Mooloolaba

About the restaurant

Sakana is consistently rated as Mooloolaba's No.1 Sushi Restaurant. Unassuming and tucked discreetly into the side of its sister restaurant Fish on Parkyn, Sakana is a local sushi institution for a reason. Super fresh and straight from the dock just behind us, we artfully prepare the most pristine ingredients for your enjoyment. We offer you an authentic Japanese Cuisine experience, at affordable prices in a relaxed and casual setting.

We sat at an outside table for lunch, which was nice because there was a cool breeze. The food was delicious although service was a little slow (but polite) as it was extremely busy. I would definitely go back.
