We come here regularly. The staff are so lovely and accommodating. We love supporting local families and businesses. The food is classic japanese. We love the sashimi, wasabi prawns and teriyaki beef. The banquet is exceptional value.
Came here as my mum told me she knew the chef here and he use to cook for a steak house she use to always god to in Richmond. The restaurant was quiet when we arrived but quickly filled up , the food tasted pretty fresh but was not spectacular. The beef we ordered was cooked to perfection but we found the price of the menu very high ..
Foods are nice!!!!love the sushi tho. Very friendly staff and had a good time!!!!!!Highly recommend! Definitely come back again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Vegetarian banquet is delicious and the staff are very friendly here. The tofu steak and nasu dengakku are amazing! We have had both eat in and takeaway and the quality is great for both.
Food was great with very friendly service. We had a table of 6 and we shared plates. Some of the mains were hard to
Share amongst 6 but the entrees made up for that. We will definitely be back again, soon I hope
I really liked this place. The environment is comfortable, the staff are friendly and the food was great overall. We ordered Gyoza, Sushi and sashimi, Tempura, Beef teriyaki, steamed rise and green tea ice cream. They Gyoza was cooked well and we liked the flavor and texture. The sushi and sashimi were fresh which is always a good sign. We found the tempura to be cooked as it should be with the batter not too thick but crunchy. The Beef Teriyaki was tender and the green ice cream refreshing. Their prices are also very reasonable for what you get. We will definitely be back.
I really like the Unagi Don here. A great family owned restaurant with super friendly service. The price is reasonable compared to some other Japanese restaurants. Would like to come back again.
Ive been to WaFu multiple times, usually me and my dad go here weekly to catch up. After reading such poor reviews I had to write one myself.
Every time I have been I have had good service and amazing food. Ive had nearly everything from the menu and enjoy it all. Its well priced and the food comes out fast. I absolutely love Japanese food and travel across melbourne for it, and this still remains one of my favourite places
Taste good for the sashimi.
Sometimes you never think of this restaurant can make the things like this.
I will recommend more people to go to there. It is really good to go there with group or family.
Anyway, nice place.
Was a favourite when I lived in Hawthorn. It's so good that I often travel from Watsonia to come here for date night. Fantastic food, consistently great service and decent prices. Love it!
Good value and authentic Japanese. Had a family dinner here last week. Food was delish and tasted really authentic.
Thumb up such a little cozy Wafu restaurant. Nice ambience, staff are warmth n friendly. Food were great and great value. The menu has wide range of option. Was surprise and felt special treatment especially when the owner chef offers us to try their grill abalone. We recommended him to put on menu. Will definitely pinned them on our favourite list. Guess we will be returning regularly every couple weeks.
Brilliant restaurant! Always fresh delicious food, great value for money and lovely staff. An absolute favourite
We love the food & the service is friendly and excellent. However, our evening has been ruined twice now due to screaming babies in high chairs. This totally ruins the atmosphere.
Absolute Favourite. I've been going to Wafu for years, and there's reason behind this. The ingredients are quality, the food is amazing value for money, and the flavours are superb.
I can't go in without ordering Banquet A so that I can eat as many different things as possible, and it's such good value. I'm not normally a banquet person, as I find them to be unsatisfying and always containing a few things that I'm not interested in eating. This is the only exception to the rule that I've come across!
Love it, love it, love it.... in fact, going there tonight!
Amazing Japanese restaurant! Beautiful, the freshest sushi & sashimi. My friend was very happy with the banquet she had. She had a great taste of everything with really low fair price. The staffs here are amazing, friendly and warm-hearted. I really had a great night here. Thanks! Highly recommended!
Awesome Japanese. Well prices and you are waited on like a king! Byo wine, $28 banquet was awesome but u can also pick up a substantial rice dish for $13. We will be back :)
WaFu is such a cute little restaurant. The staff are very attentive and friendly and genuinely seem grateful for you being their customer. I had never had Japanese food before trying WaFu and I absolutely loved it and have come back quite a few times since.
