This place has really great food, both sushi and lunches and soups. If you want to get best value for your money, try the lunch offers. There are some really amazing fish available at very good prices (like merlin), you can choose freely between different fish and vegetable sushi. Very clean and quiet, nobody jumps on the people passing by... More

Located in Padma Street, Take II is an unassuming shopfront restaurant among the many in this busy part of Legian. Inside, the decor is pleasing and there are several options for seating ranging from the shared tepanyaki table to individual tables with or without wells for the legs. We chose the traditional table with room for the legs to dangle... More

Well what can I say, this was my favourite night out in Bali. The entertainment from the chef was a great highlight to the night and the fact they get the patrons involved too. We went with another family and we all enjoyed ourselves and all agreed it was our favourite restaurant for the holiday. Will definitely be trying this... More

We 11 persons spend the night there for dinner. Orders from omurice, sushi, sashimi, and bento. The taste was average as Japanese restaurant, but more pricey than Sushi Tei or its peers. I don't know but 2 of us who ate Take II Bento got stomachache the day after, maybe the fish isn't too fresh

The sushi here was pretty good - better than in a lot of Sydney restaurants. The pieces of fish are a very good size and quality (don't be put off by the photos of the tuna sushi in the menu as for some reason they look a dark brown colour). The menu has about 100 dishes to choose from but... More

From the moment we walked in the door greeted by 'massi massi' we enjoyed amazing service and atmosphere. The menu was extensive and the tepanyaki excellent. Best fried rice I have ever had. My husband even got some instruction from the chef on tepanyaki tricks. Large servings and good value for money. Don't miss it!

We dined at night. The place was empty besides 2 other people, we were seated upstairs in the traditional seated area, we were given fresh cold towels to freshen up, 3 complimentary mini dishes which is a nice touch. The service was good, orders repeated back to you before they leave the table. The food was as good as you... More
