![]() Pity about the sauce, which was quite heavy handed. It’s easy to overcook this little bird, but the meat was really moist and sweet. The last course was quail which was probably the pick of the bunch. Served in a KFC style cardboard take away pack, this reminded me of the chicken ribs you get in Chinese restaurants, but a little saltier and not quite as succulent. Not bad - nicely presented, but a little bland for my taste. This arrived very quickly and consisted of four round fritters served on a black rectangular dish sprinkled with popcorn and some dollops of spicy corn purée. My work friend had recommended the Battered Corn so I started with a small serve of that. It was a cold and wet - perfect weather for a big flask of warm Edoichi sake! Unfortunately at $ 34 not great value. Fully booked sorry, but they could still squeeze me in at the bar, which was fine for me. 30 thinking if I got there early enough I wouldn’t have to book a table. I arrived just as they were opening the door at 5. I’d been meaning to get to Mr Miyagi for awhile now, and a recommendation from a friend at work prompted me to head down there for dinner this Friday. #Mr miyagi japanese grill full#Starting from my most favorite: Nori Taco - with grilled salmon belly and mayo $ 12 Small Nigiri and Sashimi Combo $ 24 (very fresh tasting sashimi) BBQ Pork Ribs $ 14 (really smokey and crunchy) Hickory Smoked Quail $ 18 (not my favorite but the other half gobbled it up) After my experience, I read the reviews and must say I think they have improved as our server was at first a bit short with us however she became more relaxed throughout the night and we found out that it was actually her 2 nd shift and her 1 st time having a full section to herself! I would go back again and next time I want to try to Fried Chicken since I had food envy about it as the other tables munched no box-fulls of them. The menu is categorized for you and almost sounds like a story - either dirty or like an action film. Pleasantly surprised! Walking along Chapel st, this place caught my eye with it’s dim interior and smell of juicy food. The decoration is fantastic and very creative, I sat by the bar in front of Godzilla with Astro Boy hanging off the drinks rack. #Mr miyagi japanese grill movie#It’s not everyday you get to have dinner with movie starts and robot heros. I don’t want to shout in order to communicate with the person opposite me at the table and I certainty don’t want to feel pripped off as I leave a venue, sadly I had to yell to be heard and I feel ripped off. It was okay but I only managed 2 mouthfuls of the sugar overload. A plate of pumpkin cake, ice cream and frozen yoghurt. No coming back after a KFC rip off is served up like its the newest thing to hit the plate and then dessert. Sadly we had to send that back as it was dripping in oil and by this stage the night was over for me. Then we had a box of friend chicken thrown at us. The 4 th was beef something with beetroot. Nothing special there, oh wait they had sprinkled some tea over them - wow. Probably my favorite of the night but really? The fish did all the work and the chef just sliced it so I’m not awarding any points for that. The fish taco was okay, but all I could taste was nori. Sorry chef, nothing that made it to my mouth excited me in the slightest. I understand a «tasting» menu is never about the quantity but it’s a show case of the chefs best dishes and flavors. We received 1 x taco 2 pieces of raw fish, some fried chicken, 3 pcs of beef between the two of us and a desert. The stand in manager made a point of coming to our table once just to let us know that he knew we were the ones who we not impressed on our first visit We ordered the «feed me» menu for $ 55 each. Firstly we were seated at a bar height table again a a wall behind the cashier. Part of the «sweetener» was the offer of a complimentary bottle of wine, well that never happened. We accepted the offer from management in order to rectify the «wrong» opinion we have of this place. Seriously, we were invited back to experience Mr Myagi after our first experience here was less than enjoyable. ![]()
