Kisume feature was worth it if you want to try a little bit of everything from the sushi selection. Everything was fresh especially the salmon and kingfish (top favorite). Octopus karaage is also worth a try! Definitely something new and the star of the night for me. Edamame from kisume is probably the best I’ve tried so far. We dined downstairs tonight during an early seating and we were one of the first people who arrived. Staff was very attentive and explained the menu to us. Loved how they give accurate recommendations on drinks based on our preferences. Appreciate the staff who took our dessert order as well when I asked if I can get a something like a birthday cake. The sign and candle was such a lovely touch! Went beyond my expectations! Got the hazelnut daquoise. Overall a great dining experience for special occasions.

Service to accommodate our diner with dietary requirements was very good. They had a reminder card in front of her and manually marked her menu with items she could not order. For the price paid, the nigiri could have been more draped on the rice than sitting atop.

Super nice food, and great atmosphere just the location it’s not that good. My mum said that it’s the best Japanese restaurant she had ever had in Melbourne. (We had been to a lot of fine dining Japanese restaurants) worth to come back.

One of the best meals I've ever had. This chirashi don made me re-think my whole food preferences as someone who prefers bold and strong taste. I really appreciate its subtle but complex flavour depths. The fish have different kinds of richness and fatty textures, the rice is tangy, and even the veggies added pleasant bitterness to the meal. It made me realise you don't need a lot of salt or umami to make food tasty. Slowing down to enjoy it helps me to appreciate the food more, which is also a good analogy for life. 10/10, food so good it makes me philosophical. The service was also friendly and attentive. I had a great experience and will happily go again.

Kisume was the only upscale Japanese restaurant I could find in the city that offered a vegan version of their set menu and boy, did they deliver! (It's been a couple of days and I'm still thinking about their agedashi tofu and sushi. Also, I'm typically not a fan of sorbet but theirs was creamy and delicious.) We were fortunate to be seated by Yin Chou who took special care of our group who were there to celebrate a bachelor party. The rest of the group (all omnivores) were also in agreeance that the food was sublime and were very satsified with the portions from the 5 course chef's menu (i.e. no one was still hungry afterwards). Shout out also to Sam and Jacob were very prompt in responding to my email enquiries leading up to the night. In short, if you're seeking a chic restaurant for a special occasion, Kisume is well-worth the money.
