Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in The Omakase Experience?
The Omakase Experience is a chef-guided tasting where each course is selected and prepared based on the freshest, most exceptional ingredients available that evening. Dishes build across courses, so the meal develops naturally from start to finish. It's ideal for special occasions where you want the chef to make all the decisions.Can you dine a la carte instead of omakase?
Yes — Tahk Omakase Sushi offers a full a la carte menu alongside the omakase experience. Guests can order individual sushi, sashimi, specialty rolls, izakaya-style small plates, and tempura at their own pace, building the meal around what interests them most without committing to a set tasting menu.What kind of events does Tahk host or cater?
Tahk handles weddings, private parties, corporate gatherings, and special celebrations both in-venue and off-site. The private dining space accommodates up to 100 guests with professional servers and full event staffing. Catering includes on-site delivery, professional setup, and experienced catering bartenders.Do you offer full cocktail bar service for events?
Yes — Tahk's Full Cocktail Bar features Japanese-inspired drinks and classic craft cocktails. For private events and venue rentals, experienced catering bartenders manage bar service throughout the evening, keeping drinks flowing without guests waiting. The bar is included with private venue buyouts.What days and hours is Tahk Omakase Sushi open?

Tahk Omakase Sushi is located at 737 Lincoln Ave in Steamboat Springs, CO 80487. The restaurant is situated along Steamboat's main corridor, accessible for both local residents and mountain visitors staying in the area.Does Tahk use premium ingredients like A5 wagyu?
Yes — the menu features premium A5 wagyu imported from Japan, which carries the fine marbling and buttery texture that distinguishes it from domestic beef. Fresh sashimi, specialty rolls, and izakaya-style dishes are also prepared with quality ingredients that reflect authentic Japanese culinary standards.How does high altitude affect catering in Steamboat Springs?
At 6,732 feet, outdoor events in Steamboat Springs cool quickly after sunset, and mountain transit can affect food temperature and texture. Tahk's catering team accounts for these conditions — keeping raw fish properly chilled, maintaining tempura crispness, and timing service so dishes arrive at their best regardless of venue or weather.Can you book a private venue buyout for a wedding?
Yes — Tahk offers exclusive private venue rentals for weddings, anniversaries, corporate events, and celebrations. The buyout gives your group full use of the space, dedicated servers, catering bartenders, and a customized menu for up to 100 guests.
