A conveyor belt sushi restaurant chain is due to arrive in the Richmond region later this year.
Kura Revolving Sushi Bar has signed on to open a location at the Trader Joe’s-anchored Short Pump Station shopping center at 11301 W. Broad St.
Revolving sushi restaurants have a nontraditional setup that includes a conveyor belt containing plates of sushi passing by each table and seat, allowing guests to pick and choose different pieces of sushi as they go by.
Kura, which will be the first restaurant of revolving sushi restaurant in the Richmond region, is leasing a 3,200-square-foot space that had previously been home to Persis Indian Grill.
Kura touts itself as the largest revolving sushi restaurant chain in the country with more than 80 locations nationwide, though the company has around 600 restaurants across the globe.
