MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
One Star: High quality cooking
Back when there weren’t many sushi restaurants in Nishi-Azabu, the chef was determined to blaze a trail here. And ‘blaze a trail’ is basically what Taku means. The same trailblazing was what led him to be among the first sushi chefs to hire a sommelier, and to spread sushi culture in Hawaii. The variety of his omakase set meals, which start at 30 items, is eye-popping. Nigiri items alternate with drinking snacks. Sushi rice may be seasoned with white or red vinegar, depending on the fish topping—another trailblazing move.
