Cave Specials

The Cave

Chef specials

As we move through the year, our kitchen team make a few dishes that reflect the current season and a taste of Japan. Whether it be traditional or a modern twist

We only make limited amounts of these specials every night so once they sell out, they are gone!

These specials not found on our regular menu

We often have one deep fried dish, yakitori and seasonal salad as specials

In December we do a “Best of the year” where we pick the top 5 most popular specials for one final bow

What’s on..

Dengaku $12.00
Deep fried eggplant with sweet miso sauce

Chicken Nanban $15.00
There is a reason this dish appears at least once every year on the specials! It’s so damn tasty.
Deep fried tender chicken thigh steeped in sweet vinegar and topped with our house made tartare sauce. This comes with a small side salad

Torikawa ponzu  $13.00
Deep fried chicken skin on sliced onion. With ponzu and spring onion

Bonjiri $11.00
An absolute classic yakitori dish found all over Japan.  Chicken tails grilled with salt

These are not always available from our supplier so it is luck on the night if we have them

Smashed cucumber $11.00
Cucumber, shio kombu(salted kelp) and sesame.  This dish is vegetarian
