Iori Japanese Restaurant

Pricey and the food didn't seem very authentic. Will give it a miss next time...

Waiting staff are dressed in traditional Japanese outfits, and there is a seating area that lets you sit normally while looking just like a Japanese dining room.

Food is absolutely delicious, beautifully presented... and there is a lot of it in a banquet! A highlight was the sake menu, with varieties you will not have tried, and good advice from the waiters to help to choose the perfect accompaniment to your meal!

Really great food at reasonable prices. They were possibly understaffed that evening and while the food came out reasonably quickly, they did forget to deliver one of the dishes that were ordered. The staff were extremely friendly and professional.

Decor also possibly needs an update. The CRT television mounted on the wall and other embellishments definitely gave the whole restaurant a tired, old feel.

Everything else aside, we will still be returning for the amazing food.

Great food and service. Recommend making a booking

The most authentic Japanese restaurant in Canberra. They're friendly and the food is amazing! It's actually quite nice to see they don't exclusivity hire Asian staff, as many of the waiters are Australian uni students.

Love it! Nice environment nice layout great food and waitresses are just the friendliest thta I've ever met. Greeted with surprise complementary food.

The food was average and overpriced, with our soft shelled crab being undercooked and tasteless. The service was attentive but servers were distracted.

Great Japanese food. Definitely more expensive than most places but worthwhile. Come here a few times and they are very consistent. Service is decent, extensive alcohol list, great menu suitable for anyone. Will be back soon

Fresh sashimi and authentic Japanese cuisine with very reasonable price!

The food is great but the atmosphere is even better

What a nice little surprise. Best Japanese food in Canberra so far.

excellent Japanese cuisine, authentic and good service, but its pricey
