Takaya at Nanluogu Xiang is a homey Japanese restaurant that seats around 20, featuring a wooden sushi bar, cat-related ornaments, craft pottery, and Japanese posters.
Prices are reasonable, with sashimi costing RMB 50-58 for five pieces, sushi going for RMB 28-50 for two pieces, sushi rolls RMB 42-88, and meat-over-rice meals priced between RMB 36-38. They also provide sukiyaki (Japanese hot pot, RMB 58), and barbecued dishes to go with the drinks.
Takaya's Dongzhimen venue has a more upgraded feel and includes fish that is shipped fresh from Japan, and Kaiseki options (RMB 398/598/980), which are changed weekly. The space has an open dining room with two tables of four, a sushi bar with five seats, a private room for eight people, and a small garden.
