An Australian-inspired restaurant and bar where ‘outback meets chic’, Barossa is famed for their beef, burger and beers! Its unpretentious, laid-back and rustic ambience makes it the perfect place to chill out after a hard day’s work. Tuck in hearty Australian fare created only with the freshest ingredients.

The Smokey BBQ Back Ribs at Barossa has just the right balance between sweet and meat. Roasting them in a hot oven, the sugar in the marinade caramelizes during the roasting, creating a dark reddish-brown crust, shiny as fresh lacquer. We can easily cut the ribs into small pieces and devour with a stack of napkins. Don’t forget to pair your ribs with some Naughty Nachos served with beef chilli con carne and melted cheese sauce.

When slices of wagyu is added into the broth, you can really get the sweetness from the meat. Besides shabu shabu, Shabuya also features a comprehensive menu that incorporates all-time favorites like Tempura, Crispy Soft Shell Crab and Cold Soba.
