Reviews
"Upon entering, I was instantly transported to a Netflix doco called "Jiro Dreams of Sushi". Now, there was no Jiro here but everything else was 素晴らしい We sat at the sushi bar and watching the chefs do their work was like watching poetry in motion. Everything was meticulous and regimented. The waiters were alert, uniforms were crisp, service was impeccable. Seating at the sushi bar comes with a caveat though, it is only for 2 hours and when those 2 hours are up, you are expected to politely leave. If you choose the sushi bar please make sure to set a timer for yourself and respect it. The sushi was amazing but for me the Hokkaido beef took the crown, just melts in your mouth. Definitely worth a visit at least once. Arigato!"
"Amazing experience and food at Minamishima. All sushi were wonderfully prepared and the special dishes on the day including uni, wagyu and caviar were amazing. The highlight of sushi, ottoro and tuna belly just melt in your mouth. I do think their price is worth it for the quality and service you get."
"Pregnant friendly restaurant! I am 7 months pregnant and before getting a reservation, we made sure the food was pregnancy safe, and every dish I received was fully cooked. I'm able to say that I ate my food with confidence. On top of that, you can see how the chef prepares the dishes for you. I really enjoyed the experience."
"Flawless experience. Great atmosphere sitting right at the table watching the chefs at work. Staff were very friendly, my water was never below half empty and I was never left wanting another whisky because they were so active. Finest nigiri I’ve eaten in Australia by a mile."
"Nice Japanese restaurant, impressive taste, overall not very staid but very delicate, beautiful environment, I really like the main color is black, looks really cool, also quiet dining environment, and professional service staff. We had a great experience at this restaurant, including every change of cutlery, these small details can see whether the restaurant is treating their guests and their own philosophy with care. The food is very layered with many food combinations, and the impressive design is the mahjong tile shape. Unfortunately, the restaurant is very difficult to book, I tried to come back but could not get a reservation."
