    I don't usually post reviews for anything but I thought I absolutely had to write a review for this! My partner and I love korean/japanese bbq and we tried a variety of different buffets in Adelaide and Melbourne but this has become our top pick. Their variety of sushi, quality meats, yukhoe and tataki were favourites all for their premium option at $64 per person. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was great. Will come again once we visit Sydney for another trip.

Like had to be my fav Jap all you can eat.. meat was soft juicy and amazing.. i highly rated it.. But sadly second time I came i was a little disappointed.. wagyu was a little chewy, beef tongue was frozen, but overall I was still happy with it, but not sure now if I'll come back especially for the premium price.

    We had the most amazing Valentine’s Day at Shinmachi! From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional, and our wonderful server Yaiza made the evening extra special. She always goes above and beyond with her warm, genuine care—she truly knows how to make us feel like family! They even surprised us with a beautiful rose, which was such a thoughtful touch. As for the food, it was absolutely delicious. We started with the edamame with furikake, tamari agadeshi tofu, kingfish tacos, and takoyaki—each dish was packed with flavor and perfectly prepared. But the highlight, as always, was the ramen! My partner’s favorite is the black garlic ramen, and it never disappoints. As for me, I can’t get enough of the Hokkaido scallop tonkotsu miso butter ramen—it’s my all-time favorite. We can’t recommend Shinmachi enough. The combination of fantastic food, incredible cocktails, and Yaiza’s exceptional service keeps us coming back time and time again. We absolutely love this place and can’t wait for our next visit!

    Yakitori Jin never gets it wrong! The food is fantastic. The owners and staff are the best. The must try dishes are the Kingfish with Apple Salad. Divine! Eggplant with Miso sauce and Sashimi Tacos - Yum! We have been weekly visitors for the past 4 yrs. We've tried others but nothing compares.
