Kokumai's Barangaroo restaurant, whose name means black rice in Japanese, offers an elevated Japanese dining experience distinct from a traditional sushi bar, combining a premium sushi bar with a five-seat omakase counter. An entrancing sushi train runs past the tables, delivering rolls such as tuna avocado, spanner crab and prawn alongside a wide range of nigiri including kingfish, tuna, salmon and eel, letting guests simply grab what catches their eye as it goes by. For something more considered, the omakase bar presents an ultimate culinary adventure with the head chef, using the freshest seasonal ingredients paired with a curated selection of sake and wines. A special order menu extends the offering further, with dishes ranging from delicate, umami-rich miso toothfish to BBQ eel and crispy garlic corn ribs. Located opposite the food hall in Barangaroo, Kokumai's fun, high-quality approach to sushi has made it a genuine standout among the precinct's dining options.
