Yakikami’s Luxe A5 Kobe Wagyu Burger Omakase
When you’re torn between omakase and a cheeseburger, Yakikami steps in with the ultimate solution: a premium A5 Kobe Wagyu Burger Omakase experience.
As one of only two Australian restaurants certified to serve Kobe beef, Yakikami offers a rare indulgence, and the A5 Kobe Wagyu Burger Omakase is nothing short of spectacular. For $150, this eight-course menu is a masterclass in flavour, starring the Wagyu Burger—a decadent bite topped with wasabi mayonnaise, house-made YK sauce, and an indulgent medamayaki egg. If you’re in the mood to go all out, you can even upgrade to Josper-grilled Wagyu steak with truffle or wild mushroom butter.
The rest of the meal is a curated journey through delicate yet powerful flavours. Start with fresh fish carpaccio with yuzu miso, and move through dishes like Wagyu yukke with bubble soy and crispy gnocchi, or salmon on shokupan topped with ikura. Everything is prepared with precise techniques honed by Michelin-starred chef Hirokazu Sasaki, ensuring each bite is an experience.
Yakikami’s intimate 10-seater Chef’s Table, tucked away in the Josper Room, elevates the omakase experience to an art form. Here, you’re not just eating—you're witnessing culinary craftsmanship, as each dish is grilled to perfection in front of you, cooked over binchōtan charcoal or seared on the high-heat Josper oven.
The combination of Japan’s finest Kobe and Omi beef with Australia’s own Blackmore/Sher M9+ Wagyu delivers an umami bomb in every bite, making it a must-try for wagyu lovers and those seeking a sophisticated yet fun dining experience.
