My favourite dish is the Sukiyaki - mounds of fresh vegetables and thinly sliced beef cooked in the most delicious broth at your table. Mouth watering just to think about it!

I have been dining at Matsuya for several years now and have always been very happy with my experiences there. The food is very good, prices are reasonable - usually $25 per person including drinks - and the service is friendly and efficient. The decor of the restaurant is clean and concise, typical of a Japanese restaurant. If I were to change anything about this restaurant it would be to alter the decor somewhat, making it a little warmer and more relaxed.
They are very accommodating for those with babies too; there is enough room to wheel a pram through the doors and to your table, plus space to park it!
I highly recommend their seaweed salad :) yum!!
A note for vegetarians - Matsuya have a separate vegie menu, make sure you request a copy and order from here as many of the seemingly vegetarian dishes on the regular menu have fish products in them. Something which is common to most Japanese restaurants, but most don't cater for us as well as Matsuya!

Because I am used to eating at really good quality but cheap-and-cheerful Japanese restaurants, I sort of got what I expected when I ate at Matsuya. Their prices are much higher than what I am used to paying but their food was great as was their service. I recall it being rather noisy inside and the ambiance being a little more geared towards families - not that there is anything wrong with that...

Approximate cost: $~$18.00

Yum! This is the best value lunch in town - and one of the healthiest. Most of the lunch items are under $10, and come with Miso soup. The servings are ample and fresh. The service is generally prompt and friendly.

Approximate cost: $10

Great food, served hot or cold, and just right. Presentation is outstanding as you would expect from a Japanese restuarant. The service can improve though. Always a high demand, so book if you want a seat!!
