MB8+ Kiwami wagyu, sourced from Stockyard on the Darling Downs. The ribeye is seared hard, brushed with a smoked wagyu fat glaze, then set against braised shiitake and a chilli soy that leans savoury, sharp and slightly sweet. Underneath, an umami oroshi, a Japanese-style grated dressing of apple, onion and ginger, cuts through the richness with acidity and lift. Crispy taro over the top for texture.

The room holds back, then opens at the counter. An island set within near-total black. The walls, ceiling, seating are all pulled down so the focus sits on the work itself. This is a deliberate Japanese approach to dining design: reduce the field, sharpen the point of attention. You’re not looking at a restaurant, you’re looking into it, at the knife work, the pass, the heat. Everything else stays quiet.

Low light, black timber, and two crystal chandeliers suspended almost out of place. Gloss against matte, light against absorbent black, formality held inside a space that’s otherwise stripped back.

Bay Bug Roll. Bay bug tempura, asparagus, yuzu mayo, black tobiko.⁠
Tempura batter kept light and crisp. We then wrap with asparagus, cucumber and negi, Japanese spring onion.⁠ Finished with black tobiko, flying fish roe for texture, and yuzu mayo, a sharp, aromatic citrus folded through the richness. Pick it up, cut through the crunch, then the soft centre follows.

The dining room pulled low and dark, tables set beneath the chandelier. ⁠
Faces lit, surroundings receding, the room built to hold focus at the table rather than the perimeter.

At the heart of the room, the raw bar anchors the experience. Fish is broken down in full view, each cut deliberate, sushi prepared piece by piece.

Pork cutlets from Bangalow, moisture-infused so they're tender from the start. They’re panko crumb, fried to medium blushing centre, rested and sliced. We serve ours with smoked housemade tonkatsu, karashi carrot mustard, sesame.

Hidden in Fortitude Valley, hôntô hums with low light and dark timber. A space built for shared meals and the kind of drinks that linger as long as conversation. Japanese classics, contemporary interpretations, local ingredients.

A daiquiri reimagined, twisting like its namesake, the Sidewinder made here by Torii. Shochu infused with sencha gives a clean Japanese base, lifted with elderflower, crisp snow pea, and bright lime.
