Very good food recommend this place a 100% even if u don’t like Japanese food it’s really

1 woman cooking and serving! it’s 100% worth the wait the food has so much flavor.

We were looking for sushi and Japanese food and stumbled across Takara because it was within walking distance from where we were staying. Unfortunately we never ate the food and walked out after being seated....terrible service and atmosphere. In the short time we sat there......the lady running the joint turned away a family that wanted to sit at the sushi bar, her words no kids , then when she cam to take our order she told us that any hot food would take a long time since she would be the one cooking it, her delivery was not accommodating. We asked for a minute to think about menu options. While we considered other choices a family of 3 walk in and she proceeds to tell them she only has tables for 2, mind you this place has ~5 tables for 2 a sushi bar for 6-7, only 3 tables were occupied so she had room. The father persisted and pulled up a chair and they were seated. She then tells them she wo t be able to get to them for a lo g time because of the other tables....b.s! It was this behavior that really turned us off, this lady was basically telling all customers she didn 't want to work for the evening, order sushi only, didn 't want families, and was almost pushing customers she didn 't like out the door. Never going back.

Only 8 chairs total, they rejected us claiming they cannot serve 6 ppl even we say we can sit separately.
