    It was a a cool evening to dine outdoors but with the portable gas fire torches, my wife and I were comfortable. We were only looking for a light bite so my wife ordered the edamame and a California roll. I ordered Miso soup and a sampling of nigiri. The edamame was fresh with a light snap when biting and perfectly, lightly salted. The Miso broth was hot and hearty. Perfect on this cool Florida night. She told me she loved her California roll and I thought my nigiri was delicious. Dock fresh with brilliant colors. I chose the tuna, yellowtail and golden eye snapper. I'd order the same thing again in a heartbeat, but there were so many other items I'd like to try next time. She ordered a glass of champaign (by the glass) and didn't particularly care for it. Too dry she said. I chose a drink that is their spin on an old fashioned. (I forget the name) but it had ginger in it and it was delicious. Small side note, the brand of still water they serve is Mountain Valley. You don't see this brand very often but it was fantastic. So refreshing and crisp mouthfeel. I LOVE Acgua Panna and keep it at home but I may switch it up and try this brand of spring water if I ever see it in a store or online. We had a great experience at Takato and look forward to our next time here.

    We sat in the bar area to enjoy the music. So as expected it was a little loud, which only added to the ambiance. Cocktails were superb and they offered the best Calamari I’ve had in Florida. Very light, not greasy, not over breaded. Entrees were also delicious and they served a generous portion. Service was exceptional. I highly recommend

    Cafe Martorano has been my favorite restaurant anywhere in the world for over 20 years. Even after all this time, I am never disappointed. The veal Sinatra was out of this world. Keep it up Steve. Your restaurant is amazing.
