We got there at 1956 and they stop taking orders at 2000. We had about four minutes for all three of us to pick a meal and place our order. With that being said, I'm not sure we got a full look at the menu but we're very happy with our selection. The food was delicious, filling, and very reasonably priced. One thing they did not do is refill our water. This seems to be a common thing in Sydney so maybe people don't drink much water or maybe you have to ask. We haven't quite figured that out yet.

Chicken bun - Got one of each = Chicken, pulled pork, ebi. All were good, but small portions. Promotion = 3 for $21AUD. Tori Shoyu Ramen - Good, but barely enough for one person. Small portions. Beer tasters - Orion Black & Suntory Malt; both were good. The Orion Black won! Condiments - Good selection, but did not want to take away from their signature flavors, so did not use or try. Atmosphere - Cool decor, see pictures. Beautiful bar, but no one was sitting there? Chef bar seating, perfect for single people. Semi open kitchen, sushi bar open kitchen.

With relatively few staff that have to multitask between assembling, serving and taking orders, the queue rapidly lengthened behind us as dinner hours began. We ordered the karage bowl, plain wagyu bowl, the teriyaki chicken salad, assortment of side dishes and the matcha milk. The fried chicken is lightly battered and has a strong soy sauce flavor, topped with a layer of mayo. While the slightly undersized pieces have just came out from the fryer, the exterior barely have any crisp and is quite oily, while the interior is a little overcooked. The beef, different from its thick and succulent appearance on the menu, is overcooked and stringy. However, the flavoring on point and the topped spring onions are cut perfectly. Nothing special about the salad, and the same for the self-served takoyaki-on-a-skewer and cold tofu with sliced spring onions. The self-serve matcha milk was a pleasant surprise, with the right level of sugar and bitterness, only lacking some creaminess.

Undecided between Japanese and Korean food for lunch or dinner?…read moreWell this place has the answer. Katsubi is actually fusion between Japanese donburi and famous Korean bibimbab... Enough for the introduction, and I'm sold already since I am a big fan of these 2 type of foods. It started in NZ, and now has 9 shop around Kiwi Land.. And I think this is the first shop in Sydney. It located on Myers food court... I know I know... Food court food... But this wasn't my first time I tried this place and I was actually hooked up with nice, tasty and cheap option for lunch. So, to confused you all with this fusion food, I did ordered medium size take away "surf and turf" Katsubi style... Crispy octopus tentacles and spice pork... I was keep quite during my meal and enjoy it very much, consider $7 for this meal, this can't go wrong or get complaint. Both protein are deliciously prepared and those tentacles were so tender ..
