Takumen is a unique restaurant in Long Island City with a "tree house" ambiance and a button to call the server. The menu offers a variety of options, including DST crudo and burrata cheese with ume jam, and edamame with shiso pesto, salt, and kombu. The ramen broth for the Ban ban chicken and Super cilantro ramen is flavorful. The restaurant features friendly service that makes guests feel welcome, with staff like Lert, who remembers favorites and creates a warm atmosphere. The chicken karage rice bowl is a popular choice, offering a generous and tasty portion. The soft serve ice cream, especially the matcha vanilla swirl, is a delightful dessert that surprises with its sweetness. The soft serve shop also offers a special flavor like Hojicha, which has a roasted tea flavor with a hint of vanilla, giving it an extra kick of sweetness. After a stroll by the pier, Takumen is a perfect spot for a quick, satisfying meal or a sweet treat, making it a favorite in the neighborhood.
