    Kanda - The entrance to Kanda, located on the Elliot St end of The Stand Arcade

    Kanda

    (1 review)

    This newly opened Japanese restaurant hidden under Auckland's CBD (a second branch of Kanda, the…read morefirst one located at East Auckland) is spacious and slightly expensive (for comparison, Daikoku sells 5pcs of takoyaki/octopus balls for $6 while Kanda sells 6pcs of takoyaki/octopus balls for $9) but well worth it. Their food is affordable (ranging from $9 to $21, see the menu photo for more information) I first found out about Kanda from two people that were showing people their menu on Queen Street and I was really interested, so I decided to check the place out a few weeks later. Turns out, Kanda is located on the basement of The Strand shopping arcade arcade, and to get there you can enter from their stairs (which has a great decor by the way) on the Elliot Street end of The Strand shopping arcade. I was greeted by a very warm and friendly woman who patiently attended my sister, grandmother and I - including our questions, even going to the kitchen to double check her answers for some even if we didn't ask her to! The restaurant itself is well decorated and very spacious - much more that it's nearby neighbors such as Daikoku, which has been established for longer and is nearly always crammed with people when it's dinner. They offered a lunch and dinner menu and an all you can eat choice (which seemed very tempting and I am more than willing to test and review soon) Yes, it is slightly more expensive for their snacks but they prepare and garnish them well - I ordered two Takoyakis for a test-run and they decorated it complete with extra seaweed cuttings on top (yay!) and to top things off, for this month only (their first month) they also have a free drink promotion. This hidden gem in the city is definitely worth checking out if you're looking for well prepared Japanese food in the city with a spacious/well decorated and clean restaurant, even if it means paying a few extra dollars for snacks that other restaurants (then again, their food is affordable so you can splurge on snacks, perhaps?)

    After debating which sushi place to try, we chose this one , located 5 minutes walk from the train…read morestation . It looked closed at first, but after trying the door we saw a couple of diners sitting in dark lightning. Immediately we were seated by a lady who gestured us to a seat. The booths were comfy, so we began to browse the menu. Each page held a lot of pictures of signature dishes. To drink I chose a reasonably price cocktail called Grand Slam £4.50..he had a asahi. These drinks took awhile to arrive but I understood why when I saw mine. It was split into three colours, unfortunately it didn't taste as good as it looked. Right food: tuna maki , £4 8 pieces, salmon maki wasn't not on the menu , these were made by request. Tuna sashimi,£8, nigiri and finally a seafood hotpot for myself and he had the spicy pork Raman, choosing udon noodles. The presentation was good, tuna was medium quality and the sushi reasonably sized. After all the sushi was consumed, the mains arrived. The broth in mine was tasty however I only found one scallop in my dish. His was also satisfactory for the price. I think the rating goes mainly to the service, as she was very pleasant and asked chef to create dishes that were not on the menu. The sushi was good. But when you have tried a lot like I have it becomes harder to be wowed.

    This is a new Japanese restaurant that has just opened near the train station in the City Centre…read more Its actually the building attached to The Leadmill but on the main road. Has its own car park which is convenient. Inside the restaurant is very nicely decorated with a very Japanese trendy Tokyo look which is different to other Japanese restaurants in Sheffield. Greeted with enthusiasm by the waitering staff and shown a nice picture menu of the sushi on offer. I opted to sit on the Teppan Grill table and the chef kindly introduced me dishes and how they would be presented. Very friendly atmosphhere. Ordered a small Sake Wine and selected Sirloin steak cooked with Enoki mushrooms. Chef went to prepare whilst I waited and admired the decor. Within a few minutes, I was presented with a fresh sirloin which was instantly cooked in front of me which I wanted Medium Rare. Excellent quality of steak and the taste was unbelievalbe. Price of £19.80 including 2 sides, miso soup and rice together with the theatre and entertainment value is a steal. Will come back again and again and again!

    Usually I go to Kyatoya nearby but this was closed on a Monday so this was the back up plan…read more Stepping in it was definitely more of a takeaway place than sit in. It was so small you had to go through the kitchen to use the toilet. The choice of food and drink did surprise me.. how could they find room to stock it all? With loads of different sake, juices and wines. Selecting a glass of plum wine ..himself green tea we pawed the menu. There was a great use of pictures which helped us decide. From various sushi Nigiri, temaki, sashimi etc to noodles and ramen dishes. I found the sushi a little over priced to the average sushi joint of this nature..we decided on the 12 piece sashimi and sushi platter ..for mains I chose my usual spicy seafood broth with udon noodles, beef and kimchi. Himself had the beef yakisoba. We inhaled the sushi as soon as it hit the table. It was good healthy amounts of tuna and everything tasted fresh. The wasabi did not mix well with the soya though.. My main was a far cry from what I had at Baekdu the week previous. This was packed with veggies..tender beef and seafood. The broth was also excellent. Looking up I could see my other half wolf down his..giving it the thumbs up . Overall the service was very good and food was a stark contrast to the restaurant. I would probably use this more as a takeaway if I were local but I wouldn't go there to eat again as didn't find it relaxing enough.

    We just happened to stumble across the newly opened Sakura House on Saturday night whilst exploring…read moreDidsbury. It seemed as though a lot of locals did the same too, as people kept popping in to investigate whilst we were eating, in the hope of an opportunistic free table. Despite only opening three weeks ago Sakura Houses' popularity is clear, the restaurant was packed but it's also only 6 tables, which may play a part! Either way we were lucky enough to snaffle a table for two off-the-cuff as there was a 45 minute space before a booking and our waitress was happy to make time and space for us. Due to being short of time we decided to stick to a simple meal each, so we didn't sample the sushi - which seems to be the main fare. I opted for a comforting plate of pork katsu curry and it was very tasty and freshly cooked, so fresh I almost burnt my mouth on the cutlet! My only issues were that it is currently cash only and that my meal came a good 5-10 minutes after my partners - but I honestly think these are just opening month niggles. Sakura House isn't fancy, it's an honest little restaurant with lovely staff and I think it's a welcome and refreshing addition to the area.
