    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.

    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.

    The food and experience was outstanding. We had the fried mini meatballs which were off the charts delicious and pizza for an appetizer which also was fantastic. For our main dish I had the veal chop on the bone parmigiana which was tender and so tasty and my wife had spaghetti DOP which she loved. Dessert was the waffle with ice cream which complimented our evening perfectly. Another outstanding night at Martoranos. Thank you Steve and Merry Christmas
