Definitely come for the sushi, but their kitchen dishes aren't the best. Since it's a sushi place, I don't mind this. Just want to point it out for non-sushi eaters in case they were looking for good cooked foods. Teriyaki chicken was definitely very dry, and their sauce runs on the very sweet side.
Their raw fish, however, is so good. You can taste the freshness and the two times we've been here and gotten their sushi/sashimi, none of it tasted fishy at all or anything but fresh. I really enjoy the raw scallops, salmon, yellowtail, and sweet shrimp. My sister is a tuna fan, and you can seldom go wrong there. Slices are thick and for the cost, perfect.
Hopefully this next part doesn't trigger anyone, but we really haven't liked any of their rolls (have tried about 8 kinds total, maybe 10?). It's sort of a trap for white people, just make everything spicy and with sauce to mask any unwanted flavors. While I do not fault restaurants for using this trick to make use of their older fish or leftover small pieces, I definitely don't think it is worth the money. Also because you do just fill up on a lot of rice. And sauce.
All in all, if you love fresh fish and live in the area + don't want to deal with the hassle of parking around Sushi Den and for a quieter atmosphere, please give this place a try! The servers and everyone here...
Read moreI live nearby this restaurant and I was so excited to find that the food is incredible! Much better than any other sushi restaurant in the area. Tonight, I ordered to go on my way home and when I got there it was super busy so I had to wait for my food. While I was waiting at the bar, the staff presented me with a special plate of fried salmon and cucumbers to make up for the wait, and it was so delicious! I asked for a cup of green tea to go, and since they didn’t have to-go cups for hot beverages, they gave me a cup while I waited (and enjoyed the beautiful fried salmon they gave me!), and also gave me a few loose tea leaves to make when I got home.
I’ve ordered takeout from Taku several times and it is always scrumptious and perfectly prepared - tonight’s meal was no exception. The way that the staff made me feel special, even when I had to wait for the meal I ordered was a great experience.
I’m so happy to have found my favorite new sushi spot! Thanks,...

Michael was incredibly attentive without being overbearing. He took the time to answer our questions, made thoughtful recommendations, and ensured our table had everything we needed throughout the meal. His knowledge of the menu was impressive, and his upbeat energy made the whole experience feel even more special.
