Looking for a high-vibes dinner spot before your next big night out? Throw KODA Cocktails and Grill in the group chat

If you’re making a reservation at KODA Cocktails and Grill, it’s in your best interests that you try to snag a seat around the robata grill (though the plush banquettes are pretty ace for groups). Smiley chefs greet you as you take your place, and before you can even say "drinks", little glasses of house sake are handed to you on a paddle.
It’s all part of the Japanese charm and hospitality that makes the restaurant a fun place to be, whether you’re visiting for a CBD lunch or cocktails and snacks. You’ll find it just off George Street, tucked behind Zaffi and O Bar and Dining so you know you’re heading for a bustling precinct.
The robata grill is the star of the show, with dedicated sections on the menu for meat (sticky, fall-off-the-bone pork ribs), steak (9+ tajima wagyu), fish (a whole flounder), crustaceans (scallops served in their shell), and vegetables (charred broccolini).
There’s also an à la carte menu with lots of Tokyo laneway-inspired eats, like honey soy crispy eggplant with garlic; tuna sashimi on finely shredded ponzu pickled cabbage; and lobster ramen noodles.
Pair with a bottle of sake or two to share, or opt for one of the specialty cocktails: fruity and refreshing highballs.
With 90's/00 hits playing over the speaker, KODA is a pretty groovy spot for a feed before a big night out with mates. Catch you there next Friday night.
