KOMEYUI Brisbane sits on Wharf Street in Spring Hill, a counter-driven offshoot of the Melbourne original. Rice is cooked in a hagama pot, and the sushi counter serves a seasonal omakase menu developed jointly by the Melbourne and Brisbane teams. A private dining room is available for groups, and the main room is set up with well-spaced tables for a quieter dining pace.
Chef Motomu Kumano, known as Kuma, grew up in a fishing town in Hokkaido before moving to Australia in 2005. He opened the first KOMEYUI in Melbourne in 2011 and now oversees the omakase program across both locations as owner and director, proposing ideas and refining dishes with each team.
The restaurant serves lunch and dinner Monday through Saturday, with lunch from 11:30am to 2pm and dinner from 5:30pm to 9pm. It is closed on Sundays and on public holiday Mondays, though it typically stays open for holidays falling Tuesday through Friday; a 15% surcharge applies on public holidays. The restaurant sits at an upscale price tier and offers both counter seating and a private room for events or larger parties.
Parking is not provided on-site. KOMEYUI recommends the Holiday Inn Express Brisbane Central car park across the street, entered from 7 Henry Street, and advises booking a space online in advance since availability and fees are managed by the hotel's parking operator. Reservations and gift vouchers are handled through the restaurant's website.
