Tucked off Park Road in Milton, Shimo Yakiniku serves marbled wagyu platters grilled right over tabletop burners. Settle into curtained booths for a celebratory spread—deluxe sets arrive paced with beef tartare, silky onsen egg, and pork belly without servers hovering or rushing the flame. The downdraft ventilation pulls smoke cleanly away, so you leave smelling fresh after finishing with citrusy yuzu sorbet.
- Curtained Private Booths: Curtained booths offer private quarters suited for birthdays and milestone dinners.
- Smokeless Ventilation: Powerful downdraft ventilation keeps the air clear and prevents lingering barbecue smoke on clothing.
- Self-Paced Grilling: Staff step back to let guests grill thick cuts of beef and seasonal sides entirely at their own pace.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my clothes smell like smoke after dining?
Yes. Diners consistently highlight that the restaurant's built-in exhaust and ventilation systems effectively keep smoke away, so clothes do not smell like barbecue after your meal.
Is private booth seating available?
Yes. Diners note that private booth seating with curtains can be requested or booked, making it a great option for birthdays and celebrations.
Do staff cook the meat for you or do you grill it yourself?
At Shimo, guests grill their own meats at the table at their own pace, with servers stepping back rather than micromanaging your cooking.
What are the best parking and transit options?
Street and paid parking are located nearby, though spots become scarce and pricey during Suncorp Stadium game days. Milton train, bus, and ferry stations are all within a short walking distance.
