β β β β β One of my favorite spots in the CBD. Food is always fresh, hot and delicious. They also have amazing lunch deals too for around $13, super affordable which is amazing especially in this current climate. If you're going in peak times it may be worth ringing and booking a table as we didn't once before and couldn't get a table.

β β β β β This is one of my most visited places in the CBD for casual Japanese food. Over the years my top three meals to order have been :
- Japanese style steak Don
- Karaage Don
- Karaage Udon
I also get their Chazuke with marinated octopus or plum occasionally, which is great to go with some salmon shashimi.

β β β β β This has quickly become my favourite Japanese place in Auckland. Itβs a bit hard to find but we were quickly seated by attentive staff and served delicious green tea. The food is excellent and I donβt think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. Weβve enjoyed sashimi, sushi rolls, karaage chicken don, kakiage tempura udon, and chicken Katsu. The udon broths are my favourite, as well as the miso soup. Highly recommend and excellent value.

β β β β β Came to The Don various of times all the way since 2019 and this has been my favorite restaurant in my entire life. The food was really cheap but with superb taste. The waiter and manager was really nice, kind and helpful. I have made a special connection with The Don as if it was a part of me. Everyone was easy to talk with especially the waitress. Overall its the best restaurant out there with excellence environment making me feel like at home.

β β β β β Reasonably priced, typical Izakaya setup, can get quite busy, service a little slow.
Foods are generous in size, taste good, good selection of sakes, which I donβt see much around here.

β β β β β Came to the Don to have some Don but I Don(t) recommend the Steak Don, steak was rubbery and very little sauce/flavour for rice (the juice?? ??)
Spicy chicken Katsu Don was good not really spicy and didn't come with a sauce so just katsu and rice.
Katsu curry was aite
Can't hate Salmon Avo rolls so was banger
All foods came out so pretty.

β β β β β A cheap-eat Japanese restaurant tucked away on High St. Staff was not very welcoming at the start but the rest of the service was fine.
The pork katsu was my favourite out of the 3 donburi. Teriyaki salmon was alright too but was a bit bland. Karaage chicken was a disappointment, chicken was not crispy at all and the whole donburi was tasteless.
The prawn sushi was OK. Overall average food.
An upside is the cheap price and the big menu with lots of options to choose from.
The interior is quite nice as well, gives a legit Japanese restaurant vibe.

β β β β β First time visiting here. Price is very reasonable. Good potion size. Both the dishes I had (cheese omelette and the pork katsu) was really good. My friend ordered a hot pot which is quite interesting. It was bit too sweet for my taste though. However, someone else may find it appealing. The restaurant gives a good japanese vibe. I wouldn't say the staff is that friendly though. They messed up our reservation and we had to wait in the cold for 15 mins. However, I would go here again just because I like the food.
