This is my second time coming through Squamish in the past 3 years and I remember seeing this place as we were passing by. Finally stopped in the area for lunch this year and we all agreed to try this restaurant. Oh my god, although we were skeptical, they did not disappoint! The moment we walked in, we knew it was going to be authentic because the staff were Japanese. My partner ordered the Paitan Shio Ramen which was delicious, flavourful and a very generous portion size. The soup base was on point and not too salty. I ordered the Tuna Avocado Roll and Negitoro Cone, and both were very fresh and delightful to eat. Loved the environment in this place even though it's small. Loved the wood vibes and the washroom sign! Would highly recommend trying this place if you're headed to or driving through Squamish! read more

Fast service, excellent service, and delicious food! I love that they serve ramen and sushi! The place is small but the turn over rate is exceptional. I got the miso soup which was not overly salty, with a lot of green onions (I love) and enoki mushrooms (also love). The veggie gyoza was ok, but not over flavourful. I would pass. Their tofu nuggets were replicas of chicken nuggets. Delicious flavor and a ton of green onions! They yam and avocado roll was fresh and well balanced between rice, avocado, and yam. Loved pairing it with ginger! Service was great, fast, and friendly! Would totally recommend! read more

Was quickly seated on a Friday night before the dinner rush. We ordered the sushi combo and ramen combo with the Paita Shoyu broth with pork and veggies and side of sushi. The sushi was a miss for us because the ratio of fish to rice was not great, too heavy on the rice. The ramen was the star of the night. The broth was super flavourful and there was an endless amount of noodles. Next time, we'd only order the ramen. Great family friendly restaurant and service. read more

Busy little spot in Squamish mid-week. Service is great and they serve really fresh sashimi including blue fin tuna. Probably the best sushi joint owned by a local Japanese couple. The menu is extensive and they have a lovely back patio. read more

I was pleasantly surprised with this place in Squamish. I ordered the Paitan Shoyu Ramen- it was on the lighter end as far as a Tonkotsu base but the flavour was there and the usual profiles I look for in the broth, noodles, and toppings were there. The chasu was on the thin side and they only give you one ( usually there's two or more in most places) the noodles were just right and the broth (shoyu based Tonkotsu ) had depth. The menma was standard Service was good and the place looked new and it was busy during my visit. Lots of street parking too. read more

Rainy day at Whistler so we drove down to try their ramen. It was a good thing we arrived just prior to opening. There was already 2 parties out front ahead of us. Shortly after, all seating was full. We tried the Paitan Shoyu ramen, Asahikawa Shoyu ramen and Taka Pork & Vegetable miso ramen. All soup bases were so flavourful. I had the Paitan Shoyu which was creamy and rich in flavour. It had a hint of smokiness (?) and was so delicious with the noodles. The noodles here were softer compared to a more chewy textured noodle at some other places. I personally prefer a chewier noodle but the broth made up for that. The egg had a beautiful rich, deep orange (like a sunset) yolk. It was nicely cooked but I wish it had a bit more flavour to the marinade. We got inaris as sides, as well as torched salmon and ebi. My husband also ordered salmon sashimi which he said was super fresh! All-in-all, we loved the find and will definitely come back! read more

I will never forget our meal at Taka Ramen, it was the perfect hidey-hole. I had the Paitan Shio and let me tell you it's the perfect meal to warm the soul on a cold rainy day. The service was excellent! The staff was so kind and inviting. The ambiance was perfect. The space felt intimate and even though it was packed, it did not feel loud at all. I will definitely go back! read more

Taka Ramen - Super tasty small looking but packed full of flavor, perfect after a great hike. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Squamish, British Columbia

My expectation for Japanese foods is pretty high given I grew up and lived in Japan for a quite long time. When I first saw this restaurant, I wasn't expecting much as Squamish isn't know for Japanese foods (but it is a great place regardless!). After trying a few dishes, I completely changed my mind. Everything we have tried here has been great! They also have some food items you would only see in Japan. I highly recommend trying their sushi, seaweed salad, and veggie / healthy ramen. read more

