Kuzu Izakaya is casual Japanese eating, based within the heart of Woodend. "Japanese Pub Food" as Head Chef Eriko describes it.

Expect a mix of traditional Izakaya staples, some creative twists and interpretations, plus plenty of local wines and produce.

We pride ourselves on our professional yet approachable service.

​

The Kuzu team are more like family, a wonderful local mix of black belt hospitality warriors, who are all about making every guest feel looked after and warmly welcomed.

We're open for dinner Wednesday to Saturday, join us for a table in the restaurant or on the deck in our secluded Japanese garden on a clear evening.

Book your table online via our booking link or get in touch if you'd like to book a larger group sitting.
