The açaí bowl was very good; however, we found the service disinterested and the atmosphere lacking. If you’re in the area and need a gluten-free bite, it’s worth a stop, but I wouldn’t recommend going out of your way to visit this location.

Very authentic experience. Only one man running the whole restaurant, from catching the fish in the fish tank to cleaning tables, taking orders/payments and cooking. He used a translator device with every customer to explain how to eat the noodles. The soba noodles were 100% buckwheat, so gluten-free, as was the broth. He had an excellent understanding of gluten-free. The food was exceptional would recommend making a reservation, lots of people were turned away as it was full. Only 4 tables thar seat 2 people in the small restaurant.

As a gluten free diner I have been craving simple eggs on toast, and this place offered gluten free avocado on toast with poached eggs, so I ordered some and an orange juice. It’s was super basic and small. There was no seasoning or special flavours to the avocado, which for the $40 AUD I paid (shocking I know but I was craving badly) It was neatly presented, but would have expected some kind of elevated dish. I had to salt and pepper it myself just to get some flavour. The bread a quarter of the size of regular bread. The service was lovely.

After traveling in Japan and going to various sushi restaurants I have no doubt this has been the best. The quality of the fish and the cutting skills of the chef were astonishing, the fish melted in your mouth. I really recommend the squid sashimi, and the namida rolls.
The service was excellent, they were understanding of gluten free products (which is very rare) and overall admirably cordial.
We went early in the evening and the atmosphere was authentic and enjoyable.

The restaurant is a teppanyaki place that we just happened to stumble on. We were the only ones there and had a private room. They were so friendly and accommodating. She said she had others ask and asked if she could keep the tamari packet so she could order some. They don't have a gluten free menu but are somewhat aware. The cooktop was extremely clean. We brought our own GF tamari and the chef used it to make our fried rice which was amazing! The vegetables and meat were only seasoned with salt, butter and the oil that he infused with fresh sliced garlic that he had crisped in first The Oomi wagyu sirloin from the Shiga prefecture was hand down the best we've ever had. The chef melted some of the steak fat to cook the meat to perfection. They even gave us a copy of the cow's birth certificate with nose print
