I won't give low stars because I'm not petty. I was told 20 minutes for takeaway and it took 50 minutes. Food was great, but tell me an accurate time so I'm not standing around for 30 minutes.

4.1 This is a casual and inexpensive Japanese cafe restaurant. But, don’t be fooled by that. They serve a couple of killer dishes here. Dishes that’d be at home in good Japanese restaurants anywhere. We received a lovely warm greeting on arrival. I’m not sure why but we were initially surprised at the plastic covered tables and the ordinarily presented menu with pages in plastic sleeves. Looking at the wine list made me even more worried. One riesling only and from New Zealand! It’s all done to fool us, I think. We started with Saki hakkaisan, a lovely drop. We were worried that some of the dishes here were overhyped. They’re not. We started with super fresh sashimi. The pieces were all quality and incredibly tender. Salmon and tuna presented in different ways Including seared. Melt in the mouth stuff. Presentation was not great, but all the pieces were superb. Best sashimi we’ve had for a while. Next, the agedashi tofu is just so flavorsome, silky and soft. We couldn’t get enough of this dish. The owner told us the secret of the softness of this tofu but we’re not telling. But, the vegetable gyoza was ordinary - a tiny bit bland and unsatisfying. Lifeless one of our party called it. The Katsu whiting on the other hand was delightful. Batter as light as a feather. Beautifully cooked fish that was still wonderfully moist. A really good dish. We finished with a beautiful miso soup. A cracking miso. The teriyaki salmon was fantastic as well. Great quality salmon only is used here. it was superbly cooked. Great combination with rice. A terrific way to finish. We had an excellent night here with some wonderful dishes. Service and attention was great throughout. Amazing value for $50 a head. Highly recommended.
