Best Asian Food Restaurants in Lake Macquarie

"Sitting pretty on the harbour’s edge, Nagisa is where fresh produce, traditional Japanese culture and modern techniques coincide, to deliver an unforgettable dining experience. Serving up sashimi, sushi and noodles, Nagisa’s impeccably designed restaurant, with draped linen and pendant lighting, spills out onto an alfresco setting which comes alive on balmy nights. For thrill seekers, take a seat at the teppanyaki bar, and be mesmerised by the talented chefs and intoxicating aromas of sizzling meats and fresh seafood."

"Whether you’re looking for fresh sushi or enjoy the theatre of teppanyaki cooking, Nagisa is a hidden gem for lovers of Asian food. Next to special Japanese beer, you get all kinds of exotic dishes. Prepare yourself for hot soup, spicy meat and fruity deserts."

"A pure vegetarian and vegan café managed and run by volunteers. Their various activities make up the branches of the Bhakti Tree – pure vegetarian and vegan food at their café in Mayfield or at University of Newcastle through the student vegetarian club, yoga, kirtan (mantra-meditation), philosophy discussions, cooking classes, catering etc. A welcoming community, a place to share a meal and make friends!"

"100% vegan and cruelty free café, located in the quiet streets of Minmi. They’ve gained a pretty dedicated following since opening in March 2016, and you’ll understand why when you taste their food/drinks. They even donate 100% of their tips to the heroes over at Sea Shepherd."

"South of the city centre, this magnificent, wide stretch of sand has excellent surfing conditions and is the home strand of the legendary Aussie surfer Mark Richards. At the southern end is a huge sea pool."
