Musashi Noodle & Sushi Bar

Outside doesn’t look like much, area can be grubby. We usually like to go for a meal before we head cinema or grab some lunch if in the day time - really really good 😊 lovely delicious food 🍱 staff nice and welcoming. Prices really reasonable before 5pm they do great lunch deals which we didn’t know about the first time so would definitely opt for this the next time. The only fault —— I love mid back chairs 🪑 I find the ones in here so uncomfortable but maybe that’s the point so people eat and go 🤣 overall very nice will be back.

Visiting Dublin and decided sushi was a must, and we loved this place! Atmosphere was amazing and chill, the food was high quality. And service was fantastic and friendly! Prices were very reasonable and fair. Recommend the bodan sushi platter, rainbow roll and pork gyoza. Highly recommended and will come again!

In love with Musashi! Came twice while working in Dublin. The first evening I got an amazing fried tofu katsu curry that I loved! The tofu was so tender. The second night I got sushi that was also extremely good! Loved it looking forward to come back to Dublin to check more their menu!

There was a bit of a wait time, but it was worth it! Loved their food, we got tofu katsu curry and assorted sushi. I love that they have so many vegetarian options. We also got their moso soup which is simply comforting esp on a cold day

Was expecting better ramen after reading other reviews. I got the chicken ramen and overall it didn’t have much flavor and the chicken seemed a bit rubbery. Not as much broth and not much flavor. Maybe check out the sushi or something else and it could be better.

Excellent japanese restaurant for reasonable prices. The food is delicious and service very profesionální and kind.

I occasionally have dinner at Musashi. Their grilled beef teriyaki is a must-try! We ordered the beef well-done, and it was both delicious and tender. The Yaki Soba had a bit of a strong flavor, but I assume that’s how it’s meant to be made—it was still good. The servers are always excellent!

I would have given 5 stars except that the experience was ruined by the fact that they didn't warn us that we couldn't split the bill. The food is great although expensive, the venue cute although small. the ending ruined everything.

Delicious food. I ordered it to me so I don't know what the restaurant is like but the food is good.

Food: There's a great variety of fish and meats to choose from. The dishes are meant to be shared so I suggest ordering many dishes so you can sample lots of things. Service: I thought the service was welcoming and good. We didn't have a reservation and they gave us a nice booth by the window since we had our toddlers with us. I ordered a sake flight and one of the staff members explained each of the sake flavors to me and suggested which ones to drink first and last when I inquired. Ambiance: Chic and cute inside. It's a small place so feels festive and cozy in a good way. Great place to dine at for good authentic Japanese food if you're in Ireland.

if i could give minus star i would, i have never seen such a terrible costumer service in my life and i work in the industry, im not to write bad reviews but this experience was so appalling, they rather loose the costumer than to literally admit a mistake and change it, from someone that used to come very often being treated so poorly it was just very bad. Literally paid more and they wouldn't even give me the cheaper plate that i wanted, the server screaming at me. very bad. won't be coming back ever.

no complaints from this place, only wish they had a few more complex rolls to choose from. food came out super quick. they have gluten free soy sauce. miso soup was delicious, edamame was perfectly salted. fish tasted great and fresh. the meat plates were sizzling and were wonderful. food not too expensive either. kind servers.

Came here for a quick lunch with my boyfriend while we were in the area. The price is pretty high for food that is mediocre at best. The sushi rolls are heavily loaded with sauces to the point that you can't taste the fish or even the veggies. The rolls are also cut extremely big making it impossible to eat in one simple bite resulting in multiple bites and broken sushi pieces. The sashimi is also not the most fresh or buttery and were also sliced very thick. We were greeted and sat down right away but the food did take a while to get to us. Waiting for the check was also a hassle. We just ended up going up to the counter to pay. Service wasn't great but the waitress was very nice so I'll give a star for that. Another two stars were earned from the ambiance. Light music and beautiful decor. I loved the chairs and seat pads mixed with the beautiful vibrant colors. Overall I enjoyed my time for the vibes but would not come back for food or service.

We wanted to cap off a wonderful trip in Ireland. And we craved some good sushi. This place looked wonderful so we thought we would give it a try. I casually joked and wondered if they would serve fries on the side. Which is quite prevalent in Ireland. All joking aside, the atmosphere was very authentic. Food was delicious, no complaints. The only way to make the experience better would have been if I had an additional stomach. Everything was sooo good. Highly recommend their seaweed salad, but everything was quite good. I just wish this place was closer than a 12 hour plane ride. I would go again if I had the chance and highly recommend.

