• Japanese • Geelong West

Booked 2 times today

Michael Bong didn’t come to Japanese cooking along the obvious route – he’s Korean, for one – but now that he has, he’s certainly making the most of it. Tomodachi Izakaya & Bar on Little Malop Street in the centre of Geelong is a tribute to the corner bars of Tokyo, with a focus on the charcoal grill and the skewered mates that come off it. That results in top-notch pork belly, beef and chicken thighs for the meat-eaters and salmon, prawns and scallops for the fish fans as well as beancurd and vegetables for the vegetarians. Aside from the grill, there is also an astounding array of sushi and sashimi dishes, octopus pancake balls, salt and pepper squid, alongside dessert options and a long cocktail menu that befits all the best, boozy backstreet izakaya joints in Japan. Take trip into Geelong town centre for a Japanese meal to remember at Tomodachi on Little Malop Street – just remember to book your table before you arrive, as they do get crowded.

We visited for the first time and had a great experience. It’s a small venue and was clearly busy given all the tables were dirty even though the venue wasn’t full. Our table was quickly cleaned and the service was quick and very friendly all night. We loved the menu choice and easily found dishes we all wanted to share, ordering on the QR code was simple and we were surprised payment wasn’t taken in the app but at the till afterwards. The food was good, hot and very tasty. We thought the value was good too. I even got a birthday ice cream surprise at the end! Thanks, we will be back!
