The name “Ichoume” comes from the address of this street. Ichoume is located on ‘1’ Harbour Street, Darling Quarter. That’s why we named the restaurant “Ichoume” (Choume is used for addresses in Japan. It's a way of breaking a municipality into districts. 丁目(Choume) is ‘city district’, so ‘1 choume’(Ichoume) is ‘1st [city] district’).The design concept of the restaurant is a hangout for adults.The menu is supervised by AKIKO ISHIKAWA, who has accumulated her career in many restaurants. The head chef is TOMOHIKO KIMURA . He specialises in Japanese - based cuisine with French techniques and flavours.

I came here to celebrate my birthday, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome and taken care of. Our waiter, Esteban, was amazing, attentive, and genuinely made the experience feel special. His service truly stood out and added a personal touch to the night. Every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. We ordered a variety of small and large sharings, and everything was cook to perfection and beautifully presented. The beef skewer, in particular was the best I’ve ever tried, incredibly tender and packed with flavour. I’ll definitely be recommending this place to friends and family. Whether it’s for a celebration or just a great night out, this restaurant delivers on every level!
