![Zomato]( "Recensione")
Have always walked past and wanted to make a booking at this fancy looking Japanese restaurant in Parnell. Finally took the opportunity this evening. First celebratory meal post lockdown number 2.
Liked:
1. Nice intimate fine dining ambience inside compared to the usual Japanese isakaya joints.
2. Good portions, all well prepared and lovely quality. However everything came all at once. We would have preferred a slightly staggered service so there was more time to savor each dish without it all getting cold too quickly.
3. Best dish was the beef tataki. Excellent flavour and great if you like beef tartar as the beef is sliced and served sashimi style. Very very good one to try!
4. Had a sake and a Sapporo to complete the meal with a matcha ice cream and a fried banana with vanilla ice cream. I would pass on the banana dessert as the banana was not ripe and the tempura coating was less than the crispy I would normally expect.
Otherwise a lovely place for a nice intimate quality Japanese meal in upmarket Parnell. Will definitely head back again dad their menu is fairly extensive.

Went here for a casual date night
Loved the ambiance
We ordered very non-adventurous, not even purely japanese cuisine. But all tasted good, although not above and beyond the usual katsu, karaage, tofu and takoyaki you get on cheaper shops. I suppose you pay for the presentation as well (spectacular in that area) and the place... the experience.
Yes, we will be back.
Came in with a group of 6 for a birthday. Lovely staff and beautiful wee key chain gift and free dessert with candle for birthday girl as well as a group photo which was emailed to me! Very nice touch. We ordered a number of things, spider roll, spicy tuna roll, agudashi tofu, soft shell crab, karage chicken, beef tatiki and pork belly. All food was fantastic though I found the portion sizes were small and expensive in comparison to other Japanese restaurants. Thank you 😊
