Introducing
the new Maki Bar: a fresh, contemporary take on Japanese dining with bold flavour at its core.
Maki Bar
A Japanese hand-roll bar built for the rhythm of the city.
Maki Bar is a modern Japanese hand-roll bar inspired by the cult dining scenes of Los Angeles and Tokyo and designed for the pace of Sydney.
Guests sit at a 20-seat counter and enjoy a fixed menu of hand rolls served fresh, warm, and crisp, one by one, directly from the chef.
The experience is fast-casual but elevated. Premium ingredients, clean design, efficient flow, and the right energy.
Each location is designed for high-density CBD sites like Bridge Street and Martin Place, targeting office workers, commuters, and locals who want quality without compromise.
The concept combines Japanese precision with Sydney speed, creating a category-defining experience that is as much about rhythm and design as it is about food.
Freshness. Speed. Simplicity.
WHY WE'RE EXCITED
A new standard in fast-casual dining – fresh, fast and made with purpose.
Maki Bar represents the evolution of modern dining: simple, fast, and designed for how people actually eat today.
We’re not just selling sushi; we’re selling the feeling of freshness that comes from that first crisp bite of a warm hand roll made right in front of you.
Every touchpoint, from design to service to packaging, has been carefully considered.
The look and feel are refined but inviting, with an emphasis on transparency, flow, and brand clarity.
As an operator, Petite Group brings proven experience in scaling highperforming venues and creating brands people line up for. With over 6,000 weekly guests across our venues and deep operational expertise, we understand how to turn a great concept into a thriving destination.
We’re ready to bring Maki Bar to life and establish a flagship fast-casual experience that will redefine Japanese dining in Australia.
Premium ingredients. Precision service. Peak-hour energy.
