If you enjoy Japanese food then I think the best is right here in Brisbane . Yes i am biased,i do love Japanese food that is as good as that you find in Japan. If you haven't sampled the delicious food, attentive service and great atmosphere the best thing you can do is ring and make a booking.

Great Japanese - go for the food not the ambience -crowded noisy and a bit grimy BUT great food and buzz. Better than average Japanese not that food meets art sashimi style or theatrical teppan tricks but solid good quality food.

Came on a Wednesday evening and it wasn’t super busy but have heard good things abt their all you can eat wagyu beef hotpot for $35.5/pp and it did not disappoint. They prepared a piping hot cast iron skillet and prepared the first batch of sukiyaki for us and it was delicious. A bit too salty for me but we could add water to the right taste! The Waygu wasn’t the best I’ve had but surely good quality for a buffet setting. Def worth going if you are feeling hungry and love beef !!

This place is something special. Unpretentious, genuine hearty food. Although the restaurant is not particularly decorated in a Japanese style, the service makes you feel like you are in a family home eating a home cooked meal. I would highly recommend for lunch. However I do not like if much for dinner - the menu and style of the restaurant changes.

One of the best Japanese restaurants in Brisbane - excellent range of dishes, all delicious. The eggplant with miso is particularly delicious. It's not expensive either & in groovy location. I think they could do a little more with tables & chairs - they're a bit plastic & basic, when this place has the potential to feel a tad more special - the menu & the venue would justify it.

Good value-delicious food!! I had the chicken N set (number 8 on the current menu). It was delicious and a size that satisfied my food loving appetite. The service was friendly and polite. The restaurant was aesthetically pleasing and clean. The restaurant is very popular at lunchtime during the week.

I booked Bishamon for a friends catch up dinner, purely based on googling ‘Teppanyaki Brisbane’ and Bishamon popped up. Their menu online also states they have set Teppanyaki menus, however when I called to book, I was told it’s not available. I did mention that their website states it is, so just a warning if you’re planning on going here for Teppanyaki!

We were a group of eight and waited probably 20 minutes to even be given menus. It’s a pretty small space with lots of patrons packed in so it does get quite busy. Our orders were taken and some items were forgotten (such as a green tea). It was also very difficult to flag down assistance and water refills were near impossible to get. Finished dining tables remained uncleared for a long time and our plates were never taken away – something I find quite annoying with restaurants. On a positive note, when we ordered, our meals all came out fairly quickly of each other which I know can be difficult in large groups.

But on to the food. The food was good! I shared the gyoza dumplings and they were really delicious. Generously filled dumplings, tasty filling and really nice dipping sauce. I loved them. I then had the soba noodle tempura vegetable and prawn bowl. The tempura pieces came separate from the noodle soup which I appreciated because otherwise they go soggy. The prawns were tasty and the vegetables were also nice and crisp although perhaps lacking a little seasoning. The broth was really delicious and packed full of flavour.

The whole group seemed to enjoy their meals – the menu is quite extensive with lots to choose from. I would say the ambiance isn’t overly great and the service requires a lot of attention, but the food is really good.

Went to this restaurant because it's very high review mark, but feel disappointed based on the dishes I've ordered. The temputa prawn was very small and the eggplant was way too salty. Equal or below average than the many ones I had in Sydney. It's others dishes maybe be quite good and it's stuff are very friendly.

Had their all you can eat shabu shabu and sukiyaki. I love this place because it's not as westernised as other Japanese restaurants. Very authentic. Nice friendly service. It's a small restaurant so you might wanna book in advance.

All you can eat shabu shabu or sukiyaki!

After a slightly disappointing first visit in August 2017, we decided to try Bishamon again! We were so glad that we did. My husband and I chose the shabu shabu and took the all you can eat option for $34.50 per head. It was delicious - we tried both the wagyu beef (very tasty and tender) and the pork. The meal comes with a bowl of rice each and some dipping sauces and it's really good value if you're hungry. BYO for $2.70 per head was a plus and the staff were very friendly and nice! We'll be back to try the sukiyaki!

We went there with some friends and in hindsight we probably should have ordered a shabu shabu or sukiyaki hotpot because that was what all the Asian diners were eating. Instead we ordered some entrees which were quite good and our main meals from the specials board. Unfortunately the meals were not so special - my crispy pork and vegetable noodles was acceptable but the chicken and vegetables was not what we expected with a couple of pieces of strange processed chicken roll and unappetising starchy vegetables. It was also a bit expensive - especially as it was so unremarkable!

