Taka Sushi and Passion

While dining at Big B's next door, I noticed the happy hour menu posted on the door at Taka Sushi. It was at that moment I knew I needed to come back and check it out. We'd brought the pup so we needed to sit outdoors... and of course it was raining... but luckily the outdoor seating was covered. Happy hour consisted of half off beers, discounted select glasses of wine, hot sakes & Taka vodka seltzer. $5 California and spicy tuna rolls and $4-5 salmon/tuna/hamachi nigiri. And honestly that's all I need to sustain myself LOL. We ended up gorging on nigiri and rolls - but to fill up further, we ordered off the regular dinner menu. The okonomiyaki hit the spot and the sashimi sampler was chef's kiss!The fish quality seemed lower in the happy hour dishes than the sashimi sampler, which of course, makes sense. I will have to come back again for a full dining experience to get a better picture of it all!

Wonderful Customer service and food. The server was really kind. The only drawback would be the 20% tip that is automatically added.

I went here with the family. They got Sushi, and a chicken rice bowl, whereas I got the Taka Ramen. The service was slow, but, it was packed, so I understood. The ambiance was pretty good! I liked it. Personally, my ramen was very.. fishy. I'm not sure of the flavour, but it tasted wrong. I felt sick after it. The Rainbow roll sushi, Diet Coke sushi, and the eel were all delicious (I only tried the rainbow, as I am not a huge sea food fan.) Most will not be getting ramen, and instead will be getting the name sake: Sushi. And for that, it was actually really good. As a non sushi enjoyer, I quite liked what I had. It was very good! Just the right ratio! Also, The Gyoza, which is traditional Japanese style, with Cabbage and all, was phenomenal! Highly suggest it! We got 2 plates of it!Overall, with my Ramen I'd rate it a 2, the rest truly made up for it, and at the end of the day, I actually suggest it!

Spent $83 for five (that's right, five) small sushi rolls. THEY ADDED AN 18% GRATUITY ON THE TO-GO ORDER I PLACED!I can name several sushi spots in the area whom are amazingly better; I only put an order in the location due to work. Two of the five sushi rolls had rather dry rice (not fresh), while the others were either too under seasoned or overly seasoned. The eel and spider rolls were such a disappointment; I feel silly for even trying this place. Never again will I make that mistake. I even called the restaurant back and told them the gratuity was ridiculously high for a to-go order, which was a simple order- nothing extra. All she said was, "sorry... we started doing it to make more money".... Well, you just lost my future business.

Where to start. You would not know it from the name or the outside appearance but this place is a wine lovers dream. They have amazing wines At fantastic prices. Just go sit at the bar and grab a bottle Then there is the food. Practically perfect. All around great time. I will be back

I eat here every week. Usually on Wednesday. This time it was a drizzly Tuesday and it was packed inside because outside was closed. My company is sometimes a close friend, sometimes my teenage, sometimes a combination. Our orders were teriyaki (chicken and broccoli), udon, some rolls, some more rolls and wine and some more wine.If you bring your own wine, it's a $20 corkage but the wine list and in restaurant selection is so good and well priced, you don't need to. Taka San will take care of you if you let him select the sushi!! And the sleeper hit on the menu is the avocado salad - it's really THAT good. Trust me. Try it.

I'm so disappointed that I have to write this. I HATE writing bad reviews... my husband and I are sushi lovers and not sushi rolls, but Nigiri and sashimi. We have traveled all over the country and had sushi at some of the most amazing sushi restaurants. We were so excited to eat here and we're left extremely disappointed in what we received. The fish was fresh, no doubt, so I'll give them credit there. However, I know how most of the fish we got is supposed to taste and it did not taste like ... anything at all. We were both left flabbergasted at how bland it was. I've had sushi from publix that was better.The atmosphere and the service was amazing... but after spending $240.00 without tip (we still tipped fairly bc the ladies were amazing), we will not be going back. I can't stomach that to even see if it was just a "bad batch"

Loves this restaurant, definitely will be returning! It's a little bit on the expensive side I'd say, but nothing too surprising for a sushi restaurant. I highly recommend ordering their tofu, the outside skin is so crispy, but the tofu is so soft and silky! Their sushi was amazing. I had several of their rolls, I'm not even sure what exactly I had because I just asked for the fresh catch of the day and they tasted delicious! The fish that I ordered was just okay, I wouldn't get it again. I found it a little dry and it took them more than 30 minutes to make. The udon was a great end to the meal! The udon was cooked perfectly, super chewy, and the soup was nice and light.I think my favorite part of the restaurant is how friendly the staff was! They were always smiling and extremely polite. I also think it's super cool and unique that their restaurant doubles as a wine shop! Their Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc was delicious, I absolutely recommend, and to buy the bottle was only $14!

I dont get it, the place is always busy so i thought i would try it. yellowtail cheek was overcooked and extremely small. The salmon skin roll barely had salmon skin in it. There's a lot better sushi places I would not recommend this place. The atmosphere is very good and the outside deck is very nice. The food I wouldn't recommend.

The food is always fresh and I love Taka's specials. There service is great and the ambiance is nice & quiet.
