Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Downtown Windsor

Fantastic tasting menu with wine pairings. A top class experience, wonderful staff, amazing chef and ambiance. This was our second time to enjoy the tasting menu and if you want a special experience we highly recommend you try it!

Russell, our waiter, was the nicest human but also had great recommendations. Filet is 10/10. Lamb chops, very good. Drinks were amazing. They turned down the music a little for our larger table to hear each other. Vibes were lovely and highly recommend this spot.

Couple things…they offer no valet parking. You have to park across the street for $20. We ordered 2 appetizers- Calamari and Ahi Tuna…both very good. I had the Sea Bass and my daughter had the Crab Cakes which were both very good. Unfortunately, my wife ordered the brick chicken which was overcooked and dry and offered zero flavor. Our waitress didn’t realize that my wife ate less than 10% of her meal and honestly wasn’t really attentive all night. I’d go back, but I’d sit at the bar and not order the chicken.

In a city that is developing a nationwide reputation for creative cuisine, Takoi remains a benchmark. We used this dinner to introduce four friends — all with significant “foodie” bona fides — to Takoi and they were all blown away. The theme is dominantly Thai. I am cautious about introducing the word, “fusion,” because it has been so bastardized. But Takoi revives the original meaning, staying true to its roots while adding distinctive new flavor tones and textures that can take you by surprise. From start to finish, each dish seemed to outdo the prior one, from the carrots to the noodles to the sea bream. Add wonderful service and Takoi remains a delight everyone needs to experience.

Beautiful ambiance and a wonderful and attentive bar tenders!
