yummy and wonderful Japanese food in Langakawi, simply the BEST! Staff recommended promotion which was excellent. They r so friendly, and you can get a lot of information about langkawi from them. The foods are superb,tasted fresh from the sea... pricey(so, beware of your wallet) but it worth the try. Lastly, the Japanese house looks awesome, it make you feel... More

Seriously great Japanese food with good service and a very nice selection of sake. Staff recommended promotion which was excellent. Bill in the end for high quality food and rare sake only 400RM, really decent. Impressed sure to return..... Only minor improvement point could be that the decor and interior feels a little bit old. Time to update perhaps?

After reading rave reviews on trip advisor, we were excited to try this restaurant as Japanese cuisine is the family's favorite. What a disappointment! Overpriced, unremarkable cuisine with lackluster service. There is nothing redeeming about this restaurant - feel free to skip as there are much more authentic, interesting and enjoyable restaurants on the island!

Found this restaurant while on my way to Awana hotel. Rated as Malaysia's best restaurant, so out of curiosity, we give it a try. Everything is so fresh! The sashimi and the special board menu are just a way too perfect! Even the salmon with steam rice (though its kinda plain) but the sweetness of the salmon make the meals... More

We ordered grilled fish, udon soup and sushis. Waiter suggested to take sushiset, which costs 100 MYR. Later, when we received invoice, we saw that all the sushis where seperatly. 6 pieces about 19 MYR. Total of 150 MYR, plus fish and soup. Total 309 MYR. Extremely expensive, considering that WAKABE offers exactly the same food at half price! Be... More

Summary: Our most expensive meal at Langkawi turned out to be the worst. Tip: Order some less pricey, standard Japanese fare and try it out first. If you are convinced that they are the real thing, never too late to burn that hole in your pocket. We ordered items from the chef's specialties menu (written on a whiteboard), naturally thinking...

We had dinner there three times. It was one of our the best experiences so far in a japanese restaurant. Staff was always very attentive. Our highlight was by far the Kobe Beef. We have never eaten such a delicious meat in our life! We also recommend the handmade ice as dessert.
