" While the atmosphere was filled with youthful energy, the food didn't quite hit the mark for me. The chicken was decent but could have used more flavor. The staff were friendly, and I felt welcomed, but I left feeling underwhelmed by the main dish I tried. " (*Curated Review*)

" I highly recommend Taku for its unique dining experience! The drink selection was enjoyable, and the food felt authentic, especially the fried chicken which has a nice crunch. I can't wait to come back and try more menu items! " (*Curated Review*)

" Taku is quite a remarkable place, especially if you're into the aesthetic of being at an izakaya. The contactless ordering made the process smooth and quick, which I appreciated. Instead of fried chicken, I tried their fried tofu, which I liked but didn't blow me away. I’ll trust the chicken is better based on what I’ve heard! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Taku was a delightful experience! I had the spicy chicken sandwich, which had a perfect kick. The friendly staff ensured my visit was enjoyable. Although there was a bit of a wait for my food, it was worth it! I will definitely be back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to eating at Taku, influenced by Chef Shota's reputation. The chicken itself didn't taste fresh and was a bit dry. However, the fries were enjoyable, and the environment was fun. I feel it was more about style than substance. Not sure if I'd rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Taku has quickly become my go-to spot for late-night food! The fried chicken was perfectly crispy and packed full of flavor. I especially loved the spicy teriyaki sauce that they offer. The atmosphere is vibrant and feels like a little corner of Tokyo. I can’t recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, Taku is awesome! From the crunchy karaage to the delightful fried rice, every dish I’ve had has been exceptional. The vibe is what keeps this place exciting. Perfect for any casual outing or late-night munchies! " (*Curated Review*)
