Although the outside appearance is somewhat shabby, this belies the quality of the food and service. Situated above the Yum Yum supermarket (E-Kagen was previously the awful Yum Yum noodle bar) at the north end of Sydney Street. I ate there early last Saturday evening and the restaurant was worryingly quiet, this is I feel as a result of the close proximity of the fairly new Wagamamas. I can tell you that from a food point of view E-Kagen is far superior. They are advertised as a sushi and noodle bar, but in the evenings they provide a comprehensive (and not expensive) main course selection. Whilst there is no bar, you are welcome to bring your own alcohol, and pay a small corkage. The staff are very friendly, helpful and not rushed (Unlike Wagamama). Interestingly, quite a few of the other customers were Japanese-I always feel that if a restaurant has their own ethnic community eating the food, it must be good, and it certainly is!
Try it you won't be disappointed
