Takara Sushi Station

I have enjoyed Takara since it opened on Whitney Way well over a decade ago. I can honestly say the quality and service are excellent, and it remains our go-to choice for a special celebration sushi dinner out. I also just hosted a 30-person work lunch, and Takara's manager, Jeannie took excellent care of us. The food was delivered on time and beautifully presented. Our group was so happy and felt like the Takara lunch was amazing and we would love to do this again when the budget allows!

Beautiful interior and pleasant lighting, music and overall ambiance. Very different from all other places to dine in Madison. However, all rolls for two people were delicious and fresh. The Maki Combo is best value for your money. Miso soup is tasty. Shrimp dumplings are wonderful as well. An update from visit on 05/27/23. By looking at all negative review fee have substance. Most people who leave those never had or will ha be their own business. So easily to spit on someone else work and livelihood. If restaurant is empty I’d be delighted. No long wait times or loudness. The food was served fresh and incredibly tasty. The interior is absolutely beautiful in comparison to most other sushi places in Madison. Highly recommend. These people work hard to service us delicious food they speci

I'm glad Tamara finally put Gluten free indicators on their menu. Good quality sushi and decent service. The seafood soup appetizer was shockingly amazing, try it!!!

Did you know there is conveyor belt sushi here in Wisconsin? This is a sushi restaurant with conveyor belt all-you-can-eat option. If you choose conveyor belt sushi, you are limited to mainly tuna, salmon, surimi and some yellowtail, raw and spicy and crunchy/deep-fried in nigiri and maki rolls. You will also see (per plate) a small eggroll, one crab rangoon, and two potstickers. There was cantalope, edamame, and jelly frosting cakes as well but don't expect to find eel or octopus or anything too high-end on the conveyor belt. Thankfully there is a large menu so you can choose something you're after. Spacious booths, brand new conveyor system, two sushi chefs working hard, clean bathrooms, and cool fish tanks and decor. We will be back.

My wife and I stopped in around 1120 on a Thursday. We got specialty roles, like the Fantastic. It was the best Sushi I have enjoyed in years. Self service ordering was a fun twist too.
