Oi Izakaya

James Street’s slice of Tokyo night culture. Oi Izakaya brings that electric, fast-paced energy straight to Burleigh Heads. The evening crowd is hooked on the imported Japanese tap beers—crisp, cold, and ready for a proper nomikai (drinking party). Unique, expertly crafted cocktails keep the tables lively. The vibe? Cozy, chaotic in the best way, unapologetically fun. Those who grab a seat know the drill. The wagyu sando is an absolute heavyweight—rich, savory, completely decadent. Chopsticks dart between plates of ultra-fresh tuna tataki and deeply comforting chicken katsu curry. Bowls of crispy kale and salted edamame disappear fast. It’s vibrant. It’s loud. The ultimate backdrop to gather the crew and shout kampai!
