AKIBA

AKIBA is a bar & restaurant for the people, focusing on Australia's position in the Asia Pacific.

At AKIBA, we’re inspired by the informal and exciting atmosphere of great food halls and dining rooms throughout the East-Asia region. The food showcases the many styles of Asian barbecue, raw bar and modern day Dim Sum, and demonstrates a dazzling array of fresh flavours. Cooked over live fuel of wood and charcoal, AKIBA makes the most of our local produce. It’s a delight for fans of the great tr

adition of barbecue while staying true to fresh and light Asian flavours. Our unique menu complements the exotic cocktail and drinks list. It’s the perfect match for a fun, fast paced dining experience that is not to be missed!

Things are getting pretty saucy at the raw bar. Take your pick from tuna tartare with ginger ponzu and jalapeño mayo, kingfish with coconut and nam jim, Korean beef tartare loaded with chilli crunch and hoisin kewpie, or ocean trout with brown butter, yuzu and dashi.

Go on. Get the pint.
Ice cold Asahi on tap, best paired with dumplings, buns, raw bar, fried chicken… shall we go on?

Tofu has suffered years of reputational damage at the hands of the health food industry. We’re fixing that by frying it until golden, sending it swimming in savoury broth and piling on the nori, daikon and togarashi.

The softest launch of the year.

Fried chicken, pork belly, tempura prawn, pulled beef and vegan eggplant, all tucked into pillowy buns.
Officially hard launching our soft spot for these.

Our LUXE Nights menu is an $88 nine-dish banquet, stacked with AKIBA favourites and the best of the best from across the menu.

Think tuna tartare with ginger ponzu and nori salt, kingfish with coconut and nam jim, Korean beef tartare with chilli crunch, Balmain bug buns, sweet and sticky squid, miso butter barramundi, Kobe skirt and something chocolatey, gold and ridiculously delicious to finish.

One plate each? You must be new here. The AKIBA way is to load it with fluffy bao, chilli-slicked dumplings, fresh raw plates and something smoky straight off the charcoal.

Three dumplings. Three very different reasons to order another round.

Vegan Umami with chilli crunch. Prawn & Chicken with ginger and black vinegar. Pork & Chicken with truffled Szechuan and chilli crunch.

Pick a favourite, or do the sensible thing and get all three for the table 🥟🥢

Fresh flavours aren't just reserved for the kitchen.

Bright, punchy and built to hold their own alongside the food. That's how we like our cocktails at AKIBA ⚡

Some flavours can only come from cooking over live fire.

Wood, charcoal and quality local produce come together across a menu built for sharing, with fresh, vibrant Asian flavours in every dish.
