Taku - Seattle

Order karaage chicken nugs. Favorite flavor was the umami chili dunk. Stopped on a high recommendation, and it didn't disappoint. Very crispy. Bummer that need to be 21 to dine in, so had to get it to

A busy night and a bucket of absolutely delicious fried chicken with teriyaki sauce! Fried brussel sprouts were great!Dietary restrictions: Lots of sesame, so be prepared!

TLDR: a late night bar with above average greasy food, loud music, and good serviceCharred edamame: 10/10 if you get anything, definitely try these! If you like edamame and light smokey flavor, then this is the perfect snack to try. Edamame is charred, smokey, and piping hot! Comes with a tzatziki like sauce.Furikake fries: 8/10 very seaweedy, salty, thin and crispier friesChicken karaage nugs (bonito soy): 4/10 these were just meh… I’d say for the size and price, the chicken was drier than expected. If you order chicken here, I’d recommend trying one with a sauce.Service: everyone here was really kind, prompt, and tables were cleaned and maintained well!

Got the spicy chicken sandwich. The chicken didn't even fit half the area of the bun. Can definitely get better sandwiches elsewhere. The fries were good but not amazing, moreso average.

A must go for late night Karaage and Japanese Highballs. I had the Spicy Chicken Sando and Furikake Fries. Unfortunately if you’re visiting from out of country their POS and ordering system doesn’t work for mobile. (Blame Toast not them) The staff were happy to take the order from us in person though!
