Rōnin Ōmakase: Melbourne’s First Korean Fusion Omakase

Rōnin Ōmakase is a ten-seat Korean fusion omakase on Little Collins Street in Melbourne’s CBD, led by Chef Liam Lee. The name “Rōnin”, the masterless samurai, reflects a path of discipline and independent craftsmanship, and the restaurant carries that spirit into an intimate counter where the chef serves every course himself.

The logo is a refined calligraphic mark featuring a stylised warrior’s head and blade motif, drawn with stroke work that carries both tradition and movement. A minimal colour palette mirrors the omakase experience itself: quiet, precise and focused on the food.

The identity extends across menus, digital touchpoints and the restaurant’s spatial design, so the story guests read is the same one they taste.

Brand identity, logo design, brand naming, website design and menu design.

The restaurant opened with the identity already working, from the mark on the door to the menus on the counter. Rōnin has since drawn media attention and runs on bookings, and we continue to manage its website and search presence, so the brand keeps earning attention long after opening night.
