Sushi Waka

Traditional sushi craft up the quiet end of Pittwater Road.

The local take

Sushi Waka plays the traditional counterpoint to Manly's flashier Japanese rooms: careful, classic sushi on Pittwater Road toward the Queenscliff end of town. Upper-middle prices and a 4.5 traveller score reward the restraint.

It suits the night you want the fish to do the talking — counter seats, considered pieces, no theatrics. If you're staying around Queenscliff or North Manly, it's your closest genuinely good Japanese and a persuasive reason not to walk back into the village at all.
