Cozy ambiance which is pretty nice for a hangout chit-chat session with a friend or two :)
A glimpse of the menu :)
& here's some dishes that we've tried.
Tamagoyaki with pickled ginger: slightly chilled omelets with nice hint of sweetness.

Unagi Kabayaki Zen: Aromatic unagi with sweet sauce, too bad they’re only 4 thin slices in total. -.-

Most of the Rakuzen
reviews available online claim that this is a restaurant which serves
delightful Japanese cuisine with value-for-money proposition. After a try out,
personally I do agree with those review to a certain extend.. Yes most of the
food here are good if not decent, however there aren’t any outstanding dish to
be remembered & personally I felt that most of the àla-carte items seems to
be a bit inadequate in both quantity & quality when it comes to the
content/price perspective.
However despite the
slightly pricey menu the restaurant do have some wonderfully decorated dining
area which is attractive & warm, and they do serves their customers well, lovely intimate service would be an appropriate description
here. So a solid 10 for Rakuzen in providing a welcoming & homely dining
environment. Another thoughtful thing at Rakuzen is that they provide bottomless green tea on the house, a big thumb up for such generous gesture b^^d
In short, among the
massive amount of Japanese restaurant available in KL, Rakuzen @ Publika with
its consistency in food quality, impeccable presentation & excellent interior
design will be a nice option for consideration if you are searching for some
delightful Japanese cuisine around Solaris Dutamas.
