A Taste of Japan in
Inner West Sydney
Terry, the chef behind The Issen, has spent over 20 years working in Sydney's restaurant kitchens, with the last decade focused entirely on Japanese cuisine. When he took over The Issen two years ago, his goal was straightforward: bring fresh, quality Japanese food to the Mortlake community at prices that make it an everyday option, not just a special occasion. Come in, enjoy the food, and say hello - Terry loves a chat.
