GYO Japanese Tapas Bar Restaurant

Best Known For

GYO Special Bento Box: sashimi, prawn and vegetable tempura, teriyaki pork, steamed vegetables and miso soup.

Since opening in 2009, loyal Townsville diners have headed to GYO Japanese Tapas Bar Restaurant on Gregory Street to get their authentic sushi, sashimi and tapas fix. Whether you are looking to chill out with a glass of sake and enjoy plates ranging from edamame beans to sushi platters, expect to dine on cuisine just like you would find in Japan. Think delicious sushi rolls such as salmon and avocado, or hot and spicy tuna to kickstart your meal, then delve into the likes of seafood teppanyaki – prawns, squid, white fish and soft-shell crab – with steamed rice. Perhaps a fried chicken donburi bowl hits the mark, or pork katsu cutlet, topped with an egg on a rice bowl, while tender teriyaki beef, fried rice and a green salad with garlic oil and wasabi dressing satisfies the inner carnivore.
