Bounty of the Sun

Modern izakaya restaurant

👍 Been here several times. It's actually a hidden gems. You can't go wrong with this place. However, it took so much time for our order on the night my partner and I went to, especially when it wasn't even busy at all.

Tomodachi Izakaya & Bar

Izakaya restaurant

👍 Quick service for most meals. The Miso Ramen was delectable. The izakaya pork belly was spot on. Grilled scallop came out a little bit slow but worth the wait.

Robata Japanese Grill Melbourne

Restaurant

👍 Pricey given the portion size. We left the place with empty wallets and hungry stomachs. Definitely not worth the money considering the ingredients used, but for the taste it’s a nice experience. Personally, I loved the steak and white fish ( incredibly creamy).

Gyoza Gyoza

Izakaya restaurant

👍👍 The ramen photo showed bamboo, but they were actually absent, which was somewhat disappointing because I really love bamboo. Also, I ordered chocolate ice cream, but they only had matcha flavor that day. However, the food was great, and the staff even let me charge my phone.

Gyoza Gyoza

Authentic Japanese restaurant

👍👍 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...

Sansanni Izakaya

Japanese restaurant

😠 I'm a frequent customer of Sansanni ever since its opening. The food was good at the start but the quality started to drop. The salmon sashimi contained a lot of bones and it wasn't fresh because the colour was very off and unappealing. The skewers were also extremely dry that no amount of drinking...

Uzu Curry Laksa & Bao

Noodle shop

😠 Chicken came still raw. Noodles uncooked and they don't mention it anywhere. Can't track them. Order was late so tried calling several times but they don't answer so it just dials out. They trade under a completely different name on Uber Eats.
