Kura Revolving Sushi Bar, Japanese conveyor belt restaurant in Doraville, United States.
Kura Revolving Sushi Bar is a Japanese restaurant in Doraville, Georgia, where sushi and other Japanese dishes are served via a two-tier conveyor belt system built into the dining room. Plates travel through the room on a looped track, passing every table so guests can pick what they want directly from the belt.
The company behind Kura was founded in Japan in 1977, built around the idea of making sushi affordable by using a conveyor belt instead of table service. The first US location opened in 2009, and the Doraville restaurant is part of the brand's steady expansion across the country.
At Kura, the act of choosing food is part of the meal itself, since plates pass in front of you and you grab what appeals to you. This format comes from a long tradition in Japan of making sushi accessible and informal, without tableside service.
The restaurant sits on Peachtree Road in Doraville and is open most days, with longer hours on weekends. Ordering is done at the table through a touchscreen, so you can go at your own pace without needing to flag down a server.
After finishing a set number of plates, guests can play a short digital game on the table screen that offers a chance to win a small prize, usually a capsule toy dispensed right at the table. This game mechanic is a nod to Japan's game culture and makes the end of the meal feel different from a typical restaurant.
