Had a great meal at Izumi Bandra! The scallops, beef skewers and crispy chicken gyozas were delicious. The Patian ramen and beef rice were rich, flavourful and filling. Finished with a warm, sweet taiyaki — the perfect ending! Definitely worth trying.

Great place for authentic Jap food. We had the sushi, robatta grilled chicken, grilled portobello & king oyster mushroom (amazing flavors!) and the veg ramen on server's recommendation. The only dish which was absolutely not worth it was the brocolli dish which had like 3 shreds of brocolli and priced for 800. Decent cocktails.

The food was okay, it did not stand up to the hype. Many better options available.

We reached the restaurant at 7:15p on a Thursday wanting to celebrate an impromptu event. The restaurant was totally empty but the lady at the entry was the rudest woman on earth. There was not even a single person inside the restaurant. And she couldn’t offer us a table citing that we didn’t have a reservation . We asked if it was fully sold out and she said no. The lady was terrible and if the restaurant is reservations only then it would be great if it is mentioned here like that.

We called to reserve a table 5 days ago. We were told we will get a link to pay the advance. We are still waiting on the link. After that they have stopped, taking our calls. Horrible experience.
