How we read reviews →Cash-only Carlton institution serving generous, fresh sashimi don bowls from a family-run kitchen.
Small, no-frills, home-style Japanese diner with an open kitchen. cosy and authentic, though service warmth varies by reviewer.
Cash-only counter, BYO with $5 corkage per bottle, an elderly family cooking and serving everything themselves, free tea with meals.
Run by a Japanese family with decades of technique; most reviewers, including several Japanese diners, praise the authenticity, though a few flag inconsistent hospitality.
Reviewers cite prices well below typical Japanese restaurants for the portion size, though a few note costs have crept up with inflation.
