It was old year’s eve in Brisbane and I believe that many places are quiet but I stupidly booked in the bar/lounge area instead of in the actual restaurant at the bar/counter. The area we were in was dead! We decided to start with some sake ( which I love having visited Japan some years again and tasting a vast range), this venue had an extensive menu. We were advised to try a very pricy but superb one to start. Dry,chilled and refreshing. We ordered the crisp rice spicy tuna bites. The server that dropped them at our table aptly said “ eat these first because they will change your life”! They were honestly delish. The three sashimis we chose were salmon, tuna and kingfish. Salmon won hands down. We moved onto a red rice sake that was a lot more fruity and sweet. We paired it with seared salmon rolls which were soft and super tasty. I happened to visit the WC and walked through the main restaurant only to be really disappointed at where we sat for dinner but I always book online so if you are planning to visit the Sushi Room and book online - make note.

One of our fav meals everrrr. So many good places around the valley but this one is definitely a stand out. Obsessed w the spicy tuna crispy rice, sashimi and duck but honestly everything is so good. Cannot wait to come back.

I really loved the wagyu & foie gras sushi — it was so good that I ordered four of them 🤤🍣. The Hinata drink was super refreshing too. I’ll definitely be back for the amazingly fresh fish and seafood here! Fresh fish + seafood here = unbeatable.. I could felt the souls in their tempura fish …(._.)…

I had very high expectations for Sushi Room because of all the stellar reviews. First of all, the service was impeccable, the staff were attentive, polite and professional throughout our visit. We ordered the $65 lunch set with wagyu sirloin. While it delivered the level of quality you’d expect at this price point, there were a few details I couldn’t help but notice: 1. The soy sauce tasted like a standard soy sauce without any special touch or customisation. 2. The nigiri was served too cold, both the rice and the fish. One piece in particular felt as if it had just come straight from the fridge. 3. The presentation of the steak was inconsistent between the two plates. Not only the plating looked quite different, my portion was much fattier than my partner’s, almost as if they were different cuts. 4. I ordered a serve of rice to go with the steak, expecting plain steamed rice. Instead, I was served warm vinegared sushi rice, which didn’t quite pair as well with the steak. Overall, it was a good lunch and reasonably priced. However, for the same price point, or with a small step up in cost, I think there are better options offering higher quality.

10/10 for the wholesome experience, the most delicious food (best sashimi we ever had in Brisbane, hands down) and for the loveliest and genuine staff for their impeccable customer service throughout the night. We were well looked after, and it’s a memorable birthday experience which I will remember for a long, long time. 🙏🏼 Thank you to everyone in the team (shoutout especially to Timothy!) for looking after us and for the wonderful dining experience. From today onwards, we will be finding every reason and excuse to come back here with friends to celebrate every joy in our lives 🤣🫶🏼 Most highly recommend to every foodie to visit Sushi Room and enjoy the experience dining here. So worth it. 🍣🥰
