Kaizen BBQ, North Ryde

Restaurants, Korean, BYO, Licensed, Serves Breakfast

Overall 5.3  14

7.3 Recommended

Food  8      Ambience  7      Service  6      Value  8     


All you can eat specials for dinner are $32.90 korean BBQ style. You order from the menu of bbq meats, and you also get side dishes like kimchi, rice, potato salad, miso soup etc. The meats include pork belly, chicken thigh fillet, eye fillet steak, scotch fillet, marinated rib, wagyu rib meat, wagyu rib finger, wagyu beef skirt and wagyu chuck roll.

A massive meat-fest, and very delicious tender meats. Go for the all you can eat if you love your meat, and you can't go wrong. There is no time limits for eating so it's good for big groups and meeting up with friends!

One down point, however, is that you are only allowed to order a certain amount of meats at each time which is pretty reasonable, and the waiters/waitresses have limited english. However, they are very polite and the ambience of the place is nice, as it does not get as stuffy as most Japanese and Korean BBQ's.

Great value place for dinner if you go for the All you can eat Special!

Excellent, succulent meats. It's 35 dollars a person for all you can eat. They bring out skewers and plates of meats (including chicken, eye fillet, lamb, scotch fillet, sirloin, chorizo sausages, pork belly), as well as cheese bread, caramelised pineapple. Side dishes such as potato salad, rice, tomato salsa accompany these meats as side dishes.

However, the main focus of the food has to be the meats. They are so tender, juicy and well-flavoured. The marinades and salts are used to perfection and it really shows on the meats here, absolute heaven!

The ambience is almost like a food hall, as you are cramped on long tables and served foods from skewers and plates but it just adds to the ambience of great meat and sangria! Love this place and would highly recommend it!

Best ramen noodles in Sydney! I've been to menya, rahmen genki, ramen kan, etc. But this is definitely the best tonkatsu ramen, so full of flavour and the noodles have a real bounce to them. I'd also highly recommend the pork rice balls, so simple yet so delicious.

The staff are also very friendly, but it gets very busy here so you will need to wait outside sometimes as the restaurant itself is quite small and cramped. Well worth the trip and wait though, awesome noodles!

Way better than Makoto! Makoto used to be my favourite sushi train in Sydney, but this place is actually better than Makoto by heaps!

They have a great deal for lunch with $3 for all sushi (even the ones not on conveyor!). Fresh sushi, large range, good and fast service! I don't even go to any other sushi trains because this place is much better value! Standouts for me are grilled engawa, grilled scallops, and the scampi!

Best crispy chicken n dried noodle in cabramatta! Well, prob best in Sydney too!
If you look at all the other tables, every single table has crispy chicken. Get the crispy chicken and you can't wrong. About 10 bucks for crispy chicken and noodles.

Great food, love to come here for breakfast.

But the service of some of the waitresses is terrible. Some are friendly, but a few waitresses are really rude. Came here for breakfast one day, and one of the sandwiches had a hair in it as soon as she put it down. We told her straight away and she replied "that actually looks like a black hair", hence saying it was our hair that fell into the sandwich somehow!

We were shocked by this, but she almost seemed hesitant in replacing it. Instead she reiterated that it was a black hair. She finally agreed to replace it grudgingly, and refused to serve us after that. In addition, the replacement seemed cold and almost seemed like it was just left out in the kitchen and given to us 5 minutes later to make it seem like it was freshly cooked!

Not happy at all. Terrible service by the waitress.

The Laksa is amazing..!! Has to be top 3 in Sydney that I have had. The hainanese chicken rice is also delicious, and the prices of the dishes are great!!

I had been told about this place many times, but only just tried it recently.. and now it is one of my favourite places for food. The ambience and service? why worry about things like that when you can get such excellent food at such great prices!! The laksa was only 7 or 8 dollars, and the chicken rice less than 8!

Will definitely be back to try har mee and other types of laksa! Always crowded, and very fast service.. so bring your appetite and be ready to eat!!

Two thumbs up!!

Excellent place, looks great.. excellent service( the waitresses are very efficient, friendly and helpful). The food is also great if you really need to satisfy your hunger, then eat the Lowenschnitzel. Huge schnitzel, pretty hard to finish it by yourself. The biers are also great and they have an offer of free non alcoholic bier for designated drivers in groups of 5 or more. Excellent place. Highly recommend it! Around 22-32 for a Main.

Used to go here all the time. They had good value, great tasting pizzas that were always had plenty of toppings. They switched ownership and workers, and the quality of the pizzas have gone down, the prices have gone up, and the service is no longer as good as before. Still a great place for pizza, as they have a size that is bigger than 'Family' called 'Big Ben'. Not as great as before though. Rather other alternatives.

The pizzas are excellent here, I bought pizzas here for my brother's birthday because of the reviews from this site. The gourmet pizza here is delicious! The friendly owner and the workers there also make it a nice place to visit.

It's not the best place to look at, but it's very cosy and is great for take-away. The gourmet pizza are also reasonably priced. Family sized traditional pizzas, which are huge, are just $17. Will definitely be back to try the gourmet pizzas, highly recommend this place! It is the best value place of the gourmet pizza places in my area. I enjoy it more than the North Rocks, Carlingford and Castle Hill ones.
