They use a touch screen pad for the inside tables and a normal menu for the outdoor tables. Staff are friendly and efficient and happy to help you choose items off the menu if you are stuck. To start we got a few specials including the pork belly bao and the deep fried sole fish, then onto some grilled salmon and by this stage our bellies were getting full! So we opted to get 2 small desserts which was the banana split and the green tea cake roll. Overall, good food with lots of flavour. If you visit do try and get a seat inside because its pretty fun to order off the menu.

I tell Melle that the last time I came here that the sushi and sashimi were so tasty and fresh. She nods but it's not until she starts eating the salmon nigiri and sashimi that her eyes light up and says ohhh wow this is really fresh and tasty. Yuri then explains which tuna is which. There are three grades of tuna available on the menu tonight. Melle prefers the medium grade and we all enjoy the usual tuna grade sashimi and nigiri which is typically served in restaurants. The usual tuna grade is a deep purple. Yuri explains that the lighter the tuna, the higher the grade. The highest grade is fatty and delicate. I love it!

We brought our own wine, but wine, beer and sake are available. I was pleased with the generous portion of edamame (as some places only give you about three beans!) and the gyoza was so good we needed to order a second round! The prawn and veggie tempura tasted more deep fried than anything else, but the agedashi was on point. Although this place is a hole in the wall (and if you want dinner, reservations are the way to go), it's got some great eats and I would definitely go back!

With an array of Vietnamese Restaurants on show while driving through the streets of Marrickville,…read moreyou'll be forgiven for not knowing Japanese Restaurant Sakae even existed. From the street Sakae looks like any other shops in the centre of a bustling Illawarra Street with its modest entrance. There's nothing flashy about this place. The menu was extensive with lots of Entree options on offer. My husband had the Tempura Entree. It's a decent size for an entree, it includes 2 pieces of prawn, 1 piece of fish and 6 pieces of veggies fried in tempura batter. I expected tempura batter to be light and this feels heavier than what I'm used to. I had the Yakizana Entree. It's lightly salted half grilled Mackerel. The fish had been de-boned and the skin was crispy. It was a nice dish. Highlight of the night was the Deluxe Sashimi. It contains 22 pieces of sashimi goodness. It was a feast of raw Salmon, Tuna and Kingfish, as well as scallops, oyster, squid and Ikura or Salmon Caviar. Cut with great consistency, everything was fresh and the Ikura was real (unlike some other Sushi/Japanese place that serves fake ones). It was delish! I was a bit disappointed with the Cooked Tuna and Cucumber Hand Roll. The tuna was too mushy and it was so loosely rolled that when picked up most of the fillings fell out. But the mini rolls were neat and beautifully presented. The service was warm and friendly. And overall it was a pleasant experience. Would love to try other entrees the next time we come.

I had the vegetarian bento kinda thinking maybe I should order more, but delicious dish after dish after dish came out and by the end I was STUFFED. The noodles in the udon were absolutely superb (so silky) and you can tell that everything is made super fresh. The eggplant dish (forgot the name) and the okonomiyaki are a must. Two full meals (with no holding back) only ended up costing us $57, which was so decent considering on how much we ordered. One of my new faves. Highly recommend.

We didn't have a booking and all the funky looking tables out the front were taken. No bother, I was so hungarious that it wasn't that important. Seating was irrelevant. I wanted all their foods. We were seated and given these wonderful little things that was a bit like a tangy salad served up in a tiny dish that you usually use to pour your soy sauce into. It tasted so good that I took my partners one too when he wasn't looking then promptly blamed a mouse. I ordered the gyukushi for my entree and wasn't disappointed. The beef was tender and the sauce was just perfect. Not too sweet and not too tangy. My partner ordered the yakitori - which was equally as delicious. I know this because the mouse struck again when I pointed out the interesting art work on the wall to my companion. Mains consisted of teriyaki chicken and the crispy chicken. Crispy chicken was mine and it really was crispy without being overpowering. I don't know how they do this... I might marry the chef. The teriyaki chicken was just as good. Mouse attacked AGAIN! They should do something about those pesky rodents. All in all, even though we were tucked away out the back the wait staff were just as attentive to us as if we were out the front of the house. A definite must do if you love all things Japanese.

First there was much confusion over ordering and my drink took 10mins. Edamame- meh. Salmon sushimi- I've had a lot of sushimi in my time and this was awful. It was cold, like unpleasantly cold. It was pearly like it was a fatty off cut not the veined bright orange one would expect. It was also very roughly chopped- pieces weren't uniform and they were rectangular, chunks and triangles. Chilli tofu- alright. Rice- best part of the night. Sticky but not gluggy. Teriyaki salmon- the horror. 5 pieces (slices about 0.5cm) of rubbery extremely over cooked salmon on a sizzle plate with onion as and only the tiniest trace of teriyaki sauce. Onions were not too bad. But Ergh. It was cheap- all came to less than $40. Except that we'll all need feeding again tonight... Needless to say we will not be returning and cannot see it lasting long.
