The Kobe Jones philosophy

At Kobe Jones we believe food should be always be of the highest quality, easy to eat and shared amongst good friends and family. Our cuisine is designed to take the simplicity and delicacy of Japanese food, and meld it with the nuances and modern flavours of western cuisine.

The fusion of the east and the west is what gave Kobe Jones its name. Kobe is an ancient Japanese fishing village, and Kobe beef is renowned the world over, so Kobe represents the best of the Japanese food ethic, defined by simplicity, freshness and quality. Jones, a typical western name, represents the western influence in our dishes. Kobe Jones is where the east meets the west in Japanese cuisine.

Kobe Jones in Melbourne is situated on the banks of the beautiful Yarra River; a location chosen to combine fine dining with superb waterfront views.

Our growing reputation is also built on our commitment to producing a consistently high quality product. We always choose sustainable food sources where possible, and we have also established specific requirements for the types and grades of foods we buy, which cover everything from seafood and meat to grains and vegetables. We use specific Japanese-sourced products to ensure the umami quality in our dishes, we make all of our signature sauces and condiments in house, and our secret recipes are continually tested and improved to ensure uniqueness and high standards of flavour.
