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. SHINSUKE TODA is recognised among the best sushi chefs now working and is credited with techniques utilised in contemporary sushi and sashimi preparation.Hope you enjoy what we’ve made for you.Owner ARI K. & YUKI ISHIKAWA

    We kept seeing the unusual name concept and were curious. Splurged on the soloist banquet, and it was a lovely memorable tour of flavours. Quiet and calming night out, very much recommend.

    Outstanding quality and taste for all menu items we ordered. The beef pho tartare is an incredible twist on a classic, the spring rolls were the best we have had and the wagyu in the noodles were tender and second to none. All the tastes were perfectly balanced. The mock chicken our vegetarian friend enjoyed was incredible. Wine menu and recommendations really hit the spot. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

    One of the best hamburgers I’ve ever had. The ‘Crowburger’ was tasty, easy to handle and with the special jam was delicious. Crowbar is built for live music, so don’t expect too much from the ambiance and or service, but do enjoy one of Sydney’s great burger experiences!
