WELCOME TO CLOAK & PETAL!Where we invite you to journey into a place of both intimacy and companionshipOur concept is drawn from our name. The word “cloak” implies secrecy, inspiring our concept of a social sphere humming beneath the levels of ordinary life. “Petal” alludes to the Japanese tradition of “hanami,” when family and friends gather under blooming cherry blossoms to savor food, drinks and fellowship.Enter our space and travel underground to décor reminiscent of an abandoned Tokyo subway, a stratum of society all its own, an artist’s dream. Cross the threshold into a mystically transformed Japanese social dining lounge which appears to be an outdoor seating area, similar to a waiting platform. Sit beneath a trellis of draping vines and teardrop lights in the intimate space we’ve thoughtfully created, and feast on authentic Japanese sushi, appetizers, small plates and drinks with family and friends.Journey down to Cloak + Petal… and come unwind your soul.

Celebrated my wife's birthday and TAKO did not disappoint. Great Service, The Food was outstanding, the ambiance, music and vibe was awesome. This is a great place. It is a speakeasy fully decorated from the time you walk through the secret door, up the stairs, and into the perfect setting for fun. I highly recommend TAKO.

We had a great time! Our server was awesome. I wish I could remember her name. The food was delicious. There was a band playing inside so we sat outside on the heated patio. It was fun and lovely. The drinks were great.
