Michael Bong didn’t come to Japanese cooking along the obvious route – he’s Korean, for one – but now that he has, he’s certainly making the most of it. Tomodachi Izakaya & Bar on Little Malop Street in the centre of Geelong is a tribute to the corner bars of Tokyo, with a focus on the charcoal grill and the skewered mates that come off it. That results in top-notch pork belly, beef and chicken thighs for the meat-eaters and salmon, prawns and scallops for the fish fans as well as beancurd and vegetables for the vegetarians. Aside from the grill, there is also an astounding array of sushi and sashimi dishes, octopus pancake balls, salt and pepper squid, alongside dessert options and a long cocktail menu that befits all the best, boozy backstreet izakaya joints in Japan. Take trip into Geelong town centre for a Japanese meal to remember at Tomodachi on Little Malop Street – just remember to book your table before you arrive, as they do get crowded.

    Always great! Our request to have a table with chairs with backs was fulfilled… i even received a message confirming that would happen. VERY reassuring and personal for such a busy restaurant - THANK YOU. The service was fantastic as we had to leave by a certain time. Highly recommended 😊

    The food here was fabulous. We shared a charcuterie board and then a few very tasty pizzas. We all had different drinks and everyone enjoyed them. I wanted to try something different and the young man working there, listened to what I like, then proceeded to make me a wonderful gin cocktail. The prices were great too. This distillery is hidden away in Grovedale, but I'd recommend it in a heartbeat

    We visited for the first time and had a great experience. It’s a small venue and was clearly busy given all the tables were dirty even though the venue wasn’t full. Our table was quickly cleaned and the service was quick and very friendly all night. We loved the menu choice and easily found dishes we all wanted to share, ordering on the QR code was simple and we were surprised payment wasn’t taken in the app but at the till afterwards. The food was good, hot and very tasty. We thought the value was good too. I even got a birthday ice cream surprise at the end! Thanks, we will be back!
