Book NowAbout Zero Mode
Zero Mode delivers high-grade Asian fusion to Box Hill, ditching inner-city markups for plates piled with M9 wagyu, live lobster, and foie gras. Daytime crowds drop in for thick slices of shokupan stacked with truffle scrambled eggs, but dinner pulls in the real food hounds. The kitchen leans into generous multi-course spreads—think crispy-skinned dry-aged duck baos and unagi rice with charred, crunchy bottoms. Seasonal menus take the indulgence further, sending staff straight to the table to shower pasta and hot pizzas under generous mounds of freshly shaved black truffle.
- Tableside Shaved Truffle: Seasonal dishes like rich lobster pasta and crisp pizzas are finished tableside with generous shavings of fresh black truffle.
- Feast Menus & Free-Flow Pours: Multi-course menus showcase M9 wagyu, dry-aged duck, and live lobster, paired with timed bottomless cocktails and wine.
