    We have visited Takato many times it seems to get worse and worse. I will be giving Takato a much needed break! They force you to sit outside in the wind tunnel because they don’t have a means to mitigate the weather and they want to pack as many people into the restaurant as possible, so they put you outside in the wind tunnel and hope you don’t complain…. Food was just OK this time. Nothing spectacular service was extremely poor. The noise level was loud. We won’t be back for a while

    We were eating light without an appetizer or cocktails and it appeared that our server lost interest in providing attentive service as he realized we would not have a large check that his tip would be based upon. However, otherwise, the food and ambience was excellent.
