Reasonable quality of Australian Wagyu for the premium buffet dinner for a rich and indulgent meal. Some hiccup in the seating - Staff initially put us near the entrance on table A01 with a used/ charred grill and no proper setup. As it was too exposed and noisy, we asked to shift to another table inside. Once settled, the service was prompt, and they checked in on us from time to time. We indicated birthday celebration at the online reservation, but there was no special arrangement nor verbal acknowledgement at the restaurant.

My family booked for a birthday dinner for 5 tonight at Tajimaya and it was truly one of the most memorable dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment we were seated, the service stood out. The servers were attentive without being intrusive, constantly keeping an eye on our table to ensure everything was running smoothly. Orders arrived quickly, and plates were cleared promptly, making the entire meal feel seamless and well-paced. The highlight, of course, was the food. The Wagyu yakiniku was exceptional — beautifully marbled, tender, and rich with flavor. Grilling each slice at the table was an experience in itself, with the meat practically melting in our mouths. The sashimi selection was equally impressive: fresh, thickly cut, and incredibly clean-tasting. What truly elevated the experience, however, was the thoughtful service. After we finished peeling prawns, one of the servers (Kelvin) noticed our hands were messy and, without us having to ask, immediately brought over water for us to wash our hands. It was such a small but meaningful gesture that showed how attentive and proactive they were. They consistently went the extra mile, anticipating our needs before we even voiced them. To top it all off, they surprised the birthday boy at our table with a small cake. It was a sweet and thoughtful touch that made the celebration feel even more special. The team made sure the moment felt warm and personal, turning a great meal into a truly memorable occasion.

⭐☆☆☆☆ We’ve visited Tajimaya many times in the past and always enjoyed the food and experience. However, due to work and family commitments, we haven’t been visiting as often. When we were at Vivo in mid-October, the first thing that came to mind was that I needed to get my Tajimaya fix! Sadly, this recent visit was quite disappointing. We were surprised to learn that the buffet no longer includes drinks. The last time we came (years ago), the soft drink station was still part of the buffet. Considering that Sukiya, which shares the same management, includes drinks in their buffet, it’s puzzling why this was omitted for the BBQ side. Hopefully, the management can review this and consider reinstating the drink option. Believe the cost is no going to be high. Service-wise, I really feel there’s room for improvement. It would be much better if a table bell system could be implemented instead of diners having to raise their hands and call out to staff, who are clearly very busy. There was an elderly male staff member who left a rather poor impression — he tends to forget requests and seemed more interested in chatting with the Caucasian customers next to us. His colleague even joked about him “going home with them” after they left, which I found unprofessional. Meanwhile, the manager was stationed at the entrance focusing on incoming guests, but it felt like customers already dining inside were somewhat neglected. Fortunately, there was a lady staff member who was fast, attentive, and efficient — I truly appreciated her service. I believe I’ve seen her many years ago, and it’s comforting to see familiar faces who still care about customer satisfaction. Overall, this dining experience was a letdown for my family and me. We sincerely hope to see improvements in service attentiveness and buffet inclusions. Tajimaya used to be one of our go-to spots, and it would be wonderful to see it regain that standard again.

I had a wonderful dining experience at Suki-Ya Vivo City. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the food exceeded all expectations — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I’d especially like to commend our server, Philip, for his outstanding service. He was attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations that truly enhanced our meal. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made us feel genuinely welcomed and well cared for throughout our visit. It’s rare to find such consistent quality in both food and service, and Philip’s dedication to ensuring every guest has a great experience really stood out. I’ll definitely be returning soon and recommending this place to friends and family. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

If your stomach had a bucket list — this wagyu buffet should be at the top. At $59.90 for unlimited wagyu, fresh sashimi and more, I wonder why I didn’t come sooner?! Their Premium Wagyu Buffet serves over 60 items — from buttery wagyu slices that melt faster than your willpower, to thick salmon, tuna and swordfish sashimi that taste like fresh ocean treasure. And if you’re feeling fancy, you can order [1 round free] the Special Yakiniku Platter or the Jumbo Prawns trio — with Spicy, Garlic Butter, Mentaiko flavours. Delicious Signature Yakiniku Beef Don and Dragon Wagyu Karubi. Oh, and try their Countdown Challenge [spend $100++ in a single bill]! Stop the timer at exactly 5 seconds and your reflexes might just win you your next Premium Wagyu Buffet for two! We ended with desserts like daifuku and ice cream, surrounded by great vibes and a happy belly Honestly, it was worth every bite. Wagyu waiting for? Its time to book your feast at Tajimaya Yakiniku.
