Taiko Lunch Special was so fulfilling for the whining and eager stomach like mine this afternoon. I took a drive from Laguna Beach which was about 20 min. away from this restaurant which is at 5 FWY @ 133 interchange. It was a very pleasurable drive, very peaceful and natural. This route is one of the rare scenic highways remaining in the middle of Southern California.
This was a pretty nice spot for some Japanese food. The waiter was very nice and attentive. The food is brought very quickly as well, and tastes very good. The dine-in entrance is in the back, which is a little weird. Tamago rolls were amazing here, one of the best we tried. They have plastic utensils, which is strange. The service is fantastic, though, very attentive and responsive. Good sushi, slightly over grilled teriyaki chicken, but still good, nice green iced tea. We had a to-go order, which was well-packed and brought after we finished.
Didn’t try any sushi as we only ordered Udon. Well priced and delicious. We were also given miso soup before our food arrived, it was very good especially with the cool weather. Customer service was good despite it being full. Nice atmosphere as well. Would come here again.
