“I was in Auckland for a conference and for one week and nearly everyday, I visited this place! I am a big Ramen fan and the Ramen of this restaurant just catched my attention and it was perfect! Sorry for the boring image collection of just one dish, which I ate 4 times there, but it was just so delicious. It is called Hell Ramen, which you can order in different spice levels. I started somewhere in the middle (which was already very spicy) and traveled the ladder up to the highest spice level and it was so good! Thanks to the family that runs this place! You were very nice!”

“A hidden gem that serves up some fantastic ramen and other dishes. Went here with my fiancée to grab some ramen and katsu after a long day of adventures and hikes. They are in a rather odd location, a warehouse district with no discerning signs of a restaurant in the heart of it. However if you have the drive it has definitely worth a stop. Staff is super friendly and dishes come out piping hot. Would just mention that there isn’t a ton of seating inside and outside so larger parties may run into some obstacles there. However a more intimate dinner date is easy.”

“The sushi platter we ordered from Sushi Plus for our child’s 2nd birthday party was absolutely fantastic! It was not only delicious but also beautifully presented with vibrant, colorful rolls that looked as good as they tasted. The variety was impressive, with something for everyone to enjoy, and each piece was fresh and perfectly made and added a special touch to the celebration. Highly recommend Sushi Plus for any event!”

“The sushi is always fresh, flavourful, and beautifully made. Service is fast, friendly, and the atmosphere feels cozy and welcoming. Definitely one of my favourite sushi spots”

“Great service and mouth-watering, authentic Japanese food! We ordered the vegetable tempura, katsu, tuna sashimi, and squid ink udon — and loved every dish. Nothing disappointed. Everything was beautifully presented with authentic flavours. Despite the busy atmosphere, our food and drinks arrived quickly, and the waitstaff were attentive and efficient.”
