ewe!

Food:

The food and service you get here is really good, unfortunately being along that stretch of Colfax, some really weird people make the atmosphere uncomfortable.

Food:

THIS BUSINESS STOLE MY CREDIT CARD INFORMATION! I visited this establishment one time just over a month ago and used my credit card to pay. I just noticed that "Taki's," or "Maki's" has since charged me for relatively small amounts several times since, even though I have never returned. (BTW: Why did I never return? Because their sushi and sashimi was terrible!) They have been stealing from me by using my credit card information to charge me for purchases I NEVER MADE. DO NOT PATRONIZE THIS FRAUDULENT BUSINESS!

Food:

So I was surprised to read some negative reviews of unfriendly service as I scrolled this page-- I haven't encountered this mythical grumpy grandma, but you guys should all come back, the people are so friendly now! I started going a few months ago when I moved to this part of Capitol Hill, and I can truly say it is one of the best cheap I've ever been to. I love discovering authentic "hole in the wall" places and Taki's is that-- in the best way possible. Cheap, pretty authentic, HUGE portions. I'm especially passionate about them because everyone there is so nice. I normally don't like the expectation to tip, especially when it's just a counter place, but Taki's doesn't even have a tip slot on the receipt when you pay by credit card. When I asked them about it (I've done so multiple times now), they refused to accept a tip-- repeatedly! They're so modest.

Food is great and comes in huge portions, fresh and flavorful. I particularly recommend the chicken katsu (sp?), breaded and fried to a golden crisp, as well as their shrimp tempura. I always end up not being able to finish what I ordered and it's usually good for two meals (great for a recent grad on a budget!) Yum!!!
