9 Bowls Japanese Eatery

Japanese restaurant

👍👍 Usually I follow suggestions given by customers and as I was near 9 Bows I decided to give it a go. What a great choice!

Katsubi Westfield Manukau

Japanese restaurant

😠 Has to be the worst katsubi in Auckland. I have been to a lot of their restaurants and this has the most unfriendly service, smallest portions and least tasty food. I have been there a few times now thinking it will be better but everytime it's a disappointment.

Sushi Bar Hayama

Japanese restaurant

😠 Really soggy chicken egg don. Asked the staff to check it and they said its normal. Seems microwaved as the rice was hot and the sushi don i also ordered was normal temp. Better spend your money at mcdonalds here at auckland airport 🤮
