Ishka Restaurant

Upstairs at The Breakwater, Ishka celebrates the wonderful produce and wine of Western Australia and beyond, in a sophisticated, yet relaxed and vibrant atmosphere.

Derived from the Irish Gaelic word “Uisce” (Ish-ka), means 'water'. With stunning views across the harbour, Ishka Restaurant is one of Perth’s most spectacular dining experiences.

We're open seven days for lunch and dinner. A private dining room is available for that intimate occasion.
