Excellent Sushi at Sushi Mata Japanese Restaurant Parramatta

Sushi Mata is a great Japanese restaurant in the heart of Parramatta, located on Church Street, close to the corner of Phillip Street. While they specialise in Sushi, they have a full menu with loads of different types of Japanese cuisine like ramen, rice bowls, Tempura and Bento boxes.

I had walked past here a few times and had thought it was just a cheap sushi joint but decided to go in and try their sushi. When I saw their menu I realised it was a full Japanese restaurant with so much more than just sushi and sashimi. I came to try the sushi so ordered the medium sized Assorted Sushi $20.50 which comes with 9 pieces of sushi (3 salmon, 3 tuna and 3 kingfish) and 4 pieces of sushi roll with tuna and avocado.

This was very well presented on a wooden board, served with a large pile of wasabi sauce and some gari ginger. There was soya sauce and small bowls on the table for dipping the fish in, I was really impressed with quality of the sushi, very fresh fish and the sushi rice was cooked perfectly with just a small hint of the vinegar they use to make it. Top marks to the sushi chef.

Good quality sushi at Sushi Mata Parramatta

With the sushi, I had a Pot of green tea which was $4.50 so this tasty lunch came to $25 which is very reasonable for such a good quality meal. I will be back next time to try their Ramen noodle soup.

The restaurant has a nice large dining area with plenty of space between tables. The staff were lovely and it did not take long for the food to arrive.
