About Hiroba Strathfield

Run by a dedicated couple right beside the station, Hiroba turns out hand-sliced sashimi and homestyle Korean classics that outclass everyday takeout. Rice for the nigiri is shaped by hand with seasoned care, while bento boxes arrive stacked with light tempura, buttery salmon, and crisp tonkatsu. Regulars mix Japanese staples with bowls of japchae or spicy hwae naengmyeon, washed down with cold Asahi and soju before catching the train.

  • Stacked Bento Sets: Generous bento boxes arrive stacked with crisp tempura, pristine sashimi cuts, and teriyaki salmon.
  • Japanese & Korean Menu: The menu blends Japanese sushi and sashimi with comforting homestyle plates like bulgogi, japchae, and cold noodles.
  • Hands-On Couple Operation: The longtime owner-chef duo personally slices the fish, cooks every hot dish to order, and attends to tables.

Why Dine at Hiroba Strathfield

Freshly prepared Japanese favorites, comforting Korean dishes, and sincere neighborhood hospitality right by Strathfield station.

  • Stacked Handcrafted Bento Sets

    Guests receive generous, multi-dish bento boxes loaded with pristine sashimi, crispy tempura, and grilled staples made to order.

    The sashimi was buttery and fresh, and the bento box was stacked.

  • Carefully Shaped Nigiri and Fresh Cuts

    Nigiri and sushi rolls are shaped carefully by hand rather than mass-produced, delivering superior texture and well-seasoned rice.

    The rice is so well seasoned and shaped by hand - nothing falls apart when you dip into soy sauce.

  • Versatile Korean and Japanese Menu Spread

    The dual menu satisfies diverse cravings in one table order by pairing traditional sushi and bento with comforting Korean classics.

    There is a combination of sushi with other Korean foods and soups which makes it even better for the variety.

  • Generous Value for Quality Dining

    Generous portions, pristine ingredients, and meticulous preparation deliver full value for diners paying a modest quality premium.

    Very reasonable price for generous portions, and they really don’t skimp - you get what you paid for in quality and quantity.

  • Heartfelt Relatives-Home Hospitality

    Guests are personally attended to by the elderly owners who prepare meals and serve guests directly, creating a deeply welcoming atmosphere.

    It definitely felt like eating at your relatives home rather than a restaurant.

    The owner personally hand-prepares all the food himself, serves water and side dishes, and delivers every plate directly to your table.

    Guests are personally welcomed upon stepping inside and greeted warmly with a personal goodbye from the chef when departing.

    Arriving just minutes before late closing is met with genuine hospitality, seating diners for full, comforting hot spreads rather than being turned away.

Before you head over

Practical tips to help you get the most out of your visit to Hiroba Strathfield.

  • Expect Made-to-Order Pace

    Dishes are prepared fresh by hand rather than mass-assembled, so allow time for made-to-order dining rather than expecting fast-food speed.

  • Late Evening Arrivals

    The venue accommodates arrivals later into the evening close to their 9 PM close, though arriving earlier gives you access to the full spread.

  • Mix Japanese and Korean Dishes

    The menu spans both Japanese sashimi bento boxes and Korean homestyle dishes like japchae, making it easy to cater to mixed cravings in one visit.
