About Tenya

Tenya delivers an endless Japanese waterfront feast in Brisbane Quarter, pairing unlimited lobster and sashimi with open river views. Regulars book the terrace at dusk to watch South Bank light up over plates stacked with Moreton Bay bugs, shucked oysters, and Alaskan king crab. The cold bar keeps fresh salmon and tuna in steady rotation, while hot trays dish out roast meats and steamed dumplings. Those who know the drill sign up for the annual VIP pass to bring friends at discounted rates—finishing long celebrations with scoops of mandarin and mint sorbet.

  • Unlimited Premium Crustaceans: Chilled spreads feature all-you-can-eat lobster, Alaskan king crab legs, Moreton Bay bugs, freshly shucked oysters, and sliced sashimi.
  • Waterfront Terrace Views: Terrace and dining room seats look directly across the water toward South Bank and the illuminated skyline.
  • Annual VIP Membership: An annual pass unlocks discounted lunch and dinner buffet rates for the cardholder and up to four guests.
