Two ways to experience the same fish.

Aburi — flame-kissed, the surface caramelised, the flavour deepened.
Nigiri — clean, precise, the ingredient at its most honest.

Neither is better. Both are just as good. Made fresh daily.

Available on the KOI Bar menu as well as in the restaurant throughout the day.

LOUIS XIII Cognac · Available only at KOI Bar

Recently, we hosted an exclusive and intimate launch to mark the occasion. A cognac over a century in the making, blended from up to 1,200 individual eaux-de-vie and aged in Limousin oak for over 100 years. Presented with white gloves, as the ritual demands.

Proudly, the only bar north of Townsville to offer this incredible spirit.

This is not something you rush. It's an experience.
Sit, sip and enjoy.

Wine worth staying for.

Carefully chosen to sit alongside a curated menu of bar snacks made for sharing, grazing, and settling in after a long day.

Whether you're after something crisp and cool or a glass that earns its weight, our team will find the right pour for the moment.

Walk in. Wind down.

Fresh, refined, and full of flavour 🤌🏻🥢

Our Cold Bites highlight some of the finest produce on the menu. Carefully selected ingredients like premium seafood and top-quality cuts are paired with bold Asian-fusion flavours, designed to enhance rather than overpower. Each dish balances texture, freshness and precision, allowing the cool proteins to speak for themselves.

Clean, vibrant and made to share, it’s a perfect way to start the KOI experience.
