    The food was fantastic, everything we order was really delicious. It is on the expensive side but it’s really good quality stuff so it’s worth it

    味も鮮度も日本と遜色なく美味しかった 回転してるものは、見本と考え握って貰った方が良い、手を付けてるのは日本人以外の人のみだったかな

    By some strange stroke of luck we had the entire restaurant to ourselves on a Friday night. As a result, the service was superb and very personal. The chef was quite a character (as you'd expect in a dining experience like this) and let us explore some of the less common/stranger delicacies on offer from the sea (fish liver, various roes, and other things perhaps too uncouth to write here). We really enjoyed our experience.

    The food was beautifully presented, fresh and tasted delicious. We were 1 of only 3 tables at the time we dined (6pm) and as this resturant is set back from the main 2 streets of Barangaroo it was very quiet however the staff were lovely and extra attentive (without being painful).

    Was a lovely birthday dinner with two friends in a quiet setting. We shared the omakase sashimi and eggplant miso, both of which we enjoyed. All seats were high chairs, please be aware, though they were quite comfortable.

    We could have ordered from the menu or choose off the train, the 3 of us all opted fir the train and we all enjoyed every mouthful. The young man that showed us to our table plus gave us the menus was very polite and informative. We would all go there again.
