The 12 Best Canberra CBD,ACT Japanese Restaurants
"It’s one of those rare places that’s as comfortable for breakfast as it is for midnight cocktails, and you never EVER think you’re sitting in a hotel foyer. There are nooks to hide away in, a fire to warm yourself next to, and the elegant salon right next door, should you decide to head in for something more substantial. The great thing about Monster isn’t Sean McConnell’s inventive cuisine (although it’s amazing), or the carefully crafted cocktails and interesting wine list; it’s that this is a place that transcends generations."
"Wandering through the ground floor of Ovolo Nishi on Edinburgh Avenue in Canberra, Monster Kitchen & Bar is preoccupied with serving local and seasonal produce prepared for sharing. Spread across four..."
"All Alpine ski lodge in decor, Hippo Co is one of city’s leading bars with a commitment to the craft of making a serious drink. There’s a great collection of whiskey and scotches, plus a balcony to take in the scene over Garema Place in Civic. There are plenty of spots for a chat and conversation-starter objects (awhole pack of taxidermic critters, framed vintage prints and retro light fittings, to name a few) about the room if you get stuck for topics."
"This is one of Australia’s longest-running and most sought out nightclub. The Hippo Co boasts a collection of over 200 choices of Whiskey. It is an amazing location to chat, share a couple of drinks and listen to some of the best Jazz music in Australia."
"One of the best night clubs in Canberra is Hippo Co, which is a cool bar with light lightening. The place offers live blues music every Monday and live jazz every Wednesday. The night bar has a list of fantastic cocktails and whiskeys."
"One of Canberra’s newest bars, Amici is already a gorgeous spot to relax, drink and dine, but you can seriously upgrade your brunch or lunch with bottomless mimosas. Choose whatever you’d like from the menu, and you can add the bottomless mimosas, with fluffy orange juice, for $35 per person. The deal is available any day, but you need a minimum of four guests, and get a max 2 hour package."

"This spacious and popular restaurant is tucked away at the back of the Canberra Centre. CBD Dumpling House has built a reputation for generous portions, and of course, tasty dumplings. The kitchen is an integral part of the dining experience – open both sides so you can watch the chefs hard at work creating your dinner."
"Kid’s meals are only $15 each at the First Edition Restaurant And Bar, with plenty of classic options to leave everyone feeling full and satisfied. The menu includes cheeseburgers, chicken nuggets, grilled fish, ham and pineapple pizza, spaghetti bolognese, and toasted sandwiches. Not to mention, the meal also comes with either vegetables or salad, a drink, and two scoops of ice cream to finish."
"Snappy and modern with a focal square bar that takes pride of place in the centre of the room, Parlour Wine Room has emerged anew. Packed with tables and cosy nooks with couches perfect for hiding away from the cool of winter, it’s on Parlour’s terrace that you’ll be wanting a seat this summer as you overlook the evolving precinct of NewActon with a signature cocktail in hand."

Their philosophy is to combine the precision and artfulness of Japanese culinary traditions with the vibrant energy of modern Australian dining to create unique and exciting dishes.
