Taku

Exceptional seafood, exceptional service at a cozy sushi counter. (Perhaps visitor-centric, but this is the case for most fine dining without a personal introduction or fluency in Japanese.) our second visit, and as good as we remembered!

Mid-sold and shoved off into an “Annex”. My 6th visit to this restaurant - the 5 previous have been impeccable. I have prioritised and frequented this restaurant because of the ambience of the restaurant, the sommelier and the buzz, as well as the great quality of food. We arrived this time to ...be told that we were to be shunted into an “Annex” in another building across the street. A sterile, 6 seat counter with none of the aforementioned atmosphere. I absolutely had not booked in this location and had not been told before arriving. The whole experience was a fraction of the one that I had enjoyed previously and frankly scandalous. I visit Tokyo 2/3 times a year, pre-book and prepay this place and advertise it to all of my food-loving friends. This is really shameful behaviour and I am shocked at the exploitation of a regular customer.

When you make a reservation in one of the most expensive sushi restaurants in Tokyo, you don't expect to be seated in the annex of the main restaurant, which has a wine list of 4 bottles, as opposed to the long list if the original one. This is outrageous! I did not gave a 1 because our sushi che...f was great and did his best to overcome my anger but this restaurant, whose address was given to me by the head of the Michelin guide in Japan, is a pale memory of its glorious past.

Came here as a solo traveler, chefs explained each course in English, were very welcoming and attentive. I am a lefty and they took note right away. They even have a book with pictures of each fish. Chefs conversed more with Japanese /local customers. The food was amazing. Quality of the white fish ...(steamed or raw) was particularly the best. Come hungry because it’s a lot of food (at least 25 courses). You can order more at the end if you’d like. Easy to reserve a seat online in advance through OMAKASE JapanEatinerary.
