The Roe Australia (formerly known as Uniboomboom) is a restaurant in Melbourne that specializes in using fresh sea urchin as the core ingredient for their dishes, along with other premium seafood. They are known for their signature dish, the sea urchin dumpling, which provides a unique dining experience. The restaurant also serves as a gallery where diners can learn about sea urchins and their context in Australia. The sea urchin population has grown significantly in recent years, posing a threat to kelp forests, and The Roe Australia’s customers have helped by eating 10 metric tonnes of sea urchin per year from the eastern coast of Victoria, New South Wales, and Tasmania.

Incredible uni experience at The Roe+ Australia! The quality of seafood here is outstanding, and you can really taste the freshness in every dish. The Legendary Ultimate Explosive Uni Rice Bowl was a standout—creamy, rich, and packed with flavor. I also loved the Golden Uni Pasta, which had the perfect balance of umami and silkiness. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, making great recommendations and ensuring a great dining experience. If you love sea urchin or just want to try something special, this place is a must-visit. Can’t wait to come back!

Very disappointing. Used to be our go to restaurant for uni cravings. Everything changed since the Roe+, food not as good as before and price higher now. The service is very disorganized, had to ask 3 waiters for two pair of chopsticks and some soy sauce. Asked 2 waiters for a takeaway box. Overall experience, really bad…

The customer service was very awful, we stranded the door and nobody was greeting us, four waiters saw us but ignored us, the experience was terrible. But food was good actually.
