One Star ... maybe – From all the amazing reviews, I thought this would be the best sushi in the city. Wrong, wrong, wrong. I went last night w a friend. It's trendy, I guess, and they def squeeze as many tables in there as possible. The service was s-l-o-w and our waitress in particular kind of hung around the table waiting for us to order more food even when we'd say 'so, I think that's all for now'. Odd. The fish is fresh, I'll give them that, but the rolls are totally small for the price and I highly recommend staying aw... read more
WHAT, YOU HAVEN'T HEARD? – NOT IMPRESSED @ ALL. DEFINATELY FELT LIKE AN OUTSIDER IN THIS HIPSTER HAVEN. SUSHI IS PAR @ BEST, AND THE STAFF SEEMED TO BE WAY MORE INTERESTED IN THE INDIE ROCK BAND PLAYING LATER THAT NIGHT THAN THE MEAL I WAS ORDERING. I FREQUENT MANY SUSHI RESTAURANTS IN THE CITY THAT HAVE A GOOD BUZZ ABOUT THEM, BUT THIS ONE WAS WAY OVERRATED. LOWER YOUR PRICES, AND LEARN TO APPRECIATE YOUR CUSTOMERS. SERVICE IS WHAT ATTRACTS SOMEONE TO A RESTAURANT AND THE FOOD IS WHAT KEEPS THEM COMING BACK. AT THIS POINT T... read more
Very Good – I have been here two times and I was struck by how relaxed the setting is it be sitting at the bar or lounge area although the lounge felt a bit tight at least the table we got. the place has a great energy about it with very cute servers who realy knew their product and very fun cute chefs working the bar. We had sake bottle on both visits and both times the recommendation was excellent with way cheaper prices than I had at ozumo for example and much better list. Tsunami only draw back is that there is no parkin... read more
Great fish, but kinda pretentious – First of all, no qualms with the sushi. It was very tasty and fresh. The problem is that there are probably a dozen other sushi places with as good or better fish. In this competitive market, it is imperative for waitstaff to make each and every customer feel comfortable and wanted. I left tsunami feeling that I was neither welcomed nor wanted. I should elaborate, it wasn't that I was affirmatively mistreated, just that I felt like a leper. It seemed that the waitstaff was more concerned w... read more
Loud and expensive mediocre sushi. – My wife and I have eaten at many sushi restaurants in the city. We have our favorites, but we also like to branch out and try new ones. Last night we took a friend to Tsunami and I was really dissapointed. I can't believe this place got a rating of 9.8! The portions are very small, the prices are WAY above average. Most of the sushi was just OK. Some sushi was really good, and one was really bad. The Ikura I ordered was showing signs of age - they eggs loose there firmness and start to ge... read more
Excellent – This place is gourgous in design and seems to offer the best sushi in the city. Fish is super fresh with emphasis on presentation. The chefs wear funky street clothes and they are all young and act very fun behind sushi bar. Now the killer in this place is the sake list that I dont think exists anywhere in this city .. we sampled couple of diffrent sakes then got a nice Junmai sake bottle that was excellent. All in all, this place is great but for those who are on "budgets" probably not the best spot for them.. i... read more
Not worth your money!!! – Cocktails are tasty, get in for happy hour if you can. Rolls are crazy expensive and small portioned. Menu is also pretty limited. Fish is fine, but not spectacular, and esp for the price. Service is friendly, middle tables are a bit cramped and close to one another. Total was $120 for two people incl 2 drinks each (one at happy hour) and we definitely WERE NOT full.
melts in your mouth – this place is tres expensive.... and worth every penny. if you have the means and love sushi, you must have a seat here. Bring your appetite, and plan to stay awhile
If You Know Sushi You Will Like This Place – This is so like izakaya eateries in Japan where you drink & eat a lot but the only diffrance you have an all exclusive menu of sushi. The product served is very fresh and presentation seemed to be highly emphasized. service is remarkable with the servers beinf not only cute but friendly with such a large sake list makes this place the one sushi joint to eat at. Ohh I must say I dont agree with the reviw before mine.. they have no idea & my review was based on 2 visits