Booking is recommended for this restaurant as it can be very busy. I visited on Thursday night as a solo diner and I was seated at the bar.

The menu is extensive but not difficult to understand. The service was efficient and attentive. Meals came out in reasonable time.

The Gyoza was excellent and generous in portion. For the main I had the beef teryaki. The portion was very large including plenty of beef sliced into strips, a serving of rice, and a generous serving of salad. I cannot say for certain that the beef was indeed an eye fillet due to the shape and orientation of the cut, but nonetheless it was cooked medium rare to perfection and extremely tender. Taste wise I felt it lacked some flavour especially when it was to be eaten with rice.

Happy overall with my experience, only hoping I can be seated at a proper table should I choose to visit again.

With the recent intense competition in the food delivery market, it was no surprise when I received a very generous deal on my next order from Foodora in my inbox. With work piling up in my in-tray, my reluctance to go out to buy lunch, and the blazing hot sun outside, the choice to have lunch delivered was quite the no brainer.

After eating steaks for a month during a business trip to Newcastle, I thought it was time for a change. Japanese was the obvious choice. Upon entry to Bishamon, you are greeted by friendly staff and an air of authenticity. My partner and I began ordering our food in the usual fashion - far too much for two people (as the friendly waitress warned us).However, the staff are more than happy to pack your leftovers into a takeaway container. We had two mains and two entrees - which ended up being just under $40 a head. This isn't all that expensive considering lunch for the next day was sorted for both of us. If you're hungry, want great service and a side of Asahi, then give Bishamon a try.

Came here on a Saturday night, it was fully booked but the staff squeezed us in a table and we had to finish in 45 minutes. I like that they are flexible, and I will be back. However, if going on peak periods, try to book in advance as there will be a crowd!

We had the gyozas, sashimi don, and the beef katsu set.

The gyozas were amazing, probably one of the best I've had in Brisbane. Extremely light with the skin and generous with the fillings, just the way I like my gyozas.

The sashimi don was great, generous portions of sashimi on sushi rice, the fish tasted really fresh and I enjoyed the dish thoroughly.

The beef katsu was a bit of a surprise, we were expecting a big steak but what came was actually small bite sized tonkatsu bits. The beef katsu bits were cooked to perfection, we asked for medium doneness and it was indeed medium. It came with rice and their special tonkatsu sauce. It was delicious!

I will definitely be back, the hotpots looked amazing (I saw other diners having them), and smelled heavenly as well. I am also very interested in trying their teppanyaki sets.

Tl;dr book in advance, and hope you find parking near the street.

We order the shabu shabu hotpot buffet. I should say the waygu is high quality and the taste is ok, but unfortunately there are just too few options for a buffet: only wagyu, pork, vegi. Just got tired of after a few plates. The quiche is a free entree, but the taste is just so so. Actually I won't go for a second time.

Food was great, I had the sashimi-don which had really fresh salmon and tuna sashimi (other seafood were alright), my friend had the salmon shoyu which was buttery and savoury. The salmon teriyaki is very similar and authentic to Actual japan style. Will surely come back if i have the chance for the all you can eat shabu/sukiyaki

Came looking for decent Japanese in Brisbane on a Monday night and found this place. I ordered the sashimi sushi rice. It came with huge pieces of salmon along with assorted seafood all very delicious. My only niggly is the price because at 30AUD it is on the pricer side.

Between a group of 4, we shared the all-you-can-eat sukiyaki and shabu shabu with Wagyu beef. The beef was definitely good quality for the buffet style course and price, however I found that sukiyaki became far too salty after a couple of rounds of cooking. The shabu soup was bland in comparison, but there were no utensils available to actually serve and drink the soup which I thought was odd. Service was pleasant enough and i would be interested in trying other dishes next time. Bishamon gets busy, even on weeknights, so try to book in advance.

This place is awesome! I've only been for lunch and the specials are not only cheap- they are delicious and massive! I wish we'd only shared one- I had the katsu lunch meal. Well cooked chicken breast- major winner in that hospital precinct. Cannot wait to try dinner- they also have this outdoor garden to dine in which is joined with the cafe next door- supercool teamwork there

This is a local haunt and a restaurant i take to when visitors request for local japanese, it's priced well, portion sizes are big and it's hard to leave hungry. I've always order the yaku don - it's huge and I highly recommend that you share, other good menu items include the mixed sashimi. If you haven't tried japanese hot pot before (shabu shabu), then this place is an excellent starting point.

