Fantastic experience here at Kazan. I came here a few years ago for my brother’s buck’s and had the private room which was beautifully laid out with no noise from the public area and I recently came back with wife for her to experience. Like last time, the wait staff were very polite and provided exceptional service. They answered all our questions about the meals with enthusiasm and they really seemed to care about working there. The food was reasonably priced considering the quality of the food and hospitality. We got the tasting menu and the 3 way oysters (which we found to be the highlight). Their sesame seaweed seasoned edamame is probably the best I’ve tried. Will definitely be coming back.

This place ticked all the box for us. Staff were very friendly. Restaurant was beautiful and clean. Food was absolutely amazing. We had the set menu and by the end of it we were very full. Place is halal which is an extra bonus for us. A place I will definitely come back to.

My wife and I were walking past Martin Place and came across this hidden gem of a restaurant. Not knowing what to expect but looking at the beautiful setting and environment, we decided to give it a go.

Once we came in, the staff and manager greeted us warmly and told us (luckily) that they had one table left at the time!

We checked out the menu and everything looked great! So we decided to go with the Tasting Menu which was very reasonably priced for the quantity and quality of items!

My wife is allergic to a number of ingredients and the manager was very accomodating with changes to the menu.

From the first dish to the last dish (currently waiting for the dessert because was too eager to write the review) everything was fantastic.

My wife and I cleaned up every single drop of food on every single dish! And reluctantly didn’t lick the dishes clean as to not embarrass ourselves!

The service was absolutely fantastic as well! Every single wait staff was extremely friendly and polite. Even taking note that today was a little pre-valentines date and giving us a Valentine’s Day dessert (literally just received)!

Must give props to every single person involved in running this venue from the  management, waiters/waitresses, bartenders and to the incredible chefs involved behind the scenes!

I cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

Thankyou Kazan Japanese Dining! ❤️

Food was amazing 👏  the prawn roll and tacos  were a stand out as was the pavlova for dessert. We had the fish which was OK and my husband raved about the sashimi. Fantastic place, not pretentious just great food and a lovely ambiance.
