About this place
Some diners say they were surprised to be served nigiri with salt rather than soy sauce. Visitors report that the preparation can vary according to the fish: it may be seasoned with salt or cured with kombu, for example. If you would like to try sushi that does not rely solely on soy sauce, the omakase nigiri is one option. If you have a preference about the amount of salt, mention it when ordering.
For a set of nigiri with a particular selection, consider the premium nigiri or the version with premium toro. The house chirashi is another option: it is described as being served in a bowl and seasoned with wasabi soy sauce. Those who would rather leave the choices to the restaurant can opt for an omakase selection.
The menu also includes rolls and pressed sushi. Takuumi-maki, named after the restaurant, is listed as an original seafood roll. Pressed conger eel sushi and battera—pressed sushi topped with mackerel—offer a different way to enjoy sushi beyond nigiri.
One diner describes enjoying both sushi and small dishes, along with a variety of sake. Another specifically mentions the sake brand Ōroku. In the evening, the menu may suit a meal of several dishes paired with sake.
The restaurant is in Ma matsubara, Higashi Ward, Fukuoka, and offers lunch and dinner menus. Some diners have enjoyed the lunchtime omakase, while another visitor reports that the restaurant may be preparing food during the day. It is worth calling ahead to check before you go. Reservations are available, and booking is recommended for dinner.
