This was our first omakase experience and wow it did not disappoint. I consider this a must go if you are able. Everything was perfect!
High quality and fresh sushi located just up the hill from the mall in Kaanapali. Takumi is so good it made my young daughters sushi lovers! Thank you
Absolutely incredible experience! Everything was so fresh and delicious. The omakase was the best we ever had in our entire lives. Holy moly you HAVE to go if you can.

Takumi is a highly recommended sushi restaurant known for its authentic omakase experience. The restaurant offers a traditional Japanese sushi style that focuses on the freshness and quality of the fish, with little to no overwhelming sauces. The omakase, priced at $199 per person, is an intimate and relaxing experience, with a small indoor space reserved exclusively for this purpose. The limited seating allows the chef to showcase their skills and create a calm, quiet atmosphere, perfect for enjoying each dish.
Each dish is skillfully prepared in front of diners, with the chef explaining the fish's origin and expected flavors. The fish is extremely fresh, and the nigiri stand out, especially the Uni with Truffle Salt and seared Toro, which are considered some of the best the reviewers have ever had. The chawanmushi is also praised for being perfectly cooked and seasoned. Service is attentive and seamless, with a dedicated waitress providing refills and answering questions without interrupting the chef’s performance.
The ambiance is quiet, relaxing, and ideal for a special occasion or a unique culinary experience. While the indoor area is small and reservation-only, Takumi also offers outdoor seating with a more casual atmosphere. The restaurant is praised for its high-quality, fresh, and artistically presented sushi, making it a top choice for sushi lovers seeking an authentic omakase experience. Despite some minor criticisms about reservation difficulty and rice texture, overall, Takumi delivers a memorable dining experience worth the price.
