Harajuku Gyoza | Multiple Venues

This classic dining spot has multiple locations across Brisbane. Serving them traditional Tokyo style, they are crispy on the bottom but soft and steamy on top. Their traditional menu features pork, prawn, chicken and duck dumplings with some vegetarian options, but it’s their special apple gyoza dessert that is our number one must try item as it is unique to Harajuku Gyoza.
