Takibi is a wonderful restaurant located in the back of Snow Peak, serving Asian cuisine. The restaurant boasts an open kitchen and warm toned lights, creating a cozy atmosphere. The service is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who provide great options and recommendations. The menu offers a variety of dishes, including vegan options such as falafel and kitsune udon, which are delicious and well-paired. The restaurant also serves non-vegan dishes like chicken, sea bass, sweet potatoes, lamb, and beef. The atmosphere is upscale and comfortable, with cedar beams, comfortable chairs, and noise-protection panels creating a pleasant dining space.
The food is tasty, and the restaurant has a nice ambiance, but service can sometimes be inconsistent. The chef and general manager work hard to improve the customer experience. There is a 7-course omakase menu with dishes like sauteed shitake mushrooms, sashimi, yellowtail fish, cedar plank salmon, black cod, and ribeye with dashi rice. Portions may vary, and additional utensils might be needed for some dishes. The ramen, a traditional Japanese "Chuka Soba," is just okay in taste. Overall, Takibi offers a good dining experience, but customers should be aware of potential service issues.
Recent reviews highlight the delicious ramen, though portion sizes can be small, such as only one piece of chasiu. Visitors note that on rainy days, only outdoor tables are available despite the weather. The restaurant is connected to the Snow Peak store, making for a nice walk around the store after lunch. Guests also praise the beautifully designed interior, stylish yet welcoming, and the excellent sashimi and cod dishes, which are standout highlights. The atmosphere is lively with good music, creating a cool energy. The staff, especially a server named Bryan, is attentive and friendly, making the experience memorable. Some mention that the restrooms could be improved with reed diffusers, but overall, the restaurant is highly recommended for great sushi and a memorable night out, especially for celebrating special occasions like anniversaries.
