About the restaurant
It's perfect for
a group dinner that feels like a proper event rather than just a meal out
You need to try
try the miso black cod with dashi beurre blanc and herb oil
Look out for
the dedicated Sake Room, offering guided tastings that go well beyond the usual pour
Descend beneath St. George's Terrace, and you'll find one of Perth's most exciting dining rooms, a dark, neon-lit subterranean izakaya with the energy of a Tokyo basement bar. The share-style menu from the Sesh Mafia group blends Japanese technique with modern fusion flair, from wagyu beef gyoza and miso black cod to jumbo chicken katsu with golden curry butter and hamachi with charred pink grapefruit. The sake list is serious, the cocktails are inventive, and the Sugar Papi banquet at $149 per person covers all bases.
