3 Fils
Ever since the homegrown concept was brought to life in 2016, 3 Fils has continued to garner a loyal following. The restaurant is known for its eclectic Asian fare, with a highlight on Japanese flavours. That’s not all what makes it stand out. The ingredients themselves are brought in from Japan on a weekly basis, helping to maintain the authenticity.
One glance at the menu says it all. Celebrating Japanese cuisine in a casual dining style. Comfort food? They got you covered with burgers and wings. Craving seafood? Hit the sushi section (tempura, tuna, eel, nigiri and more). Feeling fancy? Dip into the Fremantle Octopus or Chilean Seabass.
