Shou Sumiyaki Japanese Restaurant, 160 Little Bourke Street, Melbourne (2026)

30/05/2026

Evercreamy beef salad. Yes, it's as good as it sounds.

Silky wagyu. Velvety Japanese dressing. A creamy salad so smooth and rich you'll forget salad can even taste like this. The beef melts. The dressing hugs. Every single bite feels like a little hug for your soul.

At Shou Sumiyaki, we took something simple and made it unforgettable.

One bowl. One spoon. One very happy you.

Come get creamy.

Smooth. Creamy. Unexpected.

This isn't your average tartar. This is silky wagyu beef, chopped so fine it almost melts before you even eat it. Topped with a rich, creamy Japanese-style salad that adds the perfect cool, tangy contrast – think velvet meets crunch with a little bit of magic in between.

Mix it all together. Scoop it up. Close your eyes for a second.

Yes. That's the spot.

At Shou Sumiyaki, we make tartar that even people who "don't do raw meat" fall in love with. Trust us on this one.

Come find your new obsession.

This is wagyu tartar the way it should be done. Silky, hand-chopped raw meat, glossy with a golden egg yolk right in the middle. You mix it yourself – watching the yolk break and coat every single piece. Then you scoop it onto a light, crispy cracker that shatters with every bite.

Creamy. Crunchy. Buttery. Bright.

One bite and you'll understand why raw beef lovers lose their minds over this.

Come on. Live a little. Your cracker is waiting.

Let's be real. This is the good stuff.

Wagyu marble beef. Those beautiful white veins of fat running through tender pink meat. At Shou Sumiyaki, we don't just serve it – we treat it like the treasure it is. One touch of the charcoal grill, and magic happens. The fat melts. The surface crackles. And that first bite? Pure, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth decadence.

No fancy tricks. No hiding behind sauces. Just incredible beef, grilled exactly how it should be.

Close your eyes. Take a bite. You've earned this.

Bring someone you really like – or keep it all for yourself. No judgement either way.

Delicate. Silky. Surprisingly powerful.

Thin noodles don't get enough love – but at Shou Sumiyaki, we think they're the quiet heroes of the noodle world. Slender, elegant, and just strong enough to carry every drop of broth without getting lost.

Slurp them in a light shoyu broth. Twirl them around your chopsticks with a little chili oil. Or keep it classic with nothing but scallions and a soft-poached egg.

Sometimes less really is more.

Come try the noodle that proves it.

Okay, this tempura? Actually divine.

Light as a feather. Crispy as a perfect autumn leaf. And somehow not greasy at all – we don't know how we do it either (okay, fine, it's the batter, the oil, and a lot of practice).

At Shou Sumiyaki, our tempura is the kind of golden, crackly magic that makes you close your eyes after the first bite. Prawns, veggies, maybe a sneaky piece of fish – all dipped, fried, and served while they're still singing hot.

Pair it with a little dipping salt or tentsuyu sauce. Or don't. It's that good on its own.

Honestly? It's a little bit heavenly.

Come taste what we mean.

Big bowl. Big noodles. Big energy.

Some days you just want to disappear into a giant bowl of carbs – and we fully support that. At Shou Sumiyaki, our large noodles are thick, chewy, and impossibly satisfying. The kind of noodles that demand a loud slurp. The kind that make you forget about your to-do list.

Swirling in a rich, savory broth that hugs every strand. Topped simply so the noodles can shine.

Grab your chopsticks. Get a good grip. And dive in.

No judgement here. Just really, really good noodles.

Some nights just ask for ramen. The good kind.

Not the instant stuff. Not the sad office lunch. We're talking about slow-simmered broth that's been working away for hours – rich, silky, and packed with umami. Topped with tender chashu that falls apart at the touch, a perfectly jammy egg, and noodles that actually taste like someone cared.

At Shou Sumiyaki, we make ramen like it's meant to be made. With patience. With heart. With a little bit of obsession.

Pull up a seat. Let the steam hit your face. And take that first slurp.

You'll know immediately. This is the real thing.

Crispy + slurpy = happy.

Let's be honest – sometimes you want the crunch and the comfort in one meal. That's tempura and big noodles. Light, crackly prawn and veggie tempura on one side. Thick, bouncy udon-style noodles in a warm broth on the other.

Dip. Twirl. Slurp. Repeat.

It's simple. It's delicious. And it's waiting for you at Shou Sumiyaki.

Come get cozy with a bowl.

Kanpai.

That first clink of ceramic. The cold sip of junmai trickling down. A quiet "kanpai" shared between bites of charcoal-kissed meat.

At Shou Sumiyaki, we pour sake like we grill—with intention. From velvety sweet potato shochu to small-batch nihonshu you won't find down the street. Pair it with skewers still whispering smoke.

No loud music. No rushed tables. Just fire, glass, and Melbourne's most honest toast.

Come for the yakitori. Stay for the second pour.

Over binchotan white charcoal, patience meets precision.

At Shou Sumiyaki, yakitori isn't fast food—it's fire craft. Tender chicken thigh, crisp scallion, and the faint whisper of smoke clinging to every bite. Some skewers brushed with tare (aged like secrets). Others seasoned simply with sea salt to let the charcoal speak.

This is how Tokyo grills after dark. And you'll find it here, in Melbourne.

Gather your table. Order the tasting set. Taste the ember.

This isn't just meat. It's an art form.

At Shou Sumiyaki, we source only the most exquisite cuts—where perfect marbling meets the authentic flames of Japanese charcoal grilling. Watch as each slice transforms into a smoky, buttery, melt-on-your-tongue masterpiece.

You don't just eat here. You experience Kyoto-inspired omakase right in the heart of Melbourne.

Reserve your seat at the grill.
