NICE sushi restaurant in Melbourne

I want to buy my daughter a Christmas gift certificate for a good sushi restaurant in Melbourne. She lives there and I live in the States. I need a website or at least a phone number to buy this certificate with a credit card. Thanks so much.

    1. Onegai shimasu! Steve, what do you mean by 'nice'. Do you mean good, or do you mean smart? - I realise you mean a restaurant rather than a hole in the wall.

      Streets ahead of everything else is Shira Nui, but it is in Glen Waverley, a suburb about 20km SE of the CBD. It is not difficult to get to from the city, but it depends where your niece lives - do you know?

      After that, you are into good Japanese restaurants with mixed menus - Yu-u on Flinders Lane (CBD) and KoKo (casino) are the ones I hear mentioned most.

          Thanks for the reply. She lives in Bentleigh VIC but they have a car.

              In Bentleigh, she is almost there, so definitely shira nui. Sushi and sashimi is the way to go, don't get caught up in the ala carte stuff

              When you or she actually books, make sure you get a seat at the sushi bar rather than the restaurant proper. Their phone number is +61 (for australia) 3 (for melbourne) 9886 7755
