Meat were all (any grade) delicious and high quality. We did find the popular foie gras rice dish to be overrated though. Price is on the expensive side.

Very delicious wagyu. Unfortunately, there was no seat for charcoal grilled. Next time, we would like to book seats for charcoal grilled, so we could cook meat by ourselves.

A lovely place to eat at in South Yarra! The meat was high quality and absolutely melted in your mouth! However, we did feel that we were being rushed out as many other reviews have stated. The waiter was friendly and helped service us but we did feel that as soon as a dish was finished, the staff would immediately take it off the table + we were constantly being asked if we were ready to cook out meat but we wanted to enjoy our meal at a slow pace. Still a lovely restaurant to dine at with good food but just be aware - given the price that you pay (around $250-300 for 2 people), you would expect a higher level of service imo

Was a truly satisfying meal. Only disappointment was that the M10 karubi and M10 oyster blade ran out. Second time visiting and still haven't had the chance to try those.

The food was incredibly good but we expected a better service even though it’s busy on Christmas Eve. Hopefully it will improve the next time when we visit again!

The quality of today’s wagyu is not as good as before. The waiters made mistakes by twice, serving the wrong items and forgetting what we ordered. Maybe because it is Christmas Eve, so they are in a hurry.

I brought two friends who were visiting Melbourne there for dinner. The staffs were very professional, friendly and attentive. We love the Foagura Isiyaki Bibinba, Wagyu Eye Roll Steak and Creamy Crispy Oyster. We found the Kyo Yasai Fu Warm Vegetables a bit sweet for us but I guess it might be nice to Japanese who love Kyoto style broth. The dinner is definitely value for the money we paid.

Visited the said restaurant a couple of times but this time had the worst customer service. Frowning waiter who seem to have troubles allocating our table despite finding my name on his reservation list. Seated upstairs where waiters were found happily chatting loudly in their own language (not Japanese or English). Followed by waiter saying “you can cook your wagyu yourself” as waiter simply left the A5 on the table. Not the usual practice of our previous visits when the staff do ask if we needed someone to cook for us. P.S. Restaurant was not busy at 5.30pm so it’s simply lack of customer service rather than having a busy moment. Will hesitate whether to visit this branch again.

The food is quite enjoyable but the service, restaurant cleanliness and environment is not up to standard. The waiter who serves us just recommended us and expect us to have the Japanese wagyu and all the expensive items in the menu and didn’t even bother to recommend anything else or the local wagyu. Dining experience felt very rush. The place is stuffy and the toilet area is very very dirty. I saw shoes lying around near the corridor and bags of grocery can be seen near the toilet. My second time here and probably my last. First time visit wasn’t that bad.

Simply the best yakiniku i've ever eaten in my life. As for one of my dining mates, who travels frequently to Japan and is a person who, in my opinion really knows his food, his comment was that this was the BEST that he's ever had outside of Japan itself. Which i think is high praise indeed. Kudos to the owners of this establishment.
