I went for dinner early on a Saturday. We arrived when they opened and we were warmly greeted by the chef/waiter.I really liked the more old fashioned approach with no super expensive Omakase options. There were 3 of us and we ordered all our favorite nigiris and rolls accompanied by hot sake. All the fish selections were very fresh and generously cut. We ate until fully satiated and finished off dinner with a refreshing orange and another carafe of sake on the house. If I lived...
I made a reservation at Tanuki after walking by many times and loving the cozy atmosphere. The chef greets everyone as they enter and was so warm. My parents were visiting, and none of us had much experience with sushi.His wife was our waitress and very kindly guided us through the menu. We ordered what she suggested, and ate every morsel. Food was so fresh and delicious.My parents talked about that meal the rest the trip. Will definitely be back.
