Shoya is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants. Interestingly, I've never experienced this hit-and-miss service that others have spoken about. Maybe I've just been lucky or maybe it's because it's always been fairly quiet when I've been. From one yakiniku-lover to another, have you seen the Air Yakiniku website? It's a hoot! - Cheers. Hi Mellie,

Thanks for the great post! Shoya is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants. Interestingly, I’ve never experienced this hit-and-miss service that others have spoken about. Maybe I’ve just been lucky or maybe it’s because it’s always been fairly quiet when I’ve been. From one yakiniku-lover to another, have you seen the Air Yakiniku website? It’s a hoot! – Cheers.

Unfortunately most of it is crap, which I now have the authority to say after eating many, many bowls of in Japan recently. If you find one, let me in on the secret!

The service was great back then with actual Japanese waitresses! However, as time passes, the portions seem to get smaller. <br/>They used to have oxtail Ramen which was really good, but unfortunately they took it off the menu. The service also wasn't as good as it was, so I've stopped going. <br/>The pictures are really nice though. Do you happen to know any good Ramen shop in Melbourne?

Shoya's menu does have a section for main courses, though. In this way, I reckon it is quite authentic. A more formal Japanese meal is not about large portions of one of two dishes, but small portions of many different dishes.<br/><br/>Of course, the down said is this may not satisfy the expectation of some people and may blow your budget if you want to get full. <br/><br/>I think you will have to get your expectation right if you want to enjoy eating there.
