A very good teppanyaki experience. Staff were absolutely wonderful and super friendly.
Reminded me of the hospitality I experienced travelling around Japan and eating at various local restaurants. The service was fantastic, everyone was courteous and had a smile.
Staff were genuine Japanese and spoke Japanese. I know very basic touristy Japanese and I tried out a couple phrases, they instantly understood what I meant and responded back in Japanese. For example I asked for the bill entirely in Japanese and thanked them for a delicious meal.
The restaurant looks great, food tasted good, teppanyaki chefs put on a good show and were skilled at what they do.
I haven’t tried out their regular non-teppanyaki menu, but next time I’m back in Queensland I’ll make sure to visit again.
P.S. making a reservation beforehand is a good idea, restaurant was full when we went.
We are Brisbane locals and we went to the Gold Coast for a quick day trip with the young kid today. We were all craving for Japanese food for dinner so we started searching on Google/Zomato for a nice Japanese restaurant, only found that most Japanese restaurants on the Gold Coast are closed on Sundays. Randomly saw this restaurant on google with 4.5 stars good review, so I rang to make a booking without a second thought.
DECOR: when we arrived at the location we saw a traditional Japanese bamboo fencing and a Japanese Garden at the entrance, and the next step into the restaurant we were amazed by the funky Japanese inner-street-style decor.
SERVICE: The staff welcomed us warmly and service was excellent throughout the night. Very attentive and also have big smile on everyone’s face.
FOOD: we went for À la carte tonight and we have ordered sashimi (SO FRESH!) , mixed nigiri sushi platter (SO YUMMY!), deep fried oysters and prawns (omg they were fantastic), chawan mushi (the best ever I have tried amongst Japanese restaurants on the Gold Coast). We also ordered some Japanese desserts (Mochi) at the end that gave us the taste of Japan :)
We all love this place and would definitely come back again and again to try out other dishes on the menu!
