Sensational sushi!…read more Sushi Bar Genki is reminiscent of sushi bars in Japan with accompanying cries of "welcome" and "thank you" entering and leaving -in Japanese if course! A very comprehensive menu of sushi roll, nigiri, gunkan (yet to try), hand roll, sashimi, tapas and a la carte udon noodles. Asahi beer, sakes, plum wine & hot & cold green tea complete the full Japanese experience. Every plate tried was exceptionally fresh and the service was immediate, friendly and professional. Delightful staff guide us through the iPad ordering system and service is speedy. We are also encouraged to try freshly prepared plates from the train by our chef - a fantastic spicy tuna semi roll & the even tastier seafood deluxe jumbo roll. A perfect combination of train and bar experience with booths or tables for 2 if your personal space is feeling fragile. Oh yeah - sushi heaven!

Without my parents excitement at the novelty of moving sushi wooshing by our booth as we were…read moreeating, or the fact they could order whatever they wanted to eat from the iPad at our table, this place would have initially seemed like any other sushi train in Adelaide to me. You can spend hours being distracted by the iPads on the table or the seemingly family holiday photos of trips throughout Japan on the TV screens. However, it was the food that made it quickly evident why this place has deserved the 5 stars it has been receiving. I am a simple sushi slider and consistency of quality and freshness of fish is the key to a sea-mingly good meal. So here are my top picks: - Arrive between 3-6pm to start with a $5 pint of Asahi and snacks (lotus root crisps and endamame) special. - Start with an $8 plate of kingfish, tuna and salmon sashimi (chunky, tender and shiny raw fish shows signs of great quality and fresh seafood) - Salmon, kingfish and scallop ngiri should be next to add some rice to your palette - Finish up with the double zinger, super spicy hot salmon rolls (that's definitely not what they are called) but you will remember that they say they are super spicy and that without wasabi it's only a little kick to the mouth.

If I recall correctly, this little place opened up some time last year. Until then, most food…read moreplaces in proximity (without dropping any names) catered to a mostly Western cuisine - breads, red meats, potatoes, burgers, etc. When Sakura Sushi opened up, it was a welcome addition to the collection of small shops and cafes found on the edges of the major retail conglomerate that dominates the centre. As part of a chain, the range is quite typical of the usual sushi delis you would come across. The pre-pepared foods you see behind the glass are made on location, and probably on the same day of service too - I felt I should mention this after finding out that some places that sell pre-made sushi packs actually import them from interstate, which is ridiculous. But I digress. They also offer a menu which consists of a variety of dons (rice dishes), soups, noodles, and even a bento option. If it's not busy, they don't take too long to prepare. I find that their seafood-based sushi rolls are hit-or-miss in taste, especially the prawns, but in saying that, I have NOT gotten sick after eating anything from this shop. Their seaweed salad is a lovely, refreshing addition to a meal (great on a hot day), but those who are unfamiliar with seaweed may find the texture a little confronting and off-putting. I am a fan of their chicken salad, which comes with cold, grey-brown noodles, as a light meal, or if I feel like breaking up the handfuls of sushi rolls in my order. Their cold rolls are also quite good when dipped in their sauce. And pop by at a certain time (either 8pm on a weekday, or 6pm on a weekend) - they sells their sushi rolls at $2 each! N.B. I may need to double-check these times.

I stopped in to pick up a couple of sushi rolls for lunch including Terryaki Beef and Terriaki Chicken. At $2.50 each, they were incredibly fresh and came packaged in your typical plastic sushi containers with wasabi and soy sauce fishes. The meat was incredibly nice and flavored very well, the cucumber was cut evenly and presented very nicely (sushi making is an art after all), and the sushi was also served at the right temperature too. Seating was rather nice and the store was very organized with attentive staff who served quickly yet very well. They also had menus on the counter which I decided to take a copy of. It seems like they have a nice range of food and they are open from as early as 8am to as late as 8pm on weeknights, meaning that any time can be sushi time. They also discount sushi in the evening to half price in order to clear and keep produce fresh. I will definitely be coming back for the sushi and probably will try some of the noodle dishes too because the aroma in the store was quite nice as I went at lunch time.

I am in love with this place, as you are probably aware you can get Sushi in North Park but I find…read morethe staff really quite rude and unaccomodating. I have a child with an egg allergy so usually the sushi that she likes needs to be specially made. This was always an epic fail at Sakura Sushi across the road. At 'It's Sushi' the staff are so lovely and fell over themselves to make sure we had exactly what we wanted. The sushi was freshly made and delicious. They were so polite and welcoming that to be honest, even if the sushi was terrible I would go back just for the fantastic customer service. It was just a quick stop for the kids so I didn't get to try all the delicious Sushi they had on offer but I am so excited to have this as my new local. There is a spacious dining room available for table service and you can order from the iPad menu.

I'm pretty sure I'd seen this restaurant a couple of times before while driving up the road, but I…read morenever bothered to go in until my friend told me that there was a good Korean restaurant over on Payneham Road and I realized this was it. Being called Sushi Gallery, I originally thought this might be some small Japanese sushi restaurant, however upon further inspection it became clear that it was not... well not exactly. Now, they do serve sushi (though you have to pre-order in order for them to make it apparently) and they do have some Japanese dishes such as Tonkatsu and Okonomiyaki. However, past that, their primary mains are Korean dishes and from the way design their menu to include Korean words to how they traditionally serve Kimchi and other side dishes along with the mains, I am certain that what this place is primarily a Korean restaurant that happens to serve Japanese food as well. Either way, I'm not too fussed with the details. I like both Korean and Japanese food, so for me I get the best of both worlds. When I was there last, we ordered a Chicken Katsu, a Dolsot Bibimbap and theses Okonomiyaki balls (which were called something else in Korean but I forget the name). The meat for the chicken katsu was abit dry, but the other two korean dishes were excellent as were the sides that accompanied them. I get the feeling that Korean dishes are probably more up the chef's alley. It's not a very big shop, so during dinner time it can get full very quickly. The time I went was just before the crowd arrived so we were extremely lucky that day to get a seat. There was only one person in the front of house who was taking orders, serving and accepting payments. I get the feeling that this may be a family run operation but right now I'm just full of assumptions. The decor inside is simple but elegant and gives the place that classic oriental feel so you know that you're in either a Korean or Japanese restaurant. I'll be heading back there to scope out more of their dishes. I almost feel reluctant to write this review as I know that once people catch wind of this place, they are going to want to go to it, and once they do they will keep coming back and I may not have anywhere to sit any more because it becomes so popular. Ok, maybe I'm OCD-ing a little bit about the potential of the place, but for me, this is going to be my go to Korean restaurant from now on, and as such I'd be more than happy to keep it my little secret.

Food was the best Japanese I have had outside of Japan and would highly recommend to anyone who has been and knows what to expect. Will come back here for sure, just make sure you expect to wait a little bit longer for the food to come out as it must be made fresh to order which is a good thing :-)