WE LOVE MUSASHI! This is definitely 100% my favorite dinner spot! Wether it's ordering in, take away or dine in: 10/10 Authentic Japanese food + great customer service with it! 10/10 extremely accommodating on order notes, will read and reply even! 10/10 freshest sushi around Thank you for the free sake for our 100th order on Deliveroo! 10/10 Authentic Japanese food + great customer service with it! 10/10 extremely accommodating on order notes, will read and reply sometimes! 10/10 freshest sushi around Thank you for the free sake for our 100th order on Deliveroo!

I stopped by here after seeing good reviews. I ordered from the lunch menu and it was very good. I would recommend this restaurant.

Very mediocre sushi and ramen, at best. I gave it a shot because of my AirBnB host's recommendation. (They also recommended some good steakhouses that I liked, including BOVINITY also on Capel street.) But this was a disappointment. Ramen was very bland; the chicken and shrimp in it were totally dry and flavourless. The pork was also very dry. Broth was just bland... really no redeeming features here. The maki rolls are just huge chunks of rice smothered in Mayo. It's not good Japanese food at all.

Musashi is the epitome of great Japanese food. From the friendly welcome to the clean decor, you feel at home in the surroundings. I'm a huge noodle fan and have eaten at many establishments over my life. Being slightly familiar with the Japanese subculture around ramen, I was warmly impressed with my Musashi Ramen bowl. I opted for 3 different kinds of meat to get a sampling: chicken, pork and shrimp. All were cooked perfectly. The broth was made of chicken and pork, which was simple and delicate. The noodles were cooked to have just the right texture. The presentation was beautiful, allowing you to visually enjoy before digging in. It seems evident that they take great pride and care with the food they serve. The ramen arrived pretty quickly after being ordered. The waitress was friendly and kept drinks topped off. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and a great value for the money. I look forward to coming back in the near future.

Decent sushi for cheap. The sashimi combo was very tasty, especially the salmon. The salmon avocado roll was also very good, but the spicy salmon was just a normal salmon roll with literally Sriracha sauce plopped on top, really odd. The service was incredibly fast, to the point where they picked up our plates and brought the check as soon as the last piece was lifted from the plate and we felt a bit rushed.

Wonderful food and very simple surroundings similar to Japan. Sushi was excellent, simple and quick service! Very nice

Been here 2 times and they were always super busy. First experience was not that great but on the second time visit, I were surprised by their improvement on service - staffs were really nice and sushi were so delicious. Need to book the place in advance as well!

Great food, great service!! Loved everything we had and vegan options were amazing. Waiters were very knowledgeable.

Came here for the ramen and was not disappointed! Quick and friendly service. The lunch special beef ramen was a generous portion with a hearty broth and a good size steak. Full of flavour! The menu is extensive and all the food I saw from other diners looked appetising!

I love this place. I simply love this place. The decor is perfect for its size, the capacity is perfect, it never feels crowded and the atmosphere is welcoming. Plus you can't argue with the BYOB rule either, very reasonable if you want to bring your own wine along. The food is fantastic, I've yet to find a nicer bowl of miso soup in Dublin or a all round better bento box in terms of value, presentation and price point. I typically get it with the chicken skewers and it costs just around €16 at lunch, with a drink of course. Go, just go. Even if you aren't impressed by the food, you'll be satisfied by how little it cost.

A MUST SKIP!!! If you have ever had real Japanese food in Japan you will be appalled by this place. We had ramen and a spicy tuna roll and the sauce in the tuna roll was unrecognizable and the ramen was tasteless. Yes I know I'm in Dublin but it was a cold day and ramen sounded good. Should have looked for potato soup.

