If you are in the mood for a culinary chef-d’oeuvre, then you should visit Takumi. This Melbourne Japanese restaurant is the best of its kind. The food is top notch and the design and ambience of the restaurant is relaxing.

Takumi is the only Japanese restaurant in Melbourne that offers Wagyu beef. Wagyu is a premium grade cut of beef that is second to none. The meat is so tender and juicy it melts in your mouth. This beef is the main ingredient in many dishes offered in the restaurant. Many customers enjoy it as a burger, grilled and marinated with Sukiyaki sauce. 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. It is also served with veggies and a complimentary glass of beer or wine. Not only does this taste flavoursome, but being able cook it yourself is an excellent experience.

This Japanese restaurant may specialize in Wagyu beef, but that is not the only Japanese delicacy it has to offer. Frequent lunch visitors also enjoy the bento box. Takumi offers a few selections on the main entree for the bento box. A favorite Japanese restaurant menu item is Gyoza. These pan fried dumplings are extremely good and addictive. You cannot stop at one. If you love seafood, try the Unagi Bento Box. Unagi is smoked grilled eel and is a very popular and delicious Japanese restaurant dish.

The decor and color scheme of the restaurant has a very zen feel. You will feel right at home when dining here. The sleek and comfortable high back chairs and subtle ornaments have a calming affect and allows you to feel like you are having a quiet meal at home, even though you are in the presence of other patrons.

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