This is our favourite Japanese restaurant and I feel a real hidden gem. The menu is extensive and caters very well to meat eaters and vegetarians.
Each dish has so much flavour and presented with love.
The customer service is also exceptional. On our last visit, the waitress overheard it was my sister in laws birthday and brought over a cocktail and the sweetest little paper crane 💕
It is not bright and in your face like many restaurants along the strip (maybe why it is quiet) but if you are looking for a restaurant where you can have long conversations over great food and never feel rushed, I highly recommend.
Oh, it is byo however they also have a great selection of local and imported alcohol.

Wow. Ive been to Japan a few times and the chef is the real deal. If you enjoy the cuisine as it is in Japan, this is THE place. I seriously wanted to drdg people in for the experience. 10/10 in all aspects. The best dining experience ive had in Perth.
The first time we’ve been to Senoji.
A pleasant surprise and as it wasn’t too busy it was easy to talk and enjoy the food.
A really good range of small and large meals in true Japanese style.
The owner/chef was attentive and helpful as was the wait staff.
BYO and licensed.
Will definitely go there again.

I had to pre order the okonomiyaki (savoury pancake) as it apparently takes 2 hours to make. It tasted okay but the sauce was overpowering. When I went to pay he said next time there would need to be a minimum of two people to order it as it’s just not worth it. I’m not sure why an extra person would make a difference unless he meant there would need to be 2 orders of it? Either way if that’s the case then it should be written on the menu or if it’s such a hassle to make them remove it completely from the menu, found him a bit rude/blunt.
Agreed with Eric’s comment below – definitely purely for food and culture enthusiast only!
My partner and I are so so glad we found this little hidden gem and met the loveliest man behind it all – who has been there for 20+ years!
Yuki (Head chef) puts his pride and soul into making these dishes as authentic and simple as possible – identical to the taste you would find in Japan. I have never enjoyed such simple tastings in Japanese food in Perth, unlike at Senoji. Hands down J
Note: The chef solely works alone; please be mindful of the chef, and expect to wait – Yuki does an amazing job at managing, preparing the meals and serving. There were 3 tables and we did not wait all that long – we were happy to.
Senoji has been the first Japanese Restaurant we have been to that has kept it simple with no fusion – and we have tried all the Japanese Restaurants North to South of the river of WA
The food was delicious, authentic and the chef was very kind - remember not to shake his right hand too hard though, he has an injury! Thank you Chef.
We will see you again soon.

Interesting place. We came for early dinner, kids wanted sushi, but this place s out of sushi rice. That aside, kudos to the chef, trying his best to prepare good Japanese dishes. The waiter too, was doing her best to welcome everyone, do the clean up, take orders and serve food. She was looking exhausted but still doing her best waiting tables. Authentic? Yes but i ve tried other japanese chefs’ food too so i can say, to be fair, food here is alright. Serving is still small (that’s japanese serving) even though the menu reads ‘big serving’. Price wise, yes it’s pricey for the taste but then again i ve been to other japanese places where we paid 500 for a family of four (dinner) - prepared by Japanese chefs too. So, yea, again, this place is okay. Atmosphere is a bit gloomy. Good for long chit chat with friends. Great for families and couples too. There s always room for improvement of course & we wish the chef (s) and the entire Senoji team good luck.
Very authentic Japanese cuisine and some exceeded expectations by a lot!! Though not all food was extraordinary, the gyoza was pretty average. Food was overall great but jazz music really gave me anxiety when I’m having sushi.. and the scent could improve it smells like soggy wood upon entrance which takes away a bit of appetite. Price was on the higher side but quite worth it for the quality of food. I am surprised that I only came to discover this place after years and years of eating at Vic park every day.. but I will be back, they got the sake tastings that we wanna try next time!
