About
Yayoi Westfield Sydney occupies a prime Level 6 position in one of Sydney's busiest shopping centres, drawing a consistent lunch and dinner crowd from CBD workers, tourists, and the local Japanese community. Like all Plenus-operated locations, the menu centres on the teishoku tray: a carefully composed set combining a main — often wagyu sukiyaki, pork tonkatsu, or grilled fish — with rice, miso soup, and side dishes. The wagyu sukiyaki set is a standout, drawing repeat visits from diners who appreciate its quality relative to the price. The 100-seat dining room provides rare breathing room for a city-centre Japanese restaurant.
