Takeaway
Item: teriyaki salmon don
Good don, could do with a bit more extras in the bowl e.g. salads, pickles, vegetables considering it was $15.80.
Best ramen around this area. The soup broth is a bit sweet and the noodles are very chewy and tasty.
Sushi and sashimi is pretty average. Only downstairs was open and the seats aren’t very comfortable!
Very polite and lovely staff
The Teriyaki Chicken Don was very nice. Very reasonable price compared to what I would normally pay elsewhere. I found the ginger on the top of the dish a bit spicy/hot for my liking as someone who doesn’t like spicy things. The Potato Croquet was okay; nothing special and wouldn’t order it again, but this could be personal preference.
From ordering the meal to the time it was ready was very quick but I was told by a friend who visits more regularly that this usually isn’t the case.
Would visit again.
This place is my go to for sushi handrolls. I always get the salmon avocado and the tuna handrolls.While it is pricey for handrolls,they definitely are the best and freshest in Elsternwick.
Great Japanese food, always fresh and tasty. Very good prawn and avocado roll, chicken karake. Love funky decor pot plants. Highly recommended.
Very tasty Shio Ramen, at a good price! I really enjoy the Karage which is also pretty cheap. One criticism I have is the ordering counter, as at peak times it can be a bit confusing to order. But this is pretty minor
BEST JAPANESE YOU WILL EVER EAT!! SUSHI IS AMAZING, CANNOT RATE HIGHLY ENOUGH! My favourite is tuna and avo sushi and inari! The freshest sushi and lovely staff!
Came for lunch, busy but staff friendly and we sat in the upstairs dining room. Decor is modern, fresh and open. Ordered the Shoyu Ramen with egg and an Okonomiyaki on a stick. Ramen is good - a clean broth with intense soy flavour that goes well with the firm flat noodles, fatty pork slices that melt in the mouth, fungus, micro herbs and one of the best marinated eggs I've had for a while. Okonomiyaki on a stick is crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. A nice contrast of textures and tasted alright too. Overall very decent lunch.
Cool place. Loved the teriyaki salmon bento, salmon was delicious. Ideal spot for lunch on Glen Huntly road, one of the better options for a quick, fresh and healthy meal. Will be back. Teriyaki chiecken also nice but a bit sickly. Come here regularly for sushi.. salmon is very fresh, they do good crispy/fried chicken here.
The teriyaki chicken don was nice, however, a little bit too much sauce/mayo for me. But the service was great! They served our food within 5 mins or so after sitting down! The staff were all really nice and friendly.
Nice Japanese restaurant. Had the Chicken Udon which was very tasty. Noodles & broth were both excellent however the chicken was a touch skimp with its serving and felt the place was slightly overpriced. Service was friendly.
Perfect, friendly staff and great food at a reasonable price. Worthy of the 5 stars. Been a few times recently for take away and not had a bad meal. Nice selection of pantry items to browse while you wait (if you can read Japanese)
Can't complain, nice ramen, fast friendly service and convenient. There are plenty of places that do better ramen but this is good for a quick easy lunch.

Efficient order/pay system for both dine in and takeaway, decent prices too. Friendly, prompt service, and ample of room to dine in.
But the ramen was very average. The noodles weren't the best - bit on the soggy side and not chewy, and the soup is too salty. The pork slice is nice, but yeah... that was pretty much it. I'll try their sushi sometime.
This is the place to go for it's specialty, the perfect chicken ramen. Chicken is poached to perfection and flavour is well balanced. Noodles are appropriately springy. Side dishes are not too bad as well
Fantastic, authentic ramen and japanese spot in Elsternwick. Great food, great flavour and great price, worth a try!

