Reviews for Takumi Restaurant in Albuquerque, NM
This is a beautiful restaurant! The ambiance is lovely and the service is always amazing! I got the kissing roll because I love... salmon and it was incredible! I also tried the beef noodles, scallops and the ultimate crunch roll and everything was amazing!It is pricey but very much worth it! I hope to try more soon! Read more
1st experience: We got the Pirate Ship (Shabu Shabu) which is seafood hotpot. We also got the sushi combination. The hotpot... order comes with a miso broth and a beef broth to cook in. It was delicious, fun, and easy to do. It comes with tongs and twotypes of ladies (one with slots) if you want broth or not. The waitress was kind and informative, she walked us through whichfoods to cook first in order to have the best timing. edit 11/2022: I hace reduced our rating for Takumi despite being a longtime patron. We love coming here for date night and other nice nights out. Today we requested a table for shabu shabu and weretold they had none available at this time 7pm on a saturday table. OK, so we asked for a sushi only table (no need for tabletopgrill or hot pot). We were told it would be an hour wait. We waited in the car for a full 60 minutes before asking for anupdate. My bf noticed they had crossed our name and phone off the list and served about 10 people after us. We ultimately neverreceived a call and they scrambled to seat us. It was very frustrating to sit in the cold car, hungry, waiting for the callonly to realize they'd marked us off a long time ago. Especially since it was a party of 2 for a non specialty table whichshould be easier to accommodate. The manager and chef were kind and she arranged for a specialty chef performance for us with asmall discount off our bill. At that point it was awkward because all the large tables around has had been served and we wantedsushi in the first place, not hibachi. I really want to return and have a good experience but I'm afraid of the hostesses, andthis experience left a sour taste in our mouth. It's not cheap and we work hard for our money so we expect to be treateddecently and not forgotten/ignored. I will say the manager was very attentive through our meal to ensure we had a niceexperience after being seated which we appreciate. Just make sure you're babysitting the clock if you decide to eat her Read more
Had a fun, delicious tapan dinner experience here. Large serving of lobster and scallops for the entree and a yummy sushi roll... for an appetizer. Mango beer was great. Used synergy gift card here. Entertaining and fun chef Read more
I was excited to eat at this location but they need to get their kitchen managed properly. Waited over an hour for ONE sushi... roll. Never received said roll. Watched multiple other patrons get their dishes while I sat and waited, never even heard from myserver until I complained to other staff. The food we did receive was cold and incorrect from what I ordered. They didn't failto charge me for the fried rice I never received. Never offered to comp the meal or even the appetizers. Warned some folks atthe door and they left too. Watched them walk out a few minutes later. Had high hopes, but never again. Read more
Don't get the sushi. I've ordered take out a few times now and every time the rice is absolute s***. That's not sushi rice, it's... literally plain (kind of dried out) white rice with no vinegar mixed in at all. Do these look properly rolled to you?? Read more
I got the Yakiniku Course A (Japanese "Taste of BBQ") which included chicken garlic yuzu, miso sukiyaki steak, New York steak,... beef brisket, pork belly, and seasonal vegetables. I was unsure how long to cook the vegetables, so I just threw them on as soonas the grill was turned on and kept flipping them until they softened up, which seemed to work. The rice and noodle combo was ingood proportions with the meat, and the amount of food seemed reasonable for the price. The service was good and friendly, andthe restaurant was just starting to get busy when I arrived but I still got a table immediately. Read more
This was a wonderful experience. The sushi was fresh and delicious with various flavors and options. The fried rice is equally... delicious. Children's chicken nuggets are delicious as well. Limited on the drinks options. The patio area was nice and we werethe only ones in that area which was nice with this Covid. Definitely we will go back again. Excellent service by our waiter DJ.
