Japanese Restaurant for Lunch and Dinner
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 top notch, but the design of the restaurant produces a relaxing and pleasurable ambiance.
Takumi is the only Japanese restaurant in Melbourne that offers Wagyu beef. If you don’t know what Wagyu is, it is a top grade cut of beef. It is tender and juicy it melts in your mouth. Being an expert in Wagyu, this beef is offered in many dishes in the restaurant. Many customers 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 smokeless grill. It is also served with vegetables and a complimentary glass of beer or wine. Not only does this taste flavoursome, but being able to see it prepared adds an added touch of magic.
This Japanese restaurant may specialize in Wagyu beef, but that is not the only delicacy it has to offer. A bento box is also a fun way to enjoy your lunch. Takumi offers a few options on the main entree for the bento box. A popular Japanese dish is Gyoza. These pan fried dumplings are extremely good and addictive. You cannot stop at one. If you like something different, 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 scheme of the restaurant has a very zen feel. You will feel right at home when dining here. The sleek and comfortable tan chairs and subtle decorations have a sedating 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 marvelous Japanese restaurant. From their delicious menu offerings, to the many different choices of Sake, this Melbourne Japanese restaurant is number one in my book.