Musashi is by far my favourite Japanese restaurant in Dublin at the moment. Their food is amazing and very well priced for such a high quality. I normally get the sea food cha han with a salmon and avocado norimaki. Usually comes to about €20. There are other Japanese places in Dublin where the same order would come to about €30. You can also bring your own wine but there is a corkage fee of €6. They do a lunch menu during the day which is even better value again. Musashi's sushi is where they really shine. Every thing I have had here as been absolutely fantastic. The freshest cuts of fish. The rice is always perfect; not too sticky and gooey, not too hard. The portions are always very generous too especially for the price. My only complaint about the place is that it gets a little too warm in the restaurant, but that's not that big an issue at all. If you are looking for a nice Japanese meal this is your place. Places such as Yamamori boast a bigger menu and other things like fancy cocktails, but Musashi's food is of similar or better quality at a much lower price.

I'm a big fan of Musashi. I've been there several times and i love it. Staff is very friendly and the sushi is sooo good. Definitely my favourite cheap sushi restaurant in town. I'll recommend it l.

I absolutely love Musashi! Seriously reasonably priced for Japanese food in Dublin. They have a good selection of sushi & hot food, including three vegetarian main dishes. I particularly love their Cha Han and Tofu Steak with teriyaki. The food is delicious, wholesome and the portions are very generous. I recently came here with a group of 8 & we were very well looked after! Staff are all lovely and welcoming. Also worth mentioning is that it's BYOW with a corkage fee of €6 per bottle. Desserts are super cheap ranging in price from 1 euro (yes, really!) to about 4. The 1 euro desserts are a single scoop of any ice cream or frozen yoghurt flavour you fancy. The perfect size after having one of their massive main portions!

Extremely NICE FISH ! Even the octopus was perfectly cooked and had perfect texture High quality sushi rice Fresh NORI dry and crisp Ice cream is Fresh and creamy Although No green Tea flavor or mochi Spending a few months in Ireland and will be back many times !

Went to Musashi for lunch and really enjoyed the experience. The staff are super friendly and kept asking if we needed anything but weren't too in your face. Lunch specials are only €8! So worth it!The Chicken Raman was delightful and the soup was incredibly tasty with a large portion of chicken. The Katsu Curry was also delicious however the curry sauce itself was a bit generic and weirdly reminded me of one you might get in a 3 in 1 and didn't blow me away too much which is the only reason I'm not giving Mushashi 5 stars. It came with pickled veg that was beautifully presented and tasted great! Also we brought a bottle of wine with us and it is only €6 for corkage so well worth it if you feel like brining a bottle along for a meal!

For me, the best Japanese restaurant in Dublin. Friendly staff and great value for money. My favourite dish is Gyoza (pork dumplings). They are delicious, I highly recommend them ;-). It is a small place, so book a table if you are planning to go at the weekend, specially in the evening. Another great thing is its BYOW ( €6 per bottle).

Tasty dishes. Coming here will not make you regret. If seating would be more comfortable, would surely return ASAP. But with being crouched a little bit while eating I'll look for other places that are more comfortable to sit at. It is more Japanese than European, which is good and bad. Anyway, definitely recommending this place. I will return here for some Miso Soup.

This is my favorite sushi place in Dublin, by far! They have really good sushi for very reasonable prices. The place has a cozy feel, small enough to be intimate but big enough to fit groups. I haven't tried their other foods, but their vegetable fried rice is great. I think they serve beer only, and everything else is BYOB. They have another branch in IFSC which is much bigger, and does collection/take away.

When I met Mark C. at the fried mars bar yelp event last week I asked him about Musashi and if he liked sushi and he said "I don't know much about sushi, but I know that I love it". This stuck in my mind because that is exactly how I feel about it! I know it's delicious and that I'm always craving it! I've eaten sushi in a few places in Dublin but I must say this place has a really different atmosphere to it. The interior is lovely, wooden chairs and tables, all with cushions for underneath and behind you. I like the dim lighting too, There's a really nice minimalist vibe to the place. The manager has always been very friendly, and the food is top notch. Good price on bento boxes. Complimentary tea on arrival to settle your tummy. The tap water is served with ice and a slice of lemon, I find this a really nice touch as so many places just give you water with no ice, let alone lemon, and as I generally can not be without water this made me happy! I've been twice so far, first I had egg on bed of noodles, absolutely divine, even without soy sauce, and I do like to add soy sauce! Second time I got salmon bento box served with miso soup which was less filling than the previous meal but more than enough to satisfy an appetite! I look forward to dining here again! Also don't forget to check in, you get 10% off your meal when you do this, but its on a single meal, not on any bento boxes. Free WiFi too :)

