Tokyo Laundry offers a sophisticated take on the traditional Japanese Izakaya style of food and socialising, delivering authentic flavours and an envious drinks menu that will find a home for those who seek a unique experience.

Not able to get to Japan this year, my partner and I opted for a taste of Tokyo right here in Sydney. We did the set menu and it was just awesome. A great selection of dishes, wide range of flavours and textures and best of all, the service by the Tokyo Laundry staff is just perfect. Love love loved it.

The best! Flavour excitement that always wakes up the palate. Beautiful staff. Value for money. Relaxing, chic decor and extremely satisfying. The chefs’ efforts are superb without the arrogance from a high… level of service. Keep it up! It’s a breathe of fresh air in the current over-indulgent atmosphere of Sydney food scene.

We are very fond of Japanese culture, so much so, that Japan is the country we chose to visit for our honeymoon a few years ago. It’s a cuisine that is number one choice for us when trying to decide where to dine. We like the clean food, quality proteins and flavour combinations, amidst the careful planning and plating. When we heard about Tokyo Laundry, we were overwhelmingly happy to visit.
The location couldn’t be more convenient, only about 100 metres from Circular Quay station. In the Gateway Plaza, it occupies a spacious area of the first floor, seating for 180 customers. We got the

Late of a Saturday, we pounced upon an open table at Tokyo Laundry close to kitchen closing-time when many other establishments were already shut or fully booked. What a fortunate turn of events, because we had a fantastic experience. Dishes with texture, flavor, precision, balance all delighted us with nobody complaining about their various choices. Water was frequently topped up and we felt well attended to with the food arriving in good time. Worth another look when visiting the Circular Quay area.

Lovely place - been back a few times. The lamb cutlets and oysters were wonderful. And my partner really liked the beef tataki. I feel like the restaurant's recent change to the menu means it isn't quite as good - but hopefully the new season brings it right back up again. It's nice that the restaurant is tucked away a little making it quieter and less busy than the ribs house nearby.

There is a very beautiful atmosphere and ambience to this restaurant despite it's funky name.
The decor is stylish, yet quirky and intriguing, but once the food and sake arrive, it all builds up making a great experience.
The staff are very friendly, and the food is simply beautiful and exquisite in their presentation and flavouring of balance and ascendancy.
There is a range of sake that suits a range of taste, palates and food pairing. It's a bit of a shame I don't have the liver to try the cocktails too, but they certainly caught my eye.
A definite place to revisit, solo, couple or group
