Shobosho

This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Adelaide for a while. Amazing service and delicious food!! Can’t fault it!

The food is mind-blowing delicious. Amazing food that melts in your mouth. A must-try restaurant for anyone in Adelaide.

Booth seating was quiet and intimate, service was efficient friendly and staff were v helpful with us four vegans. Shobosho is a must have for Adelaide - the food was delicious, a six star restaurant.

Dinner wasn’t too bad, and the service was ok. But for the price I’ve had better yaktori.

Greatly enjoyed the food and service. Unique restuarant. Would love to come again.

Fantastic as usual. Just let them feed you, they absolutely know what they’re doing

Love Love Love, Every bite was amazing, Atmosphere great. 3rd time i've been here and i've never been disappointed.

Delicate balanced flavours and a really enjoyable experience to watch it all unfold in front of you sitting at the bar.

Shobosho is by far one of the BEST restaurants in Adelaide now, serving up the freshest and most insane flavour combinations (that you could probably never image) the Raw tuna, edamame, black rice and grilled Nori dish is out of this world, and I can never fault this place everytime we come back!

Awesome food! Good recommendations on the cocktails too!

The food was amazing and so was the service. I will defiantly be coming back for the tuna and salmon. I cant remember what the rose was but it worked really well with the food. A day I wont forget.....

What a discovery! Really great food, super service and lovely atmosphere!! Don’t miss this place when visiting Adelaide!

Busy, good vibe, not a place for a romantic date. Food came out quick, delicious. Fantastic service.

Great food. We did the $50 feed me option and weren’t disappointed. In my opinion, the drinks were a little bit on the expensive side.

Anxious to try Shobosho for nearly 12 mths now - after attending a Tasting Australia function. Not disappointed - food delicious, staff friendly, extremely attentive and happy to answer our never ending questions. A very unique experience that we will never forget and will definitely return to enjoy again.

absolutely loved it! Cool atmosphere. Reminds me of a Melbourne side alley restaurant. Casual and laid back with some house beats playing in the background. Average selection of Japanese whiskey on offer. I tried the Yamazaki 12 year neat. Nice barley notes with aged cedar and peaty aftertaste. Food was well presented and attention to speedy service was appreciated. They were able to accompany our request to swap the dumplings for the pork sando. Overall 4.5/5. Service was ok. We asked for a bar seat online but were seated in booths instead. Waiters were attentive but lacked a welcoming feeling from them. Overall we would go back again and recommend to others.

The food was excellent. I'd say the only miss was the Blue Crab California Roll. It was okay, but the crab was a little lost. The Tuna, Pot-Stickers and Tartare were highlights. One of our dishes got missed, but by that stage we were full, so no major drama. Great drinks list too.

We really enjoyed the whole experience. The staff was fantastic as was the food!

Food was good! But poor service! Went there for the very first time and for the amount we paid, we were expecting a better service! The bill was put on the table when we were still going. When we finished the food, we continued on with some chats and then one of the waiter brought the eftpos machine pressuring us to pay and rushed us through! Very disappointing! Obviously need some customer service training

Brilliant welcome and service
Stunning food
Allowed us to have time between courses over lunch
Must be one of the best restaurants in Adelaide

This restaurant is absolutely fabulous. Excellent food, really well presented with flair and imagination. Highly recommended.

Was a great spot, great ambience and service. Food was good, but think the feed menu could’ve been given things that compliment each other. Definitely love to go back and choose from menu next.

Excellent food and service. Relaxed dining. Enjoyed being in the heart of the experience - seated at the bar opposite the Head Chef.

Great food, great display. Chef was fully in control, made it look easy and it is NOT! Well done!

Fantastic food and they were even able to accommodate a garlic allergy and still deliver the Feed Us menu. We'll be back!

Our food arrived prior to our drinks. We wanted to wait to have our sake to accompany our meal, and as we were seated at the bar, watched the barman spend many minutes meticulously arranging mint leaves in cocktails, readjusting them and then dusting with icing sugar while our drinks docket sat in front of him. Our $27 skewer of wagyu was going cold in front of us while we waited. We also ordered the heirloom tomatoes on the recommendation of the waiter, who suggested our order was "on the small side". The tomatoes were pale in colour, with hardly any flesh or flavour and much like I would expect to buy in a major supermarket - flavourless and very disappointing. Especially for a $17 side. The other food was good, but other than the "pot-sticker" dumplings, nothing that I would particularly strongly recommend. I had wanted to come to Shobosho since it opened and was really disappointed with the food and overall experience.

Don’t mind spending nearly $300 for 2 People for a nice dinner but felt really cramped on the bar bench. Food was great but if I’m to spend good money on a dinner for 2 I would like to be comfortable . Felt a little disappointed as I was really looking forward to the experience. Very little space for plates and glasses . Felt like I was eating on a aircraft as had so little room.

The food is consistently outstanding, with a variety of delicious flavours.

Have frequented many times, and will continue to.

Brilliant. One of Adelaide’s premier eateries.

Surprisingly outstanding Japanese in the heart of the CDB. Food was delicious! Drinks were amazing

What can I say... the food is amazing! Every dish is unique and full of flavour!

We went to shobosho with quite high expectations. We decided to have the chefs menu to try a variety of their dishes. I felt that the majority of the dishes were quite average and nothing stood out. There was a particular Japanese Greek salad that was quite bad that we couldn't finish. The two couples either side of us that also were given this salad and it seemed like they could finish it either. The teriyaki chicken was quite nice but we were only given the quarter. Considering the price of the meal, I felt that they could have considered the half. Perhaps the menu is better during other months but I didn't feel like it was anything amazing

Really enjoyable food and surroundings.

Another excellent meal at Shobosho - delicious flavours, diverse and interesting variety of food, wines that cimplimented the food. Spot on service.

Firstly many thanks to the person on the door who was able to calmly change our reservation to enable us to have a chair with a back.
Food choices and drinks were extensive and delicious and knowledgeable staff ensured ease of ordering.
A wonderful food and cultural experience.

Sat at the bar and had a fantastic night. Excellent food coupled with great service. Highly recommend

Never fails to impress

Unfortunately after all the hype we were slightly dissapointed with the food. The raw tuna was great and definitely worth trying but unfortunately the rest of the food was extremely mediocre. Our pork cutlets were over cooked that we barely touched them. The restaurant was beautiful and the ambience was great. Very busy for an 8pm sitting so vibe was great but unfortunately attension to detail got a bit lost due to it being busy. Hopefully we can try you again and it was just a busy 'off' night

Very interesting Japanese food. Lots of different flavours and textures. Great staff.
Highly recommend. We had the fixed menu.

Always delicious food and good service. The only drawback is that if there are only 2 of you then you are sat at the bar, which doesn't make for a relaxing experience.

Superb food, excellent experience and very knowledgeable staff!
Overall great restaurant - it was our second time & we would happily come back again!
