Japanese Restaurant Goku

My family and I wanted to grab a Japanese dinner yesterday night, and we walked into this place. No plans to do so, but it turned out to be surprisingly good. The food is good, and service is great despite it being a full house, and the place has ample space enough for ambience. You know you're getting authentic Japanese food when you see Japanese families sitting down to eat at the same place, and are greeted by Japanese staff... Perhaps the only gripe we had was with the stir-fried beef intestines. They were tough as nails, and almost impossible to bite through, and I didn't really care for the Mala-like taste of the dish...and this is the reason for my 4-star rating.

May 2022: Authentic little Japanese restaurant. Service was prompt and food was homemade. Felt the portion size was small vs the price. The tables around us seemed to be there for the all u can eat buffet. Generally was a good experience. There were a number of walk-ins with no reservations (same as us) and yet there was table available, though if it’s a gathering of such, best to make reservations.

Hearty Japanese fare that's value for money! We came at 1.30pm and barely just got a seat. The lunch sets came with various side dishes, and the miso soup was loaded with vegetables. Grilled mackarel was de-boned and balanced with crispy skin, tender meat, and lightly salted taste. The stir fry pork kimchi vegetables was okay, but the serving size was massive. Will definitely be back to try other dishes!
