A wonderful experience to end our trip with!
My husband and I went to Takumi-Tei on our last night at Disney. It was expensive, but the experience was wonderful and made it all worth it.
The restaurant is nice, calm, and quiet compared to the noise that is Disney. It makes you completely forget that you are at Disney! We went on the first day that they were rolling out their new Spring menu. Our server Azura-san was friendly, delightful, and made us cherish our experience with a handwritten note given to us after dinner.
My husband and I both got the full omakase experience with the Sake tasting. Our favorite courses were the "Hassun" (the several seasonal ingredients), the "Shii-Zakana" where we both chose the Crisp Tempura of Japanese Black Wagyu, and the "Matcha and Kanami" where we enjoyed watching our server make fresh matcha and our sweet treats.
Keep in mind that it is a tasting course and you have to be open to unique and different food experiences. My husband and I didn't like every dish, but we knew going in that there were going to be some questionable dishes to our palates but that didn't stop us. I state this because there was another group of guests who were as open as wanted to end their experience early.
Overall a wonderful experience! It makes us fond of our past Japanese travels. I would recommend booking a dinner here as a special occasion or as a nice treat during your stay!

Best service I’ve had….incredible atmosphere. I think the dishes try incredibly hard, but the quality of the fish just wasn’t there for me. If you go, I recommend the four course omakase. There is just so much food and you fill up quickly. This didn’t feel like a true curated omakase “chef's choice" experience, but more of a set-menu assembly. Again, the service was incredible and that made it feel special.

My husband are big sushi eaters and were willing to spend $250 each for the 7 course meal they offered. They tried selling us an additional wagu couse for an additional $100 but we said we were only interested in what came with the $250 meal. The atmosphere was lovely and our young male waiter seemed lovely until the end. He asked if we wanted water and we said yes. My husband ordered a $60 bottle of sake and I ordered a $17 cocktail. We were asked at the beginning to pick a choice of beef listed on the $250 /person menu which was part of the 7 courses which my husband told the waiter we were surprised as we thought it would be all sushi/sashimi. We asked the waiter what he recommended and he said choice #3 so we said okay. As they brought things out presentation was nice, but nothing tasted that great and it was very little sushi. In fact one of the items was Tofu. I did not pay for Tofu. There were 3 soups which is also too much. We wanted sushi. Finally came the dessert and the waiter showed us the menu which showed four desserts and said "choose one". I asked what he recommended and he said "don't worry, I'm bringing all of them for each of you." I said "but it says choose one" and he again said "don't worry". He brought the desserts and like the food, they were nothing great. Nice looking but not great tasting. Then came the bill which was over $800 BEFORE THE TIP. They charged as $12 for the water which they NEVER told us there was a charge. They also charged us $70 extra ($35 EACH) for the beef choice which the waiter recommended but NEVER told us was extra. They also charged us $70 extra ($35 EACH) for four small pieces of dessert which the waiter said not to worry about picking as he would bring all four to us. We were FURIOUS and told the waiter he was totally deceitful and we were NOT paying the extra $140 for the beef and dessert. He didn't argue with us whatsoever as he knew he was deceitful as that's what they probably do to everyone and very few people will do what we did by refusing to pay for the "extras". He removed the $140 from the bill but the tip was automatically added. I read one of the reviews from the man who eats in Michelin restaurants and said the food here was the best he tasted. That reviewer had to be paid to say that as it's the farthest from the truth. This restaurant should be closed down for false advertisement and deceitfulness. My husband and I ate in a small sushi restaurant in New York City, where we come from, where the chef kept sending us beautiful and delicious creations one after the other. This is what we expected but what we got was so far from that. DO NOT GO THERE!!!
