Mietta's Review Strategically positioned near the entrance to Village Cinemas, Isseki is ideal for sitting down to a quick lunch-break or a pre-movie snack. The quality was on a par with the many small Japanese takeaways proliferating in the CBD. We were satisfied with our 'Bento B' (a lunchbox of beef on lots of rice, plus teriyaki chicken, grated carrot with mayonnaise and two nigiri zushi), Nabeyaki Udon (chicken, enoki mushrooms, deep-fried bean curd and thick noodles in clear soup) and Unagi (eel and avocado nori roll). Just one complaint: all the cutlery and containers were disposables. Even the Bento was served in a throw-away, compartmentalised plastic tray and the green tea was a tea bag in a styrofoam cup.

Don Don Victoria Super fast, super cheap busy little Japanese eat-in or take-away in two city locations. Good fast food.

Ito Japanese Noodle Cafe Victoria A Japanese diner that is Chinese owned and run, in the middle of the city's cinema district. It's good for a quick bowl of ramen or plate of sushi.
Izakaya Chuji Victoria Unpretentious space serving impressive Japanese food at very reasonable prices. Wonderfully eclectic mix in the clientele.
Kaneda Victoria In the dimly-lit inner reaches of the Mid-City Arcade there is a small sushi restaurant that boasts a beautiful tsunami wave and a steady stream of satisfied customers.
Sushi Masa Victoria The food is traditional Japanese, offering Hako-sushi (boxed sushi) and even better jo-sushi (fancy sushi selection).
Sushi Ten Victoria Sushi Ten's black board menu of Japanese soups and rice dishes supplements its offering. All cheap, served happily and quickly, with the sushi and sashimi being the best bet.

Yamato Victoria The country style Japanese cooking and its tucked away position make Yamato popular with a young adult crowd.
Yu-U Victoria No sign just a blank door. Enter. Go down stairs and find yourself in Japan facing a large bar at which food is served.
