KINTARO Japanese restaurant

We live locally in Collaroy and when we have a date night or dinner with family/friends our go to is Chef Masa @ Kintaro. The food is always fresh and delicious which is why we always come back - the team is super friendly and efficient.

Couldn't recommend highly enough, 100% best japanese on the northern beaches!

Definitely the best Japanese restaurant I have been to. Extensive menu with traditional favourites as well as some with a fresh twist, absolutely delicious food, and reasonably priced. Cosy atmosphere and authentic decor, and staff are always very friendly.

We absolutely love this place and it’s become our favourite spot to eat out, the food is epic quality with so many choices and the choice of special alcohols (if you don’t BYO) are amazing- we love the yuzu sake and plum sake. Really well priced for the quality and amount of food. You order yourself and can order anything as you go from an iPad which makes service really quick. The staff are so friendly and nice also, little slice of Japan by the beach

First-rate Japanese food, cold Sapporos and a view of the beach. Chicken nanban is the best I've ever had.

I have been dining at Kintaro for years so had to try out its new location in the Northern Beaches! It is on a strip of shops and has a very Japanese cosy vibe. Food was a usual fresh and delicious! The chili volcano sushi is a must have and the chicken karaage was perfectly crispy and seasoned. Service is quick and friendly. Our family love this restaurant and will continue to make the trip out here, the food is worth it!

Great owner-chef with elaborated gourmet Japanese foods + humble but friendly staffs with genuine hospitality which create our weekend retreat. Thank you Masa-san😊

Rates 3.5/5. After a 5 or 6 years hiatus, 1 of our fav jap is back. Right across where it used to be, taking over where Mihana was. Renowned for its homestyle trad jap dishes, it seems that they have stepped up their game n venue.

Agedashi tofu, prawn, tokoyaki, grilled octopus, sesame spinach, spicy avo salmon roll, white bait, chick katsu donburi, whiting tempura n a couple of sake (cant rem the names), there were no standouts but all was above average.

By mid meal, they were running full house, inevitably service dipped. Cant rem if it was thurs/fri or sat evening. 1 more floor staff would make it way less hectic. Kitchen coped well though. Bbs.
