Izakaya Hosaku

Lovely Japanese restaurant with beautiful sashimi and dishes. Would recommend the mocktails as well!

Great service. Friendly staff. Cute and cosy restaurant. Fantastic food. Well priced for high quality sushi/Sashimi. The lunch sets are good value! Cocktails are yummy

Thank you! The food was amazing and will definitely be back again!

Lovely dinner , the Japanese dishes were fresh with lots of flavour . Staff were attentive and ready at hand . Premises were clean and tidy. We had the 2 person banquet which was more than enough. Will come back again

Staff were so lovely and accommodating. Food was fantastic quality.

The staff are great and the food is amazing. Thank you.

Great! I celebrate my birthday here and feel really warmed.

I ordered Sushi Omakase 12pcs.it is very fresh but Scampi,Aburi and Toro with Chilli powder.Taste terrible I don’t know why used chilli powder with Nigiri sushi!!impossible!!Ikura and caviar are fine.I felt taste chilli only..

Polite service but this sushi and sashimi selection was not as nice as the first time I tried it. The miso soup was a bit cold.

Nice venue tucked away in a quieter part of Melbourne CBD We ordered a sushi plate, tuna tartare and the wagyu fried rice with bone marrow to share between two. There was a Sunday surcharge of 10% - bill ended up being ~$100 not including drinks Service was quick and the staff were very attentive.

Great Japanese food, love this place and the food, will definitely come visit again.

Very nice environment and food, dessert section is abit disappointing, but overall was a nice experience

The Bento lunch boxes are delicious. Fresh sashimi and great sides. Nice service too.

Great service, nice presentation of food. Sashimi and sushi were delicious. The karage chicken and pork cutlet for the curry were quite dry. But everything else was good.

Service & food were excellent. I will return next time I am in Melbourne.

The staff were friendly and attentive and the food was great

Excellent foods, Environment and Services, Highly Recommend...Will return again soon...

The food was delicious and good customer service, I had a good experience at this restaurant.

Good and tasty meals witj a range of variety for all

Sashimi is very good Tufo not worth to try it

Great, we like the new promotion buy 2 lunch sets get 1 free

Very good service and exceptional food, must try . 😋

I visited with a group of around 8 and they had no trouble servicing us, and the food was excellent.

Everything we had was so good. I would highly recommend the hosaku sashimi sudoku box which was really good. All the staff were friendly and attentive. Would definitely come back!

From the minute we arrived, the experience was fabulous. The set menu was an array of incredibly delicious, beautifully presented dishes. The service was efficient, friendly and very caring. We loved the whole experience

Tasty dishes, fresh ingredients and flavoursome, well presented menu items. Seating arrangements are limited though, and staff not aware that mopping floor for the day with strong smelling disinfectant near customers tables is offputting. Service was friendly though. Would visit again

unfortunately it seemed quiet when we were there Sunday lunch. hope they are very busy most times as food is well presented n delicious. bonus was we got undivided attention.

The oysters and takoyaki were the best I've ever had.

Small but cozy aesthetic. Sushi/sashimi tasted amazing!! Also staff are friendly and give great recommendations

The set menu is a good choice for people who has difficulty in choosing.

Great service and food! The sets were reasonably priced and portions were just right for two of us.

It's been a long time since I've had a good Japanese food in Australia.

Had the most amazing food and the service was great, got very good food/drink recommendations from staff. Salmon aburi was amazing and the Yuzu sour is too easy to drink!

Food was amazing and well worth the visit. Music was very strange though for the setting ( loud pop music) and didn’t suit the venue or quality if the food.

Amazing japanese food!! Love to come again. Thank you very much for dinner today

Food quality is great, but the quantity is quite small, and the price is very high.

We visited Izakaya Hosaku during a short lunch time, the food is really good. We ordered 2 Washoku Sets, Wagyu Fried Rice, and Mackerel Fried Rice, all of them are really good and tasteful. The service was quick and all the staff are friendly as well. We would definitely go back!

Thank you very much. great experience and service. definitely will be back

Good But a bit disappointed about their truffle fried rice Can not feel the taste about the truffle even not having fragrance.

Great service, food was delicious and well priced, highly recommend

Good and host was amazing service given to us would go again

Enjoyed the hospitality here. Staff is friendly and service was great. Ordered the Sashimi tasting box which boasts 9 different mixed seafood which was very fresh! I also got their sushi omakase which contain 12 pieces of sushi and they’re delicious! Will come back again.

A hidden treasure when it comes to amazing Japanese food.

Service was extremely attentive and menu was delicious. Food was more on the expensive side, but you get what you pay for. Would go back!

Very friendly staff, nice dishes and food options. Good experience

Very delicious food, and such lovely staff. Very attentive! My favourite dish would be the salmon citrus and waygu tataki! Highly recommend.

Great food and we had a great experience for a team lunch

Good quality of food Good variety of food Cocktail was good too

The Mains portion too small. We spend $300 for a family of 3

It was a Japanese "izakaya" with Japanese staff. We ordered the shorter of the shared courses. I lived many years in Japan. One of the staff, Sayaka, was a graduate of the same university as my Head of Dept (at another university where I taught for 14 years in Japan)...it seemed a small world moment. And another worker there was from Jakarta - an aunt of mine moved there as a toddler from Bangka Island early post-WWII - all my aunt's family still live in Jakarta - a population nowadays of 30 million. Not quite a small world moment. But a pleasant addition to the evening.
