What Morgan Olson doesn't like about Takara 88:
I live on the west and was looking for somewhere close for sushi. Takara 88 has been on my list for awhile now so I was excited. I quickly became disappointed.

This Japanese restaurant has received mixed reviews from customers. Some diners were impressed by the quality of the food, particularly the sushi and hibachi meals. However, others were disappointed with aspects like overcooked meat and slow service. While the food was generally praised, the attention to detail in the dine-in experience was criticized. Overall, the restaurant seems to have potential, especially in terms of food quality, but improvements in service and overall dining experience may be needed.
