Great service, but a little bit pushing towards the end as there is a time limit for the dining. Overall, the quality was maintained well from the past.

Food great as always, but our seating wasn't great. I wanted a charcoal grill seat but ended up with a downstairs seat. I even brought friends from China with me since this is a place I frequent but we were a bit disappointed.

food was great, tasted of high quality, service was average - forgetting to serve our sashimi and also not serving the rice upfront with the meats until we asked.

It was my second visit to Wagyu Ya. As always, Wagyu Ya has the best Wagyu beef and authentic Japanese dishes to serve, we really enjoyed our dinner at Wagyu Ya, will definitely book again when we visit next time.

The food is good but services is a big let down. It reminds me why I haven't gone back for a while and I feel like I went in a Chinese restaurant type of service. I was still half way eating, the waitress said You finished, and trying to take my dipping sauce and bowl away. I was so shocked and she didn't apologies or anything. And given you paid such a high premium price but you only get one and half hour sitting, I don't think it is really worth it anymore. It is a shame as the food was quite nice.

The food was delicious but the service was average. And being only allowed 90 minutes to dine when we spent $400 was very inappropriate. Thank you.

One of the best Japanese BBQ restaurant in Melbourne. Restaurant is too small (or too busy) so it's not for first date. Nice meats slightly expensive.

Food was great albeit a little expensive. Atmosphere also great; staff very helpful and when ordered, food was brought out and cooked quickly. Expect to spend over $150 per person; the set meals can be a less expensive option.

We had a great dinner at Wagyu Ya. We had the charcoal grill which was fun and something we hadn't experienced before at a Japanese restaurant. The service was good too. We were a group of 8 and the only thing I found a bit annoying was when confirming our booking it was stated we only had the table for 1.5 hours. When doing a set menu or several courses with a group of people this is a tight time frame and makes the experience less enjoyable if you feel pushed for time. In the end the restaurant wasn't that busy so it didn't matter. However I think its a current trend that is very off-putting.

The service was rather slow and the wait staff appeared to be quite forgetful. Understandably, it was quite a busy evening, but this was still a bit of a disappointment given Wagyu Ya was always one of our favourite places to go and celebrate.

Meat was very tender and tasty. Atmosphere was comfortable with good lighting. Price is quite high but to be expected with the quality of meat.

Good food, but a bit small. On the pricey side, but would be nice for special occasions. If you generally enjoy Japanese BBQ's, definitely try this place.

Amazing food and cozy atmosphere. The variety was fantastic and every dish (even including the fruit punch we ordered) was delicious. Only downside is that we waited quite a while to be seated despite booking beforehand, and as they are so busy, were only allowed a limited time for you to be seated at the restaurant.
