" A friend recommended Taniku, and I'm glad I took her advice! The ambiance was lovely and warm, a perfect complement to the delicious dishes. I ordered the hotate miso ramen and was astounded by how flavorful the broth was. They also offer a variety of appetizers, which were great to share. The service exceeded my expectations, as the staff was engaging and attentive. I can't wait to try more items next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

Everything we ordered was well thought out and executed, especially the black cod which melted in my mouth.

" I love this place! The skewers are well-marinated, juicy, and grilled perfectly. I had the pork belly skewer and the tsukune, which were out of this world. The ambiance is cozy, making it an ideal spot for a night out with friends. Although it was packed the night I visited, service was still quite prompt, which was refreshing. I went during happy hour, and the prices were quite fair for the quality of food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Taniku. The petite yet cozy atmosphere was perfect for enjoying their perfectly grilled skewers. Everything we ordered was immaculate—from the kaarage to the ramen. I had the spicy version, and it was delightful! I also loved the hojicha panna cotta for dessert; it was so light and refreshing. Highly recommend giving this place a visit! " (*Curated Review*)
