Food at Yuzu

Yuzu cooks Japanese izakaya-style food: sushi rolls, sashimi, and plates made for sharing. Diners single out the sashimi for freshness and presentation, and the sushi and sashimi combo arrives as a long platter of nigiri and slices. Hot plates include seafood gyoza, which one visitor found crisp and not greasy, and chicken karaage donburi. A braised beef dish with carrot and green chilli shows the warmer side of the menu. The restaurant is fully halal certified.

The original Yuzu

Yuzu began in Pyrmont in 2009, when founder chef Sam Hwang opened a small, unpretentious venue. The group now runs five Sydney restaurants, and this site is still called the original. Its local menu is izakaya and social plates, alongside a core menu shared across the venues that includes assorted sashimi and soft shell crab roll.
