The foods are so far so good not many choices though. The dishes were serve pretty fast except for the sashimi and sushi platter. Service is ok but probably need more staffs to take order, we've been waiting 10mins to get someone to take our order. No staff told us what time is last order, we only found out that when we wanted to order extra dessert which make us a bit disappointed.

Very packed for a late sitting on a Tuesday night. Long queues and long waiting times for service. The food was average to good between courses. Not the most comfortable of settings.

We really enjoyed our experience last night. The food was awesome and fresh. It's busy and the staff had their job cut out for them but they did well. The only thing is that they need to be mindful of, is that I noticed as lot of people who came after us were having their orders taken before us, but it was OK we just flagged wait staff and they were pleasant. There is a bit if a funky smell on entry, but to me it smelt like green tea, not sewage. The seating times are ample to enjoy their great offerings and feel satisfied. No idea why this place has had some negative reviews, I think they have an excellent product and concept for ACT and again the fresh sushi and sashimi are beautiful .

Really good value for money, they were really busy. However, we didn't get all the food we ordered, so they had to keep reordering it multiple times. Staff were lovely and attentive but it was annoying not knowing if your dish would arrive

Great restaurant, All of the food we ordered was very nice. The only issue we found was our food would come at different stages, we would get food that we didn’t order and we ordered 4 drinks and only 2 came out. Waiting another 10 min to receive our other 2 drinks. Over all the food is very nice.

Great food and the servers were very professional and as fast as could be hoped for. I don't know whether adding wait staff is the answer seeing as there's a limit to how quickly the the food can be cooked. There was only one dish that didn't impress (teriyaki beef), but it was still good. That was well and truly offset by the squid salad that I took a gamble on. Overall, the food quality and flavour was of a high standard. We very much look forward to our next visit.

The food was cold, no ambience, dirty glasses lined the bar for entire second sitting, the place smelled like a dirty mop, paper tablecloths on rickety fold out camping tables. Actually felt like we were in a food hall at a shopping centre. Won’t be going back so very disappointed that such a restaurant has opened at Mawson. Bring back Olive!

It was a good dining experience. The food was great and very happy with the service. The only detractor for me was the unusual smell when you first enter the restaurant. Not sure what it was but it wasn’t very pleasant hopefully it is not there next time we attend. Otherwise very delighted with the overall experience.

The food was good but it was cold and there was no liquor licence and it was only byo wine. We had gone out for a birthday celebration so it was a shame that my partner couldn’t have a beer.

When you have booking slots broken down by 15 minute blocks, waiting 15 minutes outside in the cold doesn't sound very reasonable, but I'm aware the restaurant recently opened and is adjusting on the fly.

Was very much looking forward to an authentic Japanese dining experience, however, this was far from it. We hardly got our moneys worth because we were hardly brought any of the food we ordered, in the 2 hour sitting we got the equivalent of one plate of food so it wasnt really all you can eat. The food that did come out was cold, and they forgot half of what we ordered. If we do go back, it wont be any time soon.

The food is good, except fried dish has oily taste. Waiting time between dish is very long. Best order your entire meal from beginning, second order will take long time, especially sashimi and sushi dish.

Food was good and fresh however service system seems need to Improve. 1.Table number is too small cause Staff struggle to find right table. 2. Food delivery is too slow. 3.floor needs zoning for better coordination of food and customer service.
