    The Yakitory was fantastic. Very interesting Whiskey based cocktails, who knew it was so versatile. Try the Whiskey flights(degustation). Make sure to book as and be ready to spend some money.

    Fantastic bar, the grilled stuff is a great match for the Japanese whisky. Very decent range on offer. Good for a casual one on one meet or small groups.

    For the whisky lover go for the Akashi White Oak for something smooth and subtle. For cocktails, the Old Fashioned with Ron Zacapa 23 is delicious.

    2% surcharge on all EFTPOS. Food was excellent. Small portions but delicious. You go to this place for the alcohol and atmosphere-not the food. However the foods a great bonus. $$$$ Goyza was superb

    Harajuku is an excellent girly drink. Easy to drink and so delicious. Also pork belly, cheese sausage skewers are delicious.

    Really good Japanese beer and whisky selection. Give the cocktails a miss and try the Koshihikari Echigo. If you want a seat, get in early.

    Whisky lovers will enjoy their Japanese selection, but your not-so-Whisky-loving friends will be very happy with the cocktails they offer.

    Spacious bar new in surry hills. Although slow, tasty cocktails. Thigh & shallot yakatori, lotus root chips all tasty options. Fairly priced but not overly expensive

    Yes yes, whiskey, but the Zacapa 23 Old Fashioned is *very* well made!
