How we read reviews →Beachside Lorne Japanese diner known for tonkotsu ramen, fresh sushi and generous bento boxes with ocean views.
Casual counter-order Japanese diner with tight but ocean-view seating right on Lorne's main strip, comfortable for a quick meal despite the compact space; watch for cockatoos if you sit outside.
Ocean views from indoor and outdoor seating, Sapporo on tap, and a menu that stretches from ramen and sushi to bento boxes and vegetarian/vegan options.
Mixed signals from reviewers. Several call it authentic Japanese cooking and even compare it favourably to Nobu, while others note it isn't cooked by Japanese chefs and leans toward a more Chinese-influenced take on the classics.
Split opinion. Many call it reasonably priced for a seaside tourist town and good value for the quality, while a few reviewers found individual dishes like sushi platters high for the portion size.
