Tomo Japanese Restaurant - Authentic Japanese Restaurant in Rincon,GA

Tonight was our first visit, but it definitely won’t be our last. Don’t know why we hadn’t been before now. The food was GREAT! Fast friendly service. Y’all have to go!

The food was very delicious overall. I started out with the sushi ? sampler appetizer. The sushi was fresh and delicious, the wasabi and pickled ginger were a nice accompaniment to this dish. For my entreé, I had ribeye & shrimp hibachi with fried rice and steamed vegetables. Other dishes included steak & shrimp hibachi, fried shrimp, fried vegetables with fried rice, and the final fish was teriyaki salmon with fried rice and steamed vegetables.

Parking: Lots of free parking. Located at a shopping mall.

This little Japanese restaurant is a hidden gem in Rincon. They have some of the best American style Japanese dishes in the area. Tomo also has a wide selection of beverages on their drink menu.

If you are looking for great quality Japanese food without driving to Savannah, this is a great choice

My pic from left to right: New York roll, Crazy Tomo roll (maki), Effingham roll, Hollywood roll

Crazy Tomo was my absolute favorite one, really delicious. Not much to say beyond that, just highly recommend and will order this again.

I really enjoyed the New York roll, to me it had a subtle sweetness to it that went great with a light dip of soy sauce.

Hollywood was great. This was my first time trying any type of cooked/hot sushi, but I enjoyed the cream cheese inside this fried roll, would definitely order this again.

Effingham roll was ok. The pieces were packed with a lot of ingredients then deep fried so they were quite large and had to be eaten in 2 bites. Again, not used to cooked sushi, and never had Jalapeno in sushi. The flavor profile of it really threw me off. If you like cooked sushi and jalapenos I think you'd enjoy this. It is well made, just not my personal preference.

Will be back to try other sushi rolls. :)

We were not expecting much as far as sushi in Rincon. We were pleasantly surprised and now make this a regular stop.

Great food, friendly staff,fair pricing. Tomo's is one of our go to places when family visits. When Ricon was devastated by Hurricane Matthew and we had no means to cook, Tomos was working to keep everyone feed.

My wife and I just moved near here, and we were looking for a sushi spot. I saw several on the map, but most looked like chain restaurants. We really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service. We ordered a couple of appetizers, Fried Gyoza and Yellowtail, with Jalapeño. Both came out rather quickly, and they were delicious. For the main, we split the Pink Lady Roll and Fusion Roll. Wonderful! Service was prompt and friendly. We'll go back to try the rest of the menu.

The sashimi appetizer & Salmon sashimi were truly some of the absolute best cuts of fish I have ever had. The standard rolls (California, Salmon Avacado, Philadelphia & Scallop) were all great as well. We found the Gulf Stream to be too carb heavy (rice pancake) and light on fish and while I found the Wall Street to be a bit oversauced the rest of the group loved it. I was disappointed that the seaweed salad was basically a stack of cucumber loosely shrouded w/seaweed but liked the masago topping. Our server was sweet, but we would have liked to have been offered an extra plate for our edamame shells and had to ask for chopsticks and soy sauce bowls and the process to order a bottle of Malbec was overly complicated though once it arrived the taste and value could not be ignored. Overall the food and politeness of the staff outweigh any of the *minor* complaints we had and if we return (we do not live nearby otherwise I'd say "when") we would just order all the chef's choice sushi/sashimi options because they really do know what they are doing here and the quality ingredients do not need any dressing up with rolls and extra sauces at all.

Tomo is pretty yummy, but the staff isn't very friendly. The wait was pretty long. The facility is ok. They are trying some upgrades.

Mediocre at best. Super long wait to be seated and arrival of food. Over one hour. Chaotic environment. Food ranged for poor to average. Service, aside from the waiting process, was pretty good. Shrimp had the digestive tract left in and was rubbery with a distinct fishy aroma. Local and would not return. C-

We've been to Tomo's several times and have always had good service. Food has always been very well presented and delicious. It is one of our favorite Japanese restaurants. Restaurant and bathrooms are clean, and the wait staff are polite and respectful.

You can tell they're really trying to build this into a great destination. Regular improvement of the seating helps a lot. Food's not the best ever, but never disappoints.
