Shige Restaurant - East Perth

Always a great quality of fresh seafood when we come here. Highly reccomended !!

He 's back!!!!!! After a bit of a hiatus where he went back to Japan, Shige is back and the cuisine is as good as ever. You know it 's going to be good when Tetsuya wants traditional Japanese food he heads over to have a bit of Shige-San 's culinary magic. He 's one of the best sashimi chefs around, up there with the guys from Sushi E in Sydney. Shige goes to the trouble of always getting the whole fish so that he can prepare it properly. I know a lot a 'Japanese ' restaurants, especially those run by non-Japanese, which buy their sashimi pre-filleted...it 's not the same. So when you come, not 'if ', in my opinion, make sure you order some sashimi or sushi so that you create a benchmark for all your Japanese culinary moments in the future. Other great dishes: chawan mushi (savoury egg custard), made properly...none of that instant stuff, the soft shell crab is a must, as is the agedashi-dofu. Plus, his tempura is the way it should be, light, thin, crispy batter. The new decor is pleasant and now that he 's moved from South Perth to just opposite the Hyatt Hotel, it 's convenient for lunch, plus there 's heaps of parking. Honestly, I can 't recommend it any higher.

This place serves the freshest sashimi! I would say this is one of the most authentic Japanese restaurants in Perth. You feel like you step in to little Tokyo once you are inside the restaurants. The owners are friendly and welcoming. The grilled squid and matcha cheesecake are one of my favorites! Oh and don't forget the sake ;

Lovely lady at the counter gave suggestions and what to pick as I was clueless bad their daily specials in seafood with rice. was excellent and good meal on my first night in Perth after a long day with some sparkling wine in my hotel room as I took a take away

We always enjoy the fresh seafood available in this restaurant !<br/ We like the fact that the owner which is also the main chef is in front and preparing the sushi and sashimi in front of !<br/ Nice family run restaurant!<br/
