Take Mikado - Oestersund Sverige

If you are near Östersund, do not miss the Take Mikado Retaurant. Beautiful Japanese food experience well worth a big detour. We enjoyed an excellent 5-course meal. Just remember to book a table at least 3 days in advance, preferably 5 days!

As someone who has dined at many sushi restaurants around the world, I found the presentation good but not extraordinary like some people have stated. I was disappointed to see the lack of tuna in the sashimi order, which is one of the favourites around the globe. I also found it odd that green tea was not served before the meal. The prices are far too expensive in my opinion for what you receive when compared to high end sushi restaurants. Furthermore the fact I paid for a pretty expensive multiple course meal, coffee was extra with the dessert. Really? You cant throw in a coffee in a course that costs over 1000kr? I guess they can charge what they want for being unique here, but unique compared to the rest of the world let alone Sweden, they are not. However, the food was delicious and the staff courteous. But, I cannot give a high rating based on my personal experience with sushi places I have dined at in the past.

Outstanding authentic sushi in the heart of Norrland, crafted by a skilled Japanese chef!

As someone who has dined at many sushi restaurants around the world, I found the presentation at this restaurant to be good, but not exceptional as some have claimed. I was disappointed to see the lack of tuna in the sashimi order, which is a favorite worldwide. I also found it odd that green tea was not served before the meal. The prices, in my opinion, are too high for what is offered, especially when compared to high-end sushi restaurants. Additionally, I was surprised to find out that coffee was not included with the expensive set meal and was served at an extra cost with dessert. The food was delicious, but I cannot give a high rating based on my personal experiences at other sushi restaurants I have visited in the past. The staff was friendly, but this restaurant does not stand out as unique compared to others around the world.
