How we read reviews →New Balwyn East izakaya turning out wagyu ramen, sashimi and charcoal-grilled skewers.
Cosy, clean, modern izakaya-style dining room; warm and welcoming when calm but can get loud and cramped once full.
Charcoal-grilled teriyaki skewers paired with cold beer, sashimi bowls, and a broad Japanese menu spanning sushi, ramen, don and katsu.
Reviewers repeatedly praise authentic Japanese flavours across sushi, ramen and katsu, though one review questioned the rice and unagi execution.
Most reviewers call prices very reasonable for the quality, though a few found portions small and pricing steep for what was served.
