Texakaya By Burn City Pop-up

Best beef broth I ever tried in Melbourne and quality brisket and shiitake mushroom, While the ramen itself tastes like instant noodles, assume it wasn’t the fresh made one. Overall if you are searching for good soup, worth trying.

Friends suggested we visit this pop up restaurant that is Texas and Japanese Fusion. We booked in for Wednesday Dinner and it was a lovely experience. <br/ <br/ There were 7 of us so we decided to do the feed me menu. It was $59 each the best part is the chef is very flexible. A few of us have the preferable main dish in mind which happened not to be the one on, chef was nice enough to swap to the dish we wanted as long as we all agreed on the same dish. Entree we had Karaage Chicken, Schnitzel sandwich (our fault to swap to Karaage chicken then everything is fried chicken), a couple skewers. Main we had the pork baby back ribs, they came with corn and a Japanese salad. Dessert is a mix of 4 dishes, all beautifully done.<br/ <br/ The only complain is the drink menu is quite limited well not as good as some other fusion restaurants. Service was really friendly. Worth giving it a shot!

Burn city pop up is back and better than ever! With a quirky take on classics like the “chiko” roll and amazing options for those veggos out there like the smoked mushroom and haloumi burger, meat lover or not your definitely going to enjoy your meal! The highlights for us were the incredible 8 hour smoked beef short rib, and dare we say the smoked cauliflower too? The humble veg was just so tasty! Skip the jalapeño poppers and make sure you leave space for their wholebaked apple it’s like nothing you’ve ever tasted!

If there was a 3.5 star rating, that would really be more precise. Came here for the Smoked Brisket Burger and it did not disappoint, that's for sure. You really get your 17$ worth of meat there and it really just falls apart when you bite into it. You can really taste the smokiness and the amount of effort put into making the burger. I will say, I would've added a tad bit more seasoning to the meat. The sauce can be a little overbearing. Also tried the truffle fries, which was standard fries and nothing to boast about. Quite stingy with the truffle salt. Would not recommend ordering it. The staff was extremely observant and constantly making sure my drink water was filled. Super friendly and attentive. This would be a great place to bring your date. We sat by the window and it was cozy and private and really nice. The dark ambiance of the place really brings out a fine dining experience without the price tag.

Seriously good! I'd been dreaming about the brisket burger from when I landed and it did not dissapoint, coupled with the mac n cheese I was a happy girl. I went with a group which included a vegitarian, who raved about the mushrooms, another just had dessert the smoked apple (at the recommendation of our excellent waiter Angelo) which was a win. The service was a cut above. I hope this pop up becomes permanent
