• Japanese • Geelong West

Booked 5 times 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.

Quality of the food was great, but we chose lobster which was not available - seemed a bit weird for a fish and seafood restaurant. We had to ask for a spoon to eat the chowder, and waited too long for our beverages to be served or poured. Understaffing seems to be a problem for what I consider a high priced restaurant on the Geelong waterfront. We spend 323 dollars for three people to dine out with wines, 2-3 courses.

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.
