Average quality of food, poor service, extra long menu difficult to choose from. And of course a fantastic thing: you can enjoy japanese, thai menu and also traditional Ukrainian cuisine. They seem to know how to cook everything. More

This is a nice restaurant where to find good food with a good price. During the evening time the service is really really slow . Good variety of sushi with good taste! More

Not very cheap but tasty. As for me sushi has to be with smaller rise-ball and with bigger piece of fish. :) More

Murakami is a middle end sushi place In Kyiv. Having been to most of it's local competitors I can definitely vouch for murakami as the best price quality ratio. The service is always good, food is quick and tasty and good locations as well. More

If you like to eat Sushi and smoke at the same time shisha, then that's the place. The menu has Sushi, Ukranian and Thai food and has even a page for ordering cigarettes and shisha tobacco. There are big screens with music videos emitting loud hip hop music. It makes no difference if you select the smoking or non- smoking... More

There are several locations. Some are pretty bad (like the one on Zolotiye Vorota). The best one, and the one i would suggest, is on Bul Shevchenko in the Europa Plaza business center, next to Maserati. In short, for inexpensive sushi, with good service and a nice atmosphere of young attractive Kievans, its a good call. Get a reservation for... More

Randomly happened by and saw a bento box. 20 minutes later I was lunching on my own Alaskan roll. Worth a trip even for a sushi snob. More

Murakami has many braches in Kiev. Our favorite is the small one next to Golden gate metro. Variety is good, food is fresh, they have nicely priced sets for sushi and sashimi. Better than yakatoriya, sushiya, planetary sushi or evrasia. Not super fancy, but tasty, decent and affordable. More

Sushi is as you will soon realise ubiquitous in Kiev. This modern chain is at least dedicated to the cuisine, rather than the 'sushi with French or Italian food' that you find in many other pricier restaurants. Murakami is a reasonably priced offering aimed at locals as well as visitors, a good standby and much better than the fast food... More
