Dont be fooled by the look of rundown interior, this restaurant is the gem in artarmon, they served very fresh ingredients and the price was affordable too!!! We had chirashi rice, cant believe every each piece was really fresh and yum!Will be back soon!
Very humble tucked away little Japanese restaurant and that’s what I love. Delicious, warming food at a reasonable price – nothing pretentious or overly done. I absolutely ADORE their Takana fried rice. I used to go for dinners here as a child and I would only eat the Takana fried rice. I’ll be honest I haven’t yet tried their Kimchi fried rice which is odd as I love kimchi fried rice, but I can’t go past their Takana. Their other food is also delicious and a good size for price. Staff are friendly and the whole restaurant is very inclusive and together.
I had premium wagyu karubi, negi shio tan and harami for Yakiniku , Wagyu Kare rice with Tonkatsu. Salmon sashimiWagyu Kare Rice = Cheap and Okay.Tonkatsu = hard to chew.Negi Shio Tan = cutting is too bigHarami and Premium Wagyu Karubi = too expensive for a low grade australian wagyu beef.Salmon Sashimi = goodThe owner chef is quite friendly, the waitressess are cute, I’m not sure with the other foods but overall, I don’t recommend anyone to eat yakiniku in this restaurant as you can get a better beef than this for less than $20 at Kashiwa. For local Washoku around there, this might be a good one.Definitely not recommended for food lovers / bloggers
Lunch specials here are definitely value for money – especially a big claypot of the Hayashi Rice !A tomato based Japanese style beef stew with lots of beef pieces in it .On 2nd visit had the karaage set which was good but the Hayashi Rice wins by a mile for me.
Wakana is probably the best Japanese Yakiniku restaurant in the Artarmon-Chatswood area. The restaurant was not fancily decorated. Simple, humble and clean are the words that comes into my mind every time I dine here.I’ve tried their Yakiniku a few years before and I still remember how good and fresh the meat tasted! Today I went to have lunch with a friend. We’ve ordered a Salmon fried rice and Wakana Don (sashimi with raw egg and seed weeds on rice). Both dishes tasted very good! Sashimi was fresh. The raw egg helped to blend every component together and the bit of vinaigrette taste of the marinated sea weed made the dish very refreshing! Salmon fried rice was not bad as well! Serving of the dish is generous and pure YUM! Also I’ve tried their $10 Wagyu beef don and their Katsu curry. Both are pretty good. Worth to try and keep trying 😉
One of our favourite BBQ restaurants! Authentic Japanese food, great quality meat at a reasonable price, fresh ingredients, efficient and friendly service we are never disappointed!
this is my fav japanese restaurant in my neighborhood. came here a few times. food is always good. their curry is really good. this is unagi box i had for lunch. not much unagi on the photo, but actually lots under the rice. value for money. yummy! will come back again!
