Bar Wa Izakaya

Amazing food, generous and thoughtful staff, great vibe. Love, love, love. The blue fin tuna belly sashimi, the chashu pork jowl, and okonomiyaki are next level. The sake tasting flight is also an excellent idea.

Had I work function here. We all loved it. Great food. Great atmosphere. Great service. I've since taken my wife and kids back. It quickly became a family favorite

I really like the food, especially the friend rice dish with mayo, but often it's not on the menu! It's the first thing I look for as soon as I have the menu in my hot little hands. The gyozas are the best I've ever had and the Scottsdale braised pork, heaven. The only complaint I have is that it can take almost 10 minutes to get a drink. I am not quite sure why it can take so long to pour a glass of wine but I m going to try to sit closer to the bar next time!

Lovely food, good atmosphere. The service staff could have been a little friendlier, kind of a I'm too hip to serve you vibe from our waitress. May have been a bad afternoon for her, if service was good would have been a five star. I highly recommend the pork jowl and the three flavour oyster. Plus 4-6 half price oyster happy hour was great.

Highly recommended if you're a remote fan of Japanese, especially Ramen. Had to be the best Ramen we've had, together with delicious smaller share plates. Cool ambience & super friendly staff made the experience even better!

Just wow! The tuna sashimi and the pork jowl were mind blowing! Highly recommend!

Friendly staff and fresh food. Staff was helpful and knowledgeable about their food and drinks menu. Always friendly services. Seafood was great and fresh. Nothing to fault about. Will absolutely return when we get a chance to.

The kitchen reliably produces delicious fare. We live interstate and make it a point to come here whenever we’re in Hobart.

Awesome Raman and so many drinking options.

I prebooked a reservation before landing in Hobart based on popularity and reviews from Google. Upon arrival we we're immediately seated and the vibe was lively for a work night. Drinks were great. Dinner - even better. Thanks to our waiter for making us feel welcome. (Forgot his name, he had a manbun and recently moved back from Sydney)
