The grilled fish has a tender texture that creates a delightful melting effect when eaten, providing a rich and flavorful experience.. Authentic Japanese cuisine is a must-try. Tonkatsu is fine but nothing special. Portion is huge.

This is one of the best jap restaurant in Europe!!! Itโs very small so you have the option to take-away and have your meal at the pub just crossing the street where the owner is very friendly too! Mandatory to taste it !!

Extraordinarily good Japanese food in a simple setting. Nanban Chicken (Tori Tatsuta Don) is my all-time favourite, a genuine culinary experience. You can cross the street and eat your food at O Sho, just order a drink. The perfect accompaniment to Japanese food is a glass of Beamish. Enjoy!

The food was mostly great! We got the chicken gyoza, fish donburi (daily special), and hot beef soba noodles. The soba noodles were really disappointing compared to everything else. The donburi was amazing!!

Easily the best Japanese I've had in Ireland. Fantastic katsu don. Proper ratios of authentic, delicate flavors using tasty ingredients that taste the part as much as they look it (unlike so many other shops with notions). Grab your food and go around the corner to eat at the free Elizabeth Fort's picnic tables, instead. I suppose if I'd ding anything it would be the very un-Japanese demeanor of kitchen staff, but what can you do, this isn't Japan lol. Also, wish there was a more environmentally friendly option for this kind of takeaway.

GET THIS AS TAKE AWAY AND GO EAT IT INTO O'SHO. The food is absolutely amazing, best I've had. The interior consists of a few bar chairs, so I reccomend bringing it across the street to O'sho, grabing a beer and you will be much happier.

In Ireland, this restaurant and its sister restaurant, Ichigo Ichie, are the only places where you can eat proper Japanese food. Whatever you eat, it never disappoints. There's a line before the restaurant opens every weekend, but it's worth the wait.
I've been to this restaurant many times since it opened, and it's amazing how the quality hasn't changed even after the owner chef moved to the sister restaurant. This time I ordered shrimp bukkake soba to go. It was delicious as always.
Best Japanese food in Cork for sure ๐
