   We ordered the pork and cabbage stew and the beef brisket to share among the 2 of us, and it was not extremely filling, but the superb taste made up for it. I highly recommend ordering those two dishes and pairing them with the sake tasting menu, which we didn't get but would have if we were up for it. We reserved the nook, and it was such a cosy choice, it is next to the kitchen, so there was constant buzzing.

   Food was good but not enough per serving. They could probably serve a bit more on the small dishes.

   Loved the atmosphere and selection of food and drinks! We booked the nook that was available which allowed that extra bit of space which we appreciated given many smaller restaurants only have bar seating. Staff were lovely and ensured we had everything we needed as we were tucked away. Would love to come again!

   My partner and I were very excited to dine at Nomidokoro Indigo to celebrate our anniversary, which the restaurant was aware of as we indicated it in our reservation. While the food was delicious and ambience was great and felt authentic, we had some constructive feedback about the service. First, my partner is vegetarian and the vegetarian options were not pointed out very clearly by our servers. We understood that there weren’t too many veg options (as we checked the menu beforehand), but some more guidance from the servers would have been welcomed, instead of the lacklustre attitude we received. Second, we were told that last orders for food and drinks had to be placed 30 minutes before the end time of our reservation. We understood as there was limited seating in the restaurant but we couldn’t help but felt rushed to leave. Before this point, the servers also didn’t check in with us on the food or refilling drinks so it was too bad that the first touch point was to mention the time we’ll have to leave by. Lastly, while we didn’t expect to receive anything based on the fact that we were celebrating our anniversary at the restaurant, some extra attention to this fact would have been appreciated, especially as this was asked specifically when we reserved the table. We must note that we were greeted very warmly when we first got to the restaurant and the staff member also provided great recommendations to choose a sake, and set up the expectation of a lovely dining experience. But in the end, it felt more like an eat and go meal instead which was too bad.

   Excellent food (check out the sake-steamed baby clams) and great service! Highly recommend Nomidokoro Indigo.

   Great food, great service, great atmosphere, but the place is too small, keeps being interrupted when people tried to walk through. Price is not so cheap as well, we ended up paid $220 for 2 people.

   This was the most authentic Japanese food and restaurant experience I’ve encountered outside of Japan. Was so good! Service was excellent also.

    Still my favourite restaurant in Sydney. Last night was my 4th visit, and I will be returning again. Love this place.
