Australians have a slight obsession with Japanese food. From silky bowls of ramen and glossy slithers of sashimi to crispy gyoza and bite-sized sushi rolls, we’d go to great lengths for a taste of Tokyo. Luckily, you don’t need to splurge on a ticket to Tokyo, since we’re blessed with some of the finest Japanese restaurants Down Under. Steeped in precision and ancient traditions, Japanese cuisine is a meticulous art form in its own right. In Australia, you’ll find highly awarded chefs firing Kobe beef right before your eyes, grandmas pouring fragrant teas and sake in cosy izakayas, and new-wave cooks serving high-end sashimi in exquisite omakases. Whether you’re after no-frills or all of the frills, here are some of the best Japanese restaurants in Australia. 🍽 All the best restaurants in Australia🐠 The best fish and chips in Australia🍕Where to find the best pizza in Australia

James Parker Sushi and Sake is the upscale Japanese restaurant Perth never knew it needed. What better way to dine than with sushi in one hand and sake in the other? That’s exactly what awaits when you step into this elegant venue, which looks almost like an exhibition space in the Museum of Modern Art. As for the menu, must try’s include the premium aburi salmon roll, spicy tuna tartar with soy-marinated egg yolk, and Margaret River Wagyu tataki with ponzu jelly.
