We were in the area, it was late, we were hungry and we wanted Japanese food. Luckily for us we stumbled upon this place. There was a decent variety of items on the menu from which we ordered the Yuzu Karage Chicken Donburi, Tofu and Vegetable Udon, Salmon Sashimi, Mini Cucumber rolls and the Hiramasa Kingfish.
The Hiramasa Kingfish was absolutely fantastic. The sauce was so tasty and putting a little bit of everything in one bite was delicious. I'm not a chilli person but that little slice of chili helped to make that dish more tasty and it wasn't too hot.

Read moreWe recently enjoyed a delicious meal at Haku, in the Newmarket complex, Randwick. The staff are pleasant and kindly answered questions we had regarding the menu. It wasn’t busy on the night we visited so food came out quickly. The food was flavoursome and textured as expected. I particularly was looking forward to the chicken katsu curry which did not disappoint. Haku is great for casual dining with friends or even on your own… but go and bring your friends and support a good, little...
