The best restaurantsof japanese

07/01/2026: Cosy place, very clean, and the sushi was genuinely fresh and delicious. Had a great experience and would happily return.

03/01/2026: the owner is so rude. doesn’t accept that there is hair in their sushi and they are threatening us to go to police if we complain again. they offered us 100 euro voucher, we didn’t even accept because they are very rude and they are very dirty.

08/01/2026: Ordered take-away. Absolutely disgusting imitation of Japanese food. Fried in stinky overused oil with defrosted ingredients. Even the rice was cooked badly. Avoid like plague.

30/12/2025: Fantastic food, v friendly service. The entire group (all ages) were very happy. Will definitely be going again!!

29/12/2025: Few days before I ordered kerala biriani for an event, instead of biriani they prepared and served us fried rice with chicken and the behaviour of staff was unacceptable...they are rude and has no respect towards their customers...will never ever go back there

29/11/2025: They offer one of the best Indian and Indo-Chiese cuisine for takeaway or catering for group parties 🎉🥳🎈. Had ordered Indian and South-Indian cuisine dishes for 3 of our parties in 2024 and 2025. We were happy, and most importantly all who gathered at our events and parties were very pleased and enjoy their delicious food.

27/12/2025: The place was quite nice and the food was quite good, but unfortunately the quality of the food was mediocre. The maki was a no-go. The salmon was okay, but for the price you pay and for what you get, I wouldn't recommend it. The service was good, I must say (there were few people there today).

20/12/2025: Overall, it's not bad. The sushi fell apart a bit, they didn't cook it right. It was delicious. I couldn't understand everything on the menu. I would have liked to see more pictures. Otherwise, it's a very quiet place to hang out, with a pleasant atmosphere and fresh, quiet music. It's perfect for people who don't like crowds in a small place.

26/09/2025: We loved to go to Dashi and it was our go-to takeaway in COVID times. I ordered for collection on a Thursday evening at 7pm, half of the sushi options were gone and the curry and udon noodle dishes (or at least parts thereof) were heated in a microwave, and it still took them 25 minutes to put the order together. The dishes lacked veggies and where mediocre at best, and I couldn't finish the seaweed salad. Very disappointed.

18/09/2025: Visited the place just for the first time, as I saw they have a lot of great reviews, and variety of options, but unfortunately were disappointed, as many of the ingredients weren’t just included. They show in the menu that the sushi has variety of ingredients, and a lot of interesting stuff like: asparagus, chive, chilli powder, and so, but unfortunately they just used instead of the asparagus the curcumber, and we had no chives or chilli powder, although we should have had😟 Also the trout sushi we had was half raw/and half cooked👀

03/01/2026: Always come here whenever I’m visiting Waterford! Amazing sushi, have eaten from here numerous times and always enjoy the vibes and food!

02/01/2026: Not suitable for vegetarians and don't care about catering for Vegetarians. I asked on the waybin was it OK to cater for us. I say down asked the waitress she said she'd ask the chef. I was told while the lunch special was on, all you can eat starter I couldn't have vegetarian. I was told to come back when the specials were not on. Sonic didn't, my food was covered in fish roe. I sent it back, again it came out covered in fish roe. I asked them to make money fresh as im a paying customer. I was told no. This place was amazing when Jennie, Kali and Katie worked here. None go to kyoto who actually care about vegetarians.

12/10/2025: My favorite takeaway sushi spot, a must stop every time we visit Cork, right in the heart of the English Market. So many choices of sushi to choose. I also really loved their poke bowl. Very affordable. Highly recommended.

11/10/2025: Best sushi ever tasted, tuna roll was out of this world. Great selection, even had vegan rolls also.

27/12/2025: Delicious authentic Japanese food. Great bentos on special.

15/12/2025: The kitchen is in a state of disrepair. The chicken here is cooked in a dirty, black oil. If you know about real Japanese's food, you won't be back here again.

11/01/2026: We came to the restaurant and asked to be seated, but were rudely refused and told to move, despite the restaurant being almost empty and the tables not being reserved. When we asked whether a particular beer was light or dark, as we had never tried it before, the waitress replied rudely: “I have no idea what kind of beer it is. It’s just beer in a bottle, OKAY?” Such behavior is unacceptable in a hospitality setting. The food, especially the sushi, was genuinely tasty and I would recommend this place for the food, but the service was disappointing and needs serious improvement.

13/12/2025: my fave food spot in clonmel, their ramen is amazing :-) Portions are huge and the chicken is halal too !!

28/12/2025: Nice place, good location, lovely ambience. The food was good but elements missing. There should have been miso soup alongside two meals, which never arrived. My dessert was ice-cream with tuiles cases and berries. There were 2 blueberries! That's a disappointment. Don't bother saying berries, if you are going to serve two! Don't say you serve miso soup alongside, if you're not going to do that.

22/12/2025: Very poor experience received by management not on the ground staff. We had booked for 16 people food and karaoke - they charged us a €320 deposit for this booking, €20 euro per person which we thought was originally a bit steep! This was also not redeemable against payments on the day. We had group of 13 sit down for food, we had 3 friends that were unable to attend on the day due to illness - typical of the time of year close to Christmas with flus etc. In total between food (€870) , karaoke, where we also had additional friends join (€420) and drinks probably €500+ we spent close to the €2000 mark. Food and service were fine but nothing special, expensive as Dublin generally is but there are much better Japanese restaurants in Dublin. They are now refusing to return €60 of the deposit based on the fact that we had 3 friends not sit down for dinner with us, despite the fact we spent nearly €2000 in Maneki on the night. They are saying this is because we didn't have an accurate number of people for the booking 5 days prior to the date of the dinner - anyone that has an illness surely knows that you can't predict it five days beforehand and you are doing the right thing by not attending and spreading it to everyone else, despite this still 13 of us attended and there wasn't any money lost for Maneki. They have stopped replying to our emails and it has left an incredibly bad impression on our larger friend group who are all based in Dublin, none of us will return to Maneki again and will not recommend it to anyone in our wider circles based on the experience. Table was also delayed by 20 mins when we arrived and the karaoke room was also delayed by 20-30 mins. Mics were also way to high in the karaoke room which wasn't very enjoyable but the issue could not be resolved by the staff. To me, it seems that they take the deposit to make sure that you do not get some of it back, they made us even sign a waiver for the karaoke in case of any issues, seems like an incredibly greedy business model! Any of the Chinese restaurants on Parnell St are a much better recommendation for karaoke in Dublin :)

01/10/2025: Incredible spicebag for only €4.90 and it came with a free curry sauce too.

09/09/2025: First time to get a take away here. Portion was smallish and the beef green pepper didn't taste like it normally should. Disappointing

26/01/2026: Won't be eating here again after I saw how they treat their staff.

25/01/2026: Amazing place, great service amazing food incredible quality of food
