Their sign is easy to see as you drive by, but my friend did give me a heads up that their door was not obvious. You need to walk through a fence and then open a non deacript door. The artwork outside is awesome! When we walked in we received a friendly greeting and were quickly shown to our seats. We had made a reservation ahead of time and there was no delay to seat us upon our arrival. Our server was friendly and took our drink orders right away. I appreciated that they had multiple non alcoholic drinks and at a fair price. I started with the Thai Iced tea which was delicious, but I would have loved a glass 2x the size! We ordered multiple dishes to share amongst us. I did ask the server how many dishes they recommended that we order as I wasn't sure of the size. The items are brought out as they are made, so we had food being dropped off to is at random intervals. The only slight issue we experienced was when someone else tried to bring a plate of squid to our table. We let them know that we had not ordered it. They then went and talked to our server, who brought the squid back to our table. We also let them know that we had not ordered that dish. Our server did bring back our order slip and looked it over, and I believe at that point they realized that we really had not ordered that dish and just weren't rejecting it. I am not sure if it had been written wrong, communicated to the kitchen wrong, or what but we did have to state multiple times that we had not ordered it. The rest of our dishes arrived correctly. The crispy chive cakes were great, and the sticky spare ribs were AMAZING. The caramel glaze on the outside of the ribs was so good, and they were tender as well. The outside was super crispy. I would absolutely ordered these again. I would say that both of those dishes were only for 2 people. The sticky rice and jasmine rice were as to be expected, and I personally felt that the papaya salad was not as good as others I have had. The chilli noodles had an amazing broth and I would also recommend. Overall, I did enjoy our dinner but I am not sure that I would go out of my way to return. I am rounding up to 4 stars based on the sticly ribs alone, otherwise a 3.5 would be more fair. I have been hearing about Takoi for years, so maybe my epxections were too high but I was expecting a bit more.

Service is very personable and attentive. Going above and beyond. This place is going to be busy once the word is out that they are open for lunch! So few places are open for lunch downtown anymore. Don't skip Tabe as an option. You'll be surprised. The dining room is beautiful but a bit dark during lunch. Nice a cool though. There are TVs just nothing tuned in yet. Idk if the upstairs is open but not necessary to go up there really, when the server will bring it down for you. Large comfortable booths or sit at the bar is a large cushioned chair. More to come. I have to try more of the lunch menu.

When i visited they were also making cajun food as a chef special. I had the Yakisoba and the portion was large and the food tasted great! The place was decorated nicely and had a comfortable atmosphere. my only complaint is that the TV was playing a movie loudly and I usually prefer a quieter atmosphere. however i don't think that this nitpick is worth docking a star, just a note! I hope this business continues to expand and profit in the area, we are in desperate need of late night eats!

Most recently i placed an order for a 12:00pm pick up and when i came at 12:05pm not only was it not ready but they never even started it! The employee said it will be a few minutes. Several other customers were waiting and no one was bringing out their orders as well. Food from the kitchen was only brought out to customers who were dinning in. I never received my order until 12:45pm. I would come here more often but due to the long waits I probably won't be coming back unless I choose to dine in and i'm not pressed for time. The food however is delicious with lots of gluten free options. You can choose from 3 sizes of bowls: Junior, regular, and large. The base can be white or brown rice and for an up-charge noodles or all veggies. Protein options are chicken, steak, salmon or tofu. The Spicy tofu which indeed was VERY spicy!! The tofu was perfected fried and coated with just the right amount of sauce. I loved how fluffy and sticky the rice was but i wish there were more veggies. I only received one slice of zucchini, no carrots...only broccoli and cabbage. Food gets 4,5 stars but service gets 2/2.5 because of the extremely long waits. Defeats the purpose of doing an online order for a fast and easy pickup.

This is a good choice for a slower-paced meal, but I would not recommend it for larger parties unless you are eating family-style. We arrived on a Friday night when it was full (about 6:30; they close at 8:00) and after waiting about 10 minutes for a table, there was considerable wait for our food as well. The server, who was so sweet, explained the kitchen operates with only a 4-burner stove. We watched a 6-top near us get served their entrees over a period of about 10 minutes, and then the last man waited for his about an additional 5. They were together, but not eating together most of the time, and it seemed awkward for them. Vibe and decor had great energy. We would definitely return!

When you enter the building and walk down the stairs, the decor immediately lets you know you're not just about to enjoy a meal but a whole experience. I honestly cannot focus on specific items from the menu because everything ordered at the table was wildly delicious! So much so, we tasted each other's food all evening which led to others ordering more food even to take home. The drinks were different, delicious, and dangerous too! I was a little concerned at first learning there was only one server working. Let me tell you, I have never seen one person handle serving multiple tables so effortlessly and efficiently ever before.

Very friendly and fast customer service. And the broth was surprisingly rich compared to other ramen shops I've been to in USA. I also enjoyed texture of the noodles. It's a bit different kind of ramen compared to ones in Japan but it has its own flavor that I enjoyed . Spring rolls are huge with lots of glass noodles , meat and vegetables and fried to perfection. I think the pork topping is something like pork cooked in clock pot , sliced and pan fried to make it crispy outside. It's unique and I didn't dislike it. If I'm around the area again I'd definitely go back.
