“ Delicious and well crafted sushi and ramen. They were popping on a rainy Saturday, but we still cozied up to the sushi bar and enjoyed quick friendly service. The Garlic Chip roll rocked my palate with super fresh chunks of yellowtail and albacore topped with crispy golden slice of garlic!!! And masago. My partner finishes a sm bowl of tonkotsu ramen with shoyu egg. The Kamu blend of house tea comes complimentary and is smooth and satisfying on a cold day. We’ll be back!!! ”
“ Stopped by because we heard the ramen was pretty darn good, and it was. The jalapeno poppers are a must if you’re into spicy food, they were pretty great. The sushi was also very good, fresh. We will be repeat customers, for sure. Staff was friendly and helpful with the outdoor heating. Cozy, cute and the outside seating is great. 3/1/24 They have redone part of their outdoor seating to include fireplaces and more heaters, which I appreciate because we love sitting outside. We have been going here for the last several years, typically at least once a month, sometimes more, and we absolutely love it if you have not tried the spot, and you were in the area, stop by! ”
“ Kuma was a real fun experience! I had the Yakisoba which I wish we had a picture of but I guess I ate it too fast. Servers were really pleasant and the food came out quickly. The itchy dragon roll was recommended and it did not disappoint. Kids were obviously stoked about the tempura batter dessert cake! Great ambience and I would recommend for a nice family dinner/date night or just a nice meal with a friend. ”
“ Kuma is one of my favorite places to dine. The food is always tasty and the service and atmosphere is great. Highly recommend a visit for authentic ramen as well as sushi etc. Can’t say enough good things about this place. ”
“ My son and I likes this place, we are not from this atea but we would purposely drive 45mins (one way) just to enjoy the food here. We've been here numerous times, food is alway great, fresh and flavorful, service is inconsistent, I gave 5 stars based on our last visit, and majority of our visit I would say can be 4.5. It is a nice little place to enjoy food and company, special on their outside seating. ”
“ If you are visiting Central Coast, take a drive to Montana de Oro State Park for one of the most beautiful place (off the beaten path) for a visit then on the way back stop to Kuma Sushi for lunch or dinner in Los Osos. We have always love their ramens but this time we ordered the yellow tail collars (not on the menu and you have to ask). First time for us and OMG - t's the best thing ever! Fish collars are a piece of fish that comes from along the clavicle, the muscle that we call the collarbone. The chef said he coated them in a light seasoning and fried them. They were super crunchy, moist with so much meat. We also had our special sushi rolls with the fish. Love this little Kuma restaurant and thank you chef! ”
“ We came for the 20 bowl & roll combo and were blown away. He got the spicy ramen with a fried egg & firecracker roll, I got the beef teriyaki & garlic chip roll. All were incredibly delicious. Lick the plate delicious! ”
“ Loved it. They made us feel so special with the extra dessert for my husband and my birthday. The sushi was on point and not fishy. It tasted amazing. Definitely coming back again. Thank you guys. All the rolls were outstanding. ”
