We go every year to this restaurant and it is consistently good. the decor is ordinary but the great food and the friendly service make up for any lack in the ambience. One can sit at a bar, have the tasting menu or the pre-show meal as well as the a la carte. We ate a la carte and loved... More

We made a last minute reservation for my DH's birthday. The food was great and the service impeccable. We had a combination of dishes from typical nigiri, to a duck dish and an eggplant with miso. All delicious. We are soooo coming back!!!!! More

Have been here a few times now. While the experience and decor itself don't feel particular fancy or upmarket the traditional japanese cuisine definitely is. Whether it's cod or Wagyu, they always serve up tasty traditional dishes along with some of the best sashimi around. it's better to go on a night where the menu is not set like Valentines... More

I often chooses Azuma (a 1 hat restaurant) for special occasion. This time we have an opera to watch at 730 pm at Opera House and I thought I tried their pre-show menu and I was not disappointed. The service was the usual excellence in standard. Pre-show menu has a wide range of selections and they were perfectly cooked and... More

This restaurant adjoins on its exterior a take-away Japanese that functions during office hours and most particularly during lunch. I am not aware whether the owners/management are the same. Why mention it? Well, because the quality of that cheap take away where I eat at least twice a week was in my honest opinion far better than its internally and... More

Catering to the bankers ans lawyers of Sydney, this is a simple but perfectly formed Japanese restraunt. A late Monday night meal of sushi, sahimi and tempura was composed of lovely quality ingredients, nicely presented and served in an attentative manner. Quality. More

The staff rang me again that afternoon to confirm reservation. When we arrived at the restaurant, mum was suprised that there was a birthday card sitting on our table (with her name written on...

As Japanese food is as ubiquitous as ever, it was interesting to try fine dining Japanese fare in a restaurant environment. We had the ten-course Omakase degustation, which mainly consisted of traditional Japanese food (except the desserts, but we'll come to that later). There were two courses which were foreign to me - the homemade potato jelly and the Chawan-mushi;... More
