    Bansho delivered an absolutely amazing dining experience. The food was delicious, and beautifully presented. The cocktails were so unique. The wine list was expansive, and fitted all budgets. The prices are a little bit high, but they are entirely worth paying for what you receive. The service was impeccable all night long, the staff were attentive and kind, and willing to listen to us talk their ears off. Bansho has immediately become a favourite, and I’ll be returning as often as possible!

    First time visiting and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The food is excellent and the sushi plate is a highlight. The wine list is very reasonably priced. Will be going back again soon

    Outstanding food and service by the Staff. A very loud table unfortunately spoiled the experience as at times my partner could barely hear me.

    What an amazing restaurant, we thoroughly enjoyed our evening. The food was amazing, the service was excellent, and the team was so friendly. We will definitely be back on a regular basis, based on our experience on Friday evening. A credit to the whole team at Bansho!!

    Amazing food, outstanding service and a great space all made for a very enjoyable evening. Even though we’re moving out of the area, we’ll definitely be returning on a regular basis. Adelaide’s loss is definitely Armadale's gain with this venue.
