Takahachi, East Village
17 people recommend, 2 warn against itvia r/FoodNYC19 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Takahachi is repeatedly recommended for casual sushi, with the explicitly named Avenue A restaurant shown here. One East Village recommendation highlights reasonable prices, while a customer who does not identify a branch recalls ordering for decades. Those citywide accounts should not all be read as reviews of this branch. Two dissenters either did not enjoy repeated meals or preferred another casual sushi restaurant.
