Is it the last oud?
How many grains of rice are in sushi?
sheep
If you don't have rice, you shouldn't take the order..
Even the udon noodles... are all male.
Aside from Sarada, who appears for the first time,
Not a Japanese restaurant

The restaurant hours according to google was closing at 10 pm. We arrived at the restaurant for dinner at 9 pm and upon arrival he rudely told us that it was closed and for us to leave. In the restaurant there were free tables and also more people dining and they were bringing dishes out of the kitchen. people like that should not be face to face with the public.

Great mom and pop sushi spot. A hard working couple that produce great food, in a quaint environment.Edit: Already 5 stars, but wanted to add that I left a sentimental item there and realized it after leaving town. Gave them a ring and they had held onto it for me. They ended up shipping it out to me. Appreciate these people!

We were looking for sushi and Japanese food and stumbled across Takara because it was within walking distance from where we were staying. Unfortunately we never ate the food and walked out after being seated....terrible service and atmosphere. In the short time we sat there......the lady running the joint turned away a family that wanted to sit at the sushi bar, her words "no kids", then when she cam to take our order she told us that any hot food would take a long time since she would be the one cooking it, her delivery was not accommodating. We asked for a minute to think about menu options. While we considered other choices a family of 3 walk in and she proceeds to tell them she only has tables for 2, mind you this place has ~5 tables for 2 + a sushi bar for 6-7, only 3 tables were occupied so she had room. The father persisted and pulled up a chair and they were seated. She then tells them she wo t be able to get to them for a lo g time because of the other tables....b.s! It was this behavior that really turned us off, this lady was basically telling all customers she didn't want to work for the evening, order sushi only, didn't want families, and was almost pushing customers she didn't like out the door. Never going back.

Only 8 chairs total, they rejected us claiming they cannot serve 6 ppl even we say we can sit separately.

BEST AUTHENTIC SUSHI IN TOWN!! We look forward to seeing Mafumi every week!

This review is solely based on the food. We absolutely loved it: fresh, authentic sushi! Would definitely come back.
