Comment: If you are looking for a healthy, delicious, fresh and authentic Japanese restaurant in Long Island… Plan an evening out to Takumi Japanese Restaurant! I had the Japanese Style Sushi meal which came with 9 beautiful and intoxicating pieces of high quality sushi, chefs choice! I even started with the mouth watering grilled Himachi Kama which was totally to die for. The good news is… Once you eat here you will feel full and satiated all night long! You won’t want a second meal later. Very wonderful and homey experience! The prices are worth every bite and reasonable, I’m totally coming back!

Comment: Stopped in hoping to get some ramen, but they don’t offer it on Mondays. Went with the udon noodle soup, a few apps, and a sushi roll. It was great and will be back to try the ramen. The service was amazing and very welcoming. Great find while on that side of Long Island

Comment: Just went last night for ramen, and WOW! Probably some of the best ramen I’ve had. The duo working was incredibly friendly and gave such a nice vibe to the place. The restaurant itself was very clean, and well decorated. After trying a bunch of ramen restaurants on the island I could say I’ll definitely be going back.

Comment: My wife and I were looking for an authentic Japanese restaurant this evening and we stumbled across this amazing restaurant. Our experience and food was top notch and exceeded our expectation. The service was fantastic. The waitress so very sensitive to us and provided a second to none service. The food was the very best Japanese food weve ever had. The chef personally came to our table and served us. It was such a special touch to our experience. We were deeply moved by their hospitality. This will be a restaurant that we will continue to return to. The service, food, price was just right. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a truly authentic Japanese experience.

Comment: This restaurant was nothing less than amazing. I don’t usually write many reviews but the service of the people running it was incredible. This restaurant gives a very cozy vibe but not cramped. We ordered a couple rolls, some regular suhi, and miso soup. DELICIOUS!! I’ve never eaten my sushi rolls so fast. The food came very quick and it was very flavorful. I will definitely return here! Also seems like a smaller maybe family owned business and it’s really important to support those. Great restaurant overall 5/5 stars.

Comment: Found this place on Google (same day) and went for the first time tonight! Great service, food, and atmosphere - You can tell that the owners put a lot of effort and love into their craft and making their customers feel welcomed. It means a lot as an Asian person, to find a restaurant that holds true to its cultural authenticity - in its food, approaches, ambiance, etc.You want the low-key “hole in the wall”restaurant that stays true to themselves, make customers feel welcomed/attentive towards their needs, and to have a nice experience all round!This will be my new spot and I am excited to try the ramen as well!

At this time vaccinations are a must which we were more than fine with as we have immunocompromised family members.

Comment: One of the worlds best Japanese restaurants. Period.Their sushi is of outstanding excellence.Original, down to earth, non pretentious raw goodness. Honesty created from fish,rice, seaweed and wasabi, it is not a fashion statement, but one of values.So is the hot meals one can get there. Japanese soul food.The equivalent of coming home after a long journey to your moms home cooked food.A gem on Long Island.

Had the shrimp tempura roll and the #2 Yokozuna roll (I believe thats the name) Also, had some hot sake and edamame. Beyond amazing. One woman dining in was saying how she drove from Bellport because she loves the sushi so much! Highly recommend

Comment: Absolutely loved this place! A HUGE thumbs up! The owners were running the place, she was super super super nice! Took my order with patience and care. Small, very quaint and quiet. I too my sushi to go and it was excellent, even the second day. There was ONE sushi cook, which is the way it should be, in my humble opinion. He took EXTREME care in preparing my meal. You can feel the love, when you are the sushi. They gave me extra wasabi without an attitude. Both the waitress (owner) and chef, they were SO SO sweet and grateful for my business. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT.

Comment: Any time that I want a reminder of how real sushi is supposed to be served and how it’s supposed to taste, I find myself at Takumi. The owner Chef Yuki is a fine artist and serves the most authentic sushi and sashimi on Long Island. The fish is always fresh and delicious, but as any good sushi chef will tell you the most important component is the rice and at Takumi the rice is always perfect.Takumi is a small family run restaurant in Commack. The service is always personal and they strive to make sure you leave happy. The clientele is mostly “regulars” that Chef Yuki has been feeding in Commack for 20 years (back to the days where he trained under Chef Shiro Damon at Kurofune - in the days when that restaurant was outstanding. Not that good anymore). Takumi is not inexpensive. It will cost you a little more than other sushi spots, but it’s well worth the cost. Also, this is not a place where you will find dozens of “specialty rolls”. Yuki is a traditionalist so maguro, yellowtail, salmon, ika, and other nigiri choices are the best way to go.I have been a customer since the restaurant opened (I followed Chef Yuki from Kurofune) and have never had a bad meal. If you love authentic japanese food, run to Takumi!

Comment: This is my favorite Sushi Restaurant of all time. Chef Yuki is an artist with many of his own personal dish creations that delight the taste. His Sushi Pizza is our favorite appetizer. Many times we never look at the menu and just ask him to surprise us and we are always delighted beyond belief with what he comes up with. His drink specials are just the same. Do not miss this special restaurant.

Comment: Best Sushi on Long Island. We used to go to the other places in the area like Nisen, Izumi, Aki, etc....but none of those places can match the great flavor and authenticity of great sushi and Japanese cuisine. The owners are great people, Chef Yukis sushi always has fresh clean favors, and their specials are amazing works of art. My advise is to let the chef choose for you, try the omakase and Takumi for two! You wont be disappointed.

Comment: In an area flooded by sushi restaurants its difficult to stand out but Takumi manages to do just that. The food is always spectacular and much closer to authentic Japanese food than some of the restaurants being run by Korean or Chinese owners. The husband and wife team of Yuki and Kyumi make a great pair. Yuki has over twenty five years of experience behind the bar while Kyumi tends the floor. They are warm, and friendly with everyone who comes in maintaining first name basis relationship with most customers. They are now offering a sake flight for thirty bucks which is a great deal. Highly recommend that and Yukis pizza. Only drawback for this place is its absolutely awful location. Once found though youll have a hard time going to one of the other ten thousand sushi places.
