"Exceptional! I had the pleasure of dining at this Japanese restaurant, and it was truly a divine experience! The chicken teriyaki bowl I ordered was exceptionally authentic, bursting with flavors that transported me to Japan. The tofu teriyaki bowl was equally delightful, and the warm and friendly service from the lady attending to us added an extra touch of hospitality. While the menu didn't encompass a wide range of Japanese dishes, the offerings they had were simply heavenly. Though slightly on the pricey side, the culinary experience was undeniably worth every penny. It was evident that the chef poured their heart and soul into every dish. I highly recommend this place for an unforgettable dining experience!"
"So happy for having dinner here and found the high quality cuisines here. They have the best chefs and sake and I definitely recommend them to you if you love the real Japanese cuisine."
"Best Japanese in Melbourne!!! Chou Chou had an amazing and cozy vibe, best authentic Japanese food in Melbourne and the best smelling bathroom I’ve ever experienced! The presentation of the food was on point with the tofu poke bowl being the stand out. Not to mention the owner, jun who’s a lovely hose and obviously a lover of fine cuisine. Would definitely recommend to anyone"
"Food quality is really good. Felt real Japanese touch all over the place. Its a small place but felt very homely and service is good. Might be a bit overpriced. Costed us $130 for two people."
"Its tough to rate any restaurant and hand out 5 stars. And so it is that our experience at Izakaya Chouchou is only 4 stars. The service was excellent, and the place is spotlessly clean. 5 stars for that. We were ushered to our table on arrival and walked through the specials - which are also up on the wall via a light pro, adding to a modern touch. Thinking 5 stars right? Nah not quite. We were a party of 5 with 3 children. The kids had Poke bowls which were over predominantly rice. I ordered the Teriyaki chicken main - for $27 was a thigh fillet, which is OK too, but it was only just cooked. And I mean just! it was uncomfortably on that chewy/springy almost pink border that had you checking every piece and wondering why there are good reasons that chicken is not served as sushi. Finally two things 1. The Price. $187 for a family of 5 who consumed just 2 beers is up there for a week night treat. Not cheap. 2. I don't know why there is frosted film on the windows so nobody can see in or out. The restaurant was full when we were there, but nobody would have known it! Surely it would great advertising to the hundreds of motorists who have to stop right outside? Strange decision."
