Goryon San offers an authentic Japanese dining experience with "excellent food and services." Guests rave about its traditional yakitori, "fantastic service," and vibrant atmosphere. Highlights include the Wagyu sukiyaki and miso cod. While some find the portions small and service occasionally slow, the overall ambiance remains a delightful escape to Japan in Sydney.

    We ordered 3 dishes to start with but it took like 40mins to come out. Also the waiter served wrong dish and we waited like another 30mins. He didnt apologise or anything. The vibe, food and drinks were good! Will come back if better service is guaranteed.

    The food has to wait such a long time to be served. Limited options for vegetarians.

    Very happy with food taste and quality, however service was slow and there was miscommunication. We had to remind staff three times of our missed order, we ended up waiting long and somehow spoiled the meal. But beef wagyu was tasty and easily our favourite.

    All the food choices we had were delicious. The portions are not generous so it’s quite expensive. Lively ambiance but a bit cramped.

    While the food at Goryon San and the service were amazing, what the let down for us were two things - 1. Portion size (really small for the amount of money charged) 2. Cocktails (Almost all cocktails were quite blend esp. Yuzu mojito)

    The chicken thigh skewer is still very good probably the best in town. The lychee soda is good too. But the menu has changed significantly; many of our previous favorites were gone like the cabbage salad and sausage skewer. Some skewers are now served differently like the sukiyaki and we miss the old way. Still a very busy place and struggled to get service at times.
