Japanese Restaurant for Lunch and Dinner
Takumi is the place to visit if you are in the mood for a culinary chef-d’oeuvre. This Melbourne Japanese restaurant is the best of its kind. Not only is the food top notch, but the design of the restaurant creates a relaxing and pleasurable ambiance.
Takumi is the only Melbourne Japanese restaurant 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, give the Wagyu Yakiniku lunch set a try. The beef is served raw and is cooked on a tableside grill. Accompanied by vegetables and a complimentary glass of beer or wine. Not only does this taste flavorsome, but being able prepare it yourself 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. The bento box is also a great lunch option among regular patrons. Takumi offers a few options on the main entree for the bento box. A popular Japanese dish is Gyoza. These pan fried dumplings are exceedingly good and addictive. I promise you cannot eat just 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 of the restaurant provides a very zen-like feeling. It is relaxing and tantalising which makes you feel like you are right at home. The sleek tan chairs and subtle decorations have a sedating affect and lets 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 tremendous Japanese restaurant. From their delicious menu offerings, to the many different Saki choices, this Melbourne Japanese restaurant is number one in my book.
