    The food was phenomenal. From the attention to detail in presentation to the quality, we were all saying we want to come back to try the other dishes. The server was very kind and efficient. The ambiance was. Modern with a touch of traditional Japanese decor. The layout of the established was a neat concept. As you go up the stairs, there are breakaway rooms that accommodate a small number of tables. A lively, yet intimate experience. This was so close to a 5 star rating. Unfortunately, the noise level was a bit disruptive with the karaoke on the 4th floor, and the cheesecake tasted a bit freezer burned. No matter though, the rest was that good we will be back.

    Fantastic spot. I’ve eaten here several times, and the food is tasty and fresh. Last night I finished work late and they sat and fed me at 10pm with brilliant service - in a city where restaurants close far too early it’s fantastic to have a place which accommodates a late dinner with a smile. I intend to keep coming back!

    The food at Maneki was amazing. I came for dinner because I heard about The Godzilla Roll and it did not disappoint. The sides were delicious also and everything felt very fresh. The service was impeccable and the staff were very helpful. I will definitely be back soon
