In 2003, he was named the 13th Annual James Beard Foundation Award for Best Chef: Midwest. In 2005, he opened Okada for Steve Wynn in the luxurious Wynn Las Vegas, where he created a contemporary Japanese menu influenced by his French Training. He has since become a member of the Macy's culinary council and he opened Noodles by Takashi Yagihashi at Macy's in Chicago before opening his namesake restaurant in December 2007. Takashi also owns and operates another Chicago based restaurant, a Japanese-style ramen house called The Slurping Turtle which opened in November of 2011. He is featured on an episode of Iron Chef America in the 2012 season where it was mentioned that he started cooking because he needed money for milk. Chef Takashi credits that as the start of his cooking career.
