Our stop in Wellington was quick and brief, however, we knew we were hungry. What better way to…read moresatisfy that hunger with All You Can Eat, Korean BBQ? This place is legit. When we saw it pop up on yelp we weren't sure if it was really open since it only had 1 review and no pictures. But since the review was pretty fresh we took a chance. When we arrived near by we parked and started following the GPS. It is located in the back of a courtyard area. It's a bit hidden but there a few signs pointing. Also, follow the meat fragrance! When you get inside, they had aluminum foil for you to put on top of the grill. First time, I had seen this technique used, but it makes sense. Instead of replacing the grill, they just replace pieces of aluminum foil. They clean it at the end but at least throughout the meal you don't have to get a new grill. All of their meats was delicious, but our favorite was the pork belly. They also had a wide variety of sides and other traditional dishes on the buffet line. I thoroughly enjoyed their korean fried chicken. They only brought out small batches so when they refilled you had to jump on it. Value was definitely there.

There are meats from brisket, spicy pork, pork belly, bulgogi and also ban chan dishes like kimchee, seaweed, broccoli, fish cake. Everything I had was similar to the one back home. But honestly it could be a little bit better. Back home in Hawaii gen bbq is more flavorful with the sauce as they have green tea salt, sweet soy sauce and sesame oil dipping sauce. It could be more tasty with the right sauce. Oh and the soju is on point as well. But this place is not bad I defiantly would recommend if your craving all you can eat.

The vibe was also great with them playing music with TVs and music videos playing. They also have heaters above the tables which would make it a great spot even through winter. Overall great spot and I would highly recommend stopping by!

Unfortunately, the batter on the outside of the fish and turnover was undercooked and the chips a bit soft. I was really hoping for good food based on all previous reviews. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because the lady at the counter was kind enough to let me come back and pay in cash because my credit card wasn't working. She even let me take my food with me, trusting I would come back to pay. Something that would never happen in the states.

My husband and I lived in Japan for a couple years. When we travelled to NZ at the beginning of…read morethis year we stumbled upon Kazu when we were looking for a place to have dinner. This was the last leg of our trip and for the most part we had done things pretty well on the cheap. A visit to Kazu cost us three times as much as any other meal we'd had for the simple fact that everything was so good and we were on nostalgia overload. When we stepped into the izakaya, we were immediately greeted with the familiar "irrashaimase!" The decor was definitely authentic. Most of the restaurant was Western-style seating with tables and chairs, but there was a raised platform section covered in tatami where you remove your shoes to sit cross-legged on a zaisu (legless chair). The walls were decorated with Japanese calligraphy and ukiyo-e prints as well as some Japanese beer advertisements which are always a little hilarious. We were seated by a friendly young Japanese woman and given the menus. So many pictures of delicious foods! And the alcohol menu was one of the best parts: a double-sided A4 page full of Japanese beer (including Orion from Okinawa, which we've never seen in Melbourne), sake, shochu, umeshu, chuhai and red and white wine!!! There was even ramune for the non-drinkers! Our eyes popped out of our heads. I had a few chuhais and my husband loved the Orion. We ordered edamame, spicy soft shell crab, chicken kamameshi rice, a sushi roll, and a few other things. For dessert they had my number one favorite Japanese sweet of all times: taiyaki! I hadn't had a yummy fish-shaped pancake filled with red bean paste in far too long. After dinner we had a little chat to the owner in Japanese and told him how much we loved the meal. He was friendly and we loved the chat. This was, hands down, the best meal we had across 10 days on the North Island. The only sad part was leaving knowing that we wouldn't be back for a while. We didn't even mind that we spent around $150 between the two of us just pigging out and indulging on food we rarely get. It was a feast and I highly recommend this place to everyone.

These days wherever you go (except Japan) it's hard to find a Japanese that's authentic, they're usually fusions or with Chinese influence. Kazu's menu has a great selection of food and drinks, many types of soju to choose from as well as chu-hais etc. The decor was simple and cosy, they also had an elevated tatami seating area at the front of the restaurant where customers remove their shoes and sit crosslegged at a low table. The food was banging!! We were an interesting party of four with one pregnant and one gluten free and found the menu to be accommodating for all. The sashi platter was amazing, super fresh raw seafood. The dumplings three ways was also delicious. In fact, everything we ordered was delicious. Would definitely come back again.
