If you are in the mood for a culinary chef-d’oeuvre, then you should pay a visit to Takumi. This Melbourne Japanese restaurant is the best of its kind. Not only is the food top notch, but the design of the restaurant produces a relaxing and enjoyable ambience.

Being the only Japanese restaurant in Melbourne that serves Wagyu beef, you can rest assure that it will be great. Wagyu is a premium grade cut of beef that is second to none. It is so tender and juicy, it can almost melt in your mouth. Being an expert in Wagyu, this beef is offered in many dishes in the restaurant. The Wagyu beef burger, grilled and marinated with Sukiyaki sauce is a popular selection among lunchtime customers. If you do not fancy having burgers, try the Wagyu Yakiniku lunch set. The beef is served raw and is cooked on a charcoal grill. Accompanied by veggies and a complimentary glass of beer or wine. Not only does this taste yummy, but being able cook it yourself is an great experience.

This Japanese restaurant may specialize in Wagyu beef, but that is not the only tasty delicacy it has to offer. Frequent lunch patrons also enjoy the bento box. The restaurant offers several selections on the main entree for the bento box. A common Japanese entree is Gyoza. These pan fried dumplings are super good and addictive. You cannot stop at one. If you are a seafood fan, give the Unagi bento Box a try. Unagi is smoked grilled eel and is a very popular and delicious Japanese restaurant dish.

The decoration and color schema of the restaurant has a very zen feeling. It is relaxing and inviting which makes you feel like you are right at home. The sleek and comfortable tan chairs and subtle ornaments have a tranquilizing affect and allows you to feel like you are having a quiet meal at home, even though you are in a restaurant with other people.

Overall, Takumi is a wonderful Japanese restaurant. From their delicious menu offerings, to the many different Sake choices, this Melbourne Japanese restaurant is number one on my book.
