Lovely fresh ingredients. The miso salmon hotpot was especially delicious. Service was fast despite it being busy.
I ordered once from Hokkaido during lockdown and was not disappointed and thus was the first restaurant that I went back to after level 3 ended and I returned again just two weeks ago. A testimony to the general consistency and quality of the food here.
Liked:
1. Good variety on their menu with lots of photos to tempt you and help you make a choice and a decent drinks menu
2. Nice ambience, I liked the booths that they have and the fact that you can take a peek into the central kitchen just behind the till.
3. Authentic taste. We liked their sashimi which was generally very fresh, their tempura and their skewers. I’m a sukiyaki fan so I could not help but order one to share.
4. Parking seems tight out front of the restaurant but just turn around the back where space is ample and free.
Definitely one of my fav go tos in my hood.
The food and ambiance is very authentic. :) The food is tasty and we were very lucky to get a table with a booth without a booking. (Try turning up at 6pm) Admittedly we were a small group of four. Prime beef, salmon miso pot, chicken katsu, sashimi (15 pieces) and the grilled eggplant was the right amount of food for 4 adults.
Green tea ice cream is so good 👌
I would say the best Japanese restaurant in this part if the city by far. A broad authentic menu. Friendly staff. I always have Grilled Oysters, Saba, and Sashimi
We went there with family friends ( 10pp) over Queen’s birthday and were completely blown away by the standard and variety of food. I should have taken more photos but once the orders started to arrive to the table, we were too busy eating and chatting.
We had the sashimi and sushi platter to start with which was fresh and beautifully arranged. The tempura was light and fluffy. The sukiyaki pot set was just perfect for the chilling night. We also had the fried rice and prime beef which took me back to my childhood memories.
We haven’t had such quality and variety Japanese food for ages. Will definitely be back soon to taste the rest of the menu!
Kid-friendly restaurant. Good customer service and value for money. Their food and service never disappoint. This is one of our family's fave restos.
Lovely and friendly authentic Mt Wellington Japanese restaurant. We had a few dishes hat we’re all great, even the kids enjoyed their time and meal.

Had a pleasant experience here. We had the pork katsu, salmon yam yam grill and the eggplant, all of which were very good. The waitress was also very nice.
This place is sooooo good, such a hidden gem since it’s not in a central location. Their dishes are all excellent and very friendly staff. Highly recommend their katsu chicken (the best we’ve had in Auckland, no kidding), grilled dishes (especially mushroom), grilled whole squid and takoyaki balls. We’ve been back so many times and it’s so good every time. They also have BYO option which is a bonus!
We ordered the beef fillet, Isame and Tempura Vegetables
The food was perfect possibly a little salty, definitely need to order rice with your meal depending on your dishes.
Thanks Hokkaido !
Authentic Japanese kitchen. Very good quality/price ratio
One of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Auckland. Reasonable price and tasty food.
While most of the dishes are very delicious, I wouldn’t recommend their karaage fried chicken. It was just not Japanese style at all.
We wanted to try an authentic style Japanese restaurant and we found it here. We order 6 plates of the menu including sushi, sashimi, squid, chicken, fried rice and seafood noodles.
Very tasty, fresh and well presented. Recommend to anyone. Sorry no photos this time.
Our favourite Japanese restaurant in Auckland! The quality and taste is guaranteed. Prime beef is so succulent and the fried rice is full of flavour! The soft shell crab is to die for. Wonderful dining experience every time.
Nice atmosphere, great staff. We changed an order some minutes after ordering and they were happy to change it for us.
Different menu for lunch and dinner(for example katsu curry not available at night) but still plenty of options to choose from.
Fast service and good food.
All of the stuff we ordered (and we have ordered and tried most of the items on the menu across different visits) are on point! Never had one that I didnt like or love! Will continue visiting Hokkaido. Pleasant atmosphere and great service!
Good food, but a bit pricey. They really should clean the bathroom vent. Pretty gross.
the overall experience is fine, except the sashimi boat. all of us are waiting for the boat coming, and we confirmed with staff that the sashimi should come in a boat when we see the plate. that's abit sad. but still, all food here is amazing. sashimi are fresh, salmon miso pot is tasty, and bento r not bad, katsu curry rice is good. portion is slightly bigger than usual japanese restaurant.
Our family have been to Hokkaido many times. Their food is always good and the staff are accommodating. Nice views out over Stonefields & good parking right outside.
Still going and it's still good!