Excellent sushi rolls, always freshly made. Have tried a few other things (sushi packs, teryaki chicken don, udon noodle soup), generally good quality and good value.
Awesome food The sushi is incredible and let's. Not forget the Raman and Beto boxes. It is reasonably priced with very good food and service

Have no other ramen to compare it to as this was the first I've tried, but I do know I'll definitely coming back from more, tries the chicken Charshu with egg. Was very flavoursome.
The Charshu Ramen here is superb. Perhaps the best ramen in all Melbourne. The flavour is at least 3 tiers above any other ramen I have tasted.
Ordered the Chicken Teriyaki Don, needless to say it was full of flavour and looked just as good as it tasted. Quick and friendly customer service aswell. Great place will visit again soon!
Love this place especially their food however it's really handy should I need any Japanese ingredients for cooking. It is very popular with the locals (and others) and service friendly and slick!
The Tokyo Deli is a fantastic little gem on Glenhuntly Rd. Although it's a bit hidden on what can be a busy street, this Japanese deli/grocery/Sake cellar is great for when you want to add some Japanese spice into your life.
Good Food but small portions. Visited this place last week, the food was good and arrived pretty quickly. But the serving portion is quite small for the price you pay
The food as usual was delicious. The hubs had the Terriyaki Chicken Bento set $9.80 and his Edamame. I had the Yakiniku Beef Don $8.50. We shared or rather fought to finish the Agedashi Tofu! Yum!
Lol
Bottom line, I always leave here filling full and satisfied! *thumbs up*
If you earn the money here and not convert currencies, pricing is pretty alright for a Jap meal. :)
Whilst you are here for lunmch, you can also do some grocery shopping. Check out their site HERE for their menu and grocery shop. Simple but attractive and easy to navigate website!
Dinner. Friendly staff. The food is fresh & throughly enjoyable. Certainly worth a visit if you're in the area.
Fantastic Japanese Food and Reasonably Priced. The salmon nigiri sushi is outstanding, the quality of the salmon is great, so tender and fresh. The tofu don is a delicious hot meal, it comes in other varieties, chicken etc. I also like to buy the edamame beans, lots of japanese desserts to choose from. I highly recommend, great service and very clean.
Great dish, Katsu curry, perfect size, crispy and tender . Friendly staff and quick service.
Good Japanese food on Glenhuntly Rd. Friendly service to me and the place looks nice. Will return to try some other dishes next time.
I went down here for place an order sushi plate for my daughter's party. One short hair boy staff have been nice and flexible for my order even it's needed to be picked up early morning. I also have salmon teriyaki for my lunch. Sauce that he used and the mayo on the top of the salmon gave me the extra creamy flavour. I really enjoyed my lunch with my wife at this shop.
Great noodle. Could have come in bigger portion given the price is not cheap.
Japanese do it better- Grea.... Japanese do it better-
Great home made thick ramen noodles, chicken broth. Fresh hand made rolls. Amazing sushi platters
Fantastic hand rolls. The best sushi hand rolls I've tried to date in Melbourne! Fresh and tasty. But the customer service could be a little more friendlier.
Fresh and a cut above most Japanese sushi joints(actually run by Japanese). Grocery shop handy but not often staff around to demystify and help.
Great example of a deli/restaurant. Dishes are consistently good value and fresh ingredients. The store is really well stocked too. Friendly staff.
Great!. Good price and delicious bento box!
Clearly the best bento boxes and sushi in melbourne authentic Japanese
Good quality food at reasonable price. We love Japanese and this place received a thumbs up from us.
Authentic Japanese. This place sells some great sushi at good prices, and some amazing eel kabayaki too!
They are also a well stock Japanese grocery, so if you are after imported Japanese food items this is the place to go.
If you are lucky enough to live in the area, do try their sushi, you will not be dissapointed.
Great japanese. One of my favourites, for sushi, as well as bento boxes and noodles. Quick, tasty, can't fault it, and given it's also a grocery store, you tend to also walk out with something else!
Super fresh sushi that they are happy to make for you on the spot 🍣🍱
The staff were super sweet.
Particularly enjoyed my salmon and avo roll.
Great variety of stuff in the asian grocer side.
The only thing I found disappointing/confusing is that they were advertising for the matcha ice cream 🍵🍦 but then they said it wasn’t seasonally available.
the best teriyaki chicken don ive ever tasted in my life (not even kidding). the service was so great, staff were extremely friendly and fast. i gobbled up the meal in 10 seconds (left no crumbs!). i highly recommend!
A nice simple Japanese restaurant with a small but good grocery choice too, including organic products, even organic sake.
Not many vegetarian options but excellent though!
I recommend without a doubt.
Nom nom nom good value, tasty food. Panko prawns were also really good and the sushi rolls are fresh and hit the spot.
Make sure to get a Matcha Soft Serve on the way out... delicious ice cream and great cone.