It's a perfect date night place - quiet and small, which is exactly what my partner and I love. Dumplings are fantastic, the tempura vegetables are also delicious! I'll slowly become more adventurous and try some food that I've never heard of before, I trust it will all taste amazing.
So clean...and good food!. This is one of my favourite Japanese Restaurants. The first thing I always notice is how clean it is. Tables immaculate, glasses sparkling. Good fresh food, nicely presented, attentive staff. Good prices.

Best Value for Money. Wafu continues to be our regular Friday night meal Restaurant because it is so consistent and the food is beautiful! we love it here and never leave disappointed and the price is so cheap for the quality you're getting!
Delicious! I recommend the Bento box, such great value and decent portion size. The wasabi prawns are also yummy and the teriyaki salmon
Great little place. Seafood salad is a highlight and the sushi is a must. Love the free green tea refills. Very reasonably priced. Great service, will be coming back!
Fantastic food & good value. Have been here for dinner many times.
Wafu has fresh,yummy japanese food and I will go back for more~~
Highly recommend the Banquet A if you first time try this restaurant.You will have soup,gyoza,sushi and sashimi,tempura,beef teriyaki and icecream and tea.AND it only cost $28. Good value choice!!!
Small resturant so it is necessray to book ahead
Delicious! fresh fish! che.... Delicious!

and nice service :)
Friendly staff who greet you upon entry and great food throughout. Cannot go pass the Gyoza, a must have entree and the green tea ice cream with fried bannas is a nice finish to a great meal.
Fantastic food, delightful experience!. Very warm reception and excellent service! Gyoza were the best I've had so far. We also decided to try the new roast scallops, fantastic taste! I am impressed about the Wagyu beef as well. Great food, reasonable price, will definitely come back again!
Consistently good food. Great service, reasonably priced and tasty food.
Authentic Japanese. My girlfriend and I decided to go to Camberwell for dinner tonight instead of the usual Glenferrie road which we live near. We planned to go to Izakaya Mizu but it was closed so we searched for another Japanese restaurant and found WaFu. After already having tried Daramu down the road and Sakataya - Teppanyaki previously and being a bit dissapointed we decided to give WaFu Japanese restaurant a try. The Service was great and the food was delicious. It was very fresh and flavoursome. We had the Gyoza for entree which was better than most. My girlfriend had the Nebeyakadon Udon noodles and I had the Katsu Don. Both dishes were excellent and very tasty. Will definetly be going back to this place. Next time we will try the sashimi and perhaps some sushi.9/10
Service is AMAZING. Perfect food. Everything was the best version I'd ever had. When I dropped my chopsticks, in a second the brilliant waitress was there with a new set. My friend had an injured hand, and before we even thought about the complication with the chopsticks, the watress came with a fork and a spoon for his aid. She was wry attentive. More rice, fill my wine glass- she was there.
Not pricey.
Go there!
Absulutely magic meals. I loved the wagyu beef and my wife loved the sashimi and tofu. Beef tataki was also great! Great service. We will be going back.
Favourite restaurant. Have always been very happy coming here, both take away and dine in. Sushi and sashimi have always been fresh and good quality, the vegetarian gyoza and agedashi tofu are excellent, and the unagi don is fantastic. Service when dining in is very attentive and polite. Definately recommend.
Authentic, friendly and quick service, delicious tempura, and fresh ingredients overall. Ate three courses and did not leave with a heavy feeling. Definitely worth repeating. Only drawback is the toilets down the back in a dark alley.
Sweet and cute restaurant. Nice staff, welcoming made me feel like home, great food, especially prawn tempura, and agedashi tofu~~ amazingly delicious !!
not expensive, always good for my diet choice~~
Very efficient at filling up my water glass. Felt like I was back in the motherland.I'd recommend the tempura.
Ideally located on Burke Road Camberwell near the railway station (technically the west side of Burke Road is Hawthorn East) Wa Fu offers a reasonably priced mix of Japanese food and a decent house Sake.
