I like going to Kintaro for quick and simple Japanese dinner. A small and cosy little restaurant situated just off the main street in Neutral Bay. The items on the menu aren't too fancy but are simple authentic Japanese cuisine. I ordered the sashimi deluxe and a chicken teriyaki with rice. The sashimi were very fresh and the chicken dish was delicious. Prices are very reasonable. The place can get abit noisy during peak hours and it would be good to make a reservation, as there is not much waiting area for you to stand and waiting around for the next available table.

Approximate cost: $16

The food is lovely, service however goes up and down, alot of the time they are understaffed. Asides from that, the fish is very fresh and although I am not a fan of Japanese cooked food, it is quite good here also. Definitely one of the better Japanese restaurants in Neutral Bay.

The food is excellent, and good value for Lower North Shore. Service is always top notch, very friendly and helpful. The decor is the only thing not 100%. It could do better with a more sophisticated look, but it more than makes up for it in food and service.
