My brother’s wife passed away unexpectedly, and Taisho was her favorite restaurant. We needed a place for people to gather after the memorial and my brother, her widower, felt strongly about it being Taisho. If you’ve ever had the awful task of planning a surprise memorial, you’ll know it’s a miserable, sad, and chaotic mess. Taisho went out of their way to make it easier on us. They dealt with surprises and changes. They met our needs even when it was especially difficult...

This is probably the most authentic Japanese restaurant I’ve found in Buffalo. Try their sushi boat, wasabi octopus, and pork cutlet rice — they taste just like what I had in Japan! It’s a great spot for company gatherings too. We ordered a variety of dishes and shared them, which made it fun to try everything. Big thanks to Tiffany for taking such good care of us — you can really feel how much she values every customer.

Please try their sashimi — it literally shines! I was so pleasantly surprised. The store is always clean and cozy — easily one of my top 3 spots in Buffalo. Special thanks to manager Tiffany, who is super friendly and makes every visit a great experience!
