telling us the story of this excellent whisky.We didn’t miss Docs.

The food is usually very good but we had the worst service ever our past visit. We had reservations. We were shoved into a corner and there were plenty of seats open. Went up to asked to be moved, well we were and it continued to go down hill. We waited over 20 minutes for someone to come over, then another 20 minutes for drinks. We would have left but we were seeing a show and short for time as it was since the service was so poor. Our food came out the same time our server was brining the drinks. Not sure why it was like this but it was not overly crowded and it seemed more servers were chatting in the back then helping customers. Food is good, limited menu. They need to try to rotate items once in a while. Not sure we will be back any time soon due to the very poor service.
