First time. Tuna sashimi starter was dressed in flavoursome oils fantastic, fresh & unique. Bit of theatre watching the chef’s at the grill. Wagu main was my personal favourite ok though the miso eggplant have it a run for its money.

We had a lovely table for four near the window ! Great meal we opted for Alta carte rather than banquet ! Delicious food delicious ice cream and they even allowed a sake tasting before we chose the sake. Lovely service good value ! Only down side was the wooden stalls for our husbands. They had numb bums after 3 hours ! A cushion or a seat with a back would be nicer for your mature clientele !!

Its been a while since I have dined at Chaco Bar in Potts Point, but I was glad to be back. Everyone I know is talking about visiting Japan or have recently come back saying how amazing it is. Well if you cant get to Japan right now but want a taste of some amazing Japanese food and experience a great Yakitori with awesome Sake then get yourself to Chaco Bar ASAP. Food is delicious and varied, staff are great, very helpful and price wise, it is very reasonable for the quality. Great atmosphere, get a seat at the Chefs Table to be amongst the action. Highly recommended.

We had the banquet which is 70$ per head. And Food was actually pretty good other than some of skewers were overcooked that it was very chewy. However, they had couple of missing courses from order. And the guy came over to me and asked me that our course meal is done and if i want to order some more foods. And i was like yes id like to have a look at the menu. And i realized that we had missing skewers. They apologized once but that didn’t really make us feel better. Imagine if i just paid and walked out without having a look at the menu. Sigh…

Lovely setting and service. The food was a Lottie but overcooked and some dishes weren’t as good as I thought they would be. The signature dishes were excellent. We still had a great night!
