If you really have the urge to eat Japanese when you are visiting Hilton Head, Kurama is the best option -- among limited options. This version of Japanese is typical of small town restaurants where the menu has been adapted to the local clientele. It is not authentic Japanese and it is not comparable to the quality you will find... More

Over the past twenty + years, I've eated at Kuramas many times. It used to be where most of our extended family chose their birthday dinner outings. But it has been a number of years ago. Unfortunately, we went for Early Bird last month for my birthday dinner. The lights were not dimmed and I was nauseated by the years... More

We've been regulars at Kurama now for several years - we go there for dinner at the sushi bar regularly, and the hibachi grill is the regular place the family goes for birthday celebrations. Sushi Chef Yuki always greets you with a smile, although I think he inwardly cringes because he knows how much sushi we're going to order! You... More

Kuramas not only has incredible hibachi style dinig but their sushi ranks among our favorite. On our last visit we enjoyed the Wizard Roll and Softshell crab roll. The service is outstanding. We stop at Kuramas everytime we visit Hilton Head Island. If you try it you will return as well. More
