    This was my 4th time dining at Takato. The food is amazing. Their food is so fresh & their portions are generous! The nigiri is some of the best I’ve had. My favorite things are the Yellowtail nigiri, the Kimchi Fried Rice & the salmon avocado roll.

    Takato was amazing! The atmosphere was beyond beautiful, the dimmed light, fire to keep guests warm, really added to the ambiance, made it more intimate. Our server was Amanda, she answered all our questions, was knowledgeable of everything and made sure to check on us routinely. The food was great. Truly amazing, you can tell the ingredients were quality selections. The strawberry cheesecake was delicious, shaved ice instead of ice cream made it lighter and easier to eat more of, the fresh strawberries and the strawberry syrup on top were truly fresh and made the desert all the more enjoyable. I will definitely be back!

    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.

    Takato’s is an exceptional restaurant. From the moment you enter their service was impeccable. We had an amazing table outside with a spectacular view of the ocean. The drinks were delicious and the food divine! I highly recommend the lamb chops!
