Love the food here. Run by Japanese I had high expectations and I was not disappointed. It has the edge to cater to Australian produce and food almost always runs out close to lunch time.

Expect fresh flavours, great sushi, amazing dishes! The food offered can be healthy, wholesome or fried and decadently saucy and comforting!

Highly recommended and try to pop in before the lunchtime rush. A really cool, cheap Japanese eatery in the CBD!

Great place for a quick lunch. Love their brown rice sushi and the curry chicken on rice. This place is always busy with office workers at lunch time but staffs are very efficient so I never had to wait long for my lunch orders. The foods tastes so yummy and healthy.

Approximate cost: $10

The best sushi place I have been to! They have a selection of brown rice sushi and other hot food such as noodle dishes. everything is made fresh. Place gets very busy at lunch time, but worth it!

Approximate cost: $12

Had an excellent vegetable curry with an aromatic, piquant sauce. Aside from its curries, the place is also known for its sushi, teriyaki chicken, tasty burgers and fresh salads. The potato salad features creamy Japanese mayonnaise, which adds a touch of authenticity to the dish.

I've also tried the chicken burger and this is particularly good. The meat is soaked in sake, soy, ginger, and sesame oil, which adds to its flavour and tenderness. The burger was generously sized, with lovely fresh bread and healthy fillings.

The decor is creative and arty, with lines of office workers heading out the door when the (admittedly limited) tables inside fill up.

Purple Peanuts also has an open kitchen, which amps up the entertainment factor for hungry customers.

I will be back.

Awesome Japanese Cafe/Sushi Bar. They do brown rice sushi rolls in addition to the normal white rolls which are really really good for lunch. The hot food is also fabulous... if you want more than your average sushi bar, this is the place to go...
