Before you head over

Practical advice on ordering timelines, dining tiers, and group accommodations.

  • Pace Your Ordering Window

    The all-you-can-eat session runs for 90 minutes with ordering cut off after the first 60 minutes, and the digital tablet enforces reorder intervals on identical cuts. Submit your primary meat orders early to maximize your dining window.

  • Select Between Premium Buffet and À La Carte

    If you want unlimited access to premium wagyu cuts and fresh sashimi, choose the premium buffet tier. The restaurant also provides an à la carte option if you prefer focusing on specific cuts without buffet time constraints.

  • Transit Access and Private Room Booking

    Situated just a one-minute walk from Burwood train station with surrounding street parking, the restaurant is easily accessible by public transit or car. Families dining with small children can also take advantage of private dining rooms.
