The Concept

At Yan Melbourne, we are a smokehouse restaurant at heart, bringing you bold, smoky flavours fused with the delicate intricacies of Asian cuisine. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted with an infusion of smoke, transporting you to a place where tradition meets innovation, whether it's through our smoked oils or the perfectly smoked meats we serve.

Our concept was born during a road trip across America, where our owner was inspired by the smokey flavours of classic smokehouses. As he listened to the very playlist you hear in our restaurant, the idea of combining smoke and Asian cuisine emerged. He wanted to explore how the robust, deep flavors of a smokehouse could harmonize with the refined, delicate tastes of Asian cuisine. And so, Yan was born, a fusion of cultures, flavours and experiences, brought together by one unifying element: smoke.

Step inside, and discover a one-of-a-kind culinary journey that’s as bold as it is delicate.
