5. Kokumai

Translating to 'black rice' in Japanese, Kokumai are dishing out serious Tokyo vibes right here in our backyard. Whether you're more of a sushi train aficionado (perfect for a quick but sublime bite) or you're all about that omakase experience, Kokumai have got you covered.

But hold up, it's not just about the sushi – though let's be real, that's a big draw. They're also serving up some seriously delish poke bowls, mouth-watering nigiri, and signature rolls that'll have you coming back for more. Think fresh tuna mingling with cucumber, a pop of tobiko, and a zesty kick of Kokumai spicy sauce. Or maybe you're into the crunch of prawn tempura wrapped with cucumber, creamy avo, more of that tobiko, and a drizzle of rich teriyaki sauce. Oh, and for those who like it hot, the miso toothfish is a must-try.
