Taku Sando - Brooklyn, New York

Ceci

This has to be the best sandwich I’ve ever had. The fluffy milk bread paired with crunchy katsu, topped with a sweet and savory sauce is literally a heaven-sent combo.

Taku Sando was such a great choice for a cold day, and I would definitely recommend you all to try it out! It’s tucked by the water in Greenpoint, and makes a fun day of exploring the area after satisfying your food cravings.

Speed biked here, just before closing, so we could get our hands on their sandwiches. Initially we thought we’d be able to get their Ramen sandwich but unfortunately that was a one time thing. However, these two, were still so delicious! ?

Basically prepare to pay $18 for a sandwich. I wanted to be mad but after each bite the sandwich got better and better. It is good. But I definitely felt robbed but also satisfied. Im glad I stopped in to try it out and the place is super cute. I chose take out and they packaged the food well. The sandwich is a nice size, the bread throws me off a bit because it reminds me of a school cafeteria but that worked as well. Lets just say I will come back if someone else is treating!

The best katsu sandos in New York! The pork cutlet is the tastiest, but all the others are excellent too. Perfectly made bread and a great wine selection. Beautiful design and a charming, cozy courtyard.

Right now, ASAP, put Taku Sando in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, on your must try list! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. The staff is incredibly accommodating; they even treated us to a free egg salad Sando because they made an extra! What a delightful surprise!

Now, let's talk about the food—specifically, the Chicken Katsu Sando. The bread is simply perfect; it's soft and pillowy, creating an ideal base for the delicious fillings. The chicken cutlet inside was fried to perfection—so tender and juicy, it didn't have a hint of dryness. Every bite was a heavenly experience!

Accompanying the sandwich were potato chips with sriracha ketchup, and they blew me away! Lightly fried, these chips were far from greasy, allowing the fresh potato flavor to shine through. The sriracha ketchup added just the right kick, making them irresistible.

To top it all off, the backyard area is a fantastic spot to hang out with friends. The cute fire pits create a cozy ambiance that's perfect for enjoying food and conversation. Whether you're dining in or taking out, Taku Sando is a must-visit. I can't wait to go back!

This place is absolutely fire ?. Sandwiches are out of this world. Highly recommend the egg salad sandwich. I know it might sound basic, but it’s out of this world. Super light and fluffy. The bread is also homemade and to die for. If you’re in Greenpoint, highly recommend checking this spot out for lunch. They also have a big backyard space that is really nice, clean, well maintained and spacious.

The sandwiches are absolutely delicious, good portion too. I had pork ton katsu one and potato croquette one, both are well flavored and pork is juicy. Highly recommend to order its ribbon fries, once I started eating them it was impossible for me to stop.

Title: Taku Sando: An Exceptional Sando Spot You Must Visit

My first time at Taku Sando, my girlfriend dragged me out of the house early on a lovely Sunday morning. "Let’s get a Sando each," she said.

So, we ordered one chicken Sando, one pork Sando, rainbow fries, and a Yuzu drink. While waiting for our meal, let's talk about the place.

Taku Sando isn’t a big place, with about 20-30 seats including the outdoor area. I really liked the quality of the furniture and decoration there. (I’m not going to sponsor the brand, so you’ll have to visit and experience it for yourself.)

The open kitchen reveals how they create fresh milky bread right from the oven. Honestly, the kitchen felt a bit small compared to the size of the store, but it was clean, nice, and tidy. If the ventilation is stronger that would be awesome. Oh, there was a call from the register—looks like our Sandos were ready. Yeah!

One pork and one chicken Sando. My girlfriend and I agreed that the fried chicken was a bit tastier than the pork. The chicken was fresh, juicy, and tender. But the fresh homemade milky bread was the real star. It elevated the flavor to another level. Great job!

However, the rainbow fries were unexpectedly amazing. I have no idea what kind of spice powder Taku Sando used—Nori? Shichimi? Sansho? Sea salt? —but it was very, very good. You can’t miss this if you come to Taku Sando. It's a must-have.

The Yuzu drink was refreshing, but a little light. They probably intended it to balance the flavors of the meal.

To conclude, Taku Sando is a great place to stop by while walking or shopping around the green point neighborhood on a sunny Sunday. The price is reasonable, the ingredients are fresh—what else could you ask for?
