Great sushi and we loved our waiter. I came with a group and everyone was very satisfied with what they got and the service.
I recommend the spicy tuna, and if you are brave let the chef choose the type of sushi you get.
The quality of their sashimi is one of the freshest that I know. Presentation is also nice. There’s no doubt about their food. We were so pleased with this place the first time when we were there a few years ago, we made sure to come back here this time in San Diego.
While the food quality remains excellent, the atmosphere was not the same. Although most of the sushi chefs were still Japanese, all waiters were different now. The decor and wait staff have lost the Japanese touch. Don’t get me wrong. The waiters were still doing a fine job, but just had different styles I suppose. Plus their prices seemed to have gone up as well. Price tag is too high even for excellent food quality like theirs.
Simple, no frills Sushi joint with experienced chefs. Not the best Japanese food in Gaslamp but overall OK. They charge $8 for a tiny side of fresh Wasabi which really should come with the food at this price.
Not a cheap sushi place for sure! Small place …. Love the bar seating directly where the prepare the food. I had very high expectations from this place (recommended by a friend) and it actually met the expectations as food quality, preparation, and taste. Why not 5 stars …. I have been in an even better one that it is still for me the #1.
Bottom line … if you like shush and you can appreciate the taste of it and different qualities, tastes and experience…. This is a place to go.
Really perfect dinner- casual but excellent sushi. Service excellent. We had our toddler and we sat outside and everyone had a great time. Amaebi nigiri so good, with a fun deep fry on the head!
Hands down some of the best sushi I’ve ever had in my life. Great laid back atmosphere and very friendly/knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend getting a seat at the counter.
Located in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter (5th and Market) Taka is a small sushi spot with a full bar. This was my first time here because whenever I walk by, the place is packed. Yesterday a buddy and myself walked by and were able to get two seats at the bar. Service was great (was fun to just order straight from the chef) and friendly, the sushi rolls were on point and made quick, the house Saki was tasty and the seaweed salad was delicious (and had the nicest presentation I’ve seen for a seaweed salad). When in the Gaslamp, Taka is a must if craving some sushi. Call ahead to see if there’s any availability or reservations.
Incredible fresh and tasty sushi! Very friendly staff! Have a seat at the bar and follow the recommendations of the sushi chefs. Don’t miss the tuna tar tar.
Food was excellent. The taka toro roll is worth the detour. Got great advice from sushi chef as the bar.
Food is really good and tasty. Waiter Mario was really helpful and know what he was talking about. Fish is a good quality. Amazing. BUT when you get in you smell tobacco. Bothering and disgusting. Nobody was smoking so I guess the owner may smoke on closing hours.
