One of the few places in Wellington for Ramen. This place is alright and the food isn't too bad. Ramen noodles were a little soft for me but the soft boiled egg is perfect. The tempura was also good. Overall, it did taste great but the only downside is their portion. I do think it could be a little bigger for its price otherwise I'm pretty content with everything else.
The interior decor is themed nicely. The lanterns, stools and wall detailing fits well with the cuisine.

Really efficient and polite service. The soft shell crab, karaage chicken and the crumbed cheese were our favourites. The gyozas we got with garlic sauce are always an easy choice and finishing off with the mochi makes it all worth it. Definitely coming back for more.
Visited Kazu yesterday (second time) for a friend's birthday - a total of 12 of us. Everyone's orders looked good and from what they said, tasted good too! I ordered the Premium Wagyu beef and avocado on rice ($14).
Smaller portion than most other items on the menu, but tasted great! I added some chilli oil to spice it up and enjoyed every bit.
A relaxing ambience with helpful and friendly staff 👍🏼😊
Had teriyaki chicken on rice today which was 1 of 2 $10 Friday lunch specials on offer - I added the sesame seeds. It was a good portion, was super tasty. Would have liked a bit more mayo but that comes down to preference. Will be back to try some sake & yakitori.
Ramen broth was quite nice. The Pork Belly, Steak, Prawn with garlic Mayo Yakitori sticks were pretty good too. Great place for a snack with friends. Can be quite pricey though as they all accumulate. Service was excellent, maître d made a real effort to welcome us and attend to us despite her limited English.
Came here for lunch, nice and quiet. A few people inside, and outside enjoying the sun. Food arrived pretty quick. We ordered the chicken chilli udon, katsu chicken curry, pork dumplings and two mini donburis. All delicious and reasonable portions.
Come here pretty often with friends and each time we always enjoy it! Such an amazing Restuarant and such good prices. Highly recommend this restaurant because it’s very underrated. Love it so much! And also such amazing service and love the friendly staff!!
Good vibe, good food but price was a bit higher than I have expected. The deco is basic and could be improved to provide a warm feeling. Dishes were not very big so need to order a few to share.

I love this place, because it has the quirky vibe and they have student deal which is awesome!
Yakitori is nice but pricey and tiny portion.
They have different menu for lunch and dinner, where dinner they have less choice on ramen and mostly everything.
Definitely would recommend their black ramen which full of garlic if you are into garlic and they do 2 size: half and normal size. I will say it is more worth the money to order the normal size, since the half size doesn't look like a "half" size of the normal size.
Also, if you are coming with a group, it'll be a bit tricky since they don't do separate payment, which can be a hassle.
So much love for the service and the food. Wonderful izakaya dishes. Had okonomiyaki, takoyaki, sushi, rice balls... And more. All of it excellent and promptly served. Delicious drinks. Everything was great! Will be back, of course.
Very good food. Lots of choices and real japanese theme feels. Good place for yakitori and some beers. Would 100% recommend
The food is excellent, traditional Japanese food and the staff are always welcoming as soon as you enter.
I came here for a late dinner and to be honest, it was awesome. We shared several different things at our table so I got to try a wide variety of food, and each dish was amazing! Possibly the tastiest thing was the prawns wrapped in bacon. Really enjoyed this experience and would recommend it to anyone who asked. Also got to sit out on the balcony in the twilight, which was really nice.
So glad we found this place! Everything we ordered was so delicious, and I have eaten a lot of yakitori in Auckland and overseas.
The Yakitori was sooo good and probably the yummiest grilled sweetcorn I have ever had in my life! 🌽
We ordered 7-8 small dishes including a half sized tonkotsu garlic ramen and left so full and so happy, will definitely return anytime we're back in Wellington.
Nice range of drinks, including sake and wine and beer, chu-hi and cocktails. The staff were really cute and nice, very good service. Highly recommended.
Perfect little spot, even eating solo as I just did this Saturday night. Atmosphere is mean, food is mean, they put a lot of care into what they do. Highly recommended
The food was amazing. We kept ordering one after the other. Authentic Japanese vibes. Must visit with a group of friends.
Have been here twice and am looking forward to more. Great vibe with a warm welcoming and welcoming felling. Bang drumbs when you arrive or leave. Staff are friendly and work hard to make the experience even better. Small place but full of life. I recommend plum wine on the rocks. Nice and sweet for thoughs who like sweet achahol.
Had fun here! Walked in with a friend and shared a couple of dishes. Love their sochu cocktails for under $10. Keen to come again for a full meal!
Authentic Japanese food that was delicious, with great service. Felt very much like being in an Izakaya. Highly recommend if you are in Wellington and love Japanese food.
Great atmosphere and food, would 100% recommend if you're craving some japanese food!
