Taku (restaurant)
Taku is a Japanese restaurant located in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood at 706 East Pike Street. It is owned by renowned chef Shota Nakajima and was established in 2020.[1][2][3][4] "Taku", meaning table in Japanese, exudes vibes of a lively Osaka alleyway reminiscent of the bustling food stalls in the Shinsekai district with music, lights, dark wood and Japanese-inspired art.[5]
Menu[]
Taku’s menu offers marinated, battered and twice-fried karaage nuggets and wings.[6] Additionally, it includes a F*ck it Bucket, chicken karaage rice bowl, a curry karaage burger and a selection of classic Japanese sides like mac salad, furikake fries, cabbage salad, miso soup and more.[7][8][9][10]
