Sushi Oe

Sushi Oe is a bite-sized Japanese restaurant in Cammeray with an offering that’s anything but small. Chef Toshihiko Oe welcomes six guests each night for his abundant omakase menu. Always booked out a month in advance, the experience sees you relinquishing all decisions to chef Oe, but you can be assured a delicious, fish-heavy experience. To secure a booking you’ll want to watch the Sushi Oe Instagram page to find out when the next month’s slots become available and text your preferred dates, name and the number of people in your party to 0451 970 984, then cross everything. If you’re lucky enough to score a spot (they’ve been known to have over 840 applications for one month) the experience will set you back $230 per person.

The tiny restaurant features an open kitchen where Chef Oe works his magic right before your eyes. With a pared-back, modern Japanese aesthetic featuring lots of wood and muted colours, Sushi Oe makes for the perfect date night location if you don’t mind sharing the spotlight with an extremely talented Japanese chef.
