Dinner Menu

Come in for dinner and treat yourself

“Out of the Japanese restaurants all over the world I visited,
SHOYA is amazingly authentic and makes me feel like being at home.

It's no inferior to any of those competitive restaurants even if SHOYA stands among the quality restaurants in central Tokyo…”

These are some of the compliments the Iron Chef Kandagawa told us during his short visit to Melbourne for TV shooting. He left us with happy smile saying “See you soon…”

Then, we saw him 4 nights in a row dinning
at various sections of our restaurant:
BBQ, HORIGOTATSU traditional seating, sushi counter,
and sushi counter again.

Shortly after his return to Japan, we received a very
beautiful painting with nice wording:
“Warm hearted person gathers warm hearted people.”

WELCOME TO SHOYA

Enjoy the dining experience…

Hope this warm hearted person enjoy every dish created by another warm hearted master-owner-chef Shigeo Nonaka, who carefully selects all the ingredients including 500 days grain fed Wagyu beef, black hair pork, free range chicken, live seafood, and also exclusive rice wine from all over Japan.

All the stocks used here are made from scratch using bonito flakes, kelp, mushrooms, etc… without any conventional seasonings nor MSG. Should you have any allergic reactions or requests to any of the ingredients we use, please notify our staff prior to ordering. We shall do our best to cater your needs.

Make yourself at home in SHOYA…
