Japanese restaurant in Wellington

“Awesome little sushi place, good food and value”

“OMG that Sapasui and Creamy Surumi was so tasty. Will be back for sure!!”

“The sushi was excellent! The salmon felt like it was melting in my mouth, it was so buttery and smooth. Also I definitely recommend trying the cream puffs, they are really light and it feels like they pop in your mouth. The staff are really friendly! The seating area is a bit tight tho.”

“Got dinner here with my wife our first night in Wellington, mostly because it was near the craft market we visited first. Food was good and well-worth the price, even had enough leftovers for another meal the following day since we had a fridge in our hotel. Not where I would go if I was looking for high-end authentic Japanese food but would absolutely go again and recommend for a quick bite, my wife liked the katsu enough that we've worked to find places with good katsu at home in Chicago. Seating was inside but open to a busy street, it wasn't problematic but is worth knowing depending on your mood.”

“Chicken Katsu, everything is so delicious, tidy , friendly environment and just overall love the quality of the food. Top tier ❤️”

“We love this place, food is always great, hot and fresh. They cook it in front of you and it’s very entertaining, kid friendly or fun for a few drinks as the start of a good night”

“So yummy at an eco price. Good to test.”

“Super friendly! Affordable! Quality! So glad you guys are here in petone and big thanks to the lad for helping me arrange alternative payment! You guy's make my day”

“Best food and it's always fresh”

“Handy little sushi shop within a larger mall complex. I picked up an end of day assortment for $5. Still fresh and tasty, loved the purple rice. It’s a bit of a lucky dip of fillings. Will be back for more :)”

“. (05/2018) This one is among top 3 in my list of Sushi restaurants in Wellington. Conveniently located over busy Lambton Quay and can be easily missed if not carefully looked out for. Easily accessible. Well managed, organised and nicely maintained. Sushi is on display for the customers to pick around from the standing area with detailed info provided for people with specific dietary requirements. Spacious but limited seating. Excellent ambiance and cosy atmosphere. Self-service. Helpful staff. Plentiful food options. Have not noticed these many delicious Sushi options to choose from for vegans and vegetarians at any other Sushi restaurant. Yum preparations. Good presentation. Offers takeaways. Good place for quick bite. Normally busy during peak hours. Reservation cannot be made in advance. PayWave facility is available at this location. Could not notice wheelchair accessible seating or high chair in plain view at this location. Outdoor seating is not available. There is no dedicated parking area available for this restaurant although street parking can be found around the entrance. Entrance is wheelchair accessible. Liked the experience.”

“Good selection, delicious sushi. Great for lunch takeaway so close to the Terrace.”

“Loved it I’ll def come back soon”

“Always, always high quality, been going for years and have never once had an issue. Love the sushi and every staff member is always so helpful and welcoming! Love this store. Will always try to go here above others!!”

“This is quality sushi. The dishes are fresh and the price reasonable. The train itself goes very quickly so you have to be a little nimble to grab your dish without making a mess. Good variety and made-to-order items available too.”

“My first of, no doubt, many meals from here. I had a Curry Chicken Don and it was just delicious. Full of flavour and good value too. There's a great range on the menu to look forward to.”

“I try vegan ramen everywhere I go, and The Ramen Shop in Wellington goes above and beyond! From two vegan ramen broth options (mushroom shoyu or spicy miso), to vegan Kimchi, tofu bao, and a Mapo Tofu rice bowl, everything from the clean food to the ambiance and excellent service, keep coming back!”

“I went here for lunch yesterday not expecting anything too crazy good, but I was blown away!! The ramen I ordered was the yuzu miso ramen and I added kimchi. It was so delicious! The portion size was perfect and all the flavours melted together beautifully! The broth was really flavourful and the yuzu flavour got stronger towards the end. The kimchi was yummy and crunchy and slightly sweet. The pork slices were thick and charred and tender. The staff were very friendly and food came out relatively quickly. Definitely the best ramen I’ve had in Welly so far.”

“Cosy cafe in the heart of Lambton quay. Tried a rice noodle chicken dish and it was amazing. Would highly recommend.”

“Delicious and fresh. Best salmon sushi I've ever had. Specially made fresh avocado sushi for the kids.”

“Perfect food for a wet weather day. The service was within a good wait time & the dish was yummy as I finished the entire lot. Very enjoyable but shame about the smokers hanging around out the front the entire time i was there having lunch.”

“Great little spot, very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, and friendly service. I love Vietnamese food and I have to say, those in-house wontons were out the gate.. a top notch dining experience !”

“This place does amazing tasting and fresh sushi! Probably the best sushi in Wellington (potentially also London like my review initially said but that's probably not a useful comparison...).”

“Airport food is usually more miss than hit! But for a change this place is the latter. Had spicy chicken with a salad, and it was delicious. If you’re in Wellington airport and you need something yummy + a good portion size, this is your place! 5 stars!”

“Great stuff. I just think they need a rebrand or a redesign of their place.”

“We buy almost weekly lunch for our home office day and are always very satisfied with the sushi. Easy to come, to grab and go, meanwhile the stuff knows me and always greets me very friendly.”

“i always get the katsu bowl from this place and it’s always delicious they are very sweet and very fast!”

“I had THE TASTIEST Wonton Noodle Soup with Prawns! The broth was super tasty, everything was fresh, service was fast and friendly, highly recommend!”

“The SPS Petone ladies are always happy and accommodating! Always a nice feel in the shop.”

“On my way home from work yesterday, I stopped by this sushi shop and bought three boxes of sushi. The salmon and avocado were very fresh, and the sushi was delicious. Even though it was close to closing time, they still provided excellent service. I highly recommend this place!”
