Samurai Teppanyaki House - Hyde Park, South Australia

If you wish to celebrate your birthday or you’re choosing your anniversary venue, this is a good choice. Easy to find and park. Ring a bell before go inside.
The staff introduced different wagyu first, then the chef did a brilliant dinner for us.
Every dishes were stunning, I love the scallop and prawn, my wife loves the Kobe wagyu and chocolate waguyu.
The price was one of the most expensive restaurant in Adelaide, but I think it’s worth it. So Great place in Adelaide, worth for trying.

Where energy, precision and emotion become a meal

From the moment we stepped into Samurai Teppanyaki House, it was clear this wasn’t just a place to eat. There was something sacred in the air, like we were stepping into a carefully held moment. The way the staff guided us to our seats was slow, considered, almost ceremonial.
Not rushed, not routine. It felt like we were being led into an experience crafted with reverence.

Our chef, Kim, was the still centre of it all. There was no bravado, no theatrics. Just quiet mastery. He didn’t simply cook. He channeled. Every flick of the wrist, every turn of the blade felt like it carried something more than skill. It was energy in motion. You could feel it radiating off the teppan as ingredients met flame. The air itself felt charged. His focus was not passion in the casual sense. It was devotion. Pure, steady, unwavering devotion to his craft.

Watching Kim cook was hypnotic. It was art and precision and emotion folded into movement. You could see the respect he had for the ingredients and the tools. And that reverence translated to the plate.
You didn’t just eat the food. You felt it.

The scallops were unforgettable.
Soft, delicate, kissed with fire just long enough to release their soul. I watched them be prepared only moments before they reached my plate, and by the time they hit my tongue, they held a kind of memory. Not just of flavour, but of movement, sound, intention. It felt intimate, like the food had whispered its story through every sense.

For my main, I chose the Moreton bay bug. My husband had the lobster. Both were beyond beautiful. The bug was sweet and tender, melting into richness without ever overpowering. Every part of it was used with purpose. Even the shells and prawn heads became part of the meal.
Kim walked me through how to make prawn chips, explaining it with kindness and clarity when I asked questions, offering a piece of his practice I’ll carry home with me.

There was something deeply grounding about it all. Kim knew when to speak and when to let the room breathe. When he joked, it lifted the energy. When he stepped back, it gave space to absorb what was unfolding. There was a shared sense of awe that hummed quietly through the whole room. It wasn’t just a dinner. It was connection. To the chef, to the food, to the moment.

Samurai Teppanyaki House is unlike any restaurant I’ve ever experienced. This is not just about the food, though the food is exceptional. It’s about the feeling. The energy. The way each bite carries with it the echo of fire, steel, and soul. The way you leave, not just full, but stilled. Moved.

My taste buds danced, but it was my heart that lingered.

Highly recommend here. The food is so good and speed super good.
Much appreciated with our chef Dan. She is so professional and humorous. Cuz my mum cannot speak English, she directly use bilingual service for my husband family who are Aussies and my mum in Chinese. And also explained every dishes so detailed.
Thanks Dan so much.

Amazing dining experience! The highlight was the Mayura Chocolate Wagyu—so tender and rich with a subtle sweetness, absolutely melts in your mouth. The F1 Wagyu was also perfectly cooked, juicy, and flavorful. The abalone and Patagonian toothfish were fresh and expertly prepared. Every dish was presented beautifully. A big thank you to chef Nimo and staff for providing such an incredible experience—we truly felt like VIPs. Definitely worth a visit for a special occasion!
