Nefis bir yemek yedik. Denediklerimizin hepsi çok lezzetliydi. Meyve aromalı sake harikaydı. Kesinlikle tavsiye ediyorum

BEST RESTAURANT IN LONDON - TRULY. Takagiya is hands down my favourite restaurant. First of all, they serve some of the best food I've ever eaten. To give an idea: their Nasu Dengaku is my favourite dish ever, the sashimi is out of this world, and all the desserts are just insanely good - but really every single dish I've tried on the menu is so fresh and tasty. I can tell each ingredient comes from a top quality source, and the sauces and preparation are like nothing I've experienced before - in my opinion, what Mr Tagaki creates is Michelin Star quality and artistry. I have never been to a restaurant before this where every bite makes me smile. And even outside of the food, the whole experience at Takagiya is magic. You have the lovely garden in the front, and the decor is beautiful. I've been to Japan a couple of times, and this is the first restaurant I have been to here that really makes me feel like I'm back in Kyoto or Hakone again. Everything has an authentic charm and signs of an artist's touch; the interior design, furniture, unique ceramic plates and bowls, the softly playing music - even the smallest details are clearly chosen with love and care. Mr Tagaki is a truly a master chef, and Mrs Tagaki is the most gracious, kind person who will make you feel so welcome. I am happy the moment I walk into Takagiya, and it my go-to choice for special moments (e.g. birthdays, reunions or an anniversary) or even just times to treat myself and a friend to a guaranteed beautiful dinner. Finally, there are too many chains in London - I am so grateful to the Tagakis for offering something totally unique. : )
