Sushi Hibiki
Sushi restaurant
👍👍 First time having omakase and the overall experience is remarkable! From the very first dish to last, all are heavenly delicious, no joke! It keeps you looking forward on whats next. Nonetheless, thanks to the chef who explains every single dish and how to consume it. It does enhance the overall di...

Nori Sushi @ Cormar Suites
Authentic Japanese restaurant
🫤 My wife and I are always up to try new places for japanese fare and stumbled over this one while looking for highly rated ones in KL city. Based on just our experience for that night, it did not live up to its 4.6 rating. There are plenty of great omakase places that are rated lower. To be clear, t...

Kappo Takebayashi

👍 New Japanese restaurant in town? Located at Heritage site, The Row? 👀🤩 Visited Kappo for lunch sets, and it was awesome! Tried their Oyako Don (pictured) RM20+ for whole set - Lunch Set — Creamy saucy eggs with chicken breast on rice. // and Saba Shioyaki Set (pictured) RM30+, both prices were go...

SUSHI TAKA
Sushi restaurant
👍 Came with high expectations but unfortunately I think I’ve had better omakase experience else where. The food is good but I think the overall experience was just meh. The chef didn’t interact with us much and despite having counter seats, we didn’t get to watch the chef prepare our food as he was si...

Hamasho @ Desa Sri Hartamas
Izakaya restaurant
👍👍 A pleasant evening at a lovely izakaya. Shop seems really authentic, and serves a nice selection of otsumami, sashimi, yakitori, sushi rolls, TKG (tamago kake gohan) and more. There's menu items here that I've not seen in other Japanese restaurants around town, and I am an avid Japanese cuisine fan....

Daruma Syokudo
Authentic Japanese restaurant
😠 I ordered the Terriyaki hamburger set. The most repulsive burger I ever had. I don’t know what kind of sauce they are using. It’s so sweet yet leaving that repulsive after taste. Not gonna come here again. The standard of food had dropped tremendously and I’m paying RM30 for such food. Ughhhh…. Bann...

Fukuya Authentic Japanese Restaurant
Japanese restaurant
🫤 The environment is not bad and the parking is convenient but for the price they charge the food is below average. I can find better restaurants for the same price. The sashimi is tasteless and the beef was just so so.

Toritama Yakitori
Authentic Japanese restaurant
🫤 When someone hears toritama they would hear quality yakitori which won a place in Michelin guide. However bringing its restaurant brand name all the way from Tokyo, does not mean it meets its’ quality of a Michelin star. This branch in KL does not meet my expectations of a Michelin yakitori house. A...

Sakana Japanese Dining
Authentic Japanese restaurant
👍👍 Saw this recommended saying that the food it serves is very authentic so had to come visit and try. The food served is on point and really does bring back memories of my trip to Japan. Whilst the menu is limited and everything looks simple, the quality for every item served is top notch. Price is on...

Kampachi EQ
Authentic Japanese restaurant
😐 Sunday Buffet at Kampachi EQ. The sashimi selection very limited but fresh : salmon, amberjack, snapper, swuid, octopus, Tuna Tempura the prawn is over cooked & a bit dry. Sukiyaki, was ok. Roast beef was mediocre Chawan Mushi pretty good. Among all, the dessert stood out as the best. Mochi & black...
