Japanese heart, Sydney soul

Tucked along Bourke Street, My Zakaya is Surry Hills’ best-kept secret — a cosy, candlelit room where traditional Japanese technique meets bold, modern flavour.
Every dish is made with care.
Small space. Big heart.

At My Zakaya, Nobu brings everything full circle. His cooking is grounded in Japanese tradition, using techniques like fermentation, ageing, and dashi from scratch, while drawing inspiration from the wider world. Every dish reflects his passion for deep, natural umami flavours, seasonal ingredients, and the quiet details that make a meal feel special.

My Zakaya is Nobu’s way of sharing what he loves, thoughtful, honest food made with heart. It’s a place where craftsmanship meets comfort, and where every dish has a story to tell.
