Greenpoint Japanese Sandwiches on Bread Baked in Front of You
Grab Greenpoint Japanese sandwiches on house-baked bread, from a chilled egg sando to warm tonkatsu with melted cheese.
🥪 Egg Sando and Tonkatsu
Taku Sando bakes soft bread in house for a tight menu of Greenpoint Japanese sandwiches at 29 Greenpoint Ave. At Taku Sando, the bread is baked right in front of you, a small bit of theater before the first bite.
Reviewers keep pointing to two sandos. The cold ajitama egg sando brings a rich, chilled bite, while the warmed pork tonkatsu can come topped with melted cheese and cabbage salad to balance the fried cutlet. Fried chicken and fish sandos round out the inexpensive menu.
Seating is limited to a few tables and an air conditioned back room, plus a quiet backyard garden for a slower lunch outside the shop. Smaller parties fit easily, and takeout is popular. The shop runs daily from half past eleven AM to 8 PM, leaving room for an early dinner after a Greenpoint walk.
