10/10 it was my first time coming here to celebrate my birthday with my friends and absolutely everything we ordered was delicious. The salmon tacos, kingfish, wagyu tartare, chicken bao, green beans, miso barramundi just to name a few were all so tasty 🍣🥰

First time here and totally loved it. Had the 'Date Night' dinner for 2, not only great value but excellent food. The Sushi / Sashimi platter had to be the best we have had, everything on the plate was delicious and different from any other venue. The corn fritters are just delightful from the first bite you know they are a winner. Sharing was a problem as it was so good! The staff are young, polite and enthusiastic, best thing is they know their product.

Food and service was out of this world. The pumpkin gnocchi, in a French/ Japanese restaurant, was the best I have ever eaten. The Bansho oysters were fantastic. Together with the scallops. Drink prices reasonable, but not a cheap night out.

My daughter and I had a delicious meal with great service on our way out to the Ballet. I’ve been to Yakimono many times and it’s always been excellent.

An exquisite and memorable dining experience where every dish tells a story. The food, presentation, and flavours were exceptional, making every moment special. More than just a meal, it was an experience worth remembering.

Honestly can’t tell you which was my favourite dish because every single course smashed it out of the park. This was the most memorable dining experience I’ve had in a Melbourne restaurant and am looking forward to many more visits in the future.

    I am a returning customer. Everything was exceptional when dining at bounty of the sun. Chicken nanban and kingfish sashimi was terrific! Appreciate the staff for the warm hospitality and would definitely come back again soon!
