Best places: Japanese authentic restaurants in Melbourne, Australia

👍👍 I’ve never had Hokkaido Japanese soup curry before , it’s much more creamier than the mainstream Japanese curries. I understand that it draws on Indian/Nepalese influences with its soup like broth and use of fresh vegetables to give the curry some oral texture. It was nice to try something new yet f...

😠 The food was not special. And I thought I fell a sacrifice of their racism. Even this restaurant is Japanese fusion dining! When I tripped over a chair, the staffs and guests laughed at me. No staff asked me "Are you okay?". Even one of staffs told me "enjoy!". When I left the restaurant after dinn...

Relaxed, wood-accented izakaya offering sushi & casual Japanese bites, plus a sake list & beer.

👍👍 Lovely, high quality Japanese home style food. Salmon sashimi was delicious and very fresh. All the entrees were delicious and tempura udon was great. It’s a tiny, cosy space. Nothing fancy, probably more geared towards take away. Enjoyed our meal there though. Would go back again.

👍👍 In my opinion best authentic proper Japanese sushi and dishes. Sushi is made right on the spot in front of you and the ingredients are always the freshest. For $3plus it's worth it as the rice is full is of flavour. Vinger not too overwhelming all flavours are on point

👍👍 The first time I had ramen here, it's so delicious. The broth is rich and thick with just enough spice to make your taste buds tingle but not too much where the whole dish becomes overwhelming--I love how each bite feels like an mini-feast! With an array menu options to choose from as well as fanta...

Sleek venue offering Japanese barbecue including meat & seafood plates, plus a weekday buffet.

Japanese dumplings and izakaya in a cool setting with high ceilings and wood-panelled booths.

Fine contemporary Japanese dining with a sake bar, cocktails & creative banquet menus.

👍👍 Gyoza Gyoza is a Japanese dumpling bar in the heart of Emporium Shopping Centre in the CBD. It serves a range of dumplings, sashimi, salads and fried snacks, all priced at $6.80. Reminds me of Daiso, the Japanese store which sell everything for $2.80! I ordered the lunch special. It included juice...

👍👍 Love this place! Beautiful service, delicious food, lovely atmosphere.

👍👍 😋💯 Situated in a prime location in Melbourne Central, this place is hard to miss. An extensive menu with authentic Japanese dishes, a colourful bar and ample sitting space, this restaurant is an experience in itself. 🍜🦞 First things first - this place is expensive, like $$ range. I decided t...

😠 Used to be our favourite place. They have completely stepped down their game in terms of hygiene and professionalism. We routinely ordered sushi platters. Each time we came we found the staff to be rude. The one time we ordered less sushi in our platter it was given to us in small plastic containers...
