Just like the "Japanese Resturants In Melbourne?" thread, what are people's recommendations for Jap restaurants in Sydney?

I'm looking for nothing too expensive.

I've had Sushi-Ya in Chatswood/Artarmon.

Makoto in Chatswood/Liverpool Street

Tetsuya

Rengaya

The one on York Street opp QVB (next to adult book store)

Totoya in Neutral Bay

Kenta in Neutral Bay

Some small one in Chatswood past Crystal Car wash on the corner

All are very nice in my opinion; prices do vary though - especially if you go to Tetsuya :happy:

Thanks Stan

The "Some small one in Chatswood past Crystal Car wash on the corner" is Sushi-Ya

Makoto is more a sushi-train. I'm looking for more restaurant type joints.

And Tetsuya is abit too expensive (not to mention excessive waiting time for bookings).

I'll check out the others.

The one on York Street opp QVB (next to adult book store)

Totoya in Neutral Bay

Musuya

These three would be more your liking then.

If I had to choose I'd go for Musuya; it's more a little bit less "traditional" but the food is top-notch and great value. Be sure to book and bring a map or else you'll walk right past it and won't even know it was there.

Do you mean Masuya stan?

I couldn't find anything for Musuya

That being said, this Masuya place looks nice and reasonably priced.

Thanks once again for the help :happy:

the musashi 1 is better imo. atleast 4 wagyu beef

My top places are:

Sushi Suma - Cleavland St Surry Hills

Book ahead for this place because you'll know it from 3 blocks away by the queue waiting to get in every single night of the week. If you book ahead you wont necessarily get a table first but you go to the front of the line. The meals are cheap and large and the ingredients are fresh which are the main points I look for in a sushi place. Seating is tight and cramped but authentic Jap really.

$30 - $45 for two people is a huge feed here.

Masuya - O'connel St City

Classy Jap restaurant without being overly expensive you've probably all been here. The best thing on the menu is the sashimi boat which I can finish myself but really could feed 4 with assorted other things. They take bookings in two sessions. Early starts 6pm ish and you must be OUT by 8.15pm. Late starts 8.30pm and goes all night so book the late session if you want to tackle a few Sapporo cans with your giant sashimi boat.

Deserts here are awesome and somehow I once managed to get one of each on the house. Worth saving room for if you're into macha ice cream.

oh yeah and the specialty is Shabu-Shabu if you're into that.

Tetsuya-san is Japanese yes but it's not technically a Japanese resteraunt. I would rule this out of the thread. Especially since to book a table today you'd be looking at Feb - March dinner........

Another vote for Sushi Suma - Cleavland St Surry Hills, (right near the BP petrol station)

As Sewid said, LARGE meals, awesome value, and very tasty Teriyaki chicken. The Teriyaki and sushi combo is good pick, its around $14 and a big meal for one person.

Also true is that it is always packed. Im walking distance so its not so bad to turn up there and find a massive queue but booking is a good idea. Ive only ever been to have lunch there, ill try dinner soon!

Sewid, sounds like Masuya is my type of place, im excited to go check it out soon!

Kyushu in Neutral Bay - Affordable, fresh food and delicious. They're always busy so book ahead. They have the best teriyaki squid.

Tsukasa in Surry Hills

Juju's in Darlinghurst - Japanese Saloon-like atmosphere where you can hit the piss, eat good food then sing some karaoke!

Kai on King - King st Newtown. One of the best sushi bars I've been too in Sydney. Always fresh, excellent prices. Plus they had a stunning waitress there last yr :(

If you don't mind not so traditional types of Japanese food I would say Musashi near Capitol Theater is a good start or there's this new place in Sussex st (walk down from Liverpool st its on the right hand side) called Takeru. Both of those places have pretty good foods and quite affordable. At any night expect to stand in the queue for at least around 20 to 30 minutes though. Oh yeah there's also one more place on top of Oporto opposite Entertainment Centre which specialised in ramens but also other normal meals.

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
