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.
Amazing food, good service and location from the railway station.
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
High quality meat but very very costly. Worth coming down special occasion.
Quality meat but a bit over price. Can find some better option.
As usual great food and service :) :) :) :)
The food is nice. The service is good. Definitely worth the price.
Food is delicious,service was very friendly,will definitely be back. Thanks
Good service, good ambient, food quality is just top notch.
Not so much choice in dessert. And this is second time we come here but still no M10 or M10+.
Great food and atmosphere, we enjoyed our lunch here. Thank you
Visited for a lunch but it was too dark in upstairs. But food was great as usual !
We eat here 4 times a year since 2014, chargrilled wagyu is a must.. so delicious, wish we could come here more often
Service was excellent and prompt. Food was pricey but worth it.
Love the genuine experience of Japanese vibes, everything went as planned
We visited on a Christmas eve and the waiting hour is reasonable. Wished we were given more advice on what to pick from the menu being first time customers in this restaurant.
Good food. Not the best hospitality for the price I paid. Took 20 minutes to get the table ready.
Very good and delicious restaurant. S S D D S
The meat is perfect, loved it. Will definitely come back.
Fantasy food and service. The Wagyu beef and sashimi is great.
Excellent service. The quality of wagyu is pretty good. It is extremely tender and juicy. Definitely visit again.
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.
Good food. But ai hope they change new menu soon hahaha
Great food and atmosphere! Reasonably priced wagyu, excellent service! :)
Fresh food and meat is really delicious. Taste same as I ate in Japan
The most delicious beef in my life! Very good flavour!
Very nice food and service! Can’t wait for next visit
really tasted food with perfect service and the location is also great
the servicenlet me to wait for the long time. the bad feeling
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.
Sensational wagyu grade, excellent service, our waiter was the best
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.
We had a great experience here, the service and food was amazing
delicious dish and good services. But it deserves to try
Wagyu beef stew melts in the mouth, Sukiyaki was simple and delicious.
Great food, great service, expensive but well worth every penny.
has to book online and was confirmed by three times before
The food taste so well. The service is nice. Strongly recommend.
Amazing beef quality comparable to yakiniku in japan! Love it.
I like this ace so much, I will come more
Great food, great service! We had a great experience and would come back.
food is great, waiters are enthusiastic and helpful, but the price is a little bit high
Amazing food and amazing service Would go back for sure
Loved everything about it and food was great. Will definitely return
Pretty good, quiet place. Wagyu is so amazing and melting in my mouth. Recommend!
