About Jigoro

Step off Murray Street into Jigoro for Perth's most genuine late-night izakaya fix, complete with clinking glasses, savory tapas plates, and theatrical sake pours. Workers and night owls drift in past 9:30 PM for plates designed around drinks. The kitchen turns out crunchy spicy karaage, tender vinegar wings, and garlic butter mushrooms, alongside rarer bites like monkfish liver and seared stingray fin. Regulars swear by the comforting mentaiko chazuke—a warm bowl of rice steeped in tea—paired with an overflowing glass of Hakkaisan or a tall oolong chu-hi.

  • Vibrant Tavern Atmosphere: Guests are greeted with a chorus from the crew before settling in amid walls lined with empty sake bottles.
  • Izakaya Share Plates: The late-night kitchen sends out crunchy spicy karaage, braised pork belly, and comforting bowls of mentaiko chazuke.
  • Theatrical Drinks: Staff pour Hakkaisan sake with traditional overflowing flair alongside draft beers and fragrant oolong chu-hi.
  • Central Late-Night Hours: Open past 9:30 PM in central Perth, welcoming guests long after most nearby dining rooms have closed.

Discover why guests choose Jigoro for late-night izakaya fare, rare Japanese plates, and authentic hospitality in Perth.

  • Late-Night CBD Dining Destination

    The kitchen and bar welcome guests past standard CBD closing times with warming comfort food and drinks.

    Most dining places in Perth shut by 9pm, so discovering this spot open past 9.30pm was a lovely surprise.

  • Day-to-Night Dual Concept

    Operating as a dedicated udon noodle shop during lunch hours, the venue transforms into a bustling evening bar at night.

    This place operates as a udon restaurant until 5 PM and transforms into a bar after that.

  • Uncommon Izakaya Delicacies

    The kitchen presents rare izakaya delicacies rarely seen across Perth, from ankimo to sea grapes and seared stingray fin.

    Jigoro's menu offers a delightful array of traditional izakaya fare, with unique dishes you don't often find elsewhere in Perth, like seared stingray fin and monkfish liver.

  • Restorative Comfort After Long Journeys

    The intimate alley setting offers a comforting escape to unwind over drinks and nourishing bites after long days or flights.

    For me it saved my arrival in Perth after a 24hour flight. Thank you for that experience!

Customer favourites and authentic tavern tapas

  • Chicken Karaage

    Spicy karraage; sauce is full of flavour and the chicken is really crunchy and delicious 10/10

  • Braised Pork Belly

    The braised pork belly was delicious—it nearly melted in my mouth.

  • Monkfish Liver

    I didn't expect to find such fresh monkfish liver in Perth! It has a delicate texture with no fishy smell. Served with grated daikon and ponzu, it’s the ultimate snack to pair with sake.

  • Fried Oysters

    The Fried Oysters, in particular, are juicy and fresh—the tartar sauce adds a wonderful depth of flavor.

Drinks and shareable sides to complete your izakaya visit

    I highly recommend the "Mio" Sparkling Sake. It’s refreshing with a hint of rice sweetness and a crisp carbonation that pairs brilliantly with fried dishes and braised meats.

    Hakkaisan; tastes really smooth and not strong. Really enjoyed the serving technique and performance. 10/10

Before you head over

Practical planning advice for reservations, table timing, and day-to-night visits.

  • Book Ahead Even for Small Groups

    Walk-ins can get caught waiting when larger crowds gather, so reserve ahead even for pairs or small parties arriving later in the evening.

  • Plan Around the 90-Minute Limit

    Tables operate with an allotted 90-minute seating limit, making it ideal to order your share plates and drinks together upon arrival.

  • Time Your Visit by Day or Night Menu

    The kitchen converts from daytime udon noodles into a full izakaya bar after 5 PM, so plan your visit timing based on the menu format you want.
