Our Story

Since opening our restaurants in Ponsonby and Kingsland in 2008,
Taiko has become a beloved dining destination for Aucklanders and out of towners. Building upon a proud legacy that earned a spot in Metro Magazine’s 'Top 50 Asian Restaurants' in 2008, we continue to deliver the true artistry of traditional Japanese cuisine.

From intimate couples to large gatherings, and with thoughtful options for vegetarians, our diverse menu is expertly crafted to delight everyone. Experience exceptionally fresh sushi and authentic flavors, perfectly paired with our fine selection of sake and wine.
