    We had yet another amazing experience at Takato. We were lucky enough to be served by Mateo. We had an unforgettable experience once before when he served us. I had forgotten my reading glasses and embarrassing could not read the menu in front of a girl I just started to date. Mateo put his hand on my shoulder and said no worries I’ve got this. He literally ordered an array of many different items each one tasting better than the last for the most amazing experience we’ve ever had dining. On Friday night two years later with the same girl we were blessed enough the have Mateo again as our server. Even though I remembered my glasses we asked him to do his magic again. The experience was incredible. He came over each time a different plate would arrive to our table. He explained each dish in detail. Our drinks and water glasses never ran dry. He finished our evening with decaf cappuccinos and of course the ice cream roll. We cannot say enough about Mateo and his service. He clearly is amazing at his career and represents Takato as if he is an owner. The food is spectacular. The atmosphere incredible but Mateo seals the deal for us. We will be back again and again and hope others have the luck of Mateo being your server!!

    Very busy night but service was good, food not as good as a previous visit. Japanese good but the Korean just a bit too sweet.

    Food and service always excellent! I was disappointed in with my margarita, very boring no flavor or hint of Mezcal. I requested a Dirty Martini good olives but lacking in flavor of olive juice was not a Dirty Martini! I requested more olive juice however the young lady that was one of our servers never returned with the extra. The servers are very busy so I understand. Never disappointed we will be back!! 🎈

    Great as usual, but we had to wait 30 minutes to be seated even though we arrived on time. This is very frustrating but not a lot we can do.
