Our whole group of 4 enjoyed are first time there. Ordering from a tablet was interesting. Especially after a few drinks. We are going back though. Cheers!

Lunch menu was minimal with a limited selection to choose from. No sushi 🍣... just ramen and skewers.

Brought my family on a Monday to celebrate our wedding anniversary and we had a great time. The food was delicious! Definitely recommend the spareribs! One thing I did not like was getting charged $32 for 2 salmon cut rolls. At any sushi restaurant, this traditional cut roll would be 8-9 dollars a roll. I know because my daughter orders this every time. I definitely felt this was a scam. I get it wasn't on the menu but it is not a premium $16 roll. Overall, a good experience with a slight bad taste in my mouth.

The moment you step inside, you are greeted by an immersive display of modern Ukiyo-e style painting. Taberu's menu is an ode to Japanese street food traditions, elevated through creative plating, technique, and balance. Whether you are a sashimi purist or an adventurous izakaya grazer, you will find your flavor.

Not impressed. Disorganized and unattentive staff. Food was expensive and not particularly good.

I really enjoyed this restaurant — every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious. We started with oysters, and they were huge — gorgeous, royal-sized, and so fresh. The ramen was excellent; we tried two different kinds, and both were rich and flavorful. For dessert, we had a matcha cake and a tiramisu, both of which were outstanding. We also ordered caviar and beef, and again, everything was perfectly prepared.

The service deserves special mention — the waiters were attentive and friendly, and the host and staff made us feel very welcome. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the experience and would gladly come back.

We were little disappointed with our experience. The sushi quality was poor the chirashi bowl had the least amount of fish I’ve ever seen, and what was there tasted not as fresh. The hanger steak was extremely chewy and poorly seasoned, and the rolls were mostly rice with very little fish. The only dish we enjoyed was the steak yakiniku. Unfortunately, the service was also very slow, and our food came out one item at a time with long waits in between. Cocktails were reasonably priced and tasted good. Another good thing was their wasabi tasted close to real one instead of the horseradish.

Value for money is close to zero, with this kind of price, we get no service. The ordering system is inefficient and malfunction. Quality of fish is substandard. Very limited choice on wine. Even the rice is under cook. Even the price is halved, I would not come back. No wonder there is no one there on a Friday night. Make me feel the reviews above may be rigged. Very very disappointed.

Very high price for the quality of the food. The quality of fish was not high, the sushi had a lot of sauce, and the rice was undercooked. The ordering system is completely self serve and did not work at first.

U feel like in a low end self service joint instead of a $80 per head meal. Very little value for money. They have no idea what Japanese food is like, just lots of deep fried and sauces, sushi is not fresh, very poor quality. Even the rice is undercooked. Very limited choice in wine,only one in each of red and white and no sparkling wine. No wonder there's hardly any ppl there on a Friday night. I would not come back even the price is halved. I believe their high rating is rigged, no way they have can be above 4, not to mention 4.7. Worst dining experience ever, I warn any who considered going there. I usually don't leave review but this is a horror experience I want ppl to avoid.

The food is all excellent, the service exactly what it should be (neither intrusive or absent), and a wide variety of price points that should satisfy any budget. Highly recommended - We’ll definitely be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Food was way better than i expected it to be. Like awesome for what it was for late night. Ive been to these in Japan they did very very well. Savior was seriously one of the best waiters that man needs to be some place better than waiting on us. He made the experience completely come together. Yall are blessed to have him
