Oishii Sushi in Sunnybank Hills

I went here after searching for good sushi places in Brisbane.

I was not disappointed.

AMAZING sushi.

Their tuna sashimi is a generous and gorgeous red serve of very delicious fish.





The Dynamite roll has a great kick to it without being overpowering on the spice. Will definitely have that again.





I also tried the scallops in garlic butter. Had I been sitting inside, they might have stayed hot longer, but the garlic butter sauce was to die for and the scallops were cooked to perfection.





Great experience at Oishii. Highly recommend it and will be going back as soon as I can.

Mr Don Spring Hill

Mr Don is near where I work. I was pretty thrilled when another Japanese place opened in Spring Hill.


Mr Don does good donburi bowls. Tonkatsu, tempura or gyudon. The cost of the average bowl is $8.50 and the serves are of a good size, making it good value for money. I quite like their curry don and the tempura don and/or udon. Tempura takes a little longer, so if you are in a rush, order the curry, gyudon or the many katsu dishes.


Their sushi rolls are a good quick lunch but get in quick because they go quickly.


The staff is lovely and very polite.


Good value for money. Great tasting and quick for those in a hurry

Wagaya Japanese food

This place is AMAZING. I love the ordering system of the ipad at the end of the table. WARNING! You may order more than you can eat.

The tuna sashimi was melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

The grilled eel, which I have never liked anywhere else I have tried it, will make me try it other places. The sauce on the eel is gorgeous and the eel melts in your mouth.

The rolls could do with less mayo, but that might be my dislike of Japanese mayo.

The gyoza is perfect, soft and well pan-fried with awesome flavour.

They seem to love grapfruit juice in their cocktails. I was somewhat disappointed that the cocktail menu was not clearer as to what was in each drink.

The green tea cheesecake is disgusting. DO NOT ORDER IT. It's as if someone just smashed dried green tea into a day-old cheesecake and re-formed it. AVOID!!

Despite a weird cocktail and a bad taste of someone's dessert, I would highly highly recommend Wagaya to anyone who loves Japanese food.

Haveli Indian food

Have been to Haveli twice now. Loved it each time we were there. The curries are well worth the drive from Brisbane to Vic Point.

The onion and spinach pakoras are my fave starters. Their tandoori chicken is beautifully tender and very flavourful. The tugh tikka is amazing. Would highly recommend it. The banquet for 2 feeds at least 3 people, so be VERY hungry when you order.

The curries are really rich in flavour and you can really taste the love and care that they put into making them. The chicken sabji had a great rich flavour with just the right touch of cilantro to make it extra special. The goat curry is a really rich, flavourful serve as well and the meat is exceptionally tender. The mango lamb was delicious with a nice sweet sauce.

The decor of the restaurant is entertaining as well, with private booths if you want a little romantic dinner.

My only concern is the wait staff. They seem less than attentive and their ability to bring out all the necessary items at the right time is less than wonderful. Who eats papadams without the sauces?

Arriba Grill

I was so happy when a new place to eat opened in Lutwyche. So. Very. Happy.

Arriba Grill did not disappoint.

Our first trip, we ordered the bowls. Mistake on our part. While they were good, you need the burrito to get the best taste, in my humble opinion. Don't get me wrong, the bowl were fine but after having tried a burrito, the bowls pale in comparison.

Love the ordering method. Fill out a form, tell them what you want and in 2-4 mins, you have dinner/lunch.

Fresh ingredients, good tasting, reasonable prices.
Please do not ever leave Lutwyche. PLEASE!
