kanzo

best value japanese joint i've come across. thisplaceis always packed during the working week, but managed to get the chance to sit and enjoy this weekend.

all meals, including the sushi is freshly prepared and are complemented with miso soup. i ordered the teriyaki chicken donburi (brown rice) along with a prawn roll grilled salmon nigiri, both were easily of resturant quality, a league above any sushi takeaway shop, and only costed $20 for the total meal pictured!

not good. not worth the 3.9 rating is currently has.
sushi was not fresh, rather overpriced, rather dirty environment. will not come back not recommend thisplaceto anyone.....

fresh sushi rolls and they are made to order. great price. small cute and cozyplaceto have afternoon snacks.

this is probably the best sushiplacei’ve been to. all their ingredients are so fresh and extremely tasty! can’t go wrong with a magma or grilled sushi roll- best thing on their menu. their teriyaki chicken is also amazing! once you eat here, it’ll be hard to eat at another sushi joint.

a pretty small japanese restaurant operated by korean. the food was not too bad with high money value. love their tempura prawn.
will visit theplaceagain or takeaway in the future~

such a pleasant dining experience with my family and partner. the food was devine for a smallplaceoff the beaten track. my salmon was tender and the sushi was served so nicely.

thisplaceis great for fresh sushi and japanese food at a reasonable price. i ordered the teriyaki chicken salad bowl which was very tasty and fresh. others ordered chicken katsu curry which was also very tasty and a generous serving. the sushi rolls were also delicious.

theplaceis very small and there is limited seating, so it can be a little difficult getting a spot. the service was also not that great and could be improved. however i would recommend for tasty and affordable japanese food

kanzo is the best japanese restaurant in parramatta. their teriyaki chicken and grilled salmon rolle is really delicious. the salad range is a must try. the katsudons are juicy and not dry.placealways packed.

small cute sushiplacethat always but always has the freshest and nicest sushi. prices are incredibly affordable for all on the menu, kanzo never disappoints :)

rather busy during lunch hours, although getting a table or even just getting takeaway doesn’t require that much of a wait. i’ve been here twice now and it’s not the best japanese cuisineplacein parramatta but it does it well enough. thisplaceis not friendly for gluten free and dairy free folks, since there’s no gluten free sauce or any kind of notation on their menu. that being said though, fresh sashimi and nigiri tend to be safe options.

ordered sashimi bento, sushi and sashimi bento, and a medium nigiri sushi platter. was kinda keen on the lotus root chips but then i saw the price and was like nah.

anyway, sashimi bento came with rice, salad (drizzled with sauce - so i didn’t touch it bc i don’t know if it’s gluten free or not), miso soup, and a few slices of salmon drizzled in more sauce (did not touch this because i rly hate it when salmon is drowned in any kind of sauce!) and a few slices of tuna and salmon sashimi. the tuna sashimi is definitely not as good as the salmon sashimi. there were more inedible fatty pieces in the tuna that the chef hadn’t cut out and i had to spit it out while i was eating because grosssss... it is fresh seafood but i really wish they took more care in slicing their raw food, because that’s what makes sashimi different to just throwing on blobs of seafood. would have preferred thinner slices :) the salmon sashimi was cut thinner than the tuna ones and it was hard to fault! melt in your mouth salmon sashimi is always to die for so kudos for that. the one lotus root chip was ok, kinda oily and already cold. wouldn’t really make me want to order more.

sushi and sashimi bento: similar to the sashimi bento but $1 more expensive. it came with a few pieces of tuna and salmon nigiri. i think i did like this more than the sashimi one because they didn’t drown anything in sauce. the thin nigiri slices are great. rice is eh — not something that i usually eat unless i’m super hungry. it’s well seasoned and well made, maybe a little on the sticky side but still dry like leftover rice.

medium nigiri sushi platter probably doesn’t seem worth it at all considering the baby rolls were half salmon and half cooked tuna. the cooked tuna was rly bland and the salmon you could barely taste. ebi/prawn nigiri was also good but i really would’ve preferred less baby rolls.

overall, because of how busy thisplacegets, customer service is to the point and friendly enough (they seem like they’re trying their best). ambience-wise it seems like your regular takeaway shop, with only a few tables to sit at, but i really do think their seafood is a lot more fresh than the usual japanese takeaway stores and is on par with fancier japanese restaurants and sushi trains. their prices are fair for what they offer although improvements could be made for some of the dishes.

a small corner japanese restaurant tucked away from eat street of parramatta. thisplacecame highly recommended to me by some mates who have eaten here before, raving the sushi to be quite good. unfortunately i didn’t order the sushi when i came so i can’t rate it on that. came here with a friend and ordered the chicken katsu curry, while my friend got the teriyaki ramen and takoyaki balls. the curry was pretty good and the ramen was pretty average. sadly, the takoyaki balls were mushy and a bit disappointing. overall, pretty standard food and very decent prices.

so quaint and comfortable, kanzo is the perfectplaceto hide away in as you devour some seriously delicious food.

portion sizes are amazing and everything tastes so fresh. highly recommend the rainbow roll!

amazing staff . really cool venue , with fresh sushi and nigiri.
i have been to tokyo and eaten the best sushi money can buy and i really think thisplacenails it for the money you pay you get good quality and friendly service.

ordered the grilled salmon roll, a large sashimi platter and orange juice which was around $45 in total, which is a good price for sashimi and a large roll.

the grilled salmon is pretty dam good. i didn’t think the sashimi platter was that fresh but the texture and flavour was still good.

it’s just across the road from the lobby of meriton george street so it’s a greatplaceto go if you’re staying the night.

one of the best japanese restaurant in sydney. everything on the menu is delicious, the price is very reasonable. service is efficient, would definitely recommend thisplaceto everyone .
