Wow just wow!! From the presentation to the taste everything was amazing! Keep in mind reservations only through Instagram. Sushi_Tanaka and reservations can vary from 1
-2 months and cash only. Worth the wait.

Chef Tanaka is a legend. Food was unreal. Who knew Simi valley had a good omakase ! Never driving to DTLA again when I have Tanaka in my backyard !! Highly recommend to anyone who wants a great omakase experience with GREAT quality fish ! Already made a reservation to come back.

Their phone number is not working. It is disconnected. I tried Instagram, Facebook. I tried to reach out to them with no luck. They will not take you if you go in person. They insist on reservations. There is no way to get ahold of them. Very frustrating. It's almost as if they don't care. Not one bit! And terrible hours of operation. Very unprofessional.

The BEST hands down omakase sushi experience I've ever had. The attention to detail is impeccable! The flavors are unmatched, and the only downside is you will never want to get sushi from another restaurant ever again. Seii is amazing, and so is his craft!

This is by far the best sushi around here. There is nothing else nearby that even comes close. The chef is amazing.

It's hard to believe Sushi Tanaka opened in Simi – it has zero 5-star hotels, and is the same place Joe Dirt (and your humble reviewer) calls home. For sure the Malibu crowd ignores this strip mall✌️

Maybe that makes Sushi Tanaka special: serving fish simply, presented with gossamer humility. Let me explain.

Take our 3rd/15 Omakase-style feature: Bluefin Toro, the tuna's belly, a fattier and rarer cut. Find it, and the chef may get fancy.

But not Chef Tanake. Some sea salt, pepper, and a smattering of soy sauce is all his Toro needs. He steps away from the dish almost knowing it's your first time, keeping it unadulterated.

Why belie the root taste and texture of the fish? Perhaps therein lies the genius. Instead of varying Japanese scallop, Sea bream, Splendid alfonsino, or any of the other 15 dishes with side shows, Chef Tanaka presents things as simply as possible.

For this, I give him five stars, and can't wait for my next excursion into the delicate and simple.

Fantastic omakase in Simi Valley. Everything fish that was served was fantastic. Shari was well season and the fish was fresh.

Have yet to try this place. But website states it’s open till 10pm. It’s only 8:30pm on a Thursday night and place is closed. Not good for business.

Best sushi I have had ANYWHERE. Eaten sushi all over the country including spots with Michelin stars. Nowhere is as good as this place. Great value for omakase, fish is great quality and cut perfectly, rice is damn near perfect I’ve never had better in my life. Can’t say enough good things about this place. Disappointed every time I get sushi anywhere else now. Tough to get a reservation is the only problem.

A bit pricey, but well worth it. Good service, best sushi in simi valley.

Sushi Tanaka is great for a special occasion. Not to say it isn't worth it, it seriously is. I made a reservation a month in advance and at that point only 2 times were available. I thought that meant they book out early. That wasn't necessarily the case. There's about 14 seats in the restaurant and there were only 4 people including my friend and I dining for dinner.
