Kisumé, a pure obsession with beauty - is a contemporary experience that’s built on duality. It’s where the traditionalist and the modern artist meet. Our cuisine draws on the purity of Japanese food culture and injects it with a uniquely Australian sensibility. Here, each visit will be different from the last: Kisumé is a journey that constantly evolves.

Find us in the heart of Flinders Lane, a stones throw from Flinders Street Station and Federation Square, and discover three levels of dining.

    All dishes were average and somewhat not thought through in terms of palate experience. The beef sauce was overpowering and extremely rich while the miso soup had very minimal taste. The sushi in the board already had premixed washabi which was very unthoughtful of anyone not Loki g washabi and very unlike Japanese tradition.

    Even though we had two hrs to dine in, we felt rushed from the start. We spent $500 in an hr. Within an hr they fed us the entire menu and pretty much rushed us out of the door.

    Very good all round, food was fresh and delicious. Wine list was great, Sommelier was very helpful and selected a cracking Chablis, and overall very pleasant evening.

    Good food and service however I have been a few times in the space of a year or so and the variety in the dishes could slightly improve. Portion sizes for banquet definitely on the smaller side.

    I was overall very happy. My waiter was fantastic although we did order the truffle mushroom rice to add onto the banquet which we did not receive. We were not charged for it just a bit disappointing cause we were really looking forward to it. And by the time we realised we had already gotten our dessert so it was too late to ask for it by then. Apart from that it was great just a bit annoying that he sold it to us and my dinner companion was extremely looking forward to it.

    the waiter spilled soy sauce on me when taking away the starter dish for the omakase course. Didn’t want to cause a scene or get anyone in trouble, we kept quiet, but please be mindful. thank you! awesome omakase course as usual, thank you to our chef
