Hands down one of the best dining experiences I’ve never had. The waitress was so lovely. She went over the menu and our options for dining. They also gave my boyfriend a free birthday cocktail and all of the cocktails were delicious and the food was even better. 10/10

My husband and I have dined at Tsuru three times in the last couple of months. This is why we love it: the food is outstanding; the service is friendly, prompt and helpful; the music is pleasant and not too loud; it's in a pleasant part of the city. We also particularly enjoyed the advice we received one evening on which sake to order - and it was wonderful!

A really enjoyable dinner at Shou Sumiyaki. The staff made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and were happy to explain the menu and offer guidance. Our food arrived promptly and was delicious, especially the wagyu from the charcoal grill. We never felt rushed, which made the evening even better. Thank you to the team for looking after us.

Honestly can’t tell you which was my favourite dish because every single course smashed it out of the park. This was the most memorable dining experience I’ve had in a Melbourne restaurant and am looking forward to many more visits in the future.

    We had a wonderful dinner at Shou Sumiyaki. The wagyu was beautifully marbled, tender and full of flavour, and grilling it over the charcoal at our table made the meal feel special. Everything arrived well presented, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. They explained the menu clearly and checked in at the right times without interrupting our meal. The restaurant had a warm, comfortable atmosphere that made it easy to relax and enjoy the evening. It’s a great place to go with friends or for a special dinner. We left very happy and would definitely return for the wagyu and the overall experience.
