Disuko

Located in Melbourne

1 Recommendation

DISUKO, cued from Tokyo 1980, split into elements that define the time. Open-air dining, shared izakaya, omakase for occasion, music always. Refound on Melbourne’s city skyline, DISUKO brings those moments forward in a lively and layered setting. Our nomikai, the Terracotta Roof, offers after-hours respite and weekend ease, the izakaya lounge gathers friends over plates made to share, and omakase offers pause for a theatrical food occasion.
