    I had a great time eating here for lunch. The sushi was great and the service was fast. Definitely would recommend checking this place out.

    Solid spot for Japanese food in Kamloops. My friend and I were on a roadtrip recently and Taka was our first stop. We didn't have a lot of time for dinner, as we wanted to make it to our hotel at a reasonable time. I called Taka to ask whether it was possible to order our dishes ahead of time for dine-in, and they kindly agreed to let us do so. By the time we arrived at the restaurant 15 minutes later, our food was ready and served to us as soon as we got seated. It wasn't crowded on a Friday evening. There were 2-3 other tables occupied (less the half the restaurant) when we arrived. I had two sushi rolls: an unagi roll ($6.95) as well as the Aurora roll ($11.95), which was similar to a Rainbow roll. My friend ordered the veggie yakisoba ($12.95) and two pieces of tamago nigiri ($2.50/piece). We both really enjoyed our food, and thought the price was very affordable. Paid around $45 after tax and tip.

    The food is so good here! Highly recommended! Have been many times and will continue to come.

    Doesn't deserve a star at all.. udon was bland the spicy seafood yam soup was covered with spicy sauce and the gomae salad had a funny smell. Ok if I have to give one star that's the avocado roll and tempura

    Couple of cones and a roll

    This has been one of the consistently better sushi places in town. Not much for location but none really are in Kamloops. They remodeled recently so the inside looks a bit better and feels larger.

    A little heart onion in our miso for Valentine's Day.

    Great place for lunch - friendly, casual, good sushi. Pick up a container of their homemade kimchi to take home - yum!

    My best friend was here from the coast and we've eaten sushi at numerous restaurants there. Wanted…read moreAYCE so decided to try this one. Mistake! The interior was clean and well lit. We were seated quickly and given our menu papers to order. VERY surprised to find that items that are standard at other AYCE sushi restaurants were a 'charge added' at this one. In addition, many items like chicken karage, were not even on the menue. Given the lack of staff (no blame here-we let it go) it took quite awhile for the server to pick up our order sheets. The Sunomono Salad was the first hint that something might be amiss. It came in a glass cup and the vinegar was yellow. Apple cider vinegar instead of rice vinegar, I think. My friend, who LOVES Sunomono salad couldn't eat hers. Then our items came in dribs and drabs. A California Roll and a couple of Inari (even though the menu said 3 pieces per order, and we ordered X2 (which should have been 6 pieces) we received 2 pieces. Then came the Tempura (sans the 2 prawns that comes with it EVERYWHERE else-prawns were an extra charge) and then the Yakisoba. Finally, the teriyakis come. 2 beef and 2 chicken. Teriyaki? A pile of fried cabbage and onion and 5 measly tiny pieces of chicken and another pile of fried cabbage and onion and 2 pieces of beef. NO TERIYAKI SAUCE!! Even though we both love cabbage, neither one of us could eat all of it. Then there is this-if you do not eat all of each dish, you are charged for that dish separately. So, my friend was charged an extra $5 for her unfinished Yakisoba (more cabbage mixed into lukewarm noodles). We complained about the huge amount of cabbage for each of the hot dishes and I felt that they should have not charged extra for the yakisoba. All in all a very disappointing AYCE lunch. The rolls were fine-nothing special. The Inari was fine. Everything else was sub-standard or non existent and having to pay extra for items that are standard at other sushi restaurants is a money grab. I will never eat here again and I will encourage my friends not to as well.

    At first we were going to have dinner at the restaurant nearby but they're closed so we come to…read morethis place and it's beyond our expectations. Food taste amazing and fresh, friendly service and reasonable price. Highly recommend!!
