Tokyo Club

The sashimi was somewhat fresh and delicious , but the blue water bento wasn't worth it. The customer service was unresponsive, slow , and inefficient . The staff continued to stroll past us after noticing empty dishes until we asked. Wouldn't recommend.

Succulent sushi, gorgeous gyōza, fresh fantastic Japanese cuisine There seems to always be a queue and it's no wonder - the katsu crumb was crunchy, the slices of sashimi melted in the mouth and the miso was the best I've had in years. The pitchers of beer are pleasingly massive and the warm sake goes down a treat. It's a great date night spot - tucked away down a vibrant foodie alleyway under bent bamboo it feels like a sexy secret. Highly recommended the seafood 'Blue water' bento. We shared one bento and one gyōza between two and we could barely finish it!

Food was not bad but way too expensive for the tiny serving. Cocktails were very below average. We ordered - Candy Apple - Melon Boy - Ginza Hostess DO NOT ORDER THE COCKTAIL WITH PASSION FRUIT, COCONUT WATER AND GUAVA JUICE. IT IS HORRIBLE

We ended up coming here as the restaurant we wanted to go to was randomly closed. Honestly my expectations weren’t too high at first but I ended up really enjoying it! The sashimi was really good, and the bento boxes also gave a lot of variety of things to try. The staff were really kind and service was good even though it was fairly busy. My only complaint would be that the tables are quite small and it was really tricky to fit everything we ordered onto one table but luckily the table next to us ended up freeing up so we could use it also.

Ordered the ginger pork and teriyaki chicken with steamed rice and miso soup , was really really good. For its price it was well worth it. Staff were really friendly and accommodating and food came out really quickly. The outdoor dining is nice too - would definitely recommend for a nice sit down dinner that isn’t too formal but still has high quality food.

Lovely spot with some open seats at the kitchen side and a cosy space with more tables tucked away for more privacy. Friendly welcome and immediately given eater and the menus. Quick service and delicious food!! Bento boxes are delectable, although maybe a little pricey, but the flavoirs don't disappoint!

Definitely worth a visit! The bento boxes are a great way to try lots of things and are the perfect amount to fill you up! The kumara was a little bland unfortunately. Lovely service.

Great little hangout place with good food and service. I loved the bento box and eggplantRecommended dishesTeriyaki Chicken, Vegan Bento Box

Best Japanese Izakaya restaurant in Auckland that I have seen. Beautiful cosy little setup in the heart of Ponsonby Central. The dinner available from 4.30pm bento boxes are amazing!

WOW... Many years ago proper restaurants used to have a Maitre'D Maître d' is short for maître d'hôtel, which comes from French and literally means "master of the house. They would make you feel like your at your aunts house for a special occasion and charm you with their soft voice. Well this place definitely sticks to tradition and the Maitre'D is Sarasa. The Japanese owner only been in NZ for 22 years hosts all guests and making them all feel like VIP guests. Seriouslly impeccable service with genuine and traditional Japanese fare reminiscent of Tokyo Izakayas I lived in Tokyo for 3.5 years and this place is as close as it gets for food, ambience and service. Quickest way to feel you are in Tokyo is grab a counter seat and chit chat with Sarasa and the Japanese staff. Order a bento box actually very cheap at $32 and wash down with Asahi beers. Campai!!! Will be back Sarasa San : Arigato Gozaimasu
