"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Takara is hands down one of the best Japanese restaurants I’ve ever been to. Every dish was incredibly fresh, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. The sushi and sashimi were some of the freshest I’ve had, and you can really tell they use high-quality ingredients. Everything tasted authentic, and every bite was amazing. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and had a relaxing atmosphere that made it easy to enjoy the meal. The menu has a great variety, so there’s something for everyone, and everything we ordered exceeded our expectations. The portions were generous, the prices were fair for the quality, and it was worth every dollar. If you’re looking for amazing Japanese food in Massachusetts, Takara is a must-visit.

"The Sushi and Scallion pancakes were spot on! I got 2 crazy maki rolls because I can never pick between shrimp tempura and spicy tuna rolls, so this is a happy marriage for me. Scallion pancakes tasted fresh and flaky."
"Craving sushi today and decided to give this place a go. Despite it being a bit further away than other places, the quality was excellent. Presentation was on point, and Price point was reasonable too! Only thing i would probably not get was the octupus, it was a bit too chewy in this format and the dressing/vinegar that was on it was a bit boring. I love octupus so if you want to branch out, its ok but ive eaten enough of it to know that to have it in sushi format might not be my preferred way of eating it. Tuna was rich and fatty and the tuna don was quite large portion sized. I had enough rice left to also have with my sake sashimi. Crab was also yummy, not very spicy imo but still tasty nonetheless. Will order again for sure!"
