Shige Restaurant - East Perth

Always a great quality of fresh seafood when we come here. Highly reccomended !!

He 's back!!!!!! After a bit of a hiatus where he went back to Japan, Shige is back and the cuisine is as good as ever. You know it 's going to be good when Tetsuya wants traditional Japanese food he heads over to have a bit of Shige-San 's culinary magic. He 's one of the best sashimi chefs around, up there with the guys from Sushi E in Sydney. Shige goes to the trouble of always getting the whole fish so that he can prepare it properly. I know a lot a 'Japanese ' restaurants, especially those run by non-Japanese, which buy their sashimi pre-filleted...it 's not the same. So when you come, not 'if ', in my opinion, make sure you order some sashimi or sushi so that you create a benchmark for all your Japanese culinary moments in the future. Other great dishes: chawan mushi (savoury egg custard), made properly...none of that instant stuff, the soft shell crab is a must, as is the agedashi-dofu. Plus, his tempura is the way it should be, light, thin, crispy batter. The new decor is pleasant and now that he 's moved from South Perth to just opposite the Hyatt Hotel, it 's convenient for lunch, plus there 's heaps of parking. Honestly, I can 't recommend it any higher.

Lovely lady at the counter gave suggestions and what to pick as I was clueless bad their daily specials in seafood with rice. was excellent and good meal on my first night in Perth after a long day with some sparkling wine in my hotel room as I took a take away

Very authentic Japanese food. Waiting time is reasonable. Had the catch of the day and was yummy. The deep fried miso egg plants and tofu were well cooked and delicious. Would come here again for sure.<br/ <br/

Thoroughly enjoyed the food snd service at this delightful restaurant. The sashimi was perfect as fresh as could be! Pork cutlet was soft and soooo delicious. Beef and reef was also great. Highly recommended this restaurant. It's not a cheap eat but well worth the money spent!
