Very popular spot on a Sunday evening – we certainly weren't the only ones who knew about their early bird special between 5-7pm.
The interior is nicely decorated, but squished. On the bright side, we got a chance to sit at the sushi bar and catch a glimpse of the chefs at work.
For starters, we shared the edamame ($4.00), which was decent. For the main course, I chose the avocado roll ($4.00), spicy salmon roll ($5.50), and spicy tuna roll ($5.50), all of which were freshly prepared, but very small. The waiter also gave me a regular salmon roll, instead of spicy. Additionally, note that all regular and special rolls come with wasabi inside – if you're not a wasabi fan, make sure to tell the waiter.
My boyfriend enjoyed the tempura shrimp and vegetable soba noodle bowl ($12.00), which was packed with buckwheat noodles in a deliciously fragrant broth. Only down side was that the tempura coating slid off the veggies and ended up in a mushy lump at the bottom of the bowl.
Overall, we wouldn't go out of our way to return, but our experience was just fine here!
Hits the spot if you're in the area and want a sushi or sashimi fix for a reasonable price.
Salad that comes with the sushi/sashimi combos is better than other places that only do iceberg lettuce with the ginger dressing. Theirs actually had crispy romaine and a soy/ponzu type of dressing which I really enjoyed.
This place can get packed so coming here with a big group might set you up for a wait if you come to dine during prime time dinner hours. Solid place to go if you're a fan of sitting at the sushi bar, dining solo or with a friend.
If you're a sashimi lover like myself, the sashimi deluxe is the way to go. Can satisfy 2 people or could be enough for 1. (check my pic and decide!)
What will keep me coming back here is that their uni is legit and are one of the few places that can make my fave custom maki of uni, ika and shiso!
I came here twice. The food and service haven't failed my expectation so far. I had the sushi and sashimi combination. The sashimi was fresh. The miso soup that came with it was boiling hot, just what I need for the cold weather. I also got the duck tataki. I liked it a lot. The other time I came, I got the early bird special. The portion was decent but I'm a small eater. I also got the spider roll. Overall, I would come back here when I'm craving for sushi
Tiny restaurant located beside the hip hop place. We were seated within 10m, just make sure you get your name down on the list. We got the sushi for two which was more than enough. It came with several nigiri, a choice of rolls, and one hand roll. It was filling and delicious.
Our new go to spot for cheap but good sushi. It's always busy here and there's always at least a wait time of 10-20 minutes. Luckily, we crept in at the right time and got a seat right away, right before peak dinner time.
We ordered the sashimi platter for 2 and it was more than enough. We also had the fried Japanese chicken and the Shishito peppers. The Japanese chicken was very good, probably one of the best karage chicken I've had.
The sashimi platter included a variety of different fish. About 3 cuts of each. The SALMON WAS THE BEST. In retrospect, I would order more of the salmon than the rest of the sashimi. The salmon was very tender and melts in your mouth. Great cuts with the right amount of fat between the layers. Definitely coming back here for the Salmon.
Service was fast and the space was cramped but what can you expect, it's the EV. Try this place!
So this is by no means mind blowing sushi, but will it satisfy a weeknight craving? AB-SO-LUTELY. With relatively low prices, Takahachi is the place to go if you want to down a bunch of soosh and some decent unfiltered sake without breaking your weekly budget. The sushi entree, which comes with 7 pieces and a roll, is $18.50 and will definitely fill you up. The soy sauce and wasabi-heavy salad dressing is a refreshing break from the typical ginger dressing, and the salad uses more than just iceberg lettuce. The fish is fresh, the rice is sweet, and all in all, which nothing is melt in your mouth cray-mazing, if you consider sushi a comfort food like I do, this will blow all of your seamless options out of the water.
Came in at 6:20 on a Tuesday and had no problem getting a table for two right away, but the restaurant filled up right after.
I absolutely love sushi, but I've had better.
I came here on a date one Tuesday night. We were both craving sushi so decided to give this place a shot. Thankfully, it wasn't too busy at around 7pm and got a table right away–but that probably was because we had just missed out on the early bird special.
The food around us looked very good, so we went in with big promises. We decided to go ahead and try the sushi and sashimi combo for two, which also came with a salad and miso soup. I must say, the price was a little steep from other sushi places I've been to, but we did get a tonnn of sushi and sashimi.
Overall, I would say my experience here was alright. Even though they gave you a large variety of sushi/sashimi in the combo, it wasn't as fresh as I would have liked. There weren't any pieces that "wow-ed" me, especially considering the cost. The service was accommodating, which is always a plus, I just felt bad when I felt like they couldn't understand me at times. The place unfortunately felt too cramped. There were times where I felt my elbow bump against the person at the table next to me…a little uncomfortable. It would have been nice to be given a little more personal space. Even though I felt the ambience of the place was a little mediocre, I was too busy paying attention to my wonderfully handsome date who really made the evening the best it could have ever been. 😉
I was craving sashimi but my friend didn't want to go far to eat. To comply with both parties, we opted for this place! We came around 9pm on a Saturday night and were seated immediately.
We ordered the duck tataki and sashimi combo for two. The duck tatami was a bit more chewy than I had liked, but the balsamic sauce that came with it was really good. A pretty decent appetizer to start out with. Our sashimi combo came with sashimi pieces of salmon, tuna and yellowtail; nigiri pieces of shrimp, tuna, white fish, salmon; and tuna and white fish rolls. Overall the quality of the fish was a-okay. It's a little more expensive than whats its worth but what can do you do when you have cravings and don't wanna travel far? A lot of people seem to be raving about their early bird special (happy hour?), so maybe with those cheaper prices its better. Also our hot green tea tasted sooooo watered down :/
Takahachi isn't a bad place, sushi quality isn't the best, but not bad. My sashimi craving was satisfied so yay!
