Hotaru always delivers. The bento box came with fresh fruit and miso soup with fresh mushrooms in it. Service was friendly and unobtrusive. Quiet on a Saturday lunchtime but lovely koi nobori decorations.

Have been to this lovely restaurant a few times now and have never been disappointed. This particular visit we didn't opt for the sushi but went with teppanyaki beef and terayaki chicken as mains and really enjoyed it. The food was of a really high quality and the service was excellent, very attentive and helpful.

The interior of the restaurant is decorated well and is nice and cosy. A sunken seating section was also available which would provide a bit more of a special experience. Price-wise the meals are maybe a little more expensive than some other similar places in Adelaide but in my view the quality is worth it (and we did eat a lot of food on our visit so definitely no complaints about being hungry after).

Overall very highly recommended for a special dinner.

This is the second time we have been to the Hotaru the first being 12 months ago & I am glad to say the standard hasn't changed. The food was great & if there was something we didn't know about the food, it was explained to us. I will be going back & recommending my friends go.

This is the second time we have been to this restaurant and both times the meal has been superb. The service is great and the atmosphere friendly. The seating is different, especially removing shoes to sit at the Japanese table. Would recommend a visit. Using the entertainment book makes the meal better value.