Taka Ramen - Nigiri - Sushi Bars Near Me - Squamish, British Columbia

This place is located in the heart of Squamish, BC. Parking along the main street can be hard to find, so be prepared to look for a parking lot farther away. Overall, this place was quite ordinary with nothing really standing out. The service was 3 stars, since the waitress questioned our selection of food when we asked questions. The quality of the rolls and ramen were also 2.5-3 stars. The rolls had dried-up rice and the ramen had only one slice of very fatty pork. However, the flavor was ok. When we went, it was really hot outside, but this place still did not turn on their air conditioning. Therefore, it was uncomfortable eating ramen as one tends to sweat. read more

I didn't expect Squamish to have delicious ramen and sushi, but Taka Ramen does not disappoint. Well worth a stop after a long day of climbing, biking, or hiking. And best enjoyed with friends, so you can try absolutely everything. read more

Just went today with my hubby and daughter when we passed by Squamish for lunch on our way back from Whistler, and we were blown away. This place is a hidden gem. Excellent quality sashimi. Added details to the rolls with roasted sesame seeds and yuzu zest were amazing. Definitely will need to come back again the next time we pass by. Top. Notch. read more

This place is definitely a hidden gem. I visited Squamish briefly with my boyfriend. We were craving some ramen and this was the only one nearby. Service was great, parking was easy to find (public lot nearby), and the area is filled with nice shops and restaurants to walk around. I gotta say - everything we tried was delicious. The Taka Pork and Vegetable Miso ramen was flavorful and filling and the Hako sushi tasted high quality and left me craving for more. I also loved their hot green tea (free refills) - so much so that I asked them for a cup to go. For very reasonable prices, I would highly recommend this place for anyone craving Japanese food. It even beats many of the Japanese food I've tried back in Los Angeles, CA at this price. read more

Really great ramen place in Squamish! Came here with my girlfriend after we hiked at Shannon Falls and it was the perfect meal for an overcast day. We both got the ramen combo with hako sushi. Asahikawa Shio Ramen 5/5: This was really good! Super simple but super comforting broth. Very flavorful without being too salty. One of the better shio ramen I've ever had. Highly recommend for a classic ramen. Hako Sushi 5/5 I got the salmon and sea bream sushi. Both were really good, especially the salmon! Would definitely order again. The hot green tea was also really really good and complemented the hot ramen perfectly. The staff is friendly and answered all of our questions, and even gave us a free refill of hot green tea to-go. Good location in a walkable area, and there's parking nearby on the street or in a public lot. A must-stop if you're looking for Japanese food in Squamish. read more

Our favorite place to eat in Squamish! I plan my visits around Taka's days open (closed on Sunday and Monday). The food is so fresh, great variety and amazing fish specials (so look at the specials menu!). For the quality of fish you're getting, the price is excellent. The vibes are great both indoor and outdoor. If you're craving ramen, it is also very flavorful here. Everyone is super nice and helpful when I'm trying to figure out which of all the great menu items I'm going to order. read more

Great sushi. Large portion sizes for the sashimi. Good value. Ramen was excellent too.

I ordered spicy vegan ramen since I was craving something spicy and this one hit the note! Loved the level of spice and it was so delicious. I was served quickly, but it took a while to get me seated even though I was alone (it was really busy when I arrived). Beautiful ambiance with great views in a cute little Squamish town. read more

Incredible food, love the staff and owners. Love everything about this business. We go weekly !! Downtown Squamish

The vegan Ramen and poke were both delicious! The poke is a smaller version - more of an appetizer unless you want to eat a lot of white rice at the bottom ... then it would be filling. I'm just not a white rice fan. All very delicious tho! read more

The atmosphere of the shop was cozy and service was pretty good. Only one thing that I got surprised was hot tea was charged. Usually at sushi restaurant, they don't charge for the tea so we thought it free but seems not. Menu was small but difficult to catch the information because lot of information was on the menu. But everything was perfect. read more
