Overview of Watermoon

Enlightenment is like the moon reflected on the water
The moon does not get wet, nor is the water broken
Dogen, Zen Buddhist Master


For the moon to be reflected flawlessly on a mountain lake, the water must be perfectly clear.
And only the most pristine water will result in excellent sake.
In Japan, both water and moon symbolize purity and the simplicity of life.
We trust our sake will bring you closer to enlightenment.

    Went here for dinner with my partner after reading these reviews. Good quality food and friendly service, but really uncomfortable chair on the bench. The size didn’t fit the bench and table. Or rather sit on the bench. I couldn’t stay longer than 30 minutes. No one mentioned about it on the reviews, agree with me?

    This is an authentic Japanese restaurant with fabulous food and an unique austere but warm ambience. The tempura is as good as you get in Sydney, the sashimi and sushi selection mouth watering. Japanese beer on tap and a great selection of sake. Try this place.

    Decided to go to Watermoon after reading good reviews, they were not wrong at all! Had vegeterian and tuna-avocado rolls. Very tasty, fresh and good value. The rice was soft and sweet, delightful! The staff were very friendly and quick. A great place to go back to visit.

    After the shocking experience at Wasabi Bistro my family and friends headed to the Water Moon. The ambience, service, food was just wonderful, sashimi was fresh, the rice in the sushi rolls was soft not hard, the special before 7pm dinner sets is value for money stating from $15.. the staff was friendly and tables and floor clean as.. I am pinching myself why did I not choose Watermoon in the first place! Will definitely go back!

    Went here tonight before a show. 6 of us paid about $28 ea for a very average meal. Lovely restaurant and location but typical Potts Point, not much value for money. I'd rather go to Pyrmont and have Sushi Samurai.

    This place is the worst café on Victoria Street. My mom makes better coffee. I recommend you to stay home and have breakfast.

    We really enjoyed the food and ordered some tapas-like share plates. Great ambience and good for couples or larger groups.

    What a great little place! The food is tasty and the value for money excellent (in particular for Potts Point). This is a great place to take a large group for a celebration as the food is affordable for most and easy to share.

    I visited here a while ago, I think couple of month ago. Food we ordered ranged from great to okay. Ordered camembert cheese tempura, which was served with pink salt, (Which I didn't like - too salty, pink salt flakes would be a better option) and Salmon carparccio, which was simple and pleased my palate.

    Service was reasonable I guess, since Watermoon is not classified as 'fine dining' although they rushed the drink order slightly bit too early and was unattentive after the drinks were served.
