A little bit of Japan in Hobart. The Orizuru Sushi Bar is a popular stop for locals. The Sushi Bar run by the Hatano family is traditional in every way. The Japanese Sushi chefs create gastronomic and visual delights with the very best of Tasmania's unsurpassable seafood.

"In general, a good unpretentious Japanese restaurant with genuine Japanese food, and good service. The ingredients were fresh with the sushi melting in the mouth, the Yakatori was perfectly cooked as was the Tempura. The only thing I could fault was that there was a little too much Wasabi on the Nigiri, thus overpowering the taste of the other ingredients."

"For anyone who even remotely likes Sushi, once you've sampled the delightful cuisine of Orizuru, you will be a return customer. We have been back time and time again and have never had reason for complaint. (Try the Green Tea Icecream)" more reviews

Lovely lunches - quick service and great flavours. The sushi is made with care and attention (not the usual conveyer-belt fare), and the tempura is fantastic. The prices (about $15-$17 for a lunch course) reflect the higher standard and authentically-prepared food, but are definitely worth paying. Lovely view over the Hobart docks if you can get a window seat. (CJ - See my reviews (51) - June, 2007)

"Orizuru occupies part of the Victoria Dock side of the Mures Fish Centre and is one of Hobart’s most relaxed eating places..."

Sue Dyson and Roger McShane, Food Tourist - January 2008

"Orizuru continues to command repeat visits from locals and tourists with its informal mood and excellent seafood, most of which is locally sourced. The wine list is limited but a Tasmanian riesling such as the Freycient, complements the food well."

Anthea Loucas, Gourmet Traveller 2007 Australian Restaurant Guide - October 2006

"For almost 20 years Orizuru has been serving some of the finest sashimi and sushi in the country. This place has it all - an alluring waterfront location, flapping-fresh fish delivered straight from Mures's fishing boat that moors metres away, and a chef who knows how to select and respectfully prepare it."