Even the name Musashi brings a smile to my face....... I eat here at least once if not twice a week. Where do I start with the praise??? Staff - super friendly and attentive. Bing is my homegirl, she always looks after me when I come here and will try and squeeze me in if they are booked out. Food - OMG.... Seriously, I had tried to eat sushi in other restaurants over the years and could barely keep down the seaweed. So I came to the conclusion that I did not like seaweed and only liked sashimi (plain raw fish). Then I tried a tuna and avocado roll in Musashi and have not looked back. I try to order differently each time. Noodles, sushi, fried rice dishes, miso soup, terriyaki, tempura, dumplings.... I have not tried anything I have not liked. Drink - They don't sell alcohol. This is madness I hear you say! Noooo, it's genius! Corkage of €4 on wine and no charge for bringing your own beers, ciders, spirits..... Off licence 2 doors down. It saves you a fortune and you can bring your favourites. A WINNING situation! Price - Everything is very reasonably priced. For example, I was here Friday just gone. Got 2 main courses and 2 starters and the bill came to little over €30 (€5 for some beers from the off licence).... I find with the likes of Yamamori and UkiYo that the sushi in particular is terribly over priced. Not in Musashi! Atmosphere/space - The restaurant is not huge, but a nice size. It just means it gets booked up pretty quickly at weekends. Great atmosphere, there's a buzz to the place. Music played in the background can vary but is usually some sort of pop music. Britney, Whitney, Mariah. The toilets have different music, usually country inspired or a bit of Celtic Mysticism- Taylor Swift, Dolly Parton, Enya..... Totally random but brilliant. I am delighted these guys are doing so well, they deserve the custom. Awesome food, staff, price and atmosphere. I would recommend booking a table any day of the week you decide to come, not just weekends as they can be very busy all of a sudden and you may be disappointed. (Before or after go for a €3.50 pint next door in Pantibar)

Came here for dinner and I'd have to, one of the best Japanese restaurants in Dublin. The sashimi was so fresh and succulent, and the sushi was perfect with just the right amount of rice; they didn't use a whole fistful of rice that you can't even swallow in one bit. Besides sushi and sashimi , they do the best Gyoza! Not burnt or too oily, and theres 4 varieties (prawn, chicken, pork or veggie). Tempura, noodles, hot mains like teriyaki fish, tofu, and sides like edamame and miso soup also feature on the menu. The interior is quite Japanese like in decoration which was nice, and the place gets packed on weekends for lunch and dinner so its always safe to have a reservation if going on a Friday or Saturday. The service was top notch! Staff were very polite and attentive, checked up on us regularly and were overall great! Overall no complaints! Will definitely come here again for some sushi!

I was introduced to this place through a yelp event and, as a result, I was very excited when making a return visit. Greeted by the friendly staff we were shown to a sturdy table and immediately treated to some green tea. The bottle of wine, which I had purchased in a nearby Spar, was given a cooler and I began to read the menu. I can still remember the pangs of hunger I felt as I read through that delicious list. I wanted it all! Anyway, after some discussion we ordered sushi as a starter, to be followed by chicken katsu curry and tuna stake for our mains. It was lovely, expertly prepared and fresh, most of our conversation was about when we were coming back. There is no alcohol for sale here but you can bring your own, Musashi charge €3 for corkage. The interior is cool, with a plain but cosy feel creating an excellent atmosphere for both dining and conversation. I found it to be great value and the staff were terrific. Just make sure your wine is of a high enough caliber to complement the excellent food - Ours wasn't :) If your in the area check out their lunch time specials. They look good!

