The food is authentic, the ambiance is cool. The value for your money is okay. The staff are courteous. The location is kinda far and in the busy area of Muscat

Great restaurant for authentic Japanese habachi grill style food and sushi! Have lived in Muscat for a little over a year and this is our go to place for great sushi at a good price. The hibachi grill is a little more expensive but the chef puts on a good show if you sit at the grill tables so to... More

Tokyo Taro is a Japanese Restaurant located in a Hotel in the Ruwi neighborhood. It's a bit difficult to find but just look at the tallest building in Ruwi, Al Falaj Hotel, and you will find it. It is very authentic and one of the best sushi restaurants in town. Atmosphere is very relaxing and the waiters are friendly. Restaurant... More

Wanted to try something different in Muscat and looked through the reviews. Tried it once will not make the effort to go back. Average food average service and a host who gave away our table after being late by 20 mins. Late due to trying to find their obscure location and insufficient parking because it used by a hospital. Hostess... More

I don't know why, but the food is either very good, or very average. I go there for Japanese comfort food like katsudon, and often find it very good, but am sometimes disappointed. I guess that's why I would rate it average at best.

I experienced the worst service tonight at Tokyo Taro. We had been to Tokyo Taro quite a few times, but tonight so many things went wrong. First of all, after taking my order of Sashimi Bento box, the waitress came back saying that they run out of sashimi's. Only salmon is available. So she offered to replace my Sashimi Bento... More

Food is good but ambience is way cooler. We enjoyed the food, cannot really comment about authenticity. Staff were polite, very attentive and responsive.

The Japanese food here is excellent. I especially like the sushi. I don't go very often because it is near Ruwi and a bit difficult to get to. I wish it were nearer to where I live.
