Sure you can absolutely spoil yourself rotten with a $33 set hot pot, set lunch or set dinner menus (including miso soup, sushi & sashimi, gyoza, teriyaki chicken, tempura, ice cream* and a bottle of house wine if more that one person orders), but I always find myself in here for a late-lunch, post-beach, sushi-in-face-stuffing. The sashimi is especially fresh and even for someone who doesn't often go for norimaki, the rainbow rolls are a must-order. With $3 BYO, this traditional Japanese spot is a cheap and cheerful dinner date. Or a date for one. I won't judge. *no, unfortunately not tempura ice cream, although that would certainly be a star-raising quality!

Ging Sushi Cafe in Dee Why is a true Japanese Dining experience, they don't just serve raw fish,…read morebut they serve Sake. Ging offers a wide range of Sushi, they serve Sashimi, Tempura, Baby Roll, Special Roll, Hand Rolls, plus they serve a further range of Japanese Cuisine. The Teriyaki is particularly good, I went for the chicken, but they also have a delicious Karaage Chicken, which is marinated and deep fried. If you are into the raw fish, you might want to give the Beef Tataki a go (it is raw too), I think for me I will stick with the Teriyaki. Ging is great if you want to experiment and get a taste of Japan.

The menu overseen by Chef Shaun Presland and Head Chef Shoji Toru offers a superb section of nigiri, sashimi and sushi rolls, all made to order from the freshest of local seafood. Saké Manly's drinks list showcases the finest of Japanese spirits, whiskies and over 30 bins of sake as well as umeshu, shochu and flavoured sake. Four seasonally changing spritz feature on the menu, all designed to match the light, floral notes of Japanese cuisine. (Stolen from the website...very useful information) The views are nice, not spectacular though...while it is a waterfront restaurant, if you don't get a good seat with a view you will be stuck watching all the folks on the wharf. We were a walk in and scored a table in the middle. I think you need to make reservations for a table with a view or for a big party...or maybe just get there really early. This place is lit! Great ambiance, modern decor and plenty of space. Be aware of the prices on the menu though...is is after all a Waterfront restaurant...so value will be an afterthought. ~ spicy brussel sprouts - 4.5/5 One of the suggested appetizers that our enthusiastic server convinced us to get... Basically a perfect appetizer! Delicious, charred, good flavor. ~ glacier51toothfish saikyo yaki - 4.5/5 I feel a bit duped on this one... Patagonian toothfish! It's amazing! "From Australian waters" ummm...in the states we call it Chilean Seabass! It is an excellent fish, buttery, flaky, light...delicious. Problem is our waitress advertised it as something that can only be found in Australian waters...um...NO. Sooo...I was under the impression I was enthusiastically wolfing down some exotic local Aussie catch! ~ sashimi moriawase - 4.5/5 Brilliant! Just Amazing!! Just not for 2 people...I could scarf this down myself. Amazing presentation...edible art, small pieces of fish, but very fresh. ~ From Japan with love - 3/5 A Gin bowl...whatever that is suppose to be. Nice refreshing drink, nothing stands out about it. IMHO the description sounds better than the drink tastes. All the food here is very very good. You are paying a premium for waterfront dining, so I had to ding about 1/2 star off. Definitely no value here; while every thing was Brilliant, nothing was outstanding. Good place to take a date, but be prepared to drop $$$

It's actually a nicer looking restaurant for the Manly area, very clean and contemporary. The service was very good (which is unusual for Aus), I think they're catering to the tourists that visit. We tried the tempura, it was lightly breaded which was nice but it had little flavor. The spider roll with the soft shell crab was nice, very light! The nigiri eel was the best!! And we ordered a dragon roll for dessert which was a very cool experience and tasted delicious too! This place does get busy during the holiday season so book a table. And while Manly is a casual place, people tended to dress up just a little nicer here but you still had a few locals in beach attire but not many.
