- RRowenaMelbourne •2 reviews5.0Dined on 8 Feb 2025I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kishiro with friends, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience! The cocktails were exceptional, perfectly crafted and refreshing. Each sip was a delightful start to our meal. As for the food, it was nothing short of amazing. The kingfish sashimi was a standout dish; it was incredibly fresh and the dumplings paired beautifully with the chili oil sauce, which added just the right amount of kick. Every bite was a burst of flavor that left us wanting more. The mains were equally impressive. They were not only delicious but also very filling, ensuring that we left the restaurant completely satisfied. We truly enjoyed everything we ordered, and each dish showcased the skill and creativity of the chefs. Overall, Kishiro exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to enjoy fantastic Japanese cuisine in a vibrant atmosphere. I can't wait to return and try more of their offerings!More infoKushiro Fusion CuisinePrice: Expensive• Fusion / Eclectic• Fitzroy•4.7
