Hiramasa Kingfish
Sliced to order
Ask what to order first at the Saké counter and the answer has remained the same since opening: hiramasa kingfish.
Each order is sliced fresh, then finished simply with ponzu, lime and jalapeño. Together, they let the texture and flavour of the fresh fish speak for itself.
See why it remains the counter favourite. Reserve your table via link in bio.

Molten Valrhona Chocolate Fondant
Saké’s chocolate fondant pairs Valrhona chocolate with chocolate soil and vanilla ice cream, finished with Suntory whisky at the table.
Cut through the sponge and the chocolatey centre oozes onto the plate, the defining detail of a dessert first created by French chef Michel Bras in 1981.
Alongside it, Heiwa Shuzo ‘Furu-Tsuru-Ume’ 10-year-old umeshu brings notes of dried fruit and caramel to the chocolate.
Save your final course for the fondant. Reserve your table via link in bio.

Cocktail
Pink Blossom
A longstanding Saké favourite, the Pink Blossom brings Choya umeshu together with fresh strawberry, cranberry, passionfruit and lime. Sweet, tart and unmistakably pink, it has remained our most frequently requested cocktail for years.

Umeshu
Often translated as plum, ume is closer to an apricot: fragrant, intensely tart and rarely eaten straight from the tree.
To make umeshu, unripe ume is layered with sugar, covered in spirit and left to steep for at least six months. Time softens its sharp acidity into something sweet, aromatic and gently sour.
At Saké, enjoy it over ice, lengthened into a spritz or served with hot water on a cold day.

The experience remains distinctly Saké, with set menus chosen for the table, sake selected to accompany them and service centred entirely around your occasion.

New this season: nasu dengaku
Thick-cut eggplant, grilled slowly until the centre is soft and silky. It is coated in sweetened miso, then returned to the heat until the glaze bubbles, blisters and catches at the edges.
Nasu means eggplant. Dengaku takes its name from a Heian-period dance: skewered tofu cooking over coals was thought to resemble performers balancing on stilts.
Add our take on eggplant to your next order. Reserve your table via link in bio.

Yukari salt
Yukari salt gets its deep-purple colour from red shiso leaves, cured with salt and plum vinegar before being dried and crushed.
In Japan, yukari is traditionally sprinkled over rice or folded through onigiri. It is salty, tart and intensely herbal, with notes that sit somewhere between basil, mint and anise.
At Saké, we use it to rim the Hattori Hanzo, bringing a savoury edge to yuzu, cucumber, elderflower and jalapeño.

Our Osaka-inspired Hattori Hanzo brings together Bombay Sapphire gin, yuzushu, elderflower, cucumber and jalapeño, finished with a savoury yukari rim.
Named after the legendary Sengoku-era samurai, it is clean, focused and carrying just enough heat beneath the surface.
Order it alongside sushi and sashimi. Reserve via link in bio.

“One of the best places in Sydney to drink sake”
In its newly updated guide to Saké The Rocks, Broadsheet finds a menu that “balances washoku with modern elements”.
There are nori crisps topped with tuna and kingfish, Cape Grim short rib, and Glacier 51 toothfish wrapped in banana leaf. Alongside them: more than 40 varieties of sake, umeshu and seafood-friendly wines.
It’s a lot to choose from, but as Broadsheet notes, our “attentive staff are never far away”. Tell them what you enjoy and let them guide the next pour.
