The combination of hot, gourmet dumplings and cold Japanese beer is hard to resist – and it seems the good folk of Brisbane agree, with Harajuku Gyoza expanding to the CBD in addition to existing locations in South Bank and Indooroopilly. Tucked inside Albert Lane, just off Queen Street, the eatery dishes up lunch and dinner from 11:00 am to 10:00 pm every day. The menu is the same as at other Brisbane locations, with an interesting ceiling feature to gawk at while throwing back your dumplings of choice.

WEEKLY DEALS: If you’re penny-pinching, take note that Harajuku Gyoza offers a range of fabulous cheap eats throughout the week. You can chow down on $1 dumplings on Mondays, 50-cent wings on a Wednesday and two-for-one plates of gyoza on Thursday – your shout! You can take advantage of these hot offers through the Harajuku Gyoza app, and they are only available to dine-in and takeaway customers (no Uber Eats, sorry!).
