Have walked past Izakaya Hosaku so many times and always wanted to try it. Service was amazing, all the staff were super lovely and communicative. Cocktails were fantastic! The food was delicious and arrived promptly after ordering. Some items a little on the expensive side but all very yummy. Will definitely return!

Quality of sashimi was the same as the food court. Overpriced for what they’re offering

Nice little restaurant in the city, food is good and they have good happy hour drink specials if you arrive before 7pm. It is a very small store though and we were seated next to the toilet. Food was good but I felt slightly overpriced for the quality/quantity.

Attentive and friendly service; food was fresh, tasty and good quality (sashimi, chicken karaage). Atmosphere could be improved - the front door wouldn't close properly which made the seating area drafty and cold. We left to go have dessert elsewhere because of this. Toilet floor was wet with puddles, which was unappealing

Some of the best Japanese we've had for a long time. Very good quality and freshness. Every dish we had was beautifully presented and perfectly executed. An absolute pleasure to eat this menu, we will be back regularly! Looking forward to trying the rest of the menu! But will be almost impossible to pass on the Deluxe Sashimi Box, it was stunning! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Polite service but this sushi and sashimi selection was not as nice as the first time I tried it. The miso soup was a bit cold.

Nice venue tucked away in a quieter part of Melbourne CBD We ordered a sushi plate, tuna tartare and the wagyu fried rice with bone marrow to share between two. There was a Sunday surcharge of 10% - bill ended up being ~$100 not including drinks Service was quick and the staff were very attentive.

Tasty dishes, fresh ingredients and flavoursome, well presented menu items. Seating arrangements are limited though, and staff not aware that mopping floor for the day with strong smelling disinfectant near customers tables is offputting. Service was friendly though. Would visit again
