Not that I'm complaining because where it's situated is convenient for me to get to plus there's easy parking. Shinbashi has a $35 all-you-can-eat Japanese BBQ which is always a popular option. I fyou go this route, make sure to try their fantastic wagyu and marble beef. However, my husband and I always splurge on their $99 Signature Selection for two. It includes these tasty additional extras like Bacon asparagus and Bacon rice cakes. There's also this buttery cheese, sweet potato dish which takes about twenty minutes to cook up on the BBQ but is worth the wait. The service here is great. They always remember to refill my green tea and there's this delicious complimentary soup which comes in a teapot that you can easily fill up on and ruin your dinner if you're not careful. If you live further afield, Shinbashi Yakiniku is definitely worth the drive out to Underwood.

Being a Japanese BBQ place you basically cook the meat on the hot plate in front of you and dip in delicious sauces before noming down. Staff are genuinely helpful. There's Japanese rice beer to match, though I didn't see how that was going to be consumed amongst the plethora of meats in front of me. Also good to know - the meat is delicious, because it is marbled with delicious fat. I went on a Tuesday night and it was packed. Defs popular amongst the locals.. Or those who know its there. So man up, make the drive, and give this place a go :)

We made evening reservations and our table was the best one in the restaurant. Our table overlooked the river and we had a gorgeous view of the Story Bridge. Our host and waiter, Ming was super friendly and welcomed us. We started off with miso soup which was nice and warmed us up on a cool winter evening. The miso soup had tofu, seaweed, and spring onions. Then, we had a starter dish of seared salmon and scallops while we wanted for our large platter. The salmon and scallops were incredible. The salmon was fresh and melted in my mouth. I am a big fan of scallops and loved the taste combined with the salmon. I wish we would have ordered a few more plates of the dish... We waited for our large platter that showcased several rolls such as the fresh salmon, tempura fish, and fried crab sticks. The unagi (eel) roll was nice but could have had a little more eel sauce. Then, the tempura prawn roll and spicy salmon with avocado were tasty too. The salmon was not spicy though. I enjoyed the sushi thoroughly and didn't way to stop. No one at the table did. Four of gals who love sushi shared the large platter. It's a good amount if you are not all starving. I recommend this place. I've heard they are super busy for lunch so opting for dinner was a wise choice. We felt comfortable and in no rush to finish our meal. I can't wait to go back and try out more dishes! They have only opened for a few months so I am so lucky I knew from early on so now I can satisfy my sushi craving. Best part of it all, I heard about this place through word of mouth! Hope you have a great experience like me when you go.

The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner however they are closed in between. Upon entering you are presented with menus and are able to choose a table to sit at. Their menu is very broad ranging from meat to ramen to fish and sushi. Ive been about five times already and always stick with the sushi while my partner orders a meal. The white dragon roll, pink dragon roll, and california roll are my favorites. Its very hard to find a sushi spot in Australia that makes actual rolls instead of nigiri so the moment I discovered this place I was hooked. The quality is outstanding and sauces they add are so delicious! My partner is in love with their garlic chicken and orders it each time. Prices are very reasonable and service is usually very fast. Highly recommend checking this place out.
