| - Takara is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Madison and has been for years. Yes, I've tried Sushi Box. No, I don't care that the sushi is more 'authentic,' and therefore, 'better.' I love my Americanized maki! Put some more avocado and cream cheese on that shit! ;)
Seriously, though, I am a big fan of their sushi rolls. I particularly like the Shogun Roll and Spicy Tuna. I love that their menu says "Special Roll for Special Customer." :D They have an excellent lunch special, if I'm remembering correctly. Their entrees are good, too.
I really enjoy the atmosphere (usually quiet, even if there are lots of people), and the service (friendly, attentive and polite).
One day, out of nowhere (and much to my chagrin), a roach crawled up on my table! Nothing could've blown my mind more, because this place just looks so clean! I alerted a waitress, who FREAKED out. She and several other waitresses had a small shit fit and managed to capture the roach and get rid of it. They apologized profusely and were so embarrassed. I am *positive* that the roach mosied on over from the ultra-scuzzy Pizza Di Roma next door. Still, it's worth mentioning, just in case they really do have roaches. :) I'd still go back, though!
