top notch ingredient, lots of imported and air transferred. could be top 3 omakase i had in south florida, if not at least top tier.
very few dishes during the middle had the taste of spices overwrites the original taste of the main ingredient, could see improvement on that to become total perfection. anyway, whom am i kidding right now the promotion is only $200 per person, it would not be fair to compare to those $500 well known joints.
get on and try it if you can, good experience, and i see this joint has unlimited potential, worth give a try.
This was an incredible experience. We attended with a group of 6. The service was fantastic and the food was delicious. The staff was attentive and the chefs were entertaining and engaging. They had an amazing selection of Sake which was presented in beautiful decanters. It was an intimate setting which really set the tone for the wonderful service. Will definitely visit again!
One of the best omakase restaurants in South Florida and definitely on the level of sushi restaurants in Japan.
Coming from someone who has experienced the freshness of fish from Tsukiji Market and the traditional omakase of NYC favorites like Sushi Nakazawa, it's very hard for me to find good sushi in South Florida. I was really excited to see Taki Omakase open in Delray but haven't had a chance to try it but when they notified me they were opening a Boca Raton location right by my house, I couldn't miss the opportunity. With an amazing opening promotion, my husband and I rushed over to experience the difference of Taki.
As soon as you enter, the ambiance and decor will calm and enlighten you. The beautiful waterfall and bonsai tree at the bar, the zen garden in the corner and the plush sofa chairs that line the walls for you to relax before your meal all add to your pre-dinner excitement. There's also a traditional tatami room where you can host private parties. The bar sits around 16-17 guests. There's two seating a night as of right now. We went on a Thursday night at 6 PM. We were seated according to time of arrival. There were 5 Chefs working with 3 of them focusing on different sections of the bar and other helping in the back kitchen. Chef David and Chef Ben were absolutely amazing. They mentioned the biggest difference between the Delray location and Boca is the kitchen and the ability to serve hot items as well as cold throughout the courses. That's my favorite way to enjoy omakase. The hot dishes breaks up the traditional cold nigiri sushi and allows the chef to create more unique dishes.
I'll mention some of my favorites. DM me for full list. The hot Chawanmushi shrimp with chili oil was so soothing and light. Great way to start. The
Hamachi yellowtail with fried chili garlic had a nice complimenting crunch with fish. The Shima aji Striped jack with ginger scallion was reminiscent of traditional Chinese steamed fish flavors with the scallion oil. Loved it. The Otoro with caviar seared with binchotan charcoal was so so good. Just melted in your mouth. The Wagyu with shaved truffle sent me to Heaven. I came back but the Chutoro with seared foie gras and shiso sent me back up. We ended after around 18 courses of delights but had a surprise homemade Japanese cheesecake at the very end. Perfect ending to an amazing night of unique sushi creations with different cultural inspirations. Will definitely be back.
Exactly what Delray needed. Some of the best Japanese (omakase) food we have had anywhere. The chef Bill blew our mind and the hospitality of Chloe the waitress, taking us on a sake experience. First class. I would honestly come here every week. Amazing experience.
We’ve been to many omakase restaurants, from Michelin stars in Tokyo and restaurants in NYC and DC - this place is very authentic! The selection of fish is of best quality, and the chef’s training in Japan shows with each amazingly umami servings! The staff is very friendly and hospitable. We will be coming back again and again! Best!
