First time checking out this sushi restaurant, and it was wonderful! Such a great spot for a date night. There are two floors of seating, plus bar seating, so there’s a nice variety of options depending on the vibe you’re looking for.
They have a great happy hour, and I highly recommend the sake sangria! All of the sushi rolls we tried were delicious, so you really can’t go wrong. The plate presentation was beautiful, and the overall aesthetics of the restaurant were really pretty.
The staff was very friendly, and we really enjoyed the atmosphere and environment they’ve created. Overall, a great experience and definitely a place I would recommend!

Our experience at Tahk was bizarre and disappointing, especially given the price point and the expectations that come with an omakase restaurant.
Things felt disorganized from the beginning. When we arrived, the restaurant was essentially empty, yet the hostess could not find a table where we could sit because certain tables were apparently reserved. It was unclear how guests were reserving specific locations within the dining room, and it made for an awkward first impression as she was running laps up and down the stairs for no reason.
Service remained scattered throughout the meal. We had around five different people serving us, none introduced themselves, our order was mixed up, and several questions about the menu could not really be answered. Service was also surprisingly slow. At one point, it took about 20 minutes simply to receive a spirit served neat.
The chef interaction was another low point for us. We found him to be quite annoying and rude. He had no decorum and poor social skills. He was extremely loud bragging about having multiple homes, bragging about his BMW, called the whiskey I selected “garbage,” and discussed his dying parents during the meal??? The combination was overwhelmingly inappropriate and distracting from what should have been a refined dining experience.
The seating itself felt cramped, and unfortunately the food did little to make up for the other issues. All of the fish did not taste fresh or high quality to us and had the character of fish sitting out too long or could have been handled better. The happy hour menu was also underwhelming, and the miso soup was extremely salty almost like it was store bought.
For what Tahk charges, I expected considerably better ingredients, more knowledgeable service, stronger hospitality, and a much more polished experience overall. Based on this visit, the value simply was not there for us.
I’ve been coming to steamboat for over two decades and I’m sad to say this place does not belong here. I wouldn’t be able to take my friends or family to Tahk without feeling guilty. There are much better options all over town. Unfortunately steamboat doesn’t really have any good high end Japanese food.
