For this calibre of restaurant I would have thought they would use fresh hand cut chips not frozen, it puts the quality of the dish down. Everything else was really good. We will return.

Best sushi that I have had in Sydney. Had a great lunch there and tried a couple of different sake/Nihonshu to go with it. Chef Jiho’s “omakase” choice of sushi, each piece is carefully crafted. He is passionate about what he creates. Will go back for sure; want to try the dinner course too.
