Treat yourself to some authentic Japanese cuisine at this excellent izakaya . Don't miss the Toro Tataki, Uni Yakimeshi , Gyu Ishiyaki, & Gindara Yuan Yaki. Read about my visit on WinstonWanders below!! Read more

This restaurant is best restaurant for Japanese business tripper because taste is exactly same as we can have in Japan. And, they have origianl cold Ramen . This is also good taste.

Josh W

Everything on the menu is delicious. But make sure you ask which fish are fresh because not all of them are at any given time!

An Sheng

We come here every week. Very reasonable prices, almost all items are delicious. Sashimi salad , simmered taro , duck 💯

Elaine Courtney

Tapas-style food that gives you a bang for your buck. Come earlier and bring a group of friends so you can order a bunch and try all. The selection is wide and you'll find something you like!

Eugene

Flying solo on biz trip (there's a nice solo booth ) Everything was huge. Probably meant for sharing. (tanto means plenty) Got sashimi salad , anago tempura , kaki ponzu , and salmon chazuke. So full

Yevgeny Chertov

The rice ball is not as special as everyone says. It's just rice , squished in a ball, and fried with some sauce. I don't know what I expected, but that's what's I got.

Jessica Feng

The yagi onigiri is really something special. If you're not too hungry, ordering that + an entree is enough to share between 2 people. No clam ramen at dinner .

Dave Jensen

Amazing. Order the … everything. The udon had bits of tempura in it, a wonderful surprise. Long line at lunch but the wait was short .

Amazing sea urchin fried rice ! Also really good beef in stone pot. Definitely recommended.

Denis S.

Sashimi is great, rice ball is nothing special just fried rice , duck is nicely cooked, rice with sea urchin is blend.

Shirley Tsang

The sashimi salad , nabe udon , and garlic steak was bomb! Skip the karaage .

Nana

Try the sashimi salad and yaki onigiri . Two best things on the menu. Kara age is also definitely worth a try.

Karolina 🦖

For dinner take different flavor rice balls instead of regular rice . You won't be disappointed.

Liz

You can request the dinner menu during lunch hours. You won’t be disappointed.

Tj Smart

Try the Yagi onigiri .:. The slight crunch on the rice and delicate flavor of the fish is a perfectly yum combo

Jess Kono

Inexpensive , good portions! Get the wakame salad and sashimi

William Chang

Make sure to bring your A game when you order the ice cream because they give you about a pint!!

Vince Frisina

The sashimi is very fresh and well presented

Cindy Li

Dishes really small plan to order several. Don't get fried duck , chicken , or shrimp ball . Garlic beef pretty good (~4oz) and fried tofu .

Kat Fukui

Sashimi , yaki onigiri , and cocktails !

Francis Tan

Its a bit of a meh really. I guess its good enough but doesnt compare with the japanese restos in Asia

Cheryl

Everything was delicious despite the unkept condition of the restaurant . Service is slow, tables and utensils are sticky, and everything is dirty . Don't come here for a date. Manage your expectations.

Maria G.

Lunch here is not as expensive as dinner . Definitely stop by here for a delish and reasonably priced bento !

Min Lee

Really good onigiri and ochazuke

Kenny W

Sea urchin fried rice and grilled rice ball = Must try

Sean Kau

Zaru Tofu . Fresh homemade tofu .

Kat 🐱

Average grilled yellowtail , grilled chicken cartilage, sashimi and sea urchin on scallops .

Opp

Good lunch bento box combo

Yue Pan

Streamed salmon lunch special

Jeff Reine 🌧

In the Vale that is Sunny Tanto's lunch set is money

Tom McGhan

A teeny-tiny side-bowl of rice is almost $2, so check ahead of time if you're getting rice with your order. Good luck finding something on the menu that comes with rice , though.

Heyun

Okay udon and lunch specials ; liked the clam ramen although a bit too salty

Johannes

The food's amazing

Jonathan Marinaro

Go for the stone plate beef and the hamachi ! Fantastic true Japanese food !

HD Lee

Clam ramen for your lunch is my recommendation!
