This is still one of our favorite places in Ft. Lauderdale. Food is always delicious, service is great and the lively atmosphere make it for a great outing. If you are in the area, this is a great place to stop by for a bite and drink. Cheers!

During our last dining experience here in June 2024, we were very disappointed since unfortunately we had a food preparation problem. I called the next day to discuss it with the manager, she apologized and asked us to please dine with them again, since the problem would be addressed. We did give them another try last night, and we are glad we did!! Our appetizers, entrees, beverages were all delicious, creatively prepared with great presentation and professionally served. A terrific restaurant learns and improves from mistakes, and we appreciate their professionalism and find them to continue being innovative and special.

I love this restaurant! Its a wonderful taste experience. You close your eyes and each taste takes you somewhere diffeent. The truffle edame is to die for! The popcorn in chili sauce which is graits is a delight. The sticky Chino ribs yun. And the ah tuna fresh and tasty. We split forur deserts at our table and they were all good. Love this place.

Takato never disappoints. Food and staff were amazing. We had lamb chops,sea bass, kimchi fried rice, shrimp fried rice, California roll, spicy tuna roll, yellowtail sashimi, machine, chocolate lava cake, specialty martini, cosmo, and a spicy margarita. Everything was amazing. The only bad part is this place seems to attract screaming kids with entitled parents with no regard and don't do anything. Not that the restaurant can help that but it is frustrating and definitely has an effect on the ambiance. Regardless, this is definitely one of the top restaurants in Ft. Lauderdale with amazing sushi and so much more.

Authentic and tasty Mexican food. Much better than any chain.
