Excellent
Delicious food. Great service.
We did the Omakase menu for dinner - perfect amount of food and it was all delish. Couldn’t fault any of it
One of the best Japanese restaurants I’ve been to. The sashimi tacos were a standout but all of the food was super tasty. Great service & selection of drinks topped off a great night out
We have been to this Japanese restaurant many times and the food is delicious with excellent service. The food is exciting Japanese and is always beautifully presented and tastes awesome. Well worth the visit for Japanese food and with a great selection of drinks available.
The food was refined and well presented. Service attention was excellent.
Food was great and very well priced! Restaurant was very busy and food came out a bit slow but we still had a great time regardless.
The food had a few nice dishes but for the price it was OK. The service overall was also OK.. they forgot an item from the degustation menu - we ordered a few extra plates- and also our drinks(; one of the plates took a long time to come out despite asking the staff on 3 seperate occasions and each time to be told it’s almost done (took a further 25 min from when 1st asked a plate of prawns). Then there was a large table that came late (also had the degustation menu) and to catch up our meals coming our were delayed.
Nice Japanese food. Excellent service.
Absolutely wonderful food from the cold sashimi to the waghu meat. We had the set menu at $70-00 each. Perfect size for us - didn’t have us leaving hungry or over full
Food was wonderful. Love the new bar area.
Amazing food, beautifully prepared and arranged. The staff are all incredibly friendly and professional. Very clean venue. Will definitely go again.
We where surprised that the initial service was inconsistent with meals arriving before drinks. Until we asked where was the drinks which then mostly came out on time (sake package) . The food was amazing and due to the staffing changes and covid reshuffling, this we hope runs smother than when we visited. It’s is well worth trying and the food is very good. I think we hit a bad night
Good food and excellent service
Delicious food. Every dish was a winner.
This restaurant has a great ambiance with lovely and superb staff and delectable, beautifully presented meal. Would definitely recommend and can't wait to come back!
The service was just amazing. The staff are so professional and well trained. The seafood was amazing. I found the meat was overly seasoned though. I would definitely recommend.
Would visit again
Love the selection of whisky and sake
Outstanding and thoroughly enjoyable evening. Food and service 2nd to none!
Amounts served too small. The lamb was too fatty and the meat was too tough to eat .
