My first meal after I have been relocated to Sydney from Melbourne. I enjoyed the soba noodles. My friend has beef salads. We all enjoyed the food here.And then I had hot pot the other day…. the soup was so delicious. The hot pot food tastes so nice even if I didnt add any extra sauce : )The restaurant also has ramen weekends lunch time
We were looking for a place for dinner in Crows Best and was walking along Willoughby Road when we came across Sapporo. The Deluxe Sashimi platter was fresh and had a combination of seared and raw Sashimi which we enjoyed. We also really liked the Assorted tempura which had a nice thin & crispy batter. The grilled eel rice box was also really delicious, we shared this between 2. They had a matcha Swiss roll which I really wanted to try but was sold out so Ill definitely go back to try. Everything was nice and I would visit again next time I have a craving for Japanese food!
Bad taste in the mouth and a hole in the pocket.Pros:Friendly service, nice location and comfortable chairs. Green tea is real.Cons:Rugby memorabilia (fine in a pub, but ruins the authentic Japanese experience)Price is around around 2-3x price of what it should be.Lowest quality Japanese food I’ve tasted yet in Sydney, and I’ve tried lots of places.Tonight’s menu$24 for six wafer thin stingiest possible slices of salmon sashimi, dished up like a stray cat’s dinner. $24 for small bowl of overfried tempura$27 for bowl of luke warm congealed stodgy chicken katsu don$10 for two green tea. Green tea – authentic tea leaves.
My friend kindly brought us to this restaurant for lunch, informing us of its authenticity and how this Japanese restaurant was indeed owned by a Japanese man. I ordered a sukiyaki set and my girlfriend ordered the Chirashi rice. The waitress tried to charge me for the dinner sukiyaki set which was double the price but we luckily caught it before she placed the order. The chirashi rice was one of the worst we had ever had. There was barely any sashimi on the dried out rice and my girlfriend had some stomach problems shortly after eating it. We do not usually write negative reviews for restaurants but we felt others needed to know about this.
Seems like the chef in this restaurant has loss all pride and respect for his food. I can forgive the overpriced sushi which fell apart, addition of random condiments which made their rolls predominantly sweet. What for the life of me can’t figure out, is why you would sell a dish called ‘chicken katsudon’ which looked like the chicken had been breaded and frozen several months ago reheated in a microwave and charge the soggy mess $20. How is this place still retaining a 3.6 score? This place makes Woolworths sushi taste like Jiros.
Old looking ambience, over priced food with average taste and presentation. (Paid 80 dollars for the food in the photo attached) Conclusion: go somewhere else!!! Not recommended.
Went on a Sunday night and it was relatively busy compared to other restaurants in the area. We had the wattle- assorted Sushi, Lobster miso soup, Udon and some spicy edamame, which went will with the Coedo Japanese craft beer. The pick of the lot would probably be the Lobster Miso soup and the others were a little average unfortunately. We also tried the cold Sake- Junmai Daiginjo Dassei 23, which was nice and surprisingly fruity. The ambience is nice and not too loud, surrounded by signed rugby team jerseys.
