Yummy Japanese Food
Takumi is the place to visit if you are in the mood for a culinary masterpiece. This Melbourne Japanese restaurant is the best of its kind. Not only is the food of tremendous quality, but the location and design of the restaurant creates a relaxing and enjoyable ambience.
Takumi is the only Melbourne Japanese restaurant that offers Wagyu beef. Wagyu is a premium grade cut of beef that is second to none. It is tender and juicy it melts in your mouth. This beef is the main ingredient in many dishes offered in the restaurant. Many visitors enjoy it as a burger, grilled and marinated with Sukiyaki sauce. I highly recommend the Wagyu Yakiniku lunch set. The beef is served raw and is cooked on a tableside grill. Accompanied by salad and a complimentary glass of beer or wine. Not only does this taste flavorsome, but being able cook it yourself adds an added touch of magic.
This Japanese restaurant may specialize in Wagyu beef, but that is not the only Japanese delicacy it has to offer. Regular lunch visitors also enjoy the bento box. The restaurant offers a few choices on the main entree for the bento box. A popular Japanese dish is Gyoza. These pan fried dumplings are super good and addictive. I promise you cannot eat just one. If you love seafood, order yourself the Unagi Bento Box. Unagi is smoked grilled eel and is a very popular and delicious Japanese restaurant dish.
The interior decoration and lighting of the restaurant has a very zen-like feel. You will feel right at home when dining here. The sleek tan chairs and subtle ornaments have a sedating affect and allows you to feel like you are having a quiet meal at home, even though you are in the presence with other people.
Overall, Takumi is a great Japanese restaurant. From their delicious menu offerings, to the many different choices of Sake, this Melbourne Japanese restaurant is number one in my book.
