Had dinner and drinks here on a Tuesday. Was quite busy and looked to be a bit understaffed. A bit cramped and very hot inside, so expect that if it's a hot day. We had trouble flagging down staff a number of times to get drinks and order more food. The food was excellent however some items were very slow. We had sake and cocktails and 2 rounds of food, but still ended up getting a dish refunded as it hadn't turned up by the time we were done. The raspberry lemon sake was delish and the coconut creme brulee with sesame gelato was next level! We'll definitely be back. Great for a casual dinner with good food and drinks. Couldn't find any copies of drinks menu online so have included.

We had lunch at Mr Tanaka's. Absolutely love the food. Very fresh and authentic. Our favourites are Tuna Tataki, grilled salmon, tempura soft shell crab. The tuna tataki was fragrant as they have added lots of sesame seeds. Grilled Salmon was crispy on the outside yet soft inside. Just melts in your mouth. Tempura soft shell crab was just yum. Staff members are very polite and prompt as well. Seating is spacious. Will definitely recommend.

1) The service was incredibly slow. We ordered three items. They only delivered two. The third one never came. They skipped our table many times to serve those who came after us. 2) The portion was very small. We ordered from the “Share” section. We received two spring-roll sized items that were cut into half. Don’t understand how to share such small portion. Overall, do not recommend and will never come back.

We had dinner at this restaurant. The service was great, the staff were very attentive to us. Food were great as well but have some comments about it: fried chicken was a bit salty for me. Pork belly, the meat itself is a bit bland that’s why you have the sauce for it. Beef tatak was delicious.

While the service was good, the food at this Japanese restaurant was a total letdown and ruined our night. The sake tasted watered down, the renkon chips were rock hard, the tuna tataki lacked freshness, and the karaage chicken was both oily and overcooked. And don't even get me started on the Osaka balls - they were just flour bombs with barely any octopus inside. Easily the worst Japanese restaurant experience I've had.

Great tasting Japanese Restaurant in Ellerslie. Menu has plenty of variety, but did lack child friendly options. The 'Share' dishes are a great way to try lots of different dishes and the Yakatori-style Sticks come in pairs. The Mains/Robata were really good value and the Waitress recommended the Angus Rib-eye, which was really good.
