Description

Nestled in a cozy corner, this restaurant offers an authentic taste of Japan through a carefully curated fixed menu. Diners praise the standout tempura and fresh ingredients, with highlights including crispy tempura and rich wagyu teriyaki. While service can be slow and the dining experience slightly marred by questionable professionalism at peak times, the overall quality of food keeps patrons returning. The intimate space, limited seating, and monthly menu changes add to the charm. For those seeking a special Japanese culinary experience, this venue is worth a visit, but reservations are highly recommended.

This place visited 2x, very unconventional restaurants for this type of conceptual restaurant 1. times the fixed menu price had something above the average. nothing special than fresh. was sat with strange but general formalities? and ethic (in the beginning to finish) for this type dining room questionable professionality 2. once, had the karage set?, miso and reis, but no edamame?

Why have I recently discovered this place? amazing authentic experience of people who really know their Japanese cuisine. I didn't try their dinner menu, but my gott, they can get so much worth out of their lunches they can get a rice bowl for about $25 with mistsuppe. I speak of crispy, golden tempura with onsenei. I'm talking about freshly cut Aburi salmon on their rice. I speak of wagyu teriyaki pieces! I'm obsessed here. bring me back to japan please book them before they come in, they are really small in the room.

Authentic Japanese food in a cozy atmosphere. best tempura in perth even better than the expensive somewhere in a hotel that I understand tempura cooking is technical to make it crispy outside, soft inside and not oily. sashimi slices were thin, but pretty good. just come here because of the tempura and you will be happy

The second time, I ordered the karage set with rice, but was disappointed to find that it did not come with edamame. The price was average, but still felt a bit high for what was offered.

I recently stumbled upon this place and am so glad I did. The authentic Japanese cuisine served here is incredible. While I didn't get to try their dinner menu, their lunch options are definitely worth it. You can get a rice bowl with miso soup for around $25 and the dishes are amazing. From crispy tempura to fresh Aburi salmon, and wagyu teriyaki, everything is delicious. I am obsessed with this place and it makes me feel like I'm back in Japan. Make sure to book a table in advance as the restaurant is quite small. Overall, a fantastic experience!
