Taiko Restaurant

Tasty authentic japanese cuisine. Very good food well presented. Staff are friendly. Lovely atmosphere. I highly recommend

food was great and so beautifully presented! We had a large group but service was very fast and efficient and the staff are all very lovely. Would definitely come here again!

I had dinner at Taiko Japanese Restaurant & Bar in Kingsland right next to the train station. Staff was very hospitable, warm and engaging and the service was excellent.

The menu was extensive so it was difficult deciding between a set menu and individual dishes. To help peruse the menu I ordered plum wine with soda.

After much deliberation, I settled the salmon sashimi and seafood salad which were impeccably presented on ice with embellishments of shell and twigs. The freshness of the fish was remarkable and the condiments of wasabi mayo and seaweed salad was exceptional. The seafood salad was my stand out dish of the night.

For hot dishes, I ordered pork gyoza and Taiko spicy prawns with special and yum yum sauces. These dishes were delicious too and very satisfying.

Overall my dining experience was wonderful and I discovered a new favourite so will return again. Highly recommended with distinction!
