   Had a super lovely evening at Yashin Ocean House. The team were amazing. So attentive, knowledgable about the produce on the menu and major accommodating. Food was excellent and the combination of flavours was exciting. Seemed effortless yet we knew the amount of heart and effort that goes into it. Feeling very satisfied and grateful to have been able to spend an evening here catching up with friends.

   We have been regulars at this restaurant for years as we used to live just across the street. This time it was disappointing. The staff doesn’t make you feel welcome - quite the opposite: you disturb their process. If they accommodate your wishes they can’t help saying that “it’s only this time and an exception” which they grant generously. Don’t expect it to happen again! The food was subpar, the fish felt “fishy” and even the usually very nice chef appeared grumpy and unhappy. The nice staff is gone and has been replaced by some unhappy apprentices. There appears to be a management problem.

   Do not be fooled - from the outside, this restaurant looks a bit dark and perhaps uninviting. However, once inside, you will realise it is a lovely, unpretentious Japanese restaurant. The restaurant has tables and also a counter bar. The food is excellent, with traditional dishes as well as some modern twists. There is the main menu but also daily specials. There is a good choice of sakes both by the glass as well as by the bottle. The staff are friendly and helpful, making you feel welcome. This restaurant is frequented by locals in the know, which says a lot. I will definitely be back to try more dishes and sake!

   The food at Yashin is exceptional. Everything we had was extremely well done and perfectly cooked. The mixed sushi was some of the best I’ve tasted and the tempura prawns light and crispy. Service however was erratic - we were seated in a half empty restaurant right next to people with a fairly noisy and active toddler, so we asked to be moved to a different location which they did. However drinks orders weren’t asked or taken before the food, after the first couple of dishes came out the sushi took about another 30 mins to arrive - it’s made from scratch but even so. We would have had a dessert but again, no wait staff came back so after another 10 mins or so ended up waving someone over and asking for the bill. They weren’t very busy so was really strange .

   What a place, the fish quality is off the charts great and the creative nature of the chefs is lovely. Do yourself a favour and take the omekase options. Sake flight is amazing as well
