Sushi-Ya - Chatswood

This place was so good that it was my way to the Japanese restaurant in chatswood. during the service during my last was in order, eating was quite disappointing. the sashimi was not fresh and extremely thin. the quality of the unagi was not so great either.

It's a past since I've been here, a bit further down the road from the main Chatswood stripe, so really not so comfortable when they actually live close. surprising that the last reviews are a bit average, my previous experiences were positiw. I stopped for lunch on Sunday, it was pretty crowded with just a few other tables. the sashimi lunch set was not bad for under $20. the quality of the sashimi was good. will return when close.

I'm looking for more fantastic Japanese restaurants and decided to drive to chatswood to Sushi-Ya. matte and I tend to eat the dinner quite early, so it was quite easy to get a table, but sushi ya is pretty busy when it is almost 6:30 o'clock. Sushi-Ya is located directly on the main strip of chatswood chase. when entering I notice the cozy interieur and some reserved tables. there is a rather extensive menu, but I desire the familiar aromen from my favorite Japanese restaurants in west ryde. So I order what I usually order from tatsuya or moeru to compare.

We used to come here quite often when they opened more than a decade ago. They used to be better is all i can say. Heaps better. In all areas. Tempura udon 2.5/5, we dont mind if the broth came out of a bottle. But the quality of the tempuras were below par esp the prawns. Seriously ditch the old prawns. Unagi set 2.5/5, mushy eel does not a good unagi set make. Black cod 1/5, i cant be bothered to describe the atrociousness of this. Karaage set 2.75/5, the saviour of the night which is to damn with faint praise. The quality of the rice left a lot to be desired.

A small place with polite staff. Eel rice is yummy at $22 with no sides apart from a bag of instant miss soup. Only ordered takeaway at this brand cannot comment sushi or other food. sushi at the other branch is freshly made at order last time but didn't impress me much in taste. one thing worth to mention is toilet is very clean.
