Neko Neko - Melbourne

I haven't been here for ages according to my initial review which is odd as I know I've eaten inside this restuarant since 2017! <br/ <br/ Anyway tonight I had a vegan gyozas, spicy tofu ramen, tan tan sesame creamy ramen and a mini vegan bean and potato burger. <br/ <br/ To start, the vegan gyozas were absolutely delicious. Soft skins and a yummy filling.<br/ <br/ The vegan mini bean and potato burger was nice, but it needed some more sauce for me.<br/ <br/ My spicy ramen was missing some spice but it was full of soy caramel flavoured soup base which was absolutely amaaazing! The ramen had cashews, mushrooms and other goodies. This was a major highlight.<br/ <br/ My partner had the vegan tan tan sesame creamy ramen which was texturally really tasty and full of full of vegetables.<br/ <br/ With home delivery this place is awesome and definitely worth trying.<br/ <br/ Previous review <br/ December 2017<br/ Hungry tonight I really wanted some Japanese. I ordered some Broadbill tuna which came in a bento box and OMGosh it was amazing!!! The vegies and sides that came with it were so fresh and tasty that they just melted in my mouth. <br/ <br/ The only improvement that I could suggest was that the tuna was a little dry, maybe it was a little over cooked?? The accompanying sauce was excellent though. <br/ <br/ My partner had a vegan ramen which I tasted and it was excellent, once again the flavours worked so well, and the broth was amazing!! Just delicious... I am sooo trying that next time! <br/ <br/ This is one amazing restaurant, I can see why it was so packed tonight. This place is a MUST visit. Wow.

Very stylish and cosy place to eat. The foods were yummy. However, the waiting time for food to come was much longer than other restaurants. Guess the chef put a lot of love to the food?

The food here is delicious, not to mention looks so pleasing on the plate! My friend had the salmon while I had the sword fish. Couldn’t recommend enough. Such a great little spot.

There's something about Japanese food that is simple but wholesome, clean and delicious.<br/ <br/ Ordered:<br/ Panko Crispy Crumbed Salmon with wasabi tartar sauce in a neko neko teishoku meal set: served with 8 kinds of traditional and modern vegan osozai side dish) mixed black and brown rice $28.00)<br/ Matcha Soy Latte $6.00)<br/ <br/ Review:<br/ The food was awesome. The crispy salmon was unbelievably light in my mouth, with a tartar sauce that complimented it well.<br/ <br/ The 8 kinds of sides were pickled/dressed up/ in various stages of flavour. Each gave a different variation to the whole dish essentially a whole different experience that you choose. Being able to have an adventure with my food is everything I want.<br/ <br/ Matcha Soy Latte is one of the best I've had. Creamy and packed full of flavour. The bottle is heated and you use the paper cup to lessen the heat and pour it into the stone cup... such an interesting experience! Also gives Neko Neko the flexibility to serve it hot or cold.<br/ <br/ Service was amazing. Kind lady with kind eyes and a great help in recommending the most popular dish. The inside is so Melbourne great detailed interior with an abundance of natural light.<br/ <br/ Neko neko is a fantastic place with great food, great aesthetics and a great vibe. Highly recommend and worth traveling for!

Quit quacking about hitting up other Japanese restaurants, this is it.If you come at the wrong time, you don't get a seat, like it.If you get a seat it is a better win than the lottery.This menu is inspired. This food is exceptional. The presentation is dope.For casual service their care is wonderful.The style is tasteful.I eat here whenever I am in the area and tables are open, you should do the same
