It really is very good in the price range. We take advantage of the lunchtime special at least once a week and overall Musashi is established as a top 5 fixture in our minds.

The food is consistently of high quality, especially the fish. The sashimi is as good as anywhere. There are dishes for all ages and tastes. My young teenagers love it and ask to go there for special occasions. It has a relaxed, friendly, welcoming atmosphere. I have been eating at Sakanaya since it opened, several years.

Very disappointing. I got chicken sushi, which had a fish bone in it. The flavours were average, and the food was expensive for one of the worst japanese meals I've ever had!

Basically we had a group of 4. The Miso Katsu pork cutlet was hard to chew and chewy. The Otoro tuna sashimi we had wasnt the real thing that melts in the mouth. Again stringy and chewy. The appetizers such as fried calamari was tiny portion, consisting of 15 small tentacles in 6 pieces which cost $8 The atmosphere is good, but service was really average. Probably wont go back to the place again - there are better ones out there which has more authentic Japanese menu like Nikishi in Botany or Katsura in city. I think this restaurants menu has been westernized to cater for those living in Remuera This Japanese restaurant caters for the taste of those not looking for authentic Japanese cuisine.

Funky restroom is part of fun as well as the dessert - had an ice cream in espresso. Yum! Great food is even better with BYO option.

Ambiance was nice and felt authentic. The food was delicious and the smiling staff, made you feel welcome. I did struggle to find a free park nearby but this is a problem anywhere in the city. Two big thumbs up. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience at Ken Yakatori. Ambiance was nice and felt authentic. The food was delicious and the smiling staff, made you feel welcome.
