Two of received their dishes after 10 or so minutes then two of us received them at 5 minute intervals about 15 minutes after the first two dishes. This resulted in the first two finishing their meals before ours even arrived. The food itself was quite pleasant with modern presentation and flavour hitting the right notes. In closing, the long waiting times put a sour note on the whole experience, and the food didn't make up the difference. Food 5.510 Service 3.5/10 Decor 7/10

Disappointing. I gave it 3 stars because the food was fresh, well presented, and reasonable value…read more(I had the lunch special of a meat and vegetable dish, miso shiru, salad and rice). The miso shiru was delicious. The salad was average. The meat and vege dish was somewhat bland, but the rice was not Japanese rice as far as I could tell, it was just bland Sunrice or similar. If any of the staff actually asked how my meal was, I would ask what type of rice it is, but despite being very quiet and my leaving half my meal uneaten, nobody has approached me. I wish I'd gone around the corner to Motto Motto, their rice is good and they're cheaper!

The service was terrible. We called the day before to make reservations so we could sit at the…read moregrill for a special occasion. They asked us to come a little later than we originally wanted so they could guarantee us a seat at the grill. When we arrived they had no seats at all for us despite the reservation. We waited outside for about ten minutes before having our party of 5 seated at a booth clearly made for 4, and not the grill. We were then left for over 20 minutes without anyone coming to take our order. They very nearly ruined a family celebration. Do yourself a favour, don't go here. Anywhere else at Chermside will have better service.

The place was full packed when we came (it was a very occupiee Sunday lunch time). So we expected…read moreto wait long for our food (and yes we waited a bit longer than what we expected). Just a tip, if you like extra noodles, it's for free, you just have to ask the staff at the counter for the free kaedama. There was also a promo for having a green tea soft serve for a dollar. The green tea ice cream was the best.

Wow! Really good authentic Japanese food, fast and cheap :-)…read moreThey were flat out, with people queueing for tables at 1pm on a Saturday, but the service was fast and we had our food in less than 10 minutes. My daughter and I had a karaage curry bowl, gouza, and potato salad with sesame dressing and OMG I haven't tasted food like this since I lived in Japan many years ago. It was soooooo good! They use good Japanese rice and cook it to perfection, so you can eat just the bare rice and it will taste delicious. This cost me less than $30, so the same price as cheap food from the food court but so much better. And the staff are lovely too, very helpful with all my questions, even though they were really busy.

Mura has a train where all the plates are the same price which is always a great idea. The food is…read morealways fresh and delicious. We usually get some items from the train and get some made to order items, maybe some tempura prawns or veggies, or a katsu don. They do dine in or takeaway which is handy.

Love this place, come here three times a week to satisfy my sushi craving. The vegetable tempura…read moreleaves a little to be desired, but you can't really go past $3.50 a plate in the suburbs.

The sushi here is hard to beat. Nice and fresh and lots a variety. The other dishes are great as…read morewell and all very reasonably priced. best tip is grab some then just duck down side street and eat it on the waterfront at Sandgate.

Dying for some good sashimi and sushi? Look no further and stop in this place!…read more Highly recommend their long sushi rolls. Especially the spider crab roll.. simply delicious with a spicy mayo dipping sauce. Never have they failed with their sashimi. Always plated with style and fresh! If you want a decent lunch, have a look at their obento menu. You can't go wrong with that either! It is pretty fair for lunch that's made with care!
