About Tuna Kahuna

Tuna Kahuna is a popular poke restaurant located in downtown Burlingame, known for its fresh fish and friendly staff. The restaurant offers a cozy atmosphere with counter and indoor/outdoor seating, serving adult beverages. The poke bowls feature very fresh fish with great flavors, including the highly praised chili oil bowl and the option to build your own bowl, allowing customers to choose from various toppings. While the prices tend to be on the pricier side, the quality of ingredients makes it worth it. Portion sizes can vary depending on the bowl chosen, and customers often find the food to be delicious and fresh. Options like the Tuna shiso wasabi bowl, which includes cured egg for a unique flavor, and the salmon bowls are well-received. The miso soup is flavorful, often with added egg, making it more tasty than typical sushi restaurant miso. Every dish is well prepared and fresh, with ingredients that don’t need extra seasoning to enjoy. Fish and toppings like beets and tangerine slices are less common but add a special touch. The staff is friendly, and service is quick, with the owner, Quan, being noted for his warm hospitality and personal touch in checking in on diners. On weekends, there is a Chef’s Table dinner with high-end dishes at reasonable prices. Overall, it’s an ideal spot for casual dining or special occasions, with attention to detail and a welcoming atmosphere that leaves customers excited to return.
