Akachochin
Akachochin is a sleek, elegant restaurant found along South Wharf, named for the red paper lanterns that hang outside traditional Japanese Izakayas. It’s indicative of the restaurant as a whole - traditional methods and years of history colliding with modern produce in a modern setting.Akachochin is a Tokyo-style bar that focuses on sushi and sake. Of course, there’s more to it than just sushi and sake … but the restaurant’s skill and knowledge of both is alone well worth heading down to South Wharf. Try a sake degustation, or a selection paired with your dishes.The restaurant itself is modern, elegant, appropriately minimalist in its approach. Inside, it’s all flattering lighting, marble sushi bar, and high ceilings. Outside, grab yourself a private table by the river, to truly win at date night.Akachochin is found along South Wharf Promenade, a short stroll away from the city along the Yarra (with the city skyline glittering as a backdrop). Southern Cross is the nearest train station.
