"I travel all over the place and if there's a sushi shop I'm stopping there. This one I have never been to before but I can tell you I'm stopping there every time from now. Great service and fantastic sushi. Especially the sweet Chile chicken on rice. Perfect."

"Not bad for a small sushi shop. Excellent wide range of selection. The chicken and prawn taste like KFC but crispier. The chicken Katsu has the best crunch shortly followed after a classic prawn. I recommend the sweet chilli or mayo chicken to pick from the store if you’re not into the crispy flavour but more of a tang taste. Personally I lived in Matamata, they always have been proactive and ready to serve your food on the counter with a caring attitude. I understand about the bad comments of the Ramyun dish and the rice being slightly dry. I apologise, but don’t the one bad experience determine a restaurant’s performance. Because I know expectations are high for them but looking at the majority of comments most them had great comments. So if you do have bad experience at Sen sushi, give them a second shot because they are worth it."

"Fresh and tasty sushi for a quick stop at Matamata! The person serving us the sushi was very patient considering we had a group of 6 and had to pay individually or in small groups. Wish we could’ve stayed longer to try out more of their amazing sushi!"
