• Japanese • Geelong West
Booked 1 time today
Michael Bong didn’t come to Japanese cooking along the obvious route – he’s Korean, for one – but now that he has, he’s certainly making the most of it. Tomodachi Izakaya & Bar on Little Malop Street in the centre of Geelong is a tribute to the corner bars of Tokyo, with a focus on the charcoal grill and the skewered mates that come off it. That results in top-notch pork belly, beef and chicken thighs for the meat-eaters and salmon, prawns and scallops for the fish fans as well as beancurd and vegetables for the vegetarians. Aside from the grill, there is also an astounding array of sushi and sashimi dishes, octopus pancake balls, salt and pepper squid, alongside dessert options and a long cocktail menu that befits all the best, boozy backstreet izakaya joints in Japan. Take trip into Geelong town centre for a Japanese meal to remember at Tomodachi on Little Malop Street – just remember to book your table before you arrive, as they do get crowded.

    Went here for a galentines dinner with my friend and we were both blown away with how yummy the food was! Absolutely obsessed with the king fish sashimi and crispy duck wontons. We got the feed me menu which was very reasonably priced and the mains were a good size. Cocktails were superb. Overall such a great experience, the staff were super friendly and accommodating, the food came out quickly and my taste buds will never be the same. Highly recommend.

    First time eating here with my son’s girlfriend for Valentine’s Day. The service, food and decor was spectacular. The cocktails were delicious and would come back just for them alone. I wonder if stools are along the bar to accommodate this? I think some sexy loud ish Italian music would send it even more. Can’t wait to dine and or drink here again. Love love love it

    Cannot praise Suzie Q enough. Amazing food! Every item on the menu I’ve almost tried now and all you can do is give those on the table with you a stupid grin in disbelief on how good the food is. My favourites are the Kingfish & anything with Duck honestly. Dishes are well portioned and very aesthetic on the plate. The restaurant itself looks incredible, in there you often see other people dining taking photos of the room as well as the food. Beautiful red lighting, with the exposed brick behind the bar, then adding the red carpet makes you think you’re back in the 90’s at times, yet it’s still very modern. And in my experience staff are so lovely. Very helpful which just tops off the dining experience. 10/10

    One of the better restaurants to have a date with your special someone. We had the All You Can Eat dinner and it was totally worth it. Very delicious and authentic Japanese foods that satisfied our cravings, especially for salmon sashimi. We'll be back.
