Six stars - the food is delicious and really fresh. The service is very fast and friendly. We always have a wonderful time and travel an hour by car for our favourite Japanese restaurant. Thank you to the beautiful staff for making our son's belated birthday dinner special with a little surprise. Can't wait 'til our next visit :-)
Best Japanese that I’ve had in Australia. After living in Japan for many years I had missed the true authentic Japanese food experience. Until now, I hadn’t found anywhere. Waka was so tasty and fresh and such a reminder of my time in Japan. Thanks Waka for making date night with the hubby a treat!!!
Does not disappoint. Amazing Japanese cuisine. If you like to go out, save Waka for a special occasion and you will not regret it. The customer service is the gold standard. My favourite dishes include the wagyu steak, gyoza and some of the rolls.
Exceptional Japanese dishes in a small but friendly restaurant. Top notch nosh.
Fantastic price to flavour ratio, really loved the wagu beef udon, and the pork gyōza entree was equally delicious. $8 for an Asahi is relatively middle of the road, but reasonable considering the vibe of the place.
We just walked in, but apparently they prefer bookings, so worth keeping in mind.
Waka is an authentic Japanese diner, Best black cod and mochi dessert in Sydney. Not a big restaurant, so book ahead to ensure you got seats.
Some of the freshest most fantastic Japanese food I’ve ever had! You know it’s good when it’s so easy to eat a LOT 😬👌
Have wanted to go this place for ever & wow, was not disappointed! Just awesome, sophisticated but so authentic in variety of dishes & the flavours. We were in a party of 4 and we tried several dishes, my recommendation is ignore the menus & pick dishes off the wall, you won’t be disappointed. Definitely do some gyoza, try any of the scallop dishes & there’s a great spinach salad. Loved the fact that they had black sesame seed ice-cream, not many Japanese restaurants do, so for that alone I give them 5stars rather than 4.5. Loved it.
