awesome！cheap and delicious!!! My boyfriend badly love it. He can eat 2times a day ... after i moved to Ashfield, we have never been to other restaurants, because every time we passed here we want to have some japanese food !
I have to give it a five star for the large food portion with such affordable low price. The quality of the food is satisfying. I’ve been there more than twice, they also do food delivery
Large variety on menu, decent prices, efficient and friendly for a neighbourhood joint. Pretty good quality overall for the price. Will return!
Very happy dining experience. Service was gentle and efficient. Highly recommended.
The environment was ultra clean and cozy, understated - comparing to the neighbour Mamaruya this one is cleaner, quieter and offers a better and more intense experience. Mamaruya is too busy, noisy and oily (both on floor and on the tables).
Food was YUM and well prepared/ cooked, price reasonable.
We had the slow cooked pork belly, cheese scallop, wakame salad, sashimi boat, tuna tacos and horensai. Great stuff at good prices. Will be back another time to check out the other things on the menu.
Great little Japanese restaurant in the heart of Ashfield with free parking (up to 2 hours) in nearby shopping mall. Clean restaurant with open kitchen, somewhat understaffed; the chef delivers the meal to the table when it is crowded. Other than that, great food for a decent price, especially the dinner boxes for $12.50 with, among others, the following varieties: chicken katsu, pork katsu, and karaage chicken. A dinner box (see photo) comes with bowl of rice, Miso soup, fried fish, sushi, desert, and salad.
A relatively quiet Japanese shop further down from the middle of Ashfield, but a lovely one at that. The food was dainty and pretty, but tasted nice also. And the prices are great! I ordered the green salad roll and veggie sushi and they were so cute! Most vegan options when it comes to sushi are just avocado rolls and seaweed salad, but here they've put together a creative option which deserves a huge thumbs up.
Amazing food & great value for money!!
Boyfriend and I are regulars here and this is one of our favourite Jap places to dine. The food is always so delicious, especially the dragon roll!!
However, somedays they seem very understaffed and service takes longer than usual.
This place is great. Best value is in the "winter special" bentos, which seem to feature all year round. Service is good, price reasonable and food great. Been many times, never disappoints. Avoid the queues of the competition next door, Shinsen is 👍.
Food: 6.5/10
Service: 7/10
Price: 8.5/10
Ambiance: 8/10
Food: Ordered the "Winter Dinner Special" which is a bento box with lots of goodies. One was Teriyaki Chicken and the other was Chilli Pork. Both were very tasty and really satisfying. The portions were great and so much variety in one box!
Service: Staff were friendly and accommodating. We visited on a Saturday night and it was quite busy. I suggest reserving ahead of time on weekends.
Price: The winter Dinner special was $12.80 for the bento box. For the portions and the variety in the box, it's a great deal. The rest of the menu was priced reasonably.
Ambience: It was a modern take on Japanese design. It's beautiful, just a bit small.
Had a great experience at Shinsen Japanese Dining Bar with the kids. We had three of their lunch specials. Bento box portion was generous, sushi and sashimi was fresh and teriyaki chicken was nicely cooked.
Given the difficulties businesses are having with staff shortages because of Covid/flu, I no longer expect all cafes and restaurants to run as smoothly as they did 3 years ago.
Although they seemed a little light on floor staff, we were happy with the service we received today. We will definitely return to try the rest of their menu.
Very delicious, fresh and tasty food! Everything was nice and the service too. The restaurant inside is beautifully decorated and even the menu is so well designed with photos for everythingon the menu. Definitely will be coming back!
All the foods were properly done. Very flavoursome. Price is very reasonable (actually lower than I expected). Good service. Will come back again!
I live locally and I must say this place is one of my favourites! Amazing food, great selections, fresh ingredients, good service and BYO. The salmon volcano, tempura and chicken katsu roll are definite favourites. Portions are great too, they’re not overly big but very decent. You would leave the place feeling satisfied. Not to mention the great affordable pricing too.
Moderately priced for Japanese. The letdown was that they brought the entered and mains out at the same time, so the mains weren't hot by the time we ate them. It is easy to find street parking on Liverpool road even on weekend nights. The Gyoza had a nice outer coating and was the highlight. Good Eel dish. Volcano rolls were really nice
