Authentic Japanese food with some unique selection of sake. Sushi, sashimi, rolls, fried, pot, pan fried, you have all the options to pick from. The portion is on the small side. It is ideal to have 4 people so that you could share the varieties of food. Restaurant...Read More

Gyu tan (grilled beef tongue) is soooo good. Anything eel related is amazing. Yaki Onigiri also really good. I would highly recommend reserve ahead of time to avoid waiting. This place is really popular and there’s likely a long wait if you show up without...Read More

Tanto has been a family staple to go to for years. Very traditional authentic Japanese food. Their chikuwa, grilled onigiri, shishamo, kani cream croquette, ika sugataiyaki, and tai nitsuke steamed dishes are amazing. Mentaiko pasta is just like in those Italian Japanese fusion restaurants. Sashimi moriawase is standard. If...Read More

Karage is the best in the area, nothing to complain except the portion. However, beef tendon is literally beef flank. After we pointed it out, they still insisted it to be tendon but took the dish back. Food: 4 Service: 1

This restaurant is extremely overrated! The food is neither fresh nor flavorful. Today, I ordered two fish dishes, and both were clearly spoiled—tasting like they'd been sitting in the fridge for over a month. The potato gravy and crab were no better; they tasted old,...Read More
