Sushi Takuma

Had a wonderful time sitting at the counter enjoying a sushi feast and show! All the delicious pieces were chosen and expertly prepared by chefu Takuma, who handed them to us one by one. We exchanged smiles and laughs with a lovely japanese couple who seemed to be regulars at this tiny and friendly ...place. Great sake selection! Reservation strongly recommended. Great night!

We had the 4 course menu, 8 small plates plus 8 sushi pieces per person. The ingredients were awesomely fresh and delicious (I could t pick one) best sushi I have ever had in a long time! The service was extremely good, one of the waitress was learning Spanish, our lenguaje, and she was making the e...ffort to explain all the different dishes in Spanish for us. We went for the most expensive menu but unfortunately it did t include Kobe meat. Personally I would go back a million times but would not take the set menu.

Since I went there with 1 toddler and 1 infant, I checked and saw this restaurant was rated child friendly. But when we arrived there, the staff looked noticeable annoyed when she saw our kids. While we were waiting for the food, my kid played with toys and she immidiately walked in and rudely said ...it was a bit noisy and we put the toys away immidiately. And when my infant started being cranky, she came in said can I bring my baby outside the street and wait until she was quiet again. During our dinner, every 5 minute she would peep in our room to see if our kids make any noise. We ended up leaving in the middle since cant stand eating in fear of being kicked out for any noise or action from my kids. The food was average only or maybe due to the bad amostphere. Never expected this kind of service especially from a country like Japan.

Me and my wife are big fans of omakase style dining and decided to try out sushi takuma based on reviews online for our wedding anniversary. In particular, we are huge fans of Edo style sushi having tried numerous sushiyas on our trips to tokyo, so upon entering the sushi takuma, we requested for an... omakase that weighed more heavily on nigiri than grilled dishes which we agreed would cost us JPY6000 per person. Unfortunately what followed was one of the worst Japanese sushi dining experiences we have had in Japan. The chef proceeded to prepare a plate of the most generic sushi (10 pieces) laid out as on a single platter whilst diners around us were served on a dish by dish basis in typical omakase fashion. Not only were they given an explanation on each dish but they were also offered more exotic varieties of fish as we had expected. Having concluded our meal in under 20 minutes, we were left to finish our bottle of wine whilst watching other diners enjoy the experience we expected to have. Not only were the other diners charged the same as us (omakase ranges from JPY5k-9k here) but in our excess time we actually noticed that ordering each piece of sushi we were provided in isolation would've actually resulted in a cheaper alternative to the meal we were served. I cannot say if this treatment was because we were not local Japanese for sure but I do hope that anybody else celebrating an occasion of similar importance would seriously consider twice before trusting their dining experience to a chef that would be willing to be careless with a meal that is by no means cheap. To elaborate on some of the finer details: The waitress spoke perfect english and as such i dont think much was lost in translation No wasabi was offered to us or included in our sushi Ultimately, as many of you who would be willing to read this far would know - making nigiri sushi is an art form. In terms of visuals, very little distinguishes high end sushi from conveyor belt varieties, but once tasted, there is very little to hide behind. The sushi made on this night had no care put into it whatsoever and could easily resemble the variants found at any affordable sushiya in Japan. I have no doubt the chef is capable of more, I even witnessed it being served to patrons adjacent to me. Unfortunately, this is the nature of omakase and the trust you place in a chef's judgement on any given night. I wish you all much better luck than I had, i for one am headed to the nearest ramen joint to forget this experience as soon as I can.
