Wagyu steak, grilled simply and served hot.
Choose M9+ for that clean, juicy bite, or go A5 when you want it extra rich.
Then pick your mood from our 7 homemade sauces and make it yours.
Order it Ă la carte, or build it into a set with rice, salad and miso soup.
Either way, it’s a very good idea. 🥩🔥

Teppan Wagyu Fried Rice.
Cooked hot on the teppan, grains picking up flavour as they go.
Chopped wagyu folded through, rich but never heavy.
It’s simple, loud in the right way, and exactly why we love cooking on the grill.
One of those plates that doesn’t need explaining: you’ll get it on the first bite.

What people say
Japanese restaurants are renowned for their emphasis on fresh ingredients, meticulous preparation, and a unique dining experience that often combines culinary artistry with interactive elements. At Nikuland on Lonsdale Street, this tradition is taken to new heights with an exciting blend of flavors and hands-on dining.
One of the standout offerings at Nikuland is the opportunity to sizzle your own 100% Wagyu hamburger steak. This interactive experience not only allows diners to engage with their meal but also ensures that each bite is cooked to perfection according to personal preference. The joy of grilling your own meat adds a fun twist to the dining experience, making it perfect for gatherings with friends or family.
For those seeking something truly indulgent, the Black Truffle Wagyu Katsu is a must-try. Each slice of premium Wagyu is expertly seared and coated in a delicate charcoal crust that provides a satisfying crunch while preserving the rich umami flavor of the meat. Paired with house-made truffle paste—a luxurious blend of earthy black truffle and shiitake mushrooms—this dish exemplifies Nikuland's commitment to quality and depth of flavor.
To complement these delicious dishes, guests can enjoy refreshing beverages like the Basil Yuzu highball. This vibrant drink combines zesty yuzu, fresh basil, smooth whiskey, and crisp soda for a bright and aromatic sip that perfectly balances the richness of the grilled meats.
And don’t forget to save room for dessert! The Hokkaido Soft Serve serves as a delightful finale to your meal, offering a creamy treat that rounds out the dining experience beautifully.
With its focus on high-quality ingredients and an engaging atmosphere, Nikuland promises an unforgettable culinary journey right in the heart of Melbourne.
