This fantastic small bar serves great Japanese food, and the chicken dish I had was incredibly juicy and well-priced. The drinks I sampled were also fantastic and reasonably priced, with cocktails starting at just $10. The Hot buttered rum was the perfect drink to warm up on a cold day. The ambiance is hip, with cool projections on the walls, and in the evenings they frequently feature DJs and occasionally live acts. Overall, it is a great place and I will definitely be returning.

The restaurant has wonderful food, enjoyable music, and a fantastic atmosphere. The bar has a trendy vibe and a great aesthetic. The food is amazing and reasonably priced. My partner and I shared some JFK and 3 half plates and were impressed with the flavors of everything. We left feeling satisfied. A pint of Lager during happy hour was $7 and was perfect!

The atmosphere at this restaurant is perfect for a late night meeting. The ramen was amazing with a complex flavor. I ordered plum sake but unfortunately they did not serve it warm, which was disappointing.

A go-to place for our team lunches. Been a fan of their chicken parmy for years. The Japanese Nachos are also terrific. Love the atmosphere, the music, the cool visuals and the eclectic layout of the pub.

What a gem of a place is The Horse Bazzar in Little Lonsdale Street its a cozy bar and restaurant, our band Sam Square did a gig here recently and it boasted impressive decor and lighting the wrap around wall with a projector running continuous themes was really cool! Bar staff were friendly and caring about customers. I decided to try the Japanese menu. Sashimi Salmon on a bed of rice came with (of course) soy sauce and wasabi plus ginger and some rocket with aoli and a fresh tomato pesto style puree. Just perfectly balanced incredibly tasty and fresher than Tom Cruise in Top Gun if i could rate it 6 stars I wouldn't hesitate and at 16 bucks its very underpriced for what it is. Could not fault it i'm going to go back as a regular customer. The tap beer was excellent and icy cold. Thanks Horse Bazzar for a memorable night out!
