Another great family dinner at the best Japanese in the East.
Food good as ever, and staff friendly and accommodating.
Just at great place to eat.
It is absolutely brilliant! We've been coming here for over ten years. The food is amazing as are the wonderful staff- highly recommended oh and the pancakes are the best!
It was just bang on....we got delivery. It would be bang on! if we went to the restaurant in person.. Give the miso eggplant ago.
Only downer was Gyoza was a tad soft....understandably because of takeaway containers.
Will definitely order/eat here again

A coupla decades ago, this was the location I took my soon-to-be forever partner. He'd never had Japanese food, whereas, it was my favourite cuisine. I had no idea how frightened he was all those years ago, considering he thought the best food came out of a place with a big yellow 'M'. I was on a mission to educate his palate. It's fair to say, it didn't happen overnight, but he did realise that Japanese food is nothing to be afraid of, and now he adores tuna sushi. Now we both love it, as do all of our kids.
I am really not sure why we stayed away so long, but we have since revisited and do not plan to make it a one-off.
There is a little amuse-bouche of vegetables to get you in the mood. While I was only moderately keen on the house-cocktail, every other drink I have tried has been delicious, including the sake - I am a novice, but the staff will help advise. The prices for drinks are very reasonable.
Three banquette options are available, and look good value, but we only gone our own way.
I think the sashimi entree is great value, in my two recent visits I haven't managed to go past it. Soups too, are worthwhile
Tempura main here is generous and well cooked. Okonomiyaki too, is a delightful version, with chunks of the octopus obvious within the crisp little balls. Tatsuta Age gives you big chunks of crispy chicken, with good flavour.
I quite enjoy hearing the clicking of the chef at the teppanyaki grill, he always seems to be enjoying himself. Some of the staff are very knowledgeable, though you may encounter a newbie, they're happy to find the answer to your question.
A disappointment was that, on a recent visit, although we made a booking, our table was right in front of the door, rather than slightly further into the restaurant away from the rather cold breeze every time someone entered - on a Melbourne winter even a partition wont stop that chill. I felt we sat at the table you'd expect as a walk-in, rather than book for, pity.
went here for my birthday and was pleasantly surprised. every dish had been really nice, and especially the miso soup was the best miso I have ever had. staff were really nice and there wasn't a wait between dishes. the potato on the tempura dish was undercooked so we didn't eat it, staff had asked us if everything was ok and they were happy to get us a new batch. :)
had a really good experience here with tasty food.
19/06/2016 - Best Japanese ever! Top quality food, attentive servers and menu has both hot and cold dishes so there is something for everyone. Everything was perfect.
Started visiting this place again after being disappointed after new management and am pleased to say that it is amazing again! Have been going here about once a fortnight its that good! the banquet with the miso steak is a personal favourite as is the bento box. Really friendly and lovely from the first impression till leaving
Not the most attractive restaurant.
But serves deliciously fresh and tasty Japanese food.
Great for large groups, book the banquet room upstairs!
Great food, friendly staff, reasonably priced, long history in the area, that says it all. Eaten here numerous times, always fabulous standard
Looks can be deceiving! Tucked away, but restaurant was jamming and lively. Gyozas a must try and sashimi is fresh. Very reasonably priced. Wine list could do with some updating, terrible list. Customer service excellent and would return!
perfect night, delicious dishes, good service and places, love the atmosphere, also the price is reasonable ! Highly recommended !!! Had a blast !
Good quick service and a decent Japanese menu.
We'd booked in for a birthday and they surprised us with a birthday pancake for desert - nice touch.
A little smokey inside because of the grill .. Will go back.
