Matsumoto have gone with QR codes and robot waiters. This has meant a new floor and a sparser atmosphere. Despite the automation, there was a 10% service charge for weekend and public holiday! Food is still good however.

Seems to have lost a lot of its character and appeal in recent years. The renovation a few years back has left it with a cold feeling, app ordering and robots mean little interaction with staff (who used to be lovely), and the portion sizes have seriously shrunk! Spring rolls used ti be 6-8 in a serve, now 5. Gyoza, the same. You used to get a little dish of pickled vegetables on arrival, and now that’s gone. A real shame. Overall the food was solid, but the experience was definitely lacklustre compared to past years, and the value for money much reduced.

It was fine, I would stick with the sushi over the more substantial dishes. Just too saucy and salty.

Lacks the care and atmosphere of a real japanese restaurant. Quality has dropped. But that said good personal service. Robots diver the food which is good fun. Nasu degaku and chicken karate enjoyable. Rest of menu (didn't have any sushi) so so. Needs a tidy up

It’s a state of art dining experience however the e-menu should be more user friendly. The staff should approach us and offer any help when we are struggling to utilise the e-menu. The food is A-maz-ING. We didn’t need to wait very long to be serve with sumptuous food. It’s hot and healthy. We expect more vegetarian and vegan choices. The staff are friendly and helpful on need basis. Highly recommend for any Japanese lovers in Brunswick.

Excellently prepared and presented Japanese food. The QR code ordering worked well and the prices represent good value for money. The delivery robots look a bit like Daleks but neither of them said "exterminate" so I didn't worry.

Good food but the service was really poor especially because now there is a robot helping the staff and there is no interaction. It doesn’t help to improve the quality of the service

Friendly staff & great food make this a restaurant you want to come back to. Hard to beat the deluxe sushi & sashimi ‘boat’ for fresh seafood & wow factor although the unagi sushi is delicious as well. Try the yakatori entree, just yum!

Some things are done well but there were items in the bento boxes that seemed pre prepared and refrigerated (not fresh) eg California rolls.
