How we read reviews →Hawthorn's decade-old izakaya where diners grill their own wagyu tableside on charcoal.
A no-frills, bustling neighbourhood izakaya with tabletop charcoal grills. functional rather than polished, built around communal all-you-can-eat dining rather than ambience.
Individual portable charcoal grills at the table for diners to cook their own wagyu, plus bottomless green tea with the izakaya menu.
Runs a genuine izakaya format of shared plates, grilled skewers and teishoku sets rather than a westernised version, which reviewers familiar with Japanese cuisine call out as a point of difference.
The wagyu BBQ buffet (around $88 per person for unlimited wagyu and sashimi) is widely called good value for the meat quality, though a handful of reviewers felt the pricing didn't match inconsistent sashimi on some visits.