I enjoy this restaurant, I like the atmosphere and convenient location to my work.  The sushi rolls are popular and usually gone within the first 30 minutes of opening.  I find the meals are generous portion size for me and I usually cannot finish everything.  The pricing is medium range and very affordable.

A lovely Japanese restaurant located in one of the warm houses of Spring Hill. Dined in this place for a few times. They are always busy. I love that they offer plenty of varieties on the menu, in addtion, they also present a black-board menu for the chef suggestion of the day. For a al carte, it is the place that I taste Nasu dengaku (eggplant) with Japanese cuisine at the first time. The most excited food offered is the idea of sukiyaki. You can choose the set with Entree and the beef all-you-can-eat or just sukiyaki with beef only. The quality of beef is superb.

Work trip again woooo! Upside, I get to try out new places. Downside, I have to eat alone. So once again I made my way around the area and found a cute little Japanese restaurant two minutes away from my hotel in Spring Hill. I was hungry, I was tired and there was room for me.

Stepped in and was welcomed by the hostess and was seated next to the window. I ordered the Kozaemon Kimoto Sake while I looked over the menu and it was refreshing, fruity and dry. I decided to get all entree seeing as my belly can’t handle a lot of food.

9/10. I used to work on Boundary street and when my office moved, was disappointing that I wasn't close to this place anymore. Great Japanese food and they do some great value lunch deals. I've eaten here at night as well which is also great, and I enjoyed their teppanyaki. If you're looking for the traditional teppanyaki where they throw it at you and make a mess, you won't find it here. My friends and I liked the fact you could watch the chef and then he would hand you the food as we didn't want to go out afterwards covered in food. The only thing I don't like about this place is that at night time it can be so cramped and crowded that it's a struggle if you want to get up and go to the bathroom as you can't move in the place.

Maybe an off night?. Not sure if the head chef was off as we did go on a Monday night, of the dishes we ordered there were little things that let them all down.
The octopus in the Takoyaki was very chewy, the miso glaze on the eggplant was too thick and very salty which overpowered the dish.
The gyoza were overcooked and burnt and the filling dry, the tempura prawn and vegetable soba soup came with 2 tiny battered beans and 3 tiny battered julienne carrots, though the broth was excellent.
May give it another visit in future on a weekend perhaps.

Bloody awesome, authentic Japanese. Everything we ordered was so delicious! Stir fried cuttlefish with miso paste & snow peas was so pillowy tender, nasu dengaku (miso eggplant) was yum, B-roll (salmon avocado cucumber) was made well because of the perfectly vinegared sushi rice and compaction around the super fresh salmon, gyoza was cooked traditional way on an iron plate and had FRESH pork with a super crispy skin, tuna and salmon chirashi don was superb! (Having the right balance of vinegar in the rice makes such a huge difference) and they were very generous with thinly sliced late pieces of sashimi on top. The only qualm I had was that their vegetable tempura was chopped up thinly and deep fried as one big mass (prefer the traditional way). Overall such a pleasant and authentic meal! Highly recommend!!! They have alot of variety on the menu too :)

Love this place. We went there for Saturday's dinner around 6:30. Seats were not full around that time, but it's safer to make a reservation. We brought a white wine, and ordered all-you-can-eat sukiyaki (next time we will try shabu shabu). The meats are amazingly juicy and tender, and all the veggies are so fresh and tasty. If you don't know how to make sukiyaki, a waitress will kindly explain. The quality of all-you-can-eat sukiyaki is more than the money you pay for ($33). Next, we will try other dishes. Also, you may notice there are many japanese people visit this restaurant. This place is truly authentic Japanese place. We had a really wonderful evening there.

Recommend the Miso Eggplant!. Bishamon is the cute little Japanese restaurant on Boundary st, always a buzz with people that starkly contrasts the otherwise quiet street. I went to dine there on a Wednesday night and luckily procured a table without a booking. I suspect we wouldn't have been as lucky should we have gone on a Friday night. The ambiance of the restaurant was quite nice, with nice quirky touches here and there and a little shelf of cute Japanese children's games in the corner. The waitresses were also very polite and friendly, contributing to our experience. We ordered the sashimi platter, grilled miso eggplant and udon served in a stone bowl with seafood broth, tempura prawns and vegetables. The miso eggplant was my partner's favourite, with the sweet and salty miso on top of a super tender melt-in-your-mouth half of eggplant. The seafood broth for the udon was very flavoursome and fresh. My only criticism was that the sashimi platter was a tad dissapointing, with not very fresh tuna. The cute carved radish mouse was a nice touch though. Overall, a nice experience.

