Kushiro - Melbourne
Nestled in a 100-year-old heritage building in Fitzroy, Kushiro blends historic charm with modern culinary artistry. Inspired by Melbourne's vibrant laneway dining and street art culture, the restaurant features a beautiful bar, Japanese-inspired lamps, chandeliers, and a striking graffiti wall depicting a fishing village in Hokkaido.

Kushiro's menu combines traditional Japanese techniques with contemporary flavors, offering standout dishes like Scampi Tartare, Cured Salmon, Chef Po’s Char Siu, Slow Roasted Short Rib, Confit Duck, and Tofu Panna Cotta. Patrons can also enjoy Kushiro's exclusive brand of sake, crafted in Japan.

Kushiro enriches Melbourne's diverse culinary scene with its unique offerings and vibrant atmosphere.

I brought my girlfriend here for her Birthday and he had a wonderful night. The food was amazing, the cocktails were amazing and the service was some of the best I’ve ever had. They were great with allergies, explained the cocktails, had a surprise ice cream and photo for my girlfriend’s birthday. It was one of my favourite experiences eating out. The place was ambient, not too loud and felt cosy! We will definitely be back there soon!
