Review/Comments: I have searched far and wide, for years, trying to find the perfect sushi and sashimi restaurant. Constantly on the look out for the freshest, most scrumptious sushi and sashimi. Look no further. Daruma Japanese Restaurant in the heart of Sydney has by far the best sushi/sashimi I have ever devoured.
Daruma Japanese Restaurant is nestled away within the little-known Prince Centre within Haymarket, directly opposite Paddy’s Market and diagonally-opposite the UTS Library. Upon entry I was greeted with some of the friendliest staff I have ever encountered, customer-service is of the highest quality here and will be returning simply as a result of the stupendous level of respect shown towards the customers by the staff.
Midday, and the restaurant is alive with students, due to the high-quality, filling meals which are brilliantly priced. Whilst at night, the restaurant is a teeming with families, couples and friends enjoying a high-quality meal. Daruma is one of the better-looking restaurants I have indulged in, set on the first level of the Prince theatre, restaurant-goers are presented with an exciting view of the city surroundings. The restaurant is well-lit, with an authentic Japanese-feel, due to the array of decorations and ornaments!
On to the important stuff... the food! I admit, I am no food-expert, or critic, I am unable to cook dinner for myself without burning myself or flooding the kitchen with smoke; however, one thing I am an expert on is Sushi/Sashimi, having sampled hundreds from all over Sydney. I can tell you this. Daruma Japanese Restaurant in Sydney’s CBD has by far the best sushi/sashimi I have ever had the pleasure of consuming. The rice is perfectly cooked, not too chewy, not too dry, just perfect. Whilst the seafood is as fresh as these reviews! If you are ever in town, do yourself and your tastebuds a favor and try the sushi platter! I was also lucky enough to enjoy the Chichiku (fish cake with cheese), which was an interesting dish. The Teriyaki chicken and Karaage chicken were also pleasant, whilst the seared salmon had me thinking dreaming of its tender, mouth-watering texture well into the next week! The chilli-mayo prawns was also a scrumptious dish. Overall, the food at Daruma was second-to-none.
I visited Daruma over four weeks ago and I am still smiling as a result of the wonderful experience I had. If you want the best Sushi/Sashimi in Sydney and some of the best Japanese cuisine this city has to offer at a great price, as well as the friendliest customer service you will encounter, look no further than Daruma Japanese Restaurant!
