Tsunami Panhandle Reviews
Daaaaaamn. We had a fantastic time here, we’ve been to Japan twice and this is up there with some of the best sushi we’ve ever had. Service was crazy, super sociable and made the whole experience better. Can’t wait to come back here. The vibe is immaculate.
They have a great happy hour, highly recommend! Rainbow roll, oysters, sake, and carpaccio — all delicious. Victoria was our waitress, very nice and helpful
