Good First Date Spot – This was one of the first places I took a date to and so far hasn't disappointed. They have really good food presentation and sake selection. The sake sampler is definately a good idea, plus it is kind of fun for you and your date to try different kinds of sake :)
Tsunami rocks! – Okay, so I just joined CitySearch specifically to respond to "bemymuse's" ridiculous and totally off-base review. She claims the service was bad, the food was mediocre and the waitress was "plain & dowdy." I mean, come on! Who says something like that when they're reviewing a restaurant? Anyway, just wanted to add my 2-cents, because I've been going to Tsunami since it opened and I have never had a bad experience there. The service is always great, the atmosphere is fun and the food is amazing. Definitely ha... read more
User review by pete876 – Reading the review before mine I was surprised to note that tsunami was desribed as unauthentic... I think most people here, like the reviewer before me have no idea what authentic Japanese food is ... authentic is not california roll ! I lived in Japan and close to 90% of sushi restaurants in the US are not authentic. Tsunami 'I think' prides itself about its fusion style and the times I have been there they described their food as new world sushi.. Not being authentic is not an insult !Getting a cl... read more
Unauthentic,bad service,overpriced – My boyfriend lives in the neighborhood, one night we had a sushi craving it was late to go to Japantown so we asked his roomate about nearby Tsunami and she warned us it was overpriced. While strolling down Fulton we walked past Tsunami and my boyfriend suggested we go in, I trust his opinion because everyplace he has ever taken me has been hip & good... we sat @ the bar, I asked the bartender for water and she proceeded to serve me an industrial size bottle of Perrie that I didn't eve wa... read more
Excellent – This is probably the best priced happy hour cocktails I ever tried in the city... Only $2 a drink when it is usually $6, added to that discounted sushi that is probably some of the best in the city... This place is extremly trendy and always alive with the best music and the hippest customers & sexiest girls Ive ever seen work. I cant think of another place where everything about it falls perfectly in place... This is a restaurant that works well in all its angels.. It is a new concept and it works
extremly friendly & informative – Reading the review before mine made me surprised a bit. It stated service was horrible yet friendly ! food is good but there are better thus it was horrible ...How could that be !! My experince like many times before was excellent. Although I could be counted as a regular thus they know me, I still think service over all is perfect. I was recived with smiles, explanation of specials and constsnt check ups on me & my boyfriend. Food cannot be described as average.. it is truly one of the best... read more
Overrated and Horrible Service – I was sorely disappointed with my experience here. The service was awful. Our waitress was friendly enough when she actually appeared at our table and the food didn't make up for much. Presentation is obviously a focus, but there are numerous better rolls and sashimi in this city. The sake menu was impressive, but the entire experience was horribly overpriced. Maybe it was just an off night, but i'm not racing to return anytime soon.
Best Yet – My second time & I loved it more that the first. This time I tried the papasan and waooo ... what a role. My friends ordered sachimi & I tasted some & it was incredibly fresh. Service was very friendly and extremly informative when we asked about sake'. This place is more than a resturant..I think it combines a bar, food & a club feel to it and we stayed longer than they wanted us to I think... we took some time from the coming reservations .. sorry guys but we liked it soo much
What happened – What's going on with the food there these days. It used to be fantastic but the last 2 time I went it's been way below average and the portions are getting smaller by the week. This place was great when it opened but I don't think I can justify paying that much for average quality.
