This place is a hidden gem. The Sushi Rolls are hands down the best in Tyler and the service is fantastic. Highly recommend to any sushi lover!

The food is great here. They pay extremely close attention to detail.The service is well above average. I rarely give 5 stars for service anyways.This is a family owned place, instagram worthy, and they really care about your experience here.If you haven’t tried takara you are missing out on one of Tyler Texas’s hidden treasures.Eat here, support local, and enjoy an amazing meal.Highly recommend almost everything on their menu.

The raw salmon was mushy and the seaweed wrap was very chewy. There is no ambiance. The staff was friendly and efficient.

Always drove by this small spot. It was so easy to miss, but I finally stopped in after a friend showed me a picture. Cute entrance and very nicely designed interior. Tina, the lady behind the counter, was very helpful with suggestions. Tried the Deluxe Bento Salmon Teriyaki per her suggestion. The California roll that came with it was very good. Avocado was nice and green, not oxidized. The steamed gyozas were wonderful with their sauce. Salad was crunchy and fresh, and the peanut dressing was killer. Tempura vegetables had a great coating and were crispy. And of course. The salmon teriyaki and rice were amazing. The rice was fresh and sticky enough to pick up with chopsticks, and the salmon flaked amazingly. They even have a little piano in the center for guests to play ( if you know how to, of course). Will definitely be back on a weekend with my friends to show them this cool spot. Shame it wasn't busier. They deserve more attentionTldr: The food was very good, and the atmosphere was chill and relaxing. Felt a little empty at 2 pm on a Thursday, but that's to be expected. Hopefully, they are busy next time I go

Delicious and fresh food with very friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere! They have the BEST takoyaki in Tyler! Will definitely be back many more times!
I got the curry chicken katsudon, and it was fabulous. The breading was nice and crispy, but the sauce was the star. Flavorful and had a thick consistency that really coated the bites well. The tempura breading on the vegetables was light and fluffy, even after the car ride home in the togo box, nothing was soggy. The gyoza were little pops of flavor that I will be back for too. I highly recommend Takara, and since I only was able to eat half of what I ordered, I have food for tomorrow as well. Great value and stellar food!
