AI Summary

A tiny Blackburn takeaway turning out restaurant-grade sashimi and bento from a husband-and-wife team.

A humble, no-frills shopfront beside Blackburn South station with a couple of tables, quietly run by an experienced Japanese chef and their partner.

Sashimi and hand rolls cut fresh to order, and a Japanese potato salad reviewers repeatedly call addictive.

Reviewers with Tokyo experience call the food genuinely authentic, and note the chef's background traces to a respected Melbourne Akita restaurant.

Most reviewers call it very reasonably priced for the quality, though a couple flagged the $30 chirashi and small starter portions as pricey for a takeaway.
