Stunning eatery, make reservations to avoid disappointment. We loved the Hokkaido scallops, everything in the dish worked well. The jappyslaw was so fresh and delightful. The shitake mushroom agedashi tofu was delightful and had so much umami, it was one of my favourites. The sashimi selection was generous and bursting with flavour, the row on top was a nice touch. The nigiri selection was excellent, but the rice was a little soft. We loved the salmon a d cream cheese roll, unexpectedly good. Nice sake and lemon sake cocktail. Would definately come back.

Our last night in Cairns and we had not tried any Japanese restaurants, yet Cairns probably had access to the best range of fresh fish in Australia!!! There were several to choose from, but we trusted Google reviews to find what we believed might suit us. Only a 10 minute walk from the hotel, we found this relatively small very Japanese oriented restaurant. Although we had no booking, they provided a table and menus for our selection. It is always of note, when you see all staff being Japanese, and this is no different as they are family owned. There was only one chef and I felt it might be a slow delivery, but as we watched him prepare our meal, his versatility was unbelievable, and food was served from our smiling waitress in a very short time. We started with Tuna, salmon and Kingfish sashimi and a selection of sushi. I can safely say, the sashimi was the best I have ever tried in Australia, especially the tuna and kingfish. Their beef tataki, although the beef being really good, the sauce left a little to be desired which was a shame as everything else we tried was incredible, including the wagyu. All was washed down with some ice cold Asahi and a jug of warm Saki. Highly recommended!!!

Highly recommend booking ahead because the space is small and doesn’t seat many people. They have a great menu with lots of classic Japanese options, such as sushi, Karaage, edamame. The food didn’t take long to come out, which was great considering they had a full house. The food itself is good quality, made fresh to order. It is one of the better options in Cairns. It didn’t particularly wow us but it filled us up and satisfied our craving for Japanese food.

Great stop for a perfect lunch. We had Shitake tofu, assorted chefs sashimi and the chicken bento box between 2 of us. Wow. Everything was beautiful, service was just lovely, never had better karaage or tariake. Thank you

Simply delicious! The scallops, sashimi and agedashi were just out of this world. Cute little restaurant with smiley staff. I wish I could pack it in my suitcase to bring home!

Hands down the best Japanese restaurant in Cairns. Hospitality, drinks and food were all amazing. The chef clearly takes pride in what he does and it shows with the taste and detail in every dish. We enjoyed our dining experience so much we booked immediately for our next night, which was unfortunately our last in Cairns. Our only regret was not finding this place sooner. A must when in Cairns!
