Due to covid, sono has decreased the size of their menu. But doesn’t change the fact that their service and food quality is still one of the best japanese restaurants in Brisbane. Exceptional customer service and great vibe. Will definitely come back again

Thank you for an amazing anniversary dinner. Squeezed us in last minute. The sashimi and beef tataki were amazing, as were oysters and karage chicken. Awesome Sake. Great spot for dinner.

I’ve been twice now. Both times were outstanding. The best quality Japanese I’ve had in Brisbane. Although quite expensive, it’s well worth it. Staff are all so lovely.

One visit was for my brother’s 18th birthday. I let them know when I booked online. They surprised him (and me!) when they brought out dessert while singing happy birthday. The dessert even had a sparkler on it.

The aburi platter is a must. I don’t usually eat much wagyu but the wagyu aburi was just incredible. The teriyaki and karaage chicken dishes are so tender - easily the best I’ve had.

On a different visit, I shared a bento box with my cousin, along with a few other dishes. Every mouthful was divine. I love how many different flavours and dishes come on the bento box.

I’m looking forward to going again!!

The food was ok, but why is it called fine dining?! Paper serviettes, dated decor, no ambience, nowhere to put a handbag. It’s a nice casual place and don’t expect more

Sono is one of the highest rated restaurants in Brisbane and the best Japanese restaurant I’ve been to. This fantastic restaurant has been a place I’ve wanted to visit for a long time and with their beautiful atmosphere, friendly and efficient service and the quality of food it’s no surprise how that they’re so highly rated over with over 1000 reviewers.

I booked through Zomato with an instant reservation two days before I came and was seated immediately upon arrival. Our waitress was lovely and perfect with her service as well as the other staff that brought our food. We ordered the Lai Chi cocktail and a glass of Prosecco. The cocktail was fantastic coming in a jug to pour into an adorable small glass and I loved the flavour of the Prosecco.

Our entrees were so flavourful and the tofu was perfect in crispness with the sauce as well. For the main I had the braised beef which was cooked deliciously so it fell apart and had a side of rice as well and we also ordered the special which was an Australian wagyu that came with three dipping sauces. Then for dessert we ordered the special chocolate and caramel mousse and the dessert platter. They also presented it with a sparkler and writing on the place with our waitress being so sweet to sing happy birthday to me as well.

After all our food it still only totalled to around $200 so not only was it a great experience with delicious food it was also very fair in pricing at around $100 a perfect for three courses and a drink. I cannot wait to attend Sono again for another special event or just because there is so many other items on the menu I’m interested in trying.

Sono is a really fantastic Japanese restaurant. I believe it deserves the title of one of the best restaurants in Brisbane. I come to here several times per year and all the experiences are satisfying. When people ask me about Japanese restaurant in Brisbane, I will recommend them Sono. The sashimi was so fresh and sukiyaki hotpot was much more delicious than other restaurant.This year I celebrated my birthday here in August, and the waitress prepared a little surprise for me. It was so sweet! It will be my first choice of Japanese restaurant!

A must have experience for anyone in Brisbane or visiting. Their food is to die for and their service is impeccable. The meat is halal and their dishes are fresh and of the highest quality. The restaurant nails the atmosphere and the staff are very professional and knowledgeable. The prices are extremely fair for this level of service and experience, and I would recommend this place to anyone looking to celebrate or have a perfect night out

Some say Sono is the best Japanese fine dine in Queensland. We booked a table 2 months in advance of our trip to Queensland (booking essential). Coming from Sydney, our expectations were high and they were met and exceeded by much more. One of the best Japanese fine dines in the country hands down. The Zen course is fantastic. Great services and ambience, a very memorable night at Sono. Highly highly recommended!

Had the Zen tasting course, $135/pp featuring 10 courses. The dining experience was very enjoyable. The interior of the restaurant was beautiful, it featured many traditional Japanese styled designs. The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. The food presentation and plating were beautifully served and they tasted just as amazing as they look and all the ingredients were very fresh. One small downside was that the Donbinmushi was a little too salty.

We got the 6 course tasting package for my partner's birthday. She has a shellfish allergy and some of the courses had shellfish. Sono's chefs were very agile and came up with genuine alternative options that were well matched and had me a little envious, honestly. This place has spectacular attention to detail from the truly divine food to the ambience of the bathroom, and the concierge like experience of the service. The little things really matter to these guys. This place has ruined me for other restaurants.

My favourite Japanese restaurant in Brisbane. Even though it is quite pricey, it is worth the money and I only come for occassions. The food, service and experience was great, every visit was enjoyable. I love oysters and sashimi but their other dishes are great too.

We go here so often as a family because the food is consistently delicious, beautifully presented and the service is very attentive. We have tried the teppanyaki and the A La Carte menu and can't fault either. I do hope they will add more volume in the cocktails because it is pricey for what they give you. That would be my only complaint but really they are delicious that I don't mind paying a bot more.

My go to place whenever I am in Brisbane and crave for fine dining Japanese food. Had the omakase. It was really worth it. No wonder it was full house.
