Matsumoto Japanese Restaurant

Service was poor Food a bit dry But will back

Delicious as always, broccoli, salad always a favourite. Thank you again

Food was delicious and well priced for the value! Definitely want to come back to try the banquet.

Great food but not-so-friendly staff. The robots are cool but they looked pretty dirty. We always feel that Matsumoto could use larger tables - if you order a fair few dishes to share, there's just no room to put everything!

The food was good but the lighting was very bright which ruined the atmosphere, made it feel like a food court. Prefer how it used to look and feel.

Three of us shared a delicious array of excellent seafood dishes plus vegetarian fried rice.

It was my first time going to Matsumoto. We got to sit in a cozy booth. At the table there’s a code you can scan to do the ordering which is very convenient. We got some sushi and also the chicken katsu curry don. They have these little machines that comes out with your food, so cute! Food was tasty.

It was good and would have been really good except for entrees and mains coming together and although it was rectified it felt a little awkward.

The food and service were very good. We especially liked the fact that there was no noisy/unpleasant background "music", which there seems to be at many restaurants.

Food great. Service not as good as last time. Noise level ok until the restaurant became more crowded.

Staff were unfriendly and unhelpful would not recommend sorry to say

Always enjoy our family meals st Matsumoto. I noted that there was a maximum number of 20 diners on Sunday night which meant it wasn’t too noisy or crowded.

Matsumoto have gone with QR codes and robot waiters. This has meant a new floor and a sparser atmosphere. Despite the automation, there was a 10% service charge for weekend and public holiday! Food is still good however.

Very delicious sushi and cheap!! C’è quel robot che viene a servirti😁 ☺️🍣

Wonderful!! Great food, my 4yo daughter loves the robot servers. Fast service. Will come again

Birthday celebration great food and great service and friendly staff

Lovely service and Delicious Salmon tataki and seaweed salad. Nice night out.

Great food and fun robot waiters. Kids really loved it

Great visit, terrific food and very well priced. Highly reccomend!

Seems to have lost a lot of its character and appeal in recent years. The renovation a few years back has left it with a cold feeling, app ordering and robots mean little interaction with staff (who used to be lovely), and the portion sizes have seriously shrunk! Spring rolls used ti be 6-8 in a serve, now 5. Gyoza, the same. You used to get a little dish of pickled vegetables on arrival, and now that’s gone. A real shame. Overall the food was solid, but the experience was definitely lacklustre compared to past years, and the value for money much reduced.

Really loved the food and staff - will definitely return soon

classic Japanese restaurant, great atmosphere and good food, definitely worth it

Sushi platter was delicious and all the staff were friendly

It was fine, I would stick with the sushi over the more substantial dishes. Just too saucy and salty.

It lacks personal service.so if thats what you are after it definitely lacks.if you like robots delivering your food than this place is for you.

Lacks the care and atmosphere of a real japanese restaurant. Quality has dropped. But that said good personal service. Robots diver the food which is good fun. Nasu degaku and chicken karate enjoyable. Rest of menu (didn't have any sushi) so so. Needs a tidy up

Great food, well priced and served by a robot. What more can you ask for?

Good food and atmosphere. Will definitely go back there again.

It’s a state of art dining experience however the e-menu should be more user friendly. The staff should approach us and offer any help when we are struggling to utilise the e-menu. The food is A-maz-ING. We didn’t need to wait very long to be serve with sumptuous food. It’s hot and healthy. We expect more vegetarian and vegan choices. The staff are friendly and helpful on need basis. Highly recommend for any Japanese lovers in Brunswick.

Food was tasty, requested to not sit near door so got stuck near register other tables were available.

Great food and service we have been going there for years

Great and yummy food and very reasonably priced! Will definitely go again!

Excellently prepared and presented Japanese food. The QR code ordering worked well and the prices represent good value for money. The delivery robots look a bit like Daleks but neither of them said "exterminate" so I didn't worry.

Good food but the service was really poor especially because now there is a robot helping the staff and there is no interaction. It doesn’t help to improve the quality of the service

Fresh ingredients and great meal but aircon was on a little too high

Delicious and great vibe. Loved the sushi/sashimi boat to share.

Great and fresh food. It’s worth trying all the sushi varieties

Fun time eating tasty Japanese food at a cheap price! Would definitely come again

Always makes us happy dining here. Food is terrific and they have a large menu with something for everyone.

Great food, professional atmosphere. Prices are not in the cheap range but you’ll get the quality you pay for.

The salmon aburi is to die for😁. All the food that I ordered were so yummy.

Great food, will definitely be back! Not a huge number of vegetarian options.

Fantastic food, lovely service. Would dine again for sure! Reccomend

Beautiful, fresh, delicious food and attentive personable staff- thank you, we cannot wait to return 😊

Great local Japanese restaurant. Portion sizes are solid and service is generally speedy!

Fiirst vist but wont be the last. Amazing food and flavours favourites was the yakitori and teriyaki beef.

Friendly staff & great food make this a restaurant you want to come back to. Hard to beat the deluxe sushi & sashimi ‘boat’ for fresh seafood & wow factor although the unagi sushi is delicious as well. Try the yakatori entree, just yum!

Just Ok atmosphere lacked a bit but food was nice

Fantastic! Love it here. Came back the next evening. Great food.

Best Japanese food in the Inner North. Space has been refurbished to give everyone more room. Staff are super friendly and efficient. Great treat after so many months without our favourite restaurant. Thanks Matsumoto ♥️
