Reviews of i Japanese Cafe
T.Looking for Lunch location while visiting Hamilton? Then you should definitely consider this Cafe. We ordered chicken curry and Teriyaki and tempura set. Both comes with salad and miso soup. Curry added with beef and make it taste unique. Tempura were nicely done and teriyaki chicken was nicely grilled.
C.I love going to this place. My Saturday lunch is always reserved for going here. Arguably the best Japanese in NZ.
R.Taste is 5 stars for me. Decent portion sizes as well as decently priced. We ordered the teriyaki salad with beef and another with chicken; these come with miso soup as well as the gyoza dumplings and hot plate prawn to share. The sauce that came with the hot plate prawn was so delicious we ordered some more on the side. The gyoza dumplings were actually quite bigger than I expected which was great. Left this place feeling deliciously satisfied and wanting to try more.
M.We stopped by while passing through Hamilton, we were entirely delighted. The service is a bit slow, but the food it extremely well prepared. The ingredients tasted fresh and the cooking style was close to authentic (we've had Japanese the world over - including Japan).
The goyza, tonkatsu, salmon and akedashi tofu were all really yummy. A special callout for the salmon belly. They also have a set plate for vegetarians.
The staff was friendly and prompt.
C.Another quick and delicious lunch by Taku and his team. I had the Teriyaki pork and tempura prawn and veg. Always busy and worth the wait if there is one. Thank you
T.The best Japanese restaurant in NZ, chicken teriyaki is tasty, not overly sweet like many others. Katsu curry is my favourite too. Great service.
S.First time ever been to Japanese restaurant. Not expensive. We can get different types of food. Quick service, well mannered staff
J.The food is just delicious. It has become my first choice for special occasions. It is a small place so would not be suitable for large groups or parties. I've enjoyed every meal I've had here and the food is devine. The sides alone are enough to make the trip, great miso, great dumplings, and it's a cosy setting.
M.I had the lunchbox and it had all sorts in there, just the right amount and beautiful fresh sashimi. Husband had the steak on hot plate, it was sizzling hot and came with a fried potato fritter and salad and rice. Just the right amount (and he's a 'quantity' man). Great service, little waiting time. Worth the price and did not disappoint. The table next to us ordered teriyaki chicken with prawns on a hotplate. It was a bigger meal with a bit more cost, but would be perfect if I was really hungry.
T.Their food is first class. I've been going there for years, and it's consistently good. The staff are wonderful and friendly. Good first dish to try of theirs is Chicken Teriyaki Donburi! But everything is amazing!
L.Good Japanese food here but the amount of food not suit New Zealand.
S.Always a great experience. Lovely staff. Generally worth booking ahead if you want to eat around midday as it's a popular spot!
Y.Love it. Waited for 2 hours but still willing to eat here. Great sashimi
T.Incredible Japanese food. Highly recommended.
L.My favourite Japanese restaurant in Hamilton. Highly recommend getting their chicken teriyaki donburi and gyoza 10/10. Also reasonably priced for the quality and quantity of food you’re receiving. The staff are super kind and polite. Thank you for the amazing food.
A.Have been to numerous Japanese restaurants across NZ - certainly love coming here regularly. Hands down the best Chicken Katsu Curry in Hamilton.
J.Good food. Busy environment. Excellent customer service. Very friendly staff.
E.Good selection of Japanese dishes and at great prices.
S.delicious food and friendly staffs. We didn't book a table for five people since we were not sure the arrival time. Staffs were kind and helped us find a table. Nice restaurant.
T.The Japanese owner/chef has been serving high-quality food persistently in the past 20 years! We have been visiting them when we were students.Love to eat here. The food is delicious and good portions. Its a cosy place, friendly staff.
D.Exceptional, food is outstanding, very well priced, I do recommend booking a table though as it gets very busy
Q.One of the best Japanese restaurants in town. Biggest drawback is the limited opening hours, doesn't serve dinner and not open on Sundays. Food is really good (for Hamilton Japanese standards). Pretty good value for money in terms of serving size and quality. Would definitely be worth a visit if you're feeling like Japanese.
J.The best Japanese restaurant in New Zealand. The Japanese owner/chef has been serving high-quality food persistently in the past 20 years! We have been visiting them when we were students. Would love to go more often, but unfortunately, they only do Mon-Sat lunch. But still, the food has always been great!
Great food, great price, and great volume.
Must order: Chicken Katsu Set, Deep Fried Tofu

J.(Translated) It's always crowded at lunchtime. This place is also recommended by acquaintances and is a place to come back. I always choose lunch boxes and enjoy a variety of menus together.
(Original)
점심시간이 되면 언제나 사람이 몰리는 곳. 이곳 역시 지인의 추천으로 방문한 곳인데 다시 오게 되는 장소이다. 나는 항상 도시락을 선택해서 다양한 메뉴를 함께 즐긴다.
I.(Translated) A Japanese owner's shop with Japanese staff.
All items come with miso soup.
The taste is light, but it is recommended for Japanese people who are tired of the rich taste.
You can enjoy a variety of menus, from light dishes such as yakisoba, udon, and fried chicken to menus that you can eat well!
(Original)
日本人スタッフもいる、日本人オーナーのお店。
全品、味噌汁付き。
味は薄目だが、こってりの味に飽きた日本人にはオススメです。
焼きそばやうどん、唐揚げといった軽いものからしっかり食べられるメニューまで、様々なメニューが楽しめます！
