On the a la carte menu, you will find appetizers, salads, sashimi, sushi, kushiyaki, yakimono (grilled), agemono (fried), nabe/suimono, menrui (noodles), donburi as well as set meals, with prices starting from RM28.
To start, we had two of the restaurant's signature (and bestselling) dishes, the Mentai tamago (RM12) and Harumi dobin mushi (RM18). The former is a Japanese-style rolled omelette topped with torched mayo mentaiko - simple but very tasty.
The Harumi dobin mushi aka Japanese teapot soup, is made using superior clear dashi broth along with prawn, chicken, and maitake mushroom.
The butakushi (RM6 per stick), skewered pork belly and spring onion charcoal grilled with salt was delish. Other selection for kushiyaki here include hotate bacon, Wagyu, negima (chicken thigh), tebanaka (chicken wings), crispy chicken skin, gizzards, heart, and liver.
One of the highlights of our meal here was the Sashimi moriawase (RM186), which comes with nama hotate (fresh diver scallops), amaebi, ikura, and three types of airflown sashimi (during our visit, it was tuna, salmon belly and salmon). Fresh and thickly sliced, totally satisfying.
Mentai fans can also indulge in the Mentai king prawn (RM32), grilled king prawn with half broiled cod roe. Sweet and juicy.
Tempura moriawase (RM20) - assorted prawn and vegetable tempura (sweet potato, ladies finger, brinjal, shitake, enoki) in a lovely, light crisp batter.
We enjoyed the rather unusual Crispy sushi roll (RM30) with asparagus, salmon and ebiko, which is then coated in panko and deep fried, giving it a lovely crisp exterior.
They also offer a variety of Tokyo spaghetti. Our pick was the Creamy crab and ebiko spaghetti (RM28) which comes with copious amounts of crab meat and ebiko with an onsen tamago for a rich, creamy finish.
Harumi 23 is also well-known for their Japanese desserts such as signature honeycomb, souffle pancake, Shibuya dessert toast, furikake toast, kakigori, jelly, mochi and ice cream.
End your meal with the rich, sinful Chocolate Rocher Shibuya toast (RM19.90) with chocolate and vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. The Matcha kakigori (RM25.90) is also superb, we love the light texture of the shaved ice topped with the quality matcha sauce and matcha ice cream, served with mochi and red bean paste.
