HAKU - Extraordinary Japanese Cuisine
Authentic Japanese restaurant
👍👍 Had a dining experience at an upscale Japanese restaurant, and it's definitely on the premium side. The ambiance and service were top-notch, creating a luxurious atmosphere. However, the other dishes on the menu didn't quite match the high price point, and I found them underwhelming. My recommendati...

Tokuya Subang SS15 とく屋
Authentic Japanese restaurant
😠 Waited since 7.55pm and they will not let you know the rice is run out of stock, need time to cook again. Until you tell them want to cancel, then they will serve you some other dishes first, and wait again until 9.30pm only serve the rice. So please ask the staff do they have rice or not before or...

👍👍 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.

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...

Sushi YA Raja Uda | Penang
Japanese restaurant
👍👍 I still think this is the best takeaway sushi you can get in this area. Don't compare with sit in and specialised Japanese restaurant of course. The rating is compared with similarly themed Japanese food. The food is well flavored, the amount is generous and when you do a takeaway, the packaging is...

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...

Tanba Japanese BBQ 炭马烧肉专门店(Twin Galaxy)
Authentic Japanese restaurant
👍 Here right now for their BBQ buffet, at 150rm per pax for dinner, I’d say the price is pretty steep. But the food quality is good, especially the beef short ribs. Service is decent as well, but what surprises me the most is their cooked food, particularly their fried dishes, very nicely done, juicy...

👍👍 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....

The ramen gravy/ soup is always the right taste I like, not salty at all, almost similar to the Hokkaido ramen which i missed very much. My siblings a...
