Taiko Japanese Restaurant

Taiko Japanese Restaurant has been a beloved fixture in Irvine, CA for over 40 years, welcoming families and loyal regulars to its warm, unpretentious dining room on Jeffrey Road. The restaurant is celebrated for its exceptionally fresh oysters and beautifully cut sashimi, with guests returning time and again for both. A standout off-menu secret is the Honeymoon Oyster, a luxurious combination of oyster, uni, quail eggs, and salmon eggs that keeps diners in the know coming back. The space suits family outings and group hangouts alike, with outdoor dining available for those who prefer an open-air meal. Priced accessibly for the quality on offer, Taiko delivers a consistently satisfying Japanese dining experience.
