Sushi St

Amazing food... chef Tai S Le is awesome! Also, really good environment and customer service.

Excellent food, nice little restaurant. Ordered two or three plates to share between two of us. Have 3-4 different sakes which I didn't get to seeing as it was lunch...!

Great sake, presentation of every dish is excellent and tasty

Best Sushi in Bondi!. I'm so stoked these guys are here! The food is fresh and healthy just the way sushi should be. Unique and interesting rolls, good value for money, and very kind and welcoming staff. Will be back soon!

After returning to my beloved Bondi for the summer, I am all too eager to investigate the new and improved around the familiar haunts. One place that seems to have caught my eye is the growing foodie hub at the top of Hall st. As I live not too far from this precinct of gourmand goodness, I will endeavour to comment on all the surrounding spots.
First on my list was Sushi st, recommended to me by my Japanese friend. I had arranged to meet her on a Sunday afternoon, which had turned uncomfortably warm. My friend was already seated at the train, and had the foresight and delicious presence of mind to order me a cold beer. I shuffled onto my seat as the beer was placed in front of me. It turned out to be a Japanese draft beer called Orion, not to heavy handed, and had the quenching effect of lowering ones feet into a tub full of cool water on a hot day. Half of the beer was gone after the first gulp. My friend was eager to impress on me the merits of the wide selection of treats on offer and set about randomly snatching small coloured plates from the train. Given the position of the seating around the train conversations and shared smiles were being shared by the collection of seated diners, as we at times simultaneously reached for the same plates. This in turn led to the merriment, making it quite a pleasant friendly dining experience. I pensively eyed my Nigiri as it made its way down the back straight, willing it home, hoping for it to avoid the darting hands of my fellow diners. The food was of a high standard, it hadn't warmed or softened in the heat and it cool and freshened the palette before the Wasabi applied its venom. I ordered the sashimi salad from the menu, it took a little time to arrive, but with the warm weather and the amount of customers at the time it was perhaps understandable. This did provide a good interlude to order another cold 'un. I do like a good piece of sashimi, and on a bed of baby spinach sat a good helping of the stuff, here before me sat well presented chunks of Salmon, Tuna and Kingfish. Added to the fish was a generous helping of dressing, which allowed the salad and the sashimi to blend and hold together. The dressing did not suffocate and overpower the flavours of the fish but presented a pause, a moment, to come back to the flavours and texture of the fish. The fish itself seems to have been studiously considered and chosen given its consistency. The beauty of raw fish is that it seems to inhabit a texture somewhere between firm and soft. It has a defined form but weakens and melts in the mouth.
Overall I was pleased with my visit to Sushi st. The service and price are of the surrounding area and I did not encounter anything that distracted me from my enjoyment. The decor has to be noted upon, which has traditional Japanese elements set against a striking contemporary Japanese Manga mural. Kampai

Next week I'm off to Mad Pizza to see if it can top itself.

Samuel has got to be one of the nicest waiters I’ve ever encountered. Charming service, excellent food, highly recommend.

Awesome friendly service, delicious fresh food. Happy hour too, everything on menu must be tried.

Sashimi and nigiris are fresh. Softshell crab was a bit too oily
