Yachiyo Japanese Bistro

09/10/2024

It is with mixed emotions that we announce the closure of Yachiyo Japanese Bistro Mosman on October 8th. Over the 10 years, we’ve shared countless memories, from the joy of sunny afternoons at our beautifully renovated outdoor seating to the challenges we’ve faced along the way. We’ve experienced not only moments of triumph but also difficult times, including the rising cost of ingredients like salmon, which doubled from $12 per kilogram when we first opened. There were also challenges, such as when a chef we trusted to manage our franchise opened a competing restaurant nearby. Despite these hardships, we are grateful to have been able to serve our beloved Mosman community with fresh, handmade Japanese food at an affordable price.

Through the trials of the pandemic, we were overwhelmed by the incredible support of our customers, and during this period of inflation, our team worked tirelessly to maintain our standards. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to all the chefs who worked from morning until night and to the staff who embodied one of my favorite sayings: “Serving others and bringing joy to people is the ultimate luxury “, a philosophy shared by the founder of CoCo Ichibanya, who built 1,200 restaurants around this very principle. With the strength of our company, Kaisen, they continued to deliver this message, keeping our prices low and putting customers first like true samurai.

I deeply appreciate not only the efforts of our staff but also the kindness of our customers, who always offered words of encouragement. Although Yachiyo Japanese Bistro Mosman will be closing its doors, we remain committed to our mission of delivering affordable, delicious Japanese food to the world, always with the spirit of service at the heart of what we do.

To the Mosman community, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. And to those customers we were unable to say goodbye to personally, or who may have experienced inconvenience during this transition, we sincerely apologize and ask for your understanding.

With gratitude,
Mitsu
CEO, Yachiyo Japanese Bistro

We’re so incredibly grateful to each and every one of the 1500+ customers who’ve visited us in our first week of operation at Otogo. Your support has exceeded our target of serving 1000 guests, and we are humbled by your warm response.

We must also sincerely apologize to our customers who’ve had to wait for over 30 minutes during our busiest hour from 1:00-2:00 pm. While our aim is to serve every order in 5 minutes, a sudden rush can extend this time. Rest assured, we’re continuously striving to improve this and serve you faster. We’re open from 8:00 am when footfall is generally lower, so if you’re in a hurry, consider visiting us early.

In celebration of our milestone and as a token of our gratitude, we’re thrilled to present the first 25 customers with our soft, melt-in-your-mouth Daikon radish, slow-cooked for two days in our signature soba broth. Ready by the weekend, this token of our appreciation comes with a host of health benefits, thanks to the Daikon.

The Daikon radish is low in calories, high in dietary fiber, and packed with Vitamin C and minerals like potassium, calcium, and magnesium, contributing to your overall health and well-being. Its high water content and diuretic properties aid in detoxification, making it a great choice for those pursuing a healthier lifestyle.

Stay tuned to our Instagram Stories for details on how to collect your complimentary Daikon gift.

Once again, thank you for your support. Your patience and understanding mean the world to us.

At Otogo, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our hardworking new team members who are embracing our vision and navigating through their busy roles. Your efforts are seen, appreciated, and integral to Otogo’s journey of excellence.

To our valued customers, we humbly apologize if our service times have been slower as we onboard our new staff members. We’re committed to delivering only the best for you.

Speaking of the best, let’s talk about our soba. Crafted from 95% buckwheat flour, our soba may break over time, not because it’s poorly made, but because we prioritize health over convenience. Gluten-free buckwheat gives our soba its signature texture, but also makes it more delicate.

Why 95% buckwheat? Because it’s nutrient-rich, filled with dietary fiber, protein, vitamins (B group and E), and minerals (magnesium and iron). It helps maintain good health, manages blood sugar levels due to its fiber content, and aids in digestion. It’s low calorie and gives a feeling of fullness, making it ideal for those conscious about their diet.

At Otogo, we choose health. We choose quality. We choose to put our customers and staff first. Thank you for your understanding and continuous support.

Yesterday, we were honored to welcome 280 guests at Otogo. Each one of you is a testament to the vibrant community we’re building together. We’re sincerely grateful for your support and understanding, especially those who waited for up to 40 minutes. We recognize this isn’t up to our standard and we deeply apologize.

At Otogo, our commitment to quality and speedy service is unwavering. Inspired by our core values and the spirit of Kaizen, we’re making swift improvements. We’re scaling our preparations to serve up to 300 guests, increasing our team lanes from 3 to 4 for more efficient service, and tweaking our cooking times for the perfect fried dishes every time.

We’re learning and growing, and we appreciate your patience and feedback as we strive to deliver a better Otogo experience. Your journey with us is far more than just a meal—it’s the path to continuous improvement and culinary excellence.