Sushi great, the rest just okay. We left this place wishing we had ordered more sushi instead of the other stuff. The eggplant with miso had way waaay too much miso paste on it, I had to srcap it off to avoid getting a mouthful of just the very sweet-salty paste. However, if you ate this directly with white rice it could be quite nice, but not as an entree in itself. The karage was also disappointing due to lack of flavour... I was tempted to ask for Japanese mayo with it, that would have improved it. Still the sushi was great, so I would go back here just for this. I would possibly try the teppanyaki too next time. As for atmosphere, I like being in a nice full restaurant because I know the food will be fresh, but the table placements here were just too close, making getting past other diners very difficult and awkward.

Consistently excellent. Have been going here for years. Good service, excellent food. Easy for a quick relaxed meal or order from one of the set menus and spend a few hours here drinking good Japanese beers and sake. The Sukiyaki set menus are good, the Shabu Shabu with Wagyu is a favourite as well. Best Miso soup going around as well.
Pretty basic on the inside, not amazing ambiance (although the teppanyaki chef is always worth watching) but really the food is the star here.

One of authentic Japanese restaurants in Brisbane. There are many "Japanese" restaurants in Brisbane, but Bishamon is one of the authentic ones ran by real Japanese people. Foods are reasonably priced and you can expect the same level of services you can enjoy in Japan. Lunch menus are also great.

Beautiful!. My friend brought me to this place one weeknight, and it was already full! I imagine it must be packed on weekends!
The decor is interesting and understated, the staff were really lovely to deal with, and then the food came! All of our dishes were so flavoursome and pretty to look at. I loved it! I am looking forward to going back!

Yum. A good place for quick, cheap eats. Authentic and delicious. But you've got to get there early! They get run off their feet after about 7.30pm.

Great resturant! Abit squashy buy atmosphere was nice despite all you being able to hear everybodys conversation. Would be nice for more space And less tables. Entre' size meals are satisfying and main meals are more than enough. We had a japanese waitress that was in the ball. Highly recommended.

The menu at Bishamon is quite comprehensive and has almost too many options to seriously consider, in fact you could easily get 'analysis paralysis' looking over the menu. Thankfully they've simplified the task of choosing somewhat by starting the menu with the chef's recommendations, which had some awesome looking options. We ended up choosing a cross selection from the whole menu to try to get as much Japanese goodness as possible in one meal.

It doesn't have the lavish décor of Sake, but the restaurant’s humble existence somehow make it unique and appealing. We took a while to decide on what to have for dinner as every item on the menu sounded delicious.

Who knew that Spring Hill was the home of awesome Japanese food? I sure didn't. Actually I didn't really think Spring Hill was the home of anything much except a few yuppies and a couple of dodgy strip joints. I've spoken before about my fascination with

Friday night's gathering took place at Spring Hill's Bishamon Japanese . Bishamon is famous for its $30 All-You-Can-Eat Sukiyaki and ShabuShabu (Japanese hot pot served on the table), I reckon they are the BEST DEAL in Brisbane - Bottomless Wagyu Beef! Ap

Pretty happy with the value of the curry-rice with pork cutlet and their agedashi tofu. The karahage were nice, but could have been softer. Will definitely go back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ awesome very tasty food 🍱 remember to always make a reservation to avoid being disappointed 😢 we had over ordered not knowing the generous portions being served here and had to get a doggy bag, which is a good thing👍

Had the thinly diced beef udon noodle soup, could not fault it. The flavour of the broth was incredibly rich yet clean and beef had a lovely aromatic flavour. I will be back! Ordered using their QR code system and friendly service. Thanks!

Great service great food. My son and I both enjoyed the Sukiyaki dinner. Especially with the “Tabehoudai” menu you can eat Wagyu beef as much as you like. The whole experience was awesome. We can’t wait to go back there again. Maybe we can try their bento box for lunch next time.

We had the sukiyaki hot pot buffet. The meat was so fresh and tender, excellent quality and quantity. If you like sesame, you'll love the Black sesame ice cream (see the picture). Full of flavor. We had a great time dining in there. Thank you to the owner and the family.

Bishamon is always great place to go for dinner. I am lucky cuz I live so close to Bishamon so I go quite often. Their tempura is the best in Brisbane. But make sure if head chef works on that day. I tried when head chef was off, it was alright but was not as good as usual. Every single food is enjoyable. Thanks Bishamon :)
