One of my favorite restaurant. Been there many times. Service is slightly better then before but room for improvement. Lack of staff is an issue
Good quality meats! Wagyu overload!!! One of the best Japanese BBQ buffet available. The service was reasonable too. Though the service of iced water could be slightly prompt, but we were happy the meat came promptly. :)
This is definitely not a pram/wheelchair accessible place as we brought our newborn in the pram there. Also, we bought a $100 groupon voucher, but still had to top up another $80 just to feed the 3 of us. It is very pricey.
The charcoal BBQ was pretty decent. Nice ambience. Good food. I will definitely return again for the weekend brunch charcoal BBQ. Two thumbs up tajimaya!
SERVICE STARTING FROM THE ENTRANCE WAS BAD. THE LADY SEEM TO BE IN HER OWN WORLD AND DISREGARD US. WHILE SITTED DOWN AND FOOD WAS SERVED, THE SERVER WOULD JUST PLACE THE FOOD ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TABLE AND LEAVE. WHILE WE ARE SITTED ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TABLE, IT MEANS THAT WE WILL HAVE TO SHIFT THE FOOD BY OURSELVES FROM THE RIGHT.
Attentive service with a smile. Because it's a charcoal grill, the fire can be finicky. The staff were extremely helpful with making sure the stove was fired to the right level. The food was fab too. Good quality meats. Definitely recommend.
The service for buffet was not as good as alacarte since it was more crowded. The quality of the meat was not even as well.
Been here for many times and it never fails me with the service and the food really fresh! Will continue support this fantastic japanese restaurant.
The service personnel (UBEN) was very attentive and patient when attending to my enquiries. Salmon sashimi was great! Beef was tender and salad served was fantastic. 👍🏼
Food was great! However, while taking orders, the service staff was overly enthusiastic with pushing for the set meal without taking to pause to really listen to what i wanted to find out. Had to interrupt the waiter twice to get his attention.
Food was decent, but pricey. The staff couldn't seem to get our orders right. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy, but it was hard to get attention to fix our order and our grill.
Overall, staffs were really attentive and service was prompt. They changed the grill for us a few times without having to be asked. However, note that we went on a weekday night where there was realtors very less customers. The food was up to expectations too.
They tell me that my salmon dish is fried but came out a shashimi one but the good thing is that they managed to change to the correct one. The sequence of serving set lunch was salad as 1st item followed by the order of main dish then fruit, side dish, soup and finally the steamed egg.
Nice meats. Not much generated smoke from the BBQ which is good. Attentive service as manager promptly added more charcoal when the heat is low.
Food was great, service was slow as we were at the end of the restaurant where hardly any staff there. Have to wait for a long time to see one staff pass by once your food are served. I had my friend kids to walk out to call for service.
Pretty decent a la carte bbq buffet - included wagyu cuts, prawns (next table had quite a few plates), pork and sashimi. As we were there mostly for the beef, that was mostly what we ordered. Food was fresh, and if needed, they'd change your charcoal to fresh, hotter ones.
Nice environment, wide selection of food and lastly, value for money Yakiniku BBQ buffet on weekend lunch with Wagyu beef. Food is fresh and staff is attentive.
One of my favourite buffet restaurants to dinew and catch up with my friends. No time limit and wagyu beef is amazing. Have been visiting so frequently.
Very good atmosphere and nice food! We really enjoy the variety of food. However, limitation of sake availability was a bit pity even desserts. Hope the restaurant can serve more various sake in near future.
The food is awesome, especially the beef! Very value for money. But we were seated in the extreme corner so waiters didn't really pay much attention to us.
This is my second time to visit. It's really a nice place. And the food are delicious! The beef is tender and bathed in its own natural gravy.
Service is not very good, we have to repeat order for few times but the food still get missed out. Some staffs have bad attitude!
Food is abit too costly. Quiet place to eat in peace and the place is not filled with bbq smell. Staff are friendly and helpful
This is my 3rd time having lunch with my family there. Food are good and value for money on week end 1-4hrs lunch. Waygu and prawns are nice. Will be there again soon.
My husband & I were late and on the way to restaurant. I asked my son to order US Wagyu Set for 2 $148.80 n some ala-carte dishes The Service staff recommended Japanese Miyazaki Beef Set Menu for 2 $228.80 with $60 discount. This is really VALUE FOR MONEY. We also ordered some ala carte dishes. Cooked Food were delicious Raw meat was fresh Yummy! Service staff were very courteous & friendly. Always smiling. No doubt the set is for 2 but the staff serve us with 3 cups ice cream. This was my 2nd visit to Tajimaya restaurant. That night was to celebrate my birthday. We are very happy and satisfied. We will visit the restaurant again.
Serving staff were hospitably heartwarming and attentive. Fresh and well plattered food. Definitely be recommending this to friends and relatives. #comingbacksoon #lovelyexperience Thank you ! ! !
Food was good. Service was average. Atmosphere was average. Menu selection was reasonable. Expensive for a restaurant located in that area. May not go back again.
The buffet was worthwhile to visit. Fresh ingredients and good service. We enjoyed every moment at the restaurant and will definitely recommend to families and friends.
Good service at Tajimaya. The meat is premium grade with Generous portion. Good selection of meat and seafood. Would be better with more varieties of vegetables.
The environment was good, smokeless bbq, the service staff are attentive, food was great, overall the experience is excellent, will definitely revisit this restaurant again
the quality of beef and prawn are great! Also 1 hour 40 mins duration of buffet time is good enough. Notes that the last order for brunch time is 3pm, and it closes at 4pm.
It was a great dining experiences in term of good food, friendly, courteous and exceptional helpful staff. Definitely would come again and recommend to all my friends.
It was a birthday dinner for my friend. Food is excellent, service need to be careful on the Untensils part. But overall staff is very friendly and approachable. Keep it up!
Service staff attentiveness is close to non existence for a restuarant that was not crowded (only a handful of table was filled) not returning again
Poor quality food and value. Had the set menu and the wagyu barely filled up a plate worth of beef, diluted and tasteless chawanmushi and stale tasting kimchi. Worst of all is the salmon sashimi came tasting of air; exposed to air too long and lost all its flavour. Poor cleanliness. Plates came covered in ash with stains on the wooden tables. Service was sub-par and undermanned even on a weekday evening. Will not go again. Lack of value and taste. Horrible experience. A meal that costs $180 after gst and i cant help but bolt out of the horrible place the moment i finished my food. Total duration lasted 50mins including 15mins of waiting for food to be served.
Nice place to chill out. Foods is fantastic especially the beef and tiger prawn. Staffs are friendly too. Planing to go next month again! See you Tajimaya!
Overall quite a good experience. Thumb up to their attentive staffs that serve promptly whenever we request for anything and really smiley! Food potions seems like shrink down a little. Nevertheless, we will go back again!
Overall experience is good. Food is nice. Serve is also decent. Will come again. I would recommend it to my friends. Pork belly got too much fat, can be improved when serving the pork belly.
Quality of food is good but lack variety, especially the vegetables. Service is not great at all and serving time is slow and orders are forgotten.
Excellent value for the weekend buffet (if you can eat lots of meat)! Wagyu cuts were delicious. Do note that the portion sizes for some of the stuff is quite large (so go slow first when you order)
