I would come here if I want to satisfy my causal Jap food craves: this place has miso, sushi plate, poke bowl, donburi, Udon and all others. Taste would rate 3.8/5. Pricing value would be 4/5.
I also love that they are so Veggie / Vegan friendly. You can request any dish to be made in your way.
The establishment is those that would appeal to my little excitement - they display their huge range of wine / sake / Choya / Jap cocktail in a self-serve fridge - Just grab the ones you haven't tried!!
A good place for takeaway. Reasonable price with decent amount of quality food. It would be 5 stars if the hot food selection can be expanded.

A hidden gem! We found salon de sushi while walking on clarendon on a cold winter evening. Having escaped a really loud live band place we chose this empty sushi place for dinner. Staff was very polite and quite happy to see us. It was around closing time but they were happy to let us in. Thanks!! We ordered the below-
Japanese croquette bento with chickpea salad - Amazing combination of flavours. The rice was well cooked, croquette non oily and the teriyaki sauce not too sweet. Loved the fresh chickpea salad flavours! Quite filling meal for one.
Minty chicken rice paper sushi - everything was fine except the really long red pepper pieces which were a challenge to eat! Chicken was well cooked but this would be my least favourite from the dinner that day.
Salmon sushi platter - LOVED it! Can't fault it at all. A perfect dish. Period.
Brown rice tea - I have never had this before so was quite impressed by how subtle the rice flavour is. You know it tastes like that but doesn't overpower your taste buds. At $4 a pot it was a good option to choose instead of just having water.
Damages were around $40 and we left full and satisfied. Definitely come back for more!
Best poké bowls ever!! And very generous portions of food for a good price. Fresh sushi & thick pieces of sashimi as well.
Great ambience for a little place, staff are generally friendly in the evenings however, went there during the day once and staff who I've never seen were working there and quite rude.
Had the poke chirashi bowl here many times and it’s the BEST poke bowl in Melbourne, by far above the rest. So fresh and authentic! And the melon cream mochi...best way to refreshen the palate at the end of the meal.

I order the udon, pork gyoza and chicken onigiri. The udon are great 👍🏻. The gyoza is probably one of the best, i think they deep fried the gyoza bcs its really crispy which how i like it. The onigiri is disappointing, its my first time eating onigiri and didn't taste good. Overall, the place is at a pretty good spot, good food, affordable price.

Had the ‘Premium Aburi Complete’ which was an assortment of eight pieces of seared nigiri. The assortment consisted of beef tataki, eel, scallop, chicken, white fish and three salmon nigiri. Each piece of nigiri was paired with a different flavour topping and was seared nicely with a little bit of char. The rice from the nigiri took me by surprise as it tasted salty rather than the hint of the sweet and vinegary flavour you get from the traditional sushi rice. Not sure if they season the rice with salt for all of their sushi or just for the aburi nigiri assortment.
The topping and the rice held together nicely and barely any soy sauce was required as the rice already has some saltiness to it. The fish and scallop were soft and not overly seared; the chicken was tender with the skin left on to bring out more of the chicken flavour; the tataki beef was plain as there wasn’t much to it besides its natural beef flavour; and the eel tasted savoury from the seasoning and spice which is unique since eel is usually prepared with the sweet soy glaze/sauce.
Also had the ‘Snow ball mochi green tea ice cream’ from the menu which is a green tea ice cream wrapped in Japanese sticky rice. There was a decent amount of ice cream which was sweet and had a mild matcha flavour to it. The mochi skin was quite thin, soft and a little chewy.
Overall the meal was decent; the aburi nigiri was unique because the rice was salted hence giving them a more savoury profile. It was a different experience but I still prefer to eat nigiri with the traditional sweet and vinegary sushi rice. The ice cream mochi was good but nothing outstanding; nonetheless it was a nice small snack to have; cold and refreshing.
Hidden gems in south melbourne. If you are looking for fresh good sushi and fushion japanese food, this definately a place to die for. Its a hawainese influence japanese food. For healthy version, go get the chirazi, huge portion, taste perfect with the chili mayo dressing. My favourite is the risotto. This reminds me of what I ate on tokyo. We also tried the curry udon, the udon was my dad's favourite. We also tried the tartare beef sushi but it was not as good as the others. Last but not least, the greentea ice cream was really nice. Im not a fan of greentea but I could finish the whole thing by myself. They also do delivery around their area, and delivery only cost $5, if you order more tha $50, its free delivery. Better deal would be around lunch time when u get free miso soup for the sushi set.
Cute Japanese restaurant on Clarendon st.
Salon De Sushi delivered traditional Japanese cuisines with an open fridge of drinks and appetisers for you to buy.
Have had sushi here before, all dishes were fresh and tasty.
Lovely atmosphere, nice and cool on a hot day.
Take your lover, friends and family here for a Japanese night out.
Expensive, but worth it. The sushi are works of art and the servings large. Exploring the menu is so much fun and the flavours incredible. They do amazing little twists in their sushi, who knew kiwi fruit on sushi could possibly work so well?! The service was absolutely lovely and the kitchen clearly bustling with delivery orders.
Also ordered their food on Uber Eats for a work day treat and it was just as divine. Their tasting boxes are a flavour adventure. Love this place!
Salon de Sushi is one of the few sushi restaurants in Melbourne that do delivery, and in my opinion they are the best in this category.
Their packaging are very stylish and they protect the sushi very well. Every time I opened a sushi box from Salon de Sushi, the content maintained a perfect presentation. Credit should also be given to the delivery staff, who are always friendly and punctual.
There are surely better sushi out there in Melbourne, but I'm fairly certain that none of them provide delivery service. And for the price they charge, the quality of sushi is great.
Very authentic and delicious teriyaki chicken don. A bit pricey but definitely worth the value.
I also had their Chicken Katsu Don which was very good.
Very funky Japanese vibe. Food is fantastic and service is pretty cool. You can eat in, take away and they also delivery within a radius. The salmon and tuna poke bowl is a must... delicious! (And well priced)
Very sad they are closing down... Had many great meal with Salon de Sushi. Thank you very much for the great efforts and wonderful experience. Will miss you very much.
Very cozy place, food was terrific, everything was fresh, a good number of selection in the menu, although slightly pricey, but its with the money. The waiter did a good job in serving as well. Over all, a great experience to dine in this restaurant
I enjoyed my Bento - generous portions and very tasty. Nice little place, quiet but comfortable. Definitely a step up from the numerous take away places in the area.
It was a beautiful, comfortable little place with a very peaceful atmosphere. The food was authentic and delicious. The staff were very helpful, patient and absolutely lovely. Definitely coming back. Highly recommend
