I love the sushi here. It’s delicious and fresh, the grill salmon is amazing, the chicken katsu/Avo is just the best, and so is everything else on the menu. The bento boxes are great value I think. I order from here once a week and it hasn’t let me down yet. Probably the best small independent sushi place I’ve tried.

I went to this restaurant because it’s close to my place n good reviews. It is OK, but I’ll never say it’s cheap or yum. The prices are not cheap in terms of its portion. Its flavour is over sweet for me. We ordered 4 diferent mains and three of them tasted OK. But, ramen is disappointing. It’s just a koearn instant noodle. The tempura prawn was quite big but tasted bland. Will I go back? Probably not.

An awesome little sushi shop that never fails to impress. Good portion sizes and quiet cheap. Ingredients appear fresh and are always served at an appropriate temperature. Always back for more!

Tried this for the first time yesterday for a late lunch. Even at mid-afternoon on a weekday you’ll find this place has a constant stream of visitors. Most will come from the gym for a healthy quick snack. I tried the chicken katsu bento box which is excellent value for $ 12. Unfortunately my chicken was fried to a crisp(may have been an accident?!). Still I enjoyed the meal which was enough to satisfy me. I liked the addition of dumplings which really made this meal worth every dollar. The miso soup was tasty and included wakame and tofu as all miso soup should. My boyfriend slurped down a piping hot chicken udon which also had a miso soup base. For this reason it made it a bit bland and underwhelming. The soup was topped with flakes of seafood sticks and little fishball shapes. At $ 10 I sort of expected a bigger bowl too. Recommend a skip next time. I’m curious to try their ramen next time as well as their takoyaki.

This Japanese restaurant in Jindalee is quite a simple one. When you walk in you could accidentally mistake it for a bare fish and chip shop. However, the lack of bells and whistles wouldn’t phase you when you actually get to trying their delectable Japanese fares. Their chicken Ramen noodles are a must have, no matter how warm it is outside, this noodle soup always hits the spot. So flavoursome with a kick of spice. For sushi my recommendations would have to be their Chicken Katsu with avacado. The contrast of crunch and softness makes this sushi a pleasure to eat as well as the fact that it’s very yummy. And of course, how could you go past a $ 10BENTOBOX? At this price, it is almost unheard of these days. Despite its lower than average price, they do not compromise its generous serve and quality of food. All I can say is, thank goodness there’s affordable good quality Japanese in the area. No more having to travel inner city or southside for a good Japanese meal. Hooray!

At least, ever since the Sushi Station and Egawa disappeared off the brink of Jindalee(owned by the same people) the people of centenary have long yearned for a good japanese place to get food. Sushi 79 recently opened its doors(November 2011) and it’s a little shop with 2 small tables run by 3 friends who live in Richlands who have never owned a Japanese Restaurant before. They are Japanese for starters I thought this can’t be bad. They cook everything fresh! They sauce everything authentic and when the food is ready(it’s a 2 man kitchen so sometimes you will be waiting a while for your food) it tastes every bit authentic as if you were to go to a Japanese Restaurant in the city. The Yakisoba was really delightful, the vegies were cut delicately just like it should be, the sauce was not overpowering and the noodles were pretty cooked to perfection. The chicken was pre-marinated so tasted super good and it was so yummy my son and I finished it really quick. They also have seaweed, edamame, kyoza(gyoza?) and everything is spelt out for you on the board on the left when you enter. The prices for the entrees are really reasonable starting at $ 3 for the edamame. Along with the freshly made sushi, they have cool bento boxes as well with beef gyudon and chicken katsu, comes with a miso soup, salad and some dumplings with rice. Great value at $ 9-$ 11 depending on which one you want. It would be an idea to pre-order over the phone before you came here for food as they are only 2 men in a big kitchen and still nutting out what it is to handle a semi-busy crowd. I’m a big fan of this place, at last, some yummy Japanese in Jindalee! We’ve been waiting for a long time.
