Jugemu & Shimbashi - Neutral Bay

The soba here is handmade inhouse everyday, make sure you try them! <br/ I loved my cold oroshi soba, noodle is very aldente, fragrant with buckwheat and the grated daikon is fresh. <br/ The chicken mushroom soup soba is warming and perfect for winter. The seafood okonomiyaki is filling, generous with toppings and delicious.<br/ <br/ Everything is amazing, we will be back!

Loved the experience! Luckily, we came as a party of two and managed to get a spot at the bar since we didn’t have a booking. It was awesome watching them make the food right in front of you. Prices are quite steep though.

There are many reasons to love this place the gyoza is exceptional, the scallops are delightful, the soba noodles are delicious..... but the best thing they do here is the miso. Made from scratch, delicately smokey and absolutely delightful I cannot have miso from any other place now, they have spoiled me!

Super authentic restaurant that offers freshly made soba and warm service. The soba is very fragrant and well balanced with a soup that has strong bonito flavours, and the duck was cooked perfectly. We also ordered sushi, egg rolls, tempura, walnut soba that had a sweet and rich soup, as well as the special okonomiyaki. Egg rolls were excellent, okonomiyaki had quite a lot of leek and was a bit salty, so I’d recommend adding mochi or noodles. Sushi and tempura were fresh but slightly overpriced for just a small amount, but still worth trying. The biggest letdown was that they don’t offer a dessert menu- even something simple like matcha ice cream or fruit would’ve made a great difference to the dining experience, please consider.

What a very authentic japanese restaurant in North Sydney! The place, the ambience, the food, everything was very japanese! And FYI they make the soba from scratch!!! Not many japan restaurant make that from scratch, because it takes a very long time very hard to do it. That’s why it makes this restaurant special. We ordered the famous okonomiyaki, prawn pork gyoza, fried soba, cold soba with walnut soup, and cold soba with tempura. They were all tasted fantastic! The price were also reasonable. Definitely will come back.
