KOSATEN LAUNCESTON REVIEWS

OMG! What a brilliant Japenese restaurant. It has a train deliver your food when you order it, It's a nice change to having all food being delivered at once. Such a large variety of entrees, meals, and drinks to choose from. Complimentary to the chef(s). The food is cooked to perfection and the presentation brilliant

I really love this restaurant. Food comes fast. Love the rolls, the fried prawns which reminds me of Brazil. Staff is friendly. Everything looks so clean. There are lots of options, all kinds of meat. Great place to go with friends, super dynamic and neat. Should out to the lamb

Lovely meal with beautiful food and entertaining ‘train delivery’ service. Pork belly nigiri was melt in mouth deliciousness. Very good value for top quality food and presentation. Thank you for a lovely experience.

GATSU GATSU RAMEN REVIEWS

Excellent Ramen, I ate the famous one recommended for the owner and was delicious. The place is small but you can enjoy from a quiet moment feeling the japanese ambience.

Love the ramen here, broths are excellent with welcome diversity in flavours. Onsen eggs are my favourite side and wish they were available more often.

Absolutely delicious!!! If it's Ramen you want, it's Ramen you'll get!! Feel good food! Fried squid delish! Desserts were nice too! Matcha misu...delish.

BENTO ON YORK STREET REVIEWS

This is the BEST Bento in Tasmania. Whenever I visit Launceston I always try to have a meal here. This evening I tried the new Custom Dinner Box as it was an easy way to pick a variety of their different dishes. As always everything was fresh and delicious

Tasty modern Japanese restaurant with good service. We ordered udon, bento box and few sushi rolls. All of them were really nice. It is quite comfortable to eat in, it has nice and modern interior design

Good selection of Japanese food in a casual cosy restaurant. Donburi, Bento, Sushi etc. Presentation of Donburi & Bento for eat-in looks appetizing and also delicious. Large portion as compared to other similar restaurants. Eat in or takeaway. Polite & efficient service.
