This restaurant IS BYO wine!!! (writing this because it doesn’t have it in the info =)

Have been going here for years and have literally tried all the other Japanese restaurants in town but keep coming back here! Everything is so fresh and AMAZING value for money. Service is always friendly

Top notch restaurant for Japanese cuisine maniacs! My girlfriend and I love this place!

We’ll be back. We ate there one evening and had a great meal. We enjoyted it so much we decided to lunch there and eat something different the next day!
Next time we’re back in Dunedin we’ll be back! Always great to find agreat central Japanese restaurant. Friendly helpful service, yummy food! thanks

Minami has the best Japanese food in Dunedin no doubt. They have a huge selection of sushi and also many hot dishes. My favourite is chicken kara age which is lightly battered chicken deep fried and is then served with a mayo/tomato sauce dip. The chicken just melts in your mouth. The salmon sushi is made fresh on the spot and the salmon tastes just as it should.

Prob the best sushi in Dunedin. Rest of food is solid if not spectacular.

Very poor service – we had to wait at least an hour for the food to arrive, we had to ask for soy sauce and we had to remind the staff we still had some dishes to be served (we ordered a combination meal at the beginning of the menu). We booked in advance via telephone and a staff member took down my name and number (I even had to spell my name) and confirmed the time but they had no record of our booking when we arrived so they seated us at a table right next to the kitchen and toilet and told us we would be moved to a better table later on, however this did not happen. We felt as if we were constantly forgotten about (and there were hardly any other customers in the restaurant) and the food was of poor quality (it most certainly did NOT resemble the pictures in the menu) and was presented in grubby-looking dishes. I would certainly NOT recommend anyone dine here – it ruined our anniversary night!

Minami is great for good tasting healthy food, quickly and at a great price. I’m a regular.
