Pinocchio Sushi

Extremely lovely Japanese and Korean restaurant on Anzac parade that is good for lovely time with friends

The food was lovely with the average price per dish ranging from 14 ~ 25. We bought rice and 3 share dishes to eat between the 4 of us totalling the order to 70 which is around 17pp

The sushi rolls were lovely, and jam-packed full of flavour. I could definitely see myself ordering them again.

The Korean snow cheese chicken however was a little lacking in flavour compared to other K-chicken places and there appeared to be flavorless coconut? Looking flakes on top of ours which was weird.

The service was extremely lovely with dishes coming consecutively straight after we had finished each meal. The waiter was extremely welcoming and was good at explaining what was on the menu.

Overall this is a great restaurant that you should come to with friends.

I love this gorgeous little spot - we ordered some tasty snacks. Plus bibimbap and soon tofu with kimchi and both were excellent. Lovely service and nice quaint atmosphere. Will be coming back!

Great experience all round from the food, service, and even the tea.

Portions are incredibly generous and while I still wouldn’t say it’s necessarily good value, you certainly get more than what you pay for at other Japanese restaurants.

Both Japanese and Korean options are very good. Picture below are the Pinocchio Set, Set 1 and the green tea (that’s right, real loose leaf rice tea for $3, and a big pot at that!)

Very happy and will be coming back

Came here on a whim but we were so impressed it literally saved our bad day. The waiter was one of the best I’ve encountered all year to be honest - I’m not saying that all other places are bad it’s just this one goes above and beyond 😊 considering that this is just a casual Korean Japanese restaurant.

Their menu includes everything you would be looking for at a Korean Japanese restaurant - sushi 🍣, noodles 🍜 and rice 🍚 Usually for me if the service impresses me it automatically bumps up the satisfaction of food too 😂😂

5-Jan-2017, Fri 1.30pm. There were a few empty tables so we easily found a table. The menu is quite diverse, not just sushi. The prices were decent, the staff was friendly. I found the soup to be a bit too sweet but perhaps that's how it's supposed to taste. The wasabi was relatively mild. My order was #5, chicken kaarage, and about 14$. It included 5 pieces of sushi, a bowl of rice a small platter of chicken some strips of ginger and a soup, see photos. I don't see any reason why you didn't give this restaurant a go. The food was ready in about 15min. They have some interesting ornaments.

Absolutely delicious Korean-Japanese food. Everything tastes super fresh and homemade, from the sushi to the soups. Definitely recommend trying - this has become one of our favourites in the area!

Great food, reasonable prices and really efficient and friendly staff. Had a sushi and sashimi combo with chicken teriyaki and tempura. The tempura was light and crispy, teriyaki was really good and not too sweet, sushi and sashimi were both tasty and fresh. The place is homely and and great for a casual meal with friend.

Great food and service run by Korean husband and wife. We often have lunch here with lots of options. Highly recommend sushi and sashimi, bibimbap in hot stone bowl, and all the set menus are great too.

I cannot express how much I love this restaurant!! Such delicious, homely food cooked with love. Good quality and such great value!
Pinocchio Sushi is an institution. My partner ate here often as a uni student 15 years ago and it’s still the same :’) would recommend the bibimbap!

This place serves the best tuna sushi ever. Once you eat it you will never want to eat any other again. The staff are so friendly and the meals are amazing.

Excellent place with slightly cheaper than average dishes. Very happy to have eaten there several times and enjoy the food. Set menu dishes seem to be the best choice I think... Yummy!

This is my favourite restaurant in Kingsford, there is always such great ambience and music. The food is incredible and even more so the people behind the food are what makes this place so special.

So much love and respect for this place

You haven’t lived until you have had their Bibimbap!!

Always great, authentic Japanese food, great service at great prices. I've been a patron of this place for many years and never been disappointed. I highly recommend Pinocchio Sushi.

Look no further! These guys time and time again have kept providing the tastiest Japanese and Korean food Sydney has to offer! We are privileged to be so close to such a fantastic, homely, wholesome, great quality restaurant.

Amazing food 😋 home cooking quality with a very generous portion. A good value for money. Highly recommended!

I absolutely love this place. This place is an institution, my partner and I have been going here for 15 years and the food is amazing. Highly recommended the bibimbap

I go to Pinocchio all the time. Eat in or take away their food is always delicious and well priced. The dishes are good sizes and the service is always polite. It's a hidden gem!

Excellent bento box, good value for money

I went to see how it was.
The food was pretty decent and tasty and the service was alright.

I didn't experience any displeasure or discomfort, so I'd give it a high rating for now.
