WA — Restaurant in Sydney

Wow! So we have been Wa customers for 17 years. When we wanted to eat out, Wa Japanese Restaurant Cafe was our favorite. We had Wa catering - sushi and other yummy dishes - for our son’s 21st birthday party.

I can't help you decided what to get from the edamame, gyoza dumplings, sashimi and sushi, yukitori chicken, karaage chicken and crab, teriyaki beef, pork and chicken. But I do recommend the seaweed salad, the nasu dengaku spicy deep-fried eggplant and the...

Wa Japanese Restaurant is very popular and it is a good idea to book ahead especially if you are in a group of four or more. The food is really tasty and you can specify if you want it spicy or not. Most of the mains come with salad, vegetables and rice. Wa always do a great eggplant entree. The staff are friendly and attentive.