I've had Musashi bookmarked for a long time and today I finally got to sample its delights & charm! I wanted to bring my mam somewhere for her birthday that would have good food and which would have equally good service and I thought this sounded like the perfect place. Firstly the atmosphere of the restaurant is warm & inviting. Being greeted with a smile then enhances the warmth. The appearance of the restaurant is japanese-esque and very cute. I particularly like the stools which have footrests and cushions & are extremely comfortable. We were showed to our table immediately and complimentary green tea for two was promptly brought to us while we examined the menu. Our waiter 'Joseph' came to assist us. I was hoping to sample one of their bento boxes but he advised me that they're only offered on weekdays. Minor setback as they still had a specials menu. We decided to order the Musashi Cha Han from that menu for €7.99 and the Salmon Teriyaki from the main menu for €14.99 I asked Joseph to recommend a starter and he recommended their House Special Tempura which consisted of a mixture of veg and fish in a light tempura batter along with a dipping sauce. We ordered two tap waters and they were served with lemon and also had some lemon squeezed into them. Nice touch. We weren't long waiting on the starter to arrive and it arrived in style! Served in a bamboo tray with a pretty garnish. The portion was very generous and well worth €8.50. The batter was so light and crispy it really was delicious. We sampled the following: prawn, squid, green pepper, sweet potato, baby sweetcorn, white fish, asparagus, Aubergine & courgette. My favourite was the squid, it was so tender & not at all chewy. Followed closely by the prawn and then the green pepper & sweet potato but they were all very tasty. This starter would be like a main for one person and is the perfect size to share. The mains came soon after. The presentation of the teriyaki was superb; from the plate it was served on to the creative garnishes. The salmon was fabulous, cooked to perfection & with a generous amount of teriyaki sauce. It was served with tasty veg (mostly bean sprouts, broccoli & peppers) as well as a bed of rice. I'd like it if they also offered the alternative of having it with noodles instead but that's just preference. The Musashi Cha Han was presented simply in comparison but the white shell shaped dish really compliments the colour of the dish & the yellow of the egg. Its obviously popular as we saw a lot of them being served. And rightly so! It was extremely tasty and a great price too! So the rumours are true- the food here is fantastic! I've heard people raving about the sushi yet I didn't try any today due to the cold weather and the desire for hot food! I've therefore made a promise to myself to come back soon and try the sushi. That's one promise that will be VERY easy to keep! The waiter Joseph was one of the most pleasant, attentive, helpful & genuinely lovely members of staff I've encountered in a long time. Bonus. Food, service and atmosphere all lived up to my expectations from reading the reviews. I would most definitely recommend Musashi. Might see you there!

I went to the yelp event here and this is what I had to say: I like surprises. And sushi. and SURPRISE, we got to MAKE sushi! I've wanted to try to make sushi for a long time, but it seems like you need to have a party to do it because I can only ever find the seaweed in massive amounts. If you can't tell from the first sentences, making the sushi was a lot of fun. Everything that I tried was really good--even the rice--I know, rice is easy to make, but they add something that makes you unable to stop eating it! Service was really good and on top of everything because whenever I ran out of tea they were there with more without me having to ask. The event was on a Monday. I went back Wednesday for lunch. That good. They have amazing lunch deals like a bento box for 8.99. Sounds pricey, but I got it to go and it came in 5 containers--one for the tempura, one for the rice, one for the sushi, one for the tofu, and one for the miso soup. It was the bag that never eneded when I kept pulling food out. The rice (as stated above) is amazing. They put something in it to make you not stop eating it. The tempura was kind of heavy, but I have never had it before and I guess that is what it is supposed to be like--I won't be having it as the last thing for a meal again, I'll start with it because it was sill great. The sushi pieces were massive, about the size of 4 even though there was only 2 and came with the cutest soy sauce squirt bottle that was in the shape of a fish. The tofu was amazing--soft on the inside and crispy on the outside with a sweet sauce that made it easy-ish to pick up the tofu because it was stickey! The miso soup was better than the first time I had it at the Yelp event! The service when I went was great again, and they gave me free tea while I was waiting for the food. The decor inside is really cute, and even though everything came from IKEA (I spend too much time looking at their stuff online), it does not feel cheap because everything goes together so well.

Came here for dinner. Sushi came out on a cute boat with smoking dry ice. Bobba tea was fresh and they use real dairy. Had the brown sugar latte boba and it was delicious. the resturaunt was small and comfy, with beautiful murals and paper lanterns. Waitstaff was extremely pleasent and everyone loved the sushi.

I had a fantastic meal here at Musashi! My mom and I came here for dinner at a Saturday night. We were told we only had an hour, as they had a reservation coming in, but their service was so fast that it was absolutely no problem! The menu has a huge variety of options - something for everyone! My mom got the chicken ramen special, which she really enjoyed (and she's not easy to please). We also got the pork gyoza appetizer, which was quite good, but a bit spicy. As my entree, I got the eel and avocado roll - it was fantastic! It tasted quite fresh, and the flavors were perfect. It was also the perfect amount of food. The nicest part, I swear our food came out within 10 minutes of ordering it. I couldn't believe it! So fast, but tasting very fresh. If you find yourself craving sushi or japanese food while you're in Dublin, I highly recommend coming here!

