How we read reviews →Moody South Yarra Japanese with binchotan yakitori, wagyu omakase and a popular $35 hamburg lunch.
Dark, sleek and luxe-but-relaxed: a mirrored-ceiling bar, private curtained booths and a counter facing the binchotan grill. Intimate and moody, with a polished night-out feel.
Binchotan charcoal robata and yakitori grill, wagyu and Kobe beef, private curtained booths, chef's counter, omakase with wine or sake pairing, bag boxes at seats and Japanese-speaking staff.
Yakitori, robatayaki and wagyu techniques in a Japanese-led room; visitors from Japan say it feels like a good yakitori bar back home.
Premium pricing: omakase and wagyu sets run roughly $150 to $195 per person, and a good share of reviewers feel value has slipped. The $35 hikiniku lunch is the best-value way in.
