Raku Izakaya

Actually I am not a sushi fan, but this one is amazing. I love all the food we were ordered in that night, also for The Wahyu beef taste was excellent!! Definitely will come back to this place again when we back to Orange. Everything (food, atmosphere, service) was lovely.

It took us a few attempts to get a booking here and we later understood why. The restaurant was bustling and heaving with popularity like a Tokyo metropolis. Enjoyed a terrific meal with tasty modern Japanese dishes. We started off with the Spicy edamame, Tempura veggies and Agedashi tofu. We then had the Nasu Dengaku which was their eggplant dish, Vegetable Sushi rolls and Teriyaki pan fried tofu. Washed the food down with a hot sake that warmed our insides and finished the meal off with a yummy Black sesame ice cream. Definitely worth the visit. Kudos

The food was incredible and plenty of it. The staff were attentive and we were seated and served quickly despite not having a reservation on Thursday lunch. It was very cold out and we were given soup almost immediately. Value for money was terrific. We had the Teriyaki Chicken Bento box.

3 🌟 to low 4 🌟 to high. I wish they did half stars The king fish Carpaccio was the high light for me. Fresh king fish just very vinegary The sushi roll was nice however a few things I noticed. The rice way to thick and heavy not as lite as iv had in other restaurant, made it very heavy. The salmon was nice just hard to taste exactly because so much sauce. The miso soup was very basic, Service is very good.

Quite honestly one of the best Japanese restaurant in Orange. I’m visiting Orange for work, and have already been to Raku a few times, twice for dinner and once for lunch. I’ve really enjoyed all the wagyu dishes and maki rolls. I didn’t quite like the seafood udon as much, as the seafood tasted a little blend in the way frozen seafood does. The service is really welcoming and genuine. I would definitely recommed Raku if you’re in Orange and craving Japanese 🙂

Great food and excellent service! Staff were incredible- so professional and exceptionally trained as if they work in a hatted restaurant. Amazing variety of food that is so fresh and such a modern take on Japanese food. So much fun and a gourmet night out!

If you’re in Orange, you need to make this one of your dining experiences. Brilliant food, great staff, not crowded. We recently went to Japan for 3 weeks and have been craving authentic Japanese food, this is it! I wish they were local to us. We had bento boxes for lunch earlier in the week, these were also amazing and the miso is some of the best I’ve tasted!

My partner and I come here every year to orange for work. The food and service was excellent! John greeted us and served us. Food was amazing ! I only took a few photos we also had the volcano roll and prawns. Highly recommend and will be back !
