Renkon Japanese Eat In & Takeaway

staff provided good service. like their hot toasted rice green tea and i always had the teriyaki tofu udon, which is superb.

Renkon in central Auckland does great food, quickly. It's fairly priced and its donburi bowls are a much better choice than the plethora of cheap-and-nasty fast food restaurants in the immediate area. It's pretty much just a tiny little whole-in-the-wall but there are some seats out in the alleyway. If you're lucky, there'll be some live music at the bar next door so you can enjoy that while you chow down on Japanese food.

This is my favorite sushi place . Wonderful dish plating, tasty and fresh meal, combine with modern and traditional Japanese style fusion. I will definitely visit this place again!!

Dined in and ordered the Miso Katsu Salmon and Renkon Chips to share. The Miso Katsu Salmon was delicious, perfectly crunchy on the outside and the salmon nice and moist and flaky, a generous dollop of japanese mayo (always a plus!) served along side a bed of rice and salad. A good distribution of sauce and flavour throughout the dish... some places fail at this, not enough mayo, too little sauce, too much rice etc, but Renkon gets it right.

Renkon chips were lightly battered and slightly crispy served in a light sauce.

Service, friendly and fast. Complimentary help yourself tea too, a great experience, will be back to try something else.

Good coffee, and service. The dark wood paneling is nice, but the seating is a little cramped.
