Nazimi is perhaps one of the best and most affordable Japanese restaurants in the Sydney CBD. This restaurant is a hidden gem, but is very well known amongst regulars. They also make the best teriyaki chicken I have ever eaten!

You may need to line up a bit because so many people but not a long wait, the food there is quite good, reasonable price with reasonable quality, I will go again for sure.

I had a lunch catch up at Nazimi Japanese restaurant with a friend. The place is small but the atmosphere is very cosy. The restaurant was fully packed during lunchtime, so it was lucky my friend went there first to get a table. We ordered oysters with ponzu sauce to share, karage, california rolls and eel rice. Everything is delicious and the oysters were very fresh. The karage chicken was yummy and I requested for more Japanese mayonnaise with that. The wait staff were very friendly and efficient, we didn't need to wait for long for the food to arrive. Reasonable price for Japanese meals in the city. A hidden gem in the city area! We will be back again.

I love this Japanese restaurant and I make sure to scedule a lunch or dinner date there whenever I make it in to the city. The food is absolutely fantastic, some of the best Japanese I've had in Sydney and it's not overly priced, after eating there, you'd be happy to pay anything anyway. The staff are just gorgeous, they're always welcoming and friendly. The restaurant itself is very cute and compact, I've had to hold my breath getting in and out of my seat a few times but it's not a bother, it really just adds to the whole cozy experince of fanatsic japanese in a great little basement hideaway off the busy streets of Sydney. An absolute must for any food enthusiast.

Approximate cost: $10-$15 a dish
