  • Japanese sushi meets dim sum. Food delivered on a sushi train was good. Tried a variety and while it was not the tastiest food I have had it was decent and price appropriate. Didn't order anything off the menu so can't comment on that.

    Here is what I tasted:
    Prawn & Chive Dumplings - not as tasty as the ones I had earlier in the day.
    BBQ Pork Buns - bit too sweet for my liking but full of flavour and good size.
    Tuna Sushi - basic.
    Crumbed Prawn Nigiri - Simple and tasty
    Crab Claw Balls - full of crab, served with mayo. Nice and juicy.
    Custard Tarts - not too sweet, pastry good.
    Pork Dumplings - sauce was tasty, meat fairy tasty.

    Overall the food was fairly good but nothing outstanding.

  • Went for lunch (Tuesday) and it was almost full but we were greeted and seated right away. Waitresses cleared our table (apart from plates) regularly which was nice.

  • There are better places to eat asian food in perth cbd but as it is cheap and quick people should give it a try and make up their own mind. I am very fussy with japanese food (having dated a chef) so my standards are quite high.

  • Pretty average Japanese fare for the cbd but its fresh which is why I keep going back. I enjoy sushi trains and this place serves a combination of your traditional sushi/sashimi items as well as dim sum. (if you head here for dim sum, let me say you'd be silly not to walk a further 5min and get the proper stuff in northbridge) - much of the dim sum here is soggy and doesnt work well for me. They offer squid tentacles (by pre-order usually), which lacks salt and pepper and garlic. I usually go for the salmon teriyaki donburi, however their teriyaki sauce is very over powering, and I usually get them to only add half as much . Their tuna and raw salmon sushi are the other items I usually order and have been pretty content with the quality.

  • Very poor especially when busy - most waitresses speak English as a second language - and this can be a bit frustrating at times, but its a fast food place, so I can't really complain

  • Very uncomfortable seating, facing a sushi/dim sum conveyor belt. Good it you;re on your own and terrible if you are with a friend as you get a stiff neck turning to talk. I did not enjoy my seating experience and there were only a few alternative table seating, but they were taken.

  • Having heard that they did dim sum as well as sushi, curiosity got the better of me and I had a peek inside.

    It felt very strange to have Chinese dim sum cooked Japanese style. From the salmon roe on top of the sui mai (instead of the usual orange dot), to the different spices used to flavour the meat, it was an interesting experience. I also found it was loaded with salt and msg, which may not go down well with some people.

    The variety of dishes is not great. There are the favourites, such as char siew bau, sui mai and squid tentacles, but there are also others which I haven't seen before.

    I would say that this is definitely not authentic Chinese dim sum. That being said, it is still quite tasty and worth a try, the concept is innovative in combining the sushi train with dim sum. It is, however, quite pricey and the servings are smaller than you would expect at a normal tea house.
