The casual izakaya Takumen feels like a cozy Japanese cottage, with pitched wooden slats over the tables and cheeky prints on the walls.

service was good and the space is cute. i tried the grilled chicken meatballs and the nori fries for appetizer which were both yummy. i didn’t expect the fries to be more like home fries, but they were crispy and flavorful.
the ramen was a complete letdown. the broth was mediocre and the noodles had a weird, almost plastic texture.

tldr: looks nice, quick & kind service, cute plate setting, but food doesn’t taste as good as it looks.
Very lovely atmosphere and service, and I appreciate that they have black sesame lattes and good quality matcha too.
However we came for the ramen and were utterly disappointed. We got the dan dan chicken with the takumen broth. It was only salty and watery, with no other dimensions of flavor. It just tasted like salt, soy sauce and sesame oil with some chili on top. I can make better ramen at home. Also for the price (and for an authentic ramen) I expected it to come with a marinated egg as well, but I guess that costs extra.

Delicious, flavorful, and fresh – the food here is thoughtfully made and you can taste it with every bite. I am a huge fan of the Super Kinoko rice bowl (mushrooms are to die for!) and love ordering it with a fresh side of tuna poke. Service is also impeccable. Lert’s menu recommendations are always top notch! If he suggests a special, I’m always ordering it also, can’t forget to end your meal with some home-made ice cream!

Takumen is amazing! Unique food choices, great service and clean well lit atmosphere. Lively crowd at night! Super kinoko bowl, hard boiled eggs, fried avocado, dashi edamame, nori is amazing!!!

I used to love this restaurant when I came here a few years ago, since the food was really good back then. But my most recent visit was an absolute disappointment. The food was shockingly bad. Two different chicken dishes had almost the exact same seasoning, and we had to wait a long time. The ramen was the worst I’ve ever had – I stopped after just one bite.

Very cute and clean vibe at the restaurant. We went for lunch and got some appetizers. Lots of vegetarian friendly appetizers however we thought the two mains (veg ramen and rice bowl) were lacking in protein options (no tofu and egg cost additional). The veg ramen broth was very salty as well. We felt a bit pressured by the waiter who seemed to keep trying to urge us to order more food for the table and dessert even after we let them know we would not like any dessert. For the price we will most likely not be coming back.

Me and my good friend came here a few days ago for a small meet. We had 2 bowls of ramen (forgot which ones) and we had 2 cups of matcha and an iced latte. We loved the service here. We assume it was the manager serving us, very attentive. We had a girl come give us our ramen, Very professional but also cute restaurant. It seemed like you walked into someone’s home to eat and it felt nice. We will come again. Such a nice and calm and clean place. Staff was nice and professional and attentive and happy.

Food missed expectations, the chicken meatball skewers were probably the best thing along with the Japanese ice dessert (arimatsu?).
The lamb legs looked and tasted like airplane food and the ramen was ok.
