Taku Japanese Kitchen

A hidden gem around royal oak, this familyrun business provides a small and homey eatery that offers fresh and delicious sushi placed on beautiful japanese plates.

We came in for a quick lunch during a weekday, and were greeted by a lovely japanese couple who runs this restaurant. The store is small, but they were busy with many take-out orders. We had the classic "vancouverite" sushi roll selections and they were all made very well. The ingredients were fresh and the pieces did not fall apart easily. The taste is quite authentic and the price is definitely affordable. I'll definitely be coming back on days i want to have a simple sushi for a meal.

Taku Japanese Kitchen is a small 'hole in the wall' takeout that is has extended hours, unlike several Japanese restaurants in the Burnaby area. The Yelp reviews were favorable and one person stated the limited tables and chair there. Since that review, the tables have been removed and they are strictly takeout. The beef don bowls were excellent and the sushi combination was good. Service is quick, and the food is prepared after you place the order. The wait time is around 10-15 minutes. Parking is limited since the lot is shared with 5 other businesses, including the 7-11, vet clinic, bakery, and 2 other private businesses. Watch out carefully when backing out of the lot. People are constantly walking out and they aren't paying attention to drivers leaving the strip mall.

A small and unassuming but very cute and homely small kitchen with just one table for seating. Sushi is reasonably priced and really well prepared by the sushi chefs. Tried the inari aburi platter and it was pretty good, nothing spectacular but nevertheless you get what you order. Dynamite roll was pretty good.

A new sushi place that opened up in the Royal Oak area, I was craving for some classic rolls after work and decided on the salmon and avocado roll and the unagi roll. Both were fresh and well made and left me wanting more. I tried to go again the weekend after but ended up finding out they are closed on Sundays! Will definitely be back to try more.

This place opened up a few months ago and replaced 2 of the sushi businesses I used to go to. They have a more elevated menu than the ones before it and pretty good quality sushi. The platter I ordered was $31 and plenty of food for 2 ppl for a good price. It's run by a nice couple as it's a tiny little space so don't be surprised if you have to wait awhile for your food cause they're doing the best they can with a 2 person team. I would recommend take out because they don't have much tables inside due to the small space.

Had takeout today as a pre Thanksgiving lunch. Everything was fresh and amazing . Is definitely my favorite sushi place.

The restaurant is the best sushi that I have been in burnaby. I ordered taku's special maki, nigiri, salmon oshi and vegetable udon. every dish is perfect. From now on I'll have lunch for "to go". I am absolutely satisfied to hearty meal.

Have to give this place 5 stars for my first visit. After eating there I was excited to go back and try something else. The food is of very good quality even the rice tastes better then any rice I have had at any other sushi restaurant of this calibre prices are good and honest. Best bang for your buck. There's only one tablein the place so prepare for take out.
