How we read reviews →A cramped CBD favourite for Hokkaido soup curry, omurice and daily queues.
A tiny, hectic 20-seat CBD diner styled like a small Japanese alleyway eatery. cosy, cramped and full of queue-driven energy.
Hokkaido-style curry soup base, housemade tamagoyaki, the distinctively named Sushi Hotdog starter, and branded stickers for five-star reviewers.
Multiple reviewers say the soup curry "tastes like the original in Hokkaido" and evokes genuine homesickness for Japan, though a few flag inconsistent seasoning and an omurice egg that isn't as creamy as in Japan.
Frequently praised as good value at roughly $20 a main with generous portions, though a weekend surcharge applies and one reviewer called it pricey on weekends.
