Warakuya Japanese Restaurant

Some hits, some surprises and generous portions all around.

🐟 Salmon Skin
Ultra crispy, like the kind you’d find in snack packs. Comes with a mayo dip that adds a creamy, tangy contrast. Great starter, especially if you like your crunch loud 》RM13.90

🦪 Kaki Furai
Juicy inside, golden outside. Not too oily and the lemon wedge helps cut through the richness 》RM21.90

🐌 Escargot Miso Yaki
The snails are tender and the miso glaze adds a deep, savoury punch 》RM20.90

🦑 Surumi Ika Shio Yaki
Nicely charred, lightly salted and chewy in a good way. Simple, clean and great 》RM21.90

🪼Chuka Kurage
Light seasoning and not too sweet. A good crunchy and refreshing break between heavier dishes 》RM13.90

🍣 Kani Karage Maki
Massive crab stick sushi rolls topped with tobiko, crunchy tempura and bonito flakes. Messy and satisfying 》RM26.90

Smooth custard, fresh prawn and ikura for that umami pop. Mushroom slice tucked in as expected. Nothing to shout about but it does the job if you’re after something warm to start 》RM18.90

Thick cuts of salmon belly, crosshatched and sitting pretty on crushed ice. Ikura on top gave it that umami pop.

Super fresh, super buttery. Every bite was clean and rich, no weird aftertaste, just pure melt-in-your-mouth goodness 》RM31.90

This bowl was a full-on colour party. Thick cuts and super fresh slices of salmon, tuna, scallop, squid, swordfish, surf clam and prawn all laid out like a seafood parade. Ikura added that briny pop and the tamagoyaki came stamped with a little nice touch. Same mushroom rice as the salmon don and I’m still not over it 》RM40.90

Thick, fresh slices of salmon laid out like a fan, with ikura sitting pretty in the centre. Each bite was rich and briny in the best way. The rice wasn’t just a base. It had savoury mushroom bits mixed in that gave it an earthy depth. Beautifully plated, generously portioned and packed with flavour 》RM34.90

Seriously sucks. Diluted and overly sweet
