Exceptional restaurant. 20 courses for a set price, and some of those most delicious Japanese food we've had. A few things we'd never tried before too, which was special - abalone being one of them. We were absolutely satisfied by the end of it - really exceptional value for money. Service and vibe were extremely authentic - Jiho and his team are beautiful people and very passionate about what they do. Currently BYO, which was great for us, although they have great menu for those who are so inclined.

The Omakase experience at chef Jiho's is an intimate and memorable experience. The chef is truly passionate with Japanese cuisine and he served guests a very delicate, exquisite, and generous Omakase. The restaurant is tiny and the whole dinner lasts 3-3.5 hours, so it would be most enjoyable if experienced with a group of close friends for special occasions or with business associates.

We went during lunch instead of dinner to try the experience. Since the price was unbelievably cheap, we didn’t have high expectations — but the dishes turned out to be incredibly good for the price. We were a bit disappointed that only three pieces of sushi were served, but the other dishes more than made up for it! We’re definitely planning to go back for dinner next time. If you just want a simple experience, trying the lunch menu isn’t a bad idea. It was a lunch that made us look forward to dinner.

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.

This is our first visit. Unlike many other omakase places there’s only one seating so there’s no rushing through. Chef Jiho is very approachable and we especially like him spending time to explain his thoughts and experience of Japanese cuisine and cooking. We enjoy the food, the chat and the experience.
