Fodor's Review:
Touted as the city's best Japanese restaurant, Hanabishi sits in slightly seedy King Street, an area known for its bars, club venues, and occasionally unsavory clientele. Featuring wooden floors, blue walls, and traditional ceramic serving trays, Hanabishi is the playground of Osakan chef Akio Soga, whose menu includes such gems as hagi kimo (salty steamed fish liver served with miso). The long list of hot and chilled sake, as well as the expansive wine list, ranges from reasonable to pricey. The former inexpensive bento boxes now contain the sought after wagu beef, but at A$28 each they are still considered a bargain and attract a lunchtime crowd.
- Keep in mind: Reservations essential.
