Casual, authentic and proudly local. WAZEN opened early May 2014 in West Burleigh. Our chef owner is very particular about the ingredients he serves his customers and as
such, uses free range chicken, advocates no MSG, serves gluten free dishes and also
provides vegetarian dishes. We serve food of the highest quality and our dishes have
been paired together with an original sauce created by the Ch

Sake, Japanese draft beer and organic wine. Wazen, the place to dine!

🍃 Back in stock at WAZEN 🍃

We’re excited to welcome back
premium Japanese green tea from ISSEI CHAEN in Gifu, Japan.

Our much-loved
🍵 Sencha
🔥 Hojicha
are now available again for purchase.

What makes this tea truly special is that it is grown with an incredibly natural approach.

In Japan, producing pesticide-free tea is considered very rare and difficult, as tea plants are highly sensitive to insects and disease.
That’s why teas like these are so highly valued.

ISSEI CHAEN carefully grows their tea surrounded by the clean air and rich nature of the Hida region in Gifu Prefecture.
The result is a tea with a pure aroma, gentle flavour, and a clean finish you can truly taste.

🍵 Sencha
Fresh, smooth and naturally rich in flavour.
Perfect during or after meals.

🔥 Hojicha
Roasted, nutty and incredibly comforting.
Low bitterness and perfect for relaxing.

This is not mass-produced tea.
It’s authentic Japanese tea made with care, tradition and respect for nature.

Available now at WAZEN.
Limited stock — don’t miss out 🍃

Not sure which sake to choose? 🍶

At WAZEN, we offer a carefully curated selection of Japanese sake from across Japan.

From light and fruity, to dry and crisp, creamy nigori, and refreshing sparkling options — there’s something for everyone.

It’s not easy to find a place where you can enjoy such a wide range of sake.

Sake pairs beautifully with our dishes, especially fresh sashimi and sushi, bringing out the best flavours of both the food and the drink.

We also serve sake in beautiful Tsugaru Vidro glassware and premium tin cups, so you can experience how the flavour changes with each sip.

You can also enjoy sake at different temperatures — chilled, room temperature, or warm — each revealing a unique character.

Our head chef HIROTO, who has extensive knowledge of sake, is here to help you find the perfect match for your taste and your meal.

Whether you’re new to sake or already a fan,
come and discover your favourite at WAZEN ✨
