First time dining here and I was surprised and glad at how much portions I got from my meal and how excellent it tasted. I’ve traveled to Japan and have had pork Tonkatsu and this was so delicious. Rivals that for sure. And the price wasn’t bad. 16 dollars or so for this entire meal. The atmosphere was nice as well, you have local soccer teams being played on the television sets and it was nicely furnished. Staff working was A++++

Kokoro is one of my favorite restaurants in Salinas! I've only had great experiences here as the wait staff is always friendly and attentive. My favorite is chicken katsu and the California roll but honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on their menu.

This is one of my favorite sushi restaurants in Monterey County! They have great benito lunch boxes, but I had to have this yesterday, the spider roll. So good!!

We’ve ordered from here during the pandemic and the food is great. Went into the restaurant for the first time about a month ago and was extremely surprised. It was even better! Needless to say, we went back again 3 days ago. Excellent. The service and the food. My ONLY issue is the tiny amount of wasabi we were given. Even when I asked for extra it was a small amount. Not a big deal and I understand a lot of people probably won’t use what’s given. I’ve learned now to always ask for extra wasabi when I order.I love this place.

Pleasantly surprised with the quality of fish here. They had a lot of the classic rolls along with some creative spins on rolls. The garlic edamame was absolutely delicious! Service was great also. I would come back.

Hands down the best udon soup I have had in my 60 years on this planet. No exaggeration. They're mixed fried rice with pork, chicken, shrimp is out of control. Their sushi is fresh and tasty. This is by far my husband and my favorite sushi restaurant on the Monterey peninsula or.. I suggest you run. Don't walk to Kokoro sushi

Passing through and googled some sushi spots picked this place because of the reviews and pics and it didn’t disappoint. I got the crispy rice and rainbow roll and my friend got the sashimi salad and it was all 10/10. Sushi is melt in your mouth and so fresh.

This place is always packed and for a very good reason! The sushi here is pretty great. I would recommend the spicy garlic edamame: although it will leave you wishing for some mints jajja it’s 100% worth it. My group always orders two. It’s that good. I also like their deep fried rolls. I believe the one I pictured below is the Las Vegas one. They are pretty busy so just be mindful. Great place and centrally located to the “night life” of Salinas so my friends and I were able to grab a drink a street over after we had dinner here.
