Where They Are Now
Edo-mae practice defines the house style at Sushi Takeda. Fish is treated before service as individual material: aged, cured, and marinated piece by piece, with preparation carrying as much weight as the final forming of nigiri. Within that sequence, belly and seasoning work have drawn outside notice. Otoro from the choice section of the belly was described by Lisa Eats LA as the best ever, while sawara with smoked salt was singled out by Lisa Eats LA as a standout for the force of its flavor.
Signature
