Refined simplicity meets bold Japanese flavours.
Sydney’s Japanese dining scene has a new heavyweight with the arrival of IKI Dining in Potts Point. Helmed by Michelin-starred Chef Masahiko Yomoda and backed by restaurateur Eddy Lee, this new venue blends the Japanese philosophy of “IKI”, refined simplicity and effortless charm.
Offering a dual dining concept, guests can choose from Ramen by IKI, with soulful broths simmered for 48 hours, or IKI Izakaya, a cosy space serving premium small plates and sake. With an interior inspired by Tokyo laneways, a cocktail program led by award-winning bartender Sam Liao, and a menu brimming with precision and creativity, IKI Dining sets a new benchmark for Japanese casual dining in Sydney.
