In the days before smartphones, one needed to visit a restaurant to find out if they were any good at all. One would then have a proper conversation over the (hopefully) enjoyable meal and company. We neednt any devices to know about kyushu as it was 1 of our go-to more than a decade ago along with koh-ya (moved to randwick) n kintaro (now closed). It was pretty much like meeting a good friend whom you havent met in ages and found that you simply picked up where you left off and it gave you a warm fuzzy feeling inside. <br/ <br/ They dont do anything spectacular except serving simple trad jap food w good qual ingredients and not taking shortcuts in prep. Comforting to see menu has not change...
Kyushu is definitely one of the best Japanese restaurants around Sydney, with reasonable price and portions. It's always a nice place for special occasions like birthdays/anniversaries. We ordered their SALMON LOVER (ENTREE), TEMPURA, FRIED OYSTERS, NEBAYAKI UDON, EEL HANDROLL, SALMON HANDROLL, TABOKKI NIGIRI and GREEN TEA ICECREAM. Everything was delicious and the sashimi/sushi were very fresh. Love their fried oysters in particular! Staffs were very friendly and helpful as well despite having a full house. Definitely recommend if you're looking for an authentic Jap restaurant!<br/ <br/ Please feel free to follow my instagram: @pignic_ for more foodie snaps!
Creative, tasty and thinking out of the box japanese food...thats what i saw in this resturant!<br/ <br/ For entree we had the pork maki which is thinly sliced pork roll with shallot in the middle and fried with a dippy sauce and the grilled eggplant which was beautifully cooked.<br/ <br/ For mains we had the waffu steak with dipping sauce which was cooked to perfection and the hot pot which was good but similar to korean hotpot so think i will try something else next time.<br/ <br/ Overall great tasting food and look forward to next time.<br/ <br/ For 2 entrees, 1 beer, warm saki to share and 2 mains was just over $100 so reasonable price i think.
I have been regularly going to Kyushu for lunch and dinner for more than a decade now. Their lunch time special bentos are value for money and consists of a varied selection of mains and quality accompaniments. The sashimi is prepared fresh by a dedicated sushi chef in the kitchen. <br/ <br/ Even though its on the salty side, I think the Chicken Teriyaki is the best in Sydney. If only they had a shop in the CBD so I can get my bento fix!

This place has been an all time favorite. The quality and the taste of the food stays consistent throughout the years. Ive been going to this place a lot for nearly 10 years now. Love their special teriyaki sauce, its house-made and you cant get it anywhere else. This place is always packed during lunch time. Best to book before coming.
Delicious food, we had the teriyaki chicken and it was absolutely phenomenal! Perfectly cooked chicken with crispy skin and a beautifully crisp side salad. Great sized portions! Had a very laid casual back ambience however only problem was I asked for water numerous times and no one brought me water. 10 10 would recommend
Basic menu executed well.Little on the pricier side for Japanese food but is always fresh and not as salty and mayo drenched as other Japanese restaurants.Recommend pork maki and teriyaki beef.Restaurant is very loud though so do not recommend if you intend on a quiet conversation
This is my go-to place whenever I crave Japanese lunch boxes (and that's very often! . Its about 10 mins from me so I am always here to the point the staff remembers my order by heart. The food is great and the price is very reasonable. I would definitely recommend this place!!!

My family and I have been coming here for the last 15yrs several times a month. Honestly the best teriyaki chicken in Sydney. Would also recommend the agaedashi tofu for starters and the pork maki and wafu steak.
Great neighbourhood gem! Food is always fresh and perfect for a family gathering. Sashimi is fantastic and try the pork maki!! Service is always excellent.
