Buzzling restaurant that gives a great Japan atmosphere. Service was good when you can get them (restaurant was full). Hit and misses in food but maybe it's just our taste.

Must order the pork jowl! The place is nice, with an assortment of sake and the BBQ smell does not linger on you. However the food is slightly pricey!!

I know this is a very busy, popular izakaya. But I have been to better ones. The good bottle of 750 ml sake here will cost above $100. the food range is wide but serving is small for its price. I would rather they charge me a bit more short of ordering two of the same dish which then will be too much. So, I will not go back. I have better alternative.

Have not been to many izakaya bars but the food at Shukuu did not disappoint! Thought the small plates would not be very filling but there was plenty to eat and much more - each dish was cooked superbly and the wide repoertpire of the establishment cannot be overstated. I especially liked their chicken karage (fried perfectly) and the skewers (which had a great smokey flavour). Another highlight was the vinegared mackerel which was supple and wonderfully acidic. My only regret was perhaps ordering too many fried dishes and not trying out more grilled/skewer dishes. Haven’t always been a fan of sake but the easy to drink sweet and dry styles made for a pleasant accompaniment for the food. Will definitely be down to expand my sake experience and Shukuu’s vast collection makes it an ideal haunt. I recommend this place highly for groups of friends and couples alike, especially if the idea of trying a multitude of flavours and styles of Japanese cooking appeals to you!

The service was really good! The waiter saw that we were indecisive and decided to run through the menu with us. Food wise, thought it was average and a bit pricey as well. My favourite was the mentaiko rosti. They were really generous with the mentaiko. The wagyu skewer was also a fav! The beef just melts in your mouth. The other dishes we ordered were average and was warm when they came out. We would’ve preferred it to be hotter. Otherwise, it was not a bad experience :-)

Had very high expectations due to reviews so was then a little disappointed. Portions were absolutely tiny, they had no Gyoza or Tonkatzu. The beef was very yummy but everything so tiny (for the price). Atmosphere ok, did feel like a Japanese izakaya. Staff ok but not overly friendly. Since there’s so much competition and we’ve been to better Osaka had in Singapore we don’t think we‘ll be back.
