We ordered food during happy hour, so it felt like a good deal. The service wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great either, so it didn’t really make me want to leave a generous tip.

Ate lunch there twice during the week. The lunch special tasted fantastic and the portion was generous. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Honestly pretty average overall. The udon was super bland, and the meat didn’t taste fresh at all. They’ve got tons of menu options but none of them are actually good. No idea how this place has so many reviews and still sits above 4 stars — seriously overrated. Just go to Marugame Udon, at least their noodles have better flavor and texture.

Quite disappointed about food here. The size of the Dinner set is too much. It basically provides two regular meals. Should reduce size and lower price.
This place has some novel attempts for its menus, but think twice before you try them.

We went to TsuruTonTan for their 50% off special menu after 8 PM, and it was such a great deal! I ordered the mentaiko kamatama, which is one of my absolute favorites, and it didn’t disappoint — rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. My partner got the sizzling sukiyaki, which was flavorful and comforting.

We also shared the spicy ahi roll and shio kombu cabbage. Everything was delicious except the cabbage — it had a bit too much sesame oil, and the oil tasted slightly oxidized, almost like it had been sitting out or exposed to sunlight.

Overall, though, the food and value were excellent, and the 50% off menu made it even better. Definitely worth going back for their udon and late-night specials!

This restaurant was surprisingly very disappointing. The server recommended we order the number one item from the menu as well as the curry that was number four on the highly recommended menu. The number one rated item that we ordered was honestly not appetizing at all. It was just a bunch of meats, boiled in super plain, barely seasoned water. The noodles were cooked well, but some of the chicken tasted super raw. We also ordered some appetizers of chicken karage, cucumbers, and some drinks. The curry is definitely a 10 out of 10, but nothing else on the menu was worth it. After proceeding to tell the server that my order was super bad, she did nothing to make my experience at the restaurant better.

Really good chewy udon. The sunshine roll was delicious. The spicy miso udon was 🔥🔥🔥🔥. The beef udon is good but I prefer the marugame beed udon more.

Diego was great. Awesome udon an sushi, plus $3.00 Sapporo is the best. That's their September special.

But not a fan of the 2% kitchen fee