Reeeeeally good! The sushi is wonderfull, the fish is always so fresh and smooth. I personally love the Ebi tempura masago and the salmon nigiri. Those are always a good choice. Also the Salmon tepanyaki is very tasty and the perfect amount. Definitely one of my MUST in Dublin. The only thing is that it is not very big, so if you could, book a table so you won't have to wait ;)

One of the 2-3 best Japanese restaurants in Dublin. You can't go wrong with the Bento box here, just amazing, a work of art. Delicious, and a good load of food. Also, I think it's 1 euro cheaper than Yamamori's Bento box! (I honestly think Musashi's Bento Box is better). Pssst, spicy tuna rolls (8 pieces for 5,80 euros) is a great starter for sharing! PS. Just a little quibble, the place is really small. At lunch time is always packed and sometimes you feel too close to the other tables... also, where am I suppose to leave my jacket/coat/umbrella? No place but under the table!

I love parts of the meal and am a bit indifferent on other parts of them so the review will be broken down as follow: Service - Excellent, friendly with timing of "military precision". Tempura - Proper tempura batter (not panko) which gives it a light but crispy coating, best I have had in Dublin. Gyoza - Very good with lovely ponzu dipping sauce. Sushi - A bit of a let down but perhaps I've been spoilt by J2's fantastic sushi creations. Cha han - The fried rice was made with fresh lovely ingredients but it was not seasoned at all. We all had to add soy sauce to the dish. Value - Very reasonable... it came to about €22 per head, including a bottle of house white shared by 3. Definitely worth a visit but be sure to make a reservation!

The best Japanese restaurant in Dublin, probably in Ireland. As is typical for Japanese food, there are no overpowering flavours (the most intense thing is the Wasabi which is for the most part on the side as a condiment), but there is a lot of subtlety in the deliciousness. The sushi here is incredible, by far the best I have had in this country to date: especially great are the Unagi, Seafood Futomaki and Soft Shell Crab Tempura Futomaki. Their Gyoza / dumplings are amazing as well, with the Yasai / vegetarian being excellent. And on this point: the Yasai dishes such as Yasai Yaki Soba make this a place where vegetarians can get a great meal too. The quality is consistent here, never a disappointment. Service and decor is excellent, by far the classiest eatery on Capel Street. However, it is small and gets very busy: booking a table in advance is essential for dinner, and for weekend evenings it is advisable to book a day or two in advance.

Food meh but the service is steller. Employees ao nice and attentive even with a busy night.

Out of sheer boredom me and a friend decided to go for a lunch date, we got lost and stumbled upon this quaint little japanese place. The interior is beautifully wooden and gives off an authentic feel. I ordered the Musashi ramen and my hot date had the chef sushi. The ramen was what you would expect from a good ramen, it was packed with beef, chicken, shrimp and all that good stuff. But the real show stealer was the sushi; gorgeously presented on a wooden bridge and served with a nice little miso soup. As you might be able to tell by now it was a great experience overall.

What a good restaurant! Musashi is one of the latest additions to Dublin's evolving Japanese food scene and one worth checking out. The place itself is rather small with tables and chair close to each other, so it'll be an intimate experience. Or, put it as you like, you'll get to know your neighbor really well. When the restaurant is packed (and it is packed every evening) it will get very noisy but we're here for the food, right? What's on the menu is by far more authentic than I've seen in other places around the city. Ramen? Check. Katsu Curry? Check. Teppan Beef Teriyaki? Check. I had a Musashi Ramen which came with chicken, beef, prawns, tofu, egg, shiitake and vegetables in a miso-based soup (13.50 Euro). Fantastic in taste and addictive. Service was quick and attentive, no complaints. I sometimes go to one of the Asian supermarkets in the city and try to make that stuff myself, but most of the time I fail miserably. Glad that Musashi now comes to the rescue.

