Ayllu
Found along the canal in Paddington, underneath Smith's Bar & Grill, lies a beautiful restaurant that combines the flavours of Peru and Japan. The elegant space is intimate with low lighting, rich forest green walls lined with lily pads and sophisticated seating, making it perfect for date nights. You'll find a range of Nikkei dishes here, although we've got our eye on the sushi. Get stuck into the chef's selection of nigiri, the vibrant Ayllu platter (featuring spicy tuna rolls, soft shell crab furomaki and more) and dive into fresh slabs of sashimi – although our personal favourite is the rainbow roll, made with tuna, salmon, sea bass and avocado. Oh, and did we mention they also host DJ sessions and live samba shows?
