I was looking for a good Japanese restaurant in the Gold Coast and found this gem despite seeing a recent 2-star review. Run by a real authentic Japanese family. Great food. Must try tempura Udon and Japanese curry. Much better food than most places in Melbourne and Sydney for similar price points. Overall reasonable priced for great Japanese cuisine. I hope the locals here support this gem of a restaurant so next time I come back to the Gold Coast I will have the opportunity to try some more.

Some of the best Japanese food we’ve ever had, so many incredible options everything we ordered received high praise as of the presentation and amazing taste. Staff were very helpful and friendly all of our food came out within 15 minutes after ordering. The restaurant itself had a comfortable and authentic atmosphere we very much enjoyed our dining experience and will hope to come back again!

5stars for everything! Food are so good, the quality is on point. I ordered fried oyster(kaki), beef tataki, tofu agedashi, crab tempura, cold soba, and grilled salmon teriyaki. Every dish are made out of delicacy, I went there for dinner, wasn’t planning on coming back, but at the end I still came back for lunch before I leave Gold Coast. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Definitly recommend. Also, please be patient as I think it runs with very few people 2-3people as I can see. So, I assume it is a family run business with a high quality control of the food.

We enjoyed a beautiful meal here tonight with our 3 pre/teen children. The quality of the food was amazing - after eating out at quite a few local restaurants on the Gold coast, Daiki restored our faith that it was still possible to get a good, healthy meal as a family without breaking the bank. We each ordered different dishes. Everything was excellent & delicious - clearly made with high quality ingredients, and lovely attention to detail. For example, we were completely charmed at being offered a selection of pottery cups to choose from for our hot sake. Service was wonderful, and our food was served very quickly. Thank you so much for a beautiful meal. We feel nourished. PS We also ended up ordering dessert - we highly recommend the custard pudding (like a creme brulee) and the mango sorbet.

Beautiful, homely dishes cooked with love. There are only three people it seemed that runs the whole place, but they did it so quickly, competently and with great customer service. The food is so delish - the sashimi are nice enough but what is amazing is the duck, the wagyu tataki (special), Japanese chicken curry and chicken kaarage. This place is so under the radar - but I will definitely revisit it next time!
