If you want to experience a culinary chef-d’oeuvre, a visit to Takumi is a must. 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.

Takumi is the only Melbourne Japanese restaurant that serves 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. You can get this beef cooked in many ways. Many people enjoy it as a burger, grilled and marinated with Sukiyaki sauce. Personally, I recommend trying the Wagyu Yakiniku Lunch Set. The beef is served raw and is cooked on a charcoal grill. Companioned by salad and a complimentary glass of beer or wine. Not only does this taste flavorful, but being able prepare it yourself is an great experience.

This Japanese restaurant may specialize in Wagyu beef, but that is not the only delicacy it has to offer. Regular lunch visitors also love the bento box. The restaurant offers a few selections on the main entree for the bento box. A popular Japanese dish 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 interior decoration of the restaurant provides a very zen-like feeling. You will feel right at home when dining here. The sleek tan chairs and subtle decorations have a tranquillizing affect and lets 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 marvelous Japanese restaurant. From their delicious menu offerings, to the many different choices of Saki, this Melbourne Japanese restaurant is number one on my book.
