   Absolutely incredible from start to finish. Food was astounding, service was wonderful, location was superb. Highly recommended the Feed Me option, the chefs knowledge of his best meals is jaw dropping. Pricey, but well worth it. Can't wait to come back.

   Management did very well to accommodate a large group of 12 on a Monday night when many places are closed. Started well with staff being courteous and considerate, but it strain became very obvious when there was a very long wait towards the end of the tasting experience (required for large groups). Went for about 3h, we ended up having guests leave as it took too long as they had very tired kids. Whilst the main host offered compensation, what irked me was the assisting staff. As we were voicing our complaint to our host (multiple follow ups asking where the food was), the staff just dumped the plates stating the description knowing full well nobody was listening as we were interacting with the host. Body language was "here's your damned food, stop complaining". As for the food, the beginning plates were really good, but the mains and dessert fell a little short off the mark (chicken nicely grilled but marinade not showing). You're likely to get a better experience on a lazier night.

   Excellent balance of flavours across the board. Highlights were the baked aubergine (divine), char siu sausage roll (with rice wine pickled onions, just delicious) and the exquisite cheesy milk buns. Monday lunchtime so not busy. Great playlist, audible but not intrusive. Attentive service. Fun to see and hear the kitchen in action.

    Our first visit and the food was amazing matched by the personal service we received from the friendly and attentive staff, with a special mention to Bella who made us feel right at home. Wanting to try so many dishes we did over-order however we'll know better next time. Love the place and we will definitely be back for more.

    I was expecting something special as this restaurant has been mooted as one of the best in the city. Service was slow which was quite annoying when there were 5 staff standing around talking. The food was really salty and oily. All of it. I was really looking forward to a contemporary Japanese experience but all I got was junk suitable for late night drunks. Never again.

    Shobosho has a fun, comforting and intimate ambience. The staff are welcoming and friendly, the drinks are fun and the food is outstanding and they cater to all dietary requirements. I would recommend shobosho for any special occasion and we will be returning soon!

    Absolutely a must when in Adelaide. They were so accommodating when they realised I was 40 weeks pregnant and sitting on a stool they moved us, not that I was bothered by the stool. Food was out of this world and the strip loin was the best we have ever eaten. Knowledge of sake for my novice husband who was treated by the experts was 10 out of 10. Hard pressed to beat this restaurant of my favourite now.

    Shobosho is in a convinient position from the Sofetel. Our table was great and the staff was very well mannered and knew their food, he listened and then recommended the right food and portion to us. My husband and I had a great meal and have since recommended Sobosho to our family/friends.

    - Food was well presented but taste was bland generally - We spent almost $100 for meal of 2 and 1 small kid. Definitely not the best value for money. We will spend this for good food, but not foodcourt meal nicely presented to us - Service was odd, we came for ramen and we have to sit at different place for ramen. This is a business problem, not a customer problem. Sort service, be customer centric. As customer we want to have the freedom to pick anything from the menu and be served well - Manager served and didn't really have good customer service to get back to us
