Japanese restaurant in Auckland

“Good food, w ehad set menu dinner. Fresh sashimi, sushi, beef tataki so good. Chicken teriyaki had good flavor and wings were crispy”

“Depending on who you get if you get the grumpy ol Chinese lady she throws off attitude but I think that's just her as for the food it always taste delicious and is freshly cooked all the workers apart from the above are nice and always offer me a rewards card they have tables to sit and it can be accessible via sliding doors if you are wheelchair bound.”

“Professional sushi food ~I pretty love this restaurant sushi ~and staff are warmth ~ best of the Auckland ~I will be come back again !”

“All round great experience! The staff are kind and check in just enough. The chef was so funny! We had a great time thank you very much. Highly recommend lunch deal, it's a decent portion and doesn't feel heavy afterwards.”

“I just discovered this little place and I will definitely be back! I have eaten Teriyaki Chicken Donburi more times than I can count but yesterday I had possibly the best ever here. Lots of perfectly cooked, succulent and delicious chicken, loaded with also perfectly cooked veggies, over plenty of rice that had just the right amount of sauce. I was asked if I wanted spicy and was advised, if I could tolerate a little spice (I can), it was the tastier choice. Great advice! There was a slight bite to the dish which improved the overall flavour without being so spicy you couldn’t taste anything else. The place is tiny and mostly set up for takeout. There are a few tables along one side but with very uncomfortable furniture. When I’m in the area I prefer to eat in during a break from shopping so more comfortable seating would have been nice. But that’s my only negative. And I like that they have longer hours than the other Japanese place in the area. Loved this little spot, can’t wait to go back!”

“Good food, good ambience and the service was 10/10. Would definitely come back again. Parking is easy and it’s nice and close to the beach + main area where you can grab dessert or other things!”

“Authentic Japanese ramen although I’ve never been but imagined this is what it would be like. As soon as we stepped in greeted by all staff including the chef’s. Service was attentive and food services quick. Food was really delicious and couldn’t fault the entire experience.”

“I'm so sad about almost people order only chicken. Noodles was so great and perfect. Smoky flavor in soup and meat was so yum. In addition, they were so kind.”

“Clean restaurant with friendly staff. I ordered the teriyaki beef udon and it is one of the best udon's I have ever tried”

“My spouse loves this place. They got out of the hospital and the first thing they wanted was to order the udon through UberEats. It's their favourite udon in this city. I also enjoy the salmon teriyaki and chicken katsu donburi and we always get several miso soup as they're quite good.”

“The freshest and best sushi to go, in the area.”

“I had an unforgettable experience at this sushi restaurant! The sushi was incredibly fresh and delicious—each bite was a burst of flavor and beautifully presented. What truly set this place apart, though, was the staff. Every member of the team was exceptionally kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and taken care of throughout our meal. It’s rare to find such a perfect combination of outstanding food and warm, friendly service.”

“This is (in my books) probably one of the best sushi places in the CBD area. A simple menu, that still offers quite a bit to choose from and food that is fresh and tasty. Great place for lunch.”

“The salmon avocado sushi roll and smoked salmon nigiri fried tofu rice was my favourite. The salmon is really fresh and the service is extremely friendly”

“Everytime I've been here, service is 5 star anyway but this branch and staff is exceptional. I came in with a big order and brought my own container with for them to pack it in and they were more than happy to cater to this. Admittedly feel like St Pierre's is long overdue for an upgrade in terms of their plastic packaging, but there is a work around and they cater. 10/5 stars for service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Such delicious Sushi. Staff are friendly and always happy to make fresh sushi to order. So good. Massey is lucky to have such a good sushi option.”

“Came her by myself and just had to bring my partner back the next day. The service is lovely,food is great and the atmosphere is warm and calm. This is going to be a regular for us from now on. Thankyou!”

“I go everyday. This sushi is the best & so fresh, very good price aswell. the customer service is 10/10. she lady is so pure hearted. She is the reason i continue to go everyday aswell as good food lol.”

“Incredible catering for a work lunch, super easy communication and very accommodating to our needs. Food was incredible and everyone commented on how great it was. Our thanks to Serene and James, we will definitely think of you next time!”

“Beautiful clean and friendly. Food is amazing, we love the tofu don, just can’t get enough.”

“Excellent Japanese restaurant nestled away next to Thai village and new world. Presentation was definitely one of the highlights. Sake served in an interesting container. Food was really good too. Highly recommend the lamb ribs. It's a little spicy but perfect with a little rice.”

“Always kind friendly service and carefully prepared quality food. Prefer this restaurant over other St Pierre's. I come regularly for lunch and like the katsu rice ball and sashimi.”

“The ambiance here is super sympa and I do love their healthy and fresh food. A strong recommendation for those who want to enjoy a sound and warm dish before departure:)”

“You aren’t there for atmosphere, but food is awesome and service is super friendly. They make it for you if it’s not already made. And open late!! Whoop!! Have been back many times and will again. Great place for good sushi or cooked Japanese food.”

“First experience and it was amazing, we were able to be sat straight away and the chef was entertaining. Love the monthly special option which we chose and enjoyed being able to add to it. Looking forward to coming back for my next holiday!”

“The better St Pierre branch in the Auckland that offers both hot and cold Japanese food. Healthy and affordable compare to other fast food options in CBD, decent wait time even during the lunch time rush. I am a regular.”

“Had lunch here today and ordered the chicken katsu donburi special for only $17.50. Best value for lunch, as it also comes with a small bowl of miso soup. The chicken katsu was tasty and the serving size is enough to make me full. The salad is good as well as the carrot tempura with dipping sauce. The staff is nice and friendly. Will come back to try the sushi train or some other food in the menu, and better with my family.”

“Even though it is a little expensive, I can't deny the food tasting very good. I would always order either the Vegetable Tempura Noodles [I think?] or the Pork Tonkotsu one [I really can't remember the exact names but something of the sort]. Come out fairly quick and quality has never changed since I started eating here. It's a great place to treat myself. Not to mention the sushis on the constantly moving conveyor belt are also made to great quality and taste. I especially love that one Aburi Prawn one? It just has such a nice taste to it. Great place awesome 10/10 yum yum delicious.”

“I come here quite often and it never disappoints! Service is fast, workers are nice and the quality is pretty good. I’ve never had a bad experience here so it is interesting seeing other peoples reviews.”

“Highly recommended by a Japanese local! The Tonkotsu Ramen here is amazing. They offer three types of ramen: Tonkotsu, Tonkotsu Shoyu, and Yuzu Shoyu. I tried the Tonkotsu and it was absolutely delicious. The noodles were thin with a great texture, and the wontons were soft and juicy. It’s evident that the chef is truly dedicated. I definitely come back! They mentioned that the restaurant had just reopened two weeks ago.”
