Mikazuki Parramatta

Overview

Situated on the ground floor of Western Sydney University, relaxed eatery Mikazuki is popular for its extensive menu of Japanese favourites, ranging from udon and ramen to sushi and tempura. When all other mid-study lunch options fail to inspire, you can always find a certified winner here.

For a quick lunch between meetings or classes, opt for a yuzu avocado salad topped with sliced salmon sashimi; the rainbow roll with salmon, kingfish, tuna, ebi, avocado and crab mix; the chicken katsu curry; or a poke bowl.

If you're after something more substantial, Mikazuki's specialty dishes include a wagyu beef bowl with crispy onion, salmon roe and an onsen egg; baked scallop and rice in a creamy, spicy sauce; the fiery volcano ramen; and the chef's omakase sushi and sashimi platters to split among your crew (or just attack solo, if you're so inclined).

The venue serves lunch between 11.30am and 3pm every day and reopens for dinner at 5pm or 5.30pm on Saturdays.

With outposts in Eastwood, Chatswood, Strathfield, Riverside, Parramatta and Haymarket, Mikazuki has really stretched its presence across Sydney, serving up casual Japanese fare to all and sundry.