We love sushi and would judge a bad one, this place is a sushi gem! We ordered 3 sushi rolls (ebi tempura, salmon avocado & spicy tuna), ebi gyoza, edamame, musashi fried rice Nice welcome drink (traditional green tea), staff helped shaping our table nice and quick, our food came very quickly as well! And it was super delicious, recommend ebi gyoza and the first two sushi rolls the most! Service & Staff: Super! Food: Very Good Recommend: Yes Again?: Defo!

Went on a Sunday afternoon. Atmosphere was busy and friendly, a slightly hipster clientele which I always like. I had the vegetarian udon noodles and my sister had the salmon teriyaki. My dish was very nice if a little standard, a lot of sauce was on it but the tofu was nice and crispy. My sister was happy with her salmon but the salad that came with it was covered in wasabi sauce which wasn't mentioned in the menu and she's not a fan of wasabi in the slightest. Staff were friendly and attentive, would go back but I'm not in a rush.

Yeah, this is the best Japanese restaurant in Dublin. I've been to a few now and everything about here is just outright better. I've had sushi, miso ramen, tempura and a tried a few other things. There's nothing but quality here at a completely reasonable price. I don't think it necessarily qualifies as a truly Japanese restaurant but the atmosphere certainly helps you feel like you're back in Hokkaido, all that's missing is the いらっしゃいませ as you walk in. The servers are lovely and the atmosphere is super cosy. Do make sure you book a table though or you could be waiting upwards of 30 minutes.

I mean it's clean and nice, but not a place for those who want authentic Japanese food - it's Chinese style Japanese wannabe food. I would have to say. Without further ado, the service was great and quick. Restroom was clean. I would personally not come back here because food is disappointing for me as an Asian who crave for authentic Japanese food.

Had been wanting to come here for so long and in my excitement walked straight passed it all the way to the very other end of Capel street. When I finally got there I was seated promptly with the menu and had ordered within five minutes. At half one, the lunchtime rush seemed to have left everybody a bit frazzled and no one really seemed to know what was going on. Sure enough though, my bento box, green tea and miso soup all arrived in surprisingly good time, along with a huge smile. The bento box here is the best I've had in Dublin. Huge portions and all really good quality; at 8.99 it's a steal. Once two o'clock came, the suits cleared out and the atmosphere completely changed. Able to breathe, I took out the book which was kind enough to accompany me and enjoyed the rest of my lunch leisurely. Whoever was sorting out the music seemed a lot calmer too, now playing some relaxed bossa nova as opposed to the previous plethora of strange pop covers. Over all, the service here is amazing, albeit a bit disorganised, and the bento at least, is worth every cent.

I love musashi, I've been here so many times and every time I leave happy and satisfied. The staff are amazing, so lovely and friendly, and super efficient.. Never a long wait for anything, really the staff here are perfection! And the food is always perfect.. It's really affordable and they they do byob with a corkage fee.. Everything I have eaten here has been delicious, I usually get sushi.. They do some really good lunch specials too.. I really can't fault this place, not even a little bit.. Keep up the great work and I'll continue being be a loyal customer forever :) I should have typed this review long ago, better late then never..

Stoped I'm on a chilly day for some saki and Udon. Everyone was super nice and courteous. And the Udon and broth was delicious. I would highly recommend this place while in Dublin

Loved loved loved Musashi. Went for my friend's birthday, I had never been there before but I have a feeling I will be returning.. quite often. There was six of us so we thought we'd order different plates to share... good call 'cause we got to try several dishes. Everything I had was absolutely delicious, I coudln't honestly pick a favourite: the tempura and the gyoza (probably the best I've had in Dublin) were so so good and the sushi and rolls too. The staff was also very friendly and nice, we got served pretty quickly too considering how busy the place was. When we got our bill I couldn't actually believe how little we paid. It came to about €24 each, including tip and a bottle of nice wine, which is AMAZING considering how much we ate (really a lot, we actually didn't get to finish everything!) and the quality of the food. The restaurant is quite small and the decor is simple but the atmosphere is very cosy, making this place perfect for a meal with friends. No complain whatsoever, hence why the 5 stars rating. Great food, friendly and chilled atmosphere and really fantastic value, if you like Japanese food this is definitely your place. I think this is probably my new favorite sushi restaurant in town. Tip: It was very busy when we went, and apparently it usually is, so booking in advance is a good idea.

Food is great probably the best sushi in dublin , miles better then any of the bigger spots. Customer service is A+ very friendly atmosphere.
