Pairing drinks with Japanese cuisine is never about strength โ€” itโ€™s about harmony. ๐Ÿฅ‚
Each drink brings its own quiet character.
And when matched with the right dish, it doesnโ€™t overpower; it gently lifts the flavors, carrying them a little further.

We explore these pairings with intention โ€” delicate, balanced, and true to the season.

Join us for our final Omakase available until December 24th.

Dear valued guests and friends,

When we opened Shusai Mijo 18 months ago, we had a vision: to share authentic Japanese omakase in the heart of Fitzroy. We poured our hearts into every dish, every detail, every moment.

Today, we write to share that Shusai Mijo will close on December 24th, 2025.

Why this decision?

Running a restaurant is a journey of constant evolution. After much reflection, weโ€™ve realized that to continue serving you with the passion and quality you deserve, we need to transform. The current format has reached its natural conclusion, and itโ€™s time for something new.

Our deepest gratitude

To every guest who sat at our counter, shared sake with us, and trusted us to create memorable eveningsโ€”thank you.
Your support has meant everything.

For those who havenโ€™t visited yet

If youโ€™ve been meaning to experience Shusai Mijo, weโ€™d love to welcome you before December 24th.
Letโ€™s create one last beautiful memory together.

Whatโ€™s next?

While this chapter closes, weโ€™re not disappearing. Weโ€™re reimagining how we can serve this community better. Stay connectedโ€”something exciting is brewing for 2026.

Thank you for being part of our story.

Managing Director /Masayuki Iiri, Fujio Tamura

I have decided to step down from my position as Chef at Shusai Mijo, with my final day of service being December 24, 2025.

โ€‹This is a personal decision driven by the need to focus on my health. Due to health reasons, I have determined that I can no longer continue to prepare the omakase and sushi with the consistent quality that you deserve, and that I demand of myself.

โ€‹Leaving this rewarding place was not easy. It has been a true joy to cook for you all. Following my departure, I will be taking time to focus entirely on my recovery.

โ€‹I want to extend my deepest thanks to every customer, supplier, and team member. Your loyalty and support have made my time here unforgettable.

โ€‹Shusai Mijo will continue. I sincerely ask that you keep supporting the restaurant as they move into their next chapter.

โ€‹I will be working hard until December 24th, pouring my absolute best into every dish, and I sincerely hope to see you one last time before then.

โ€‹Thank you all for an incredible journey.

โ€‹With sincere gratitude,
โ€‹Takuro Abe

From preparation to the final cutโ€”
O-toro roll comes to life step by step.

Ingredients are arranged with quiet precision, resting gently on the bamboo mat.
The roll takes shape as the bamboo mat folds in a slow, deliberate motion.
A clean slice reveals the rich marbling of O-toro at its heart.

A simple moment, crafted with intention.๐ŸŸโœจ

Sushi can be enjoyed both with chopsticks or simply by hand โ€”
whichever feels most natural to you.๐Ÿฃ

Eating sushi by hand is a traditional practice in Japan, allowing you to feel the rice, preserve the delicate structure of each piece, and enjoy it just as the chef intended.
