Taku

Great quality fish and attentive service. Unfortunately, I felt extremely ill at the very rapid pacing of the 20 dishes in around hour! I had to skip the last few dishes. Instead of being a special experience and good memory this ended up being an unpleasant one. I’ve enjoyed Michelin starred sushi omakase before and was disappointed overall with this one given the price.

What an incredible experience! This is a must ! This Michelin-star restaurant offers much more than just a fine dining experience - we spent tremendous evening with a private chef who was guiding us through the whole dinner as we were learning more about sushi and Japanese culture. It was unforgettable night - thank you to all staff for absolutely delicious dinner.

Thank you Chef Satoshi Ogura for the one of the most memorable meals we had in Japan. The rice, the fish, the preparation, the presentation, and the pictures to explain each course were awe-inspiring. We were at a loss for words by the end of the meal. We've had hundreds of NYC sushi omakase meals, and this felt like we had finally reached the Holy Grail.

I think the only thing I have to do to express how great it was is to copy/paste what I wrote the the Michelin Guide after our visit: «  Dear Michelin guide staff. We wanted to inform you that we had dinner recently at the Nishi-azabu Taku restaurant in Tokyo. We were a family of six and we were welcomed and served by Master Satishi Ogura in one of the private room. His omakase meal was THE best we never had had and we are a family of Gourmet Foodies! I also asked him if he could propose for some of us a pairing with Japanese Sake and it was each time a perfect match. He took the time to explain to us, by showing picture, what fish we were eating! The quality and innovative side of some of the sushi’s were wonderful. We strongly suggest to you to revise your one star rating to a 2-stars rating! Thanks you! » To make a long story short… it was an awesome experience!
