It’s called: Goro’s

Who’s the cook/bartender?

Our sake and cocktail menu was designed by group bars manager Jeremy Shipley and the food menu designed by Cameron Campbell.

Eye candy:

The interior of Goro’s is filled with items collected from exotic world travels – family photos, souvenirs and a mish-mash of Japanese paraphernalia. The vibe is casual, busy, fun and eccentric. Television screens with Iron Chef, baseball and the incredible game show that brought Goro to Sydney are on repeat – there’s always something to watch.

Flavours:

At Goro’s, booze and good times are the priorities. From Japanese sake to cocktails with a twist, Goro’s offers drinks that won’t be found anywhere else. When it comes to food, Goro does not design his food to be shared. The menu features traditional Japanese street food such as yakitori, karaage, gyoza and two-minute Ramen, all delivered in small, ready-to-eat servings – no cutting or sharing involved. Goro calls it “selfish food”. For lunchtime visitors, bento boxes, hand rolls and donburi of the day are also available.

Something to start with:

Choose one of our five yakitori options – fish cakes, chicken thigh, pork belly, ox fillet and chicken ball.

The main course:

Fried ‘crab’ sandwich, wakame, tobiko.

Room for dessert?

Mango mochi.

Care for a drink?

Besides the obvious choice of one of our 12 types of sake, our Unusual Negroni and Sake-tini are crowd favourite cocktails.

Sounds?

Vinyl DJs on Friday and Saturday from 7pm.

Make us drool:

This is the place to let your hair down and is a much-needed injection of all things wacky and wonderful.Have some Japanese street food, wash it down with a shot of sake and enjoy one of the many spaces and experiences that make up Goro’s.

The bill comes to:

Nothing on the menu is over $20.
