    If you're in the area looking for a great Japanese lunch or dinner, look no further!!…read moreAuthentic Japanese food served by family owned/operated. I can't wait to come back!!

    This place has good raamen! In fact, it's the only place in Noord-Holland (since it's just outside…read moreof Amstelveen, in Uithoorn) where they have good raamen! The first time I went here the miso broth was on the salty side. Last time it was perfect. The noodles are traditional Japanese raamen noodles, the broth is based on chicken and not pork, they have both shoyu and miso broths and they even offer a lunch menu deal with a slightly smaller sized bowl of raamen with cha shu (roasted pork) and a side of rice, some pork gyoza and a small salad. All that for €12 (check the pictures). This place is NOT operated by Chinese people like nearly all Japanese restaurants in Amsterdam! No, this place is operated by Japanese people who actually know what they're doing. They are open from 12-2 PM for lunch and I've only been here for lunch and not yet for dinner so I cannot say much about that. It's not a huge place but it's always filled with actually Japanese people and the occasional Korean people. This should mean a lot because it indicates that Japanese people approve of this place! I recently decided to not eat pork anymore, so finding the right raamen last time proved a bit lacking in choice. There seemed to be two raamen that didn't have pork but the one I ordered deceived me! I ordered the raamen called "spicy leek" (€11). No mention of pork or any other protein but the fact that all broth is based on chicken. It didn't come with a few slices of roasted pork. Instead it came with small chunks of lean roasted pork sprinkled all over my bowl. Not a problem since I don't refrain from eating pork based on religious reasons so my food was not "tainted" in my eyes. I just removed the pork, gave it to my happy carnivorous friend and everyone was happy again! Just good to know for all ya'll health conscious people who want to eat here. Tell them "no pork", beforehand. If I don't feel like traveling all the way to Dusseldorf for a decent bowl of raamen, I'll just come here again next time! Definitely good raamen and only 15-20 minutes away from Amsterdam by motorbike/car.

    I don't usually start reviews whilst still sitting in the restaurant, but Tanuki deserves this kind…read moreof attention. I've been in Amsterdam for 6 weeks now and I haven't had any Asian food (I've had KBBQ, Sichuan, pho, Indonesian, "asian", and boba LOL) that's made me say "wow!" This is the first place that I can say is as good as what I'm used to in Los Angeles. I had the tekka-don, which is marinated sashimi tuna over rice -- the fish was fresh and the rice was the correct temperature. There was a light, sweet soy coating the whole thing. 4/5 stars. I also ordered some yakitori -- the chicken leg meat with spring onions was nothing short of relevatory. The pork belly yakitori I ordered was pretty amazing too. The place is difficult to find -- it's tucked into a hidden corner of the mall but it's worth searching for.

    Tanuki has undergone a major renovation recently - the old Tanuki has moved to Gelderlandplein and…read morethe Tanuki here is more a Asian BBQ restaurant. There are grills at the tables and you cook your own food. I recommend you visit the other Tanuki, as this one was a disappointment. Food: 2/5 I'm pretty sensitive to salt but even the other people I ate with found the meat to be too salty. Rumor has it that restaurants with not so fresh meat salt their food heavily to preserve it for longer... We had various types of chicken and pork, and most of it was mediocre. The pork neck was very tasty but it was the only one out of 7 meats. Service: 3/5 The waitstaff was very polite and attentive. Atmosphere: 4/5 They did a really good job with the renovation, the restaurant is beautiful. It is a nice mixture of modern and traditional Japanese decor. They even have those adorable booths where you need to take your shoes off. However, you can't eat atmosphere. Value: 2/5 Each 100g of meat was about 5 euros, which adds up... in the end, we decided to finish what we ordered and then finish our meal at McDonalds.

    Completely disappointed by the service and food here. The worst food I have ever tried in a…read morerestaurant. I don't intend on coming back. The restaurant looks lovely and authentic but the food is far from it. The standards of the food and service was below par. We ordered food and got it 30-40 minutes late. There was only 1 couple in the restaurant and we got there first, so it was not like they were occupied with other tables. I would hate to imagine if the restaurant was full,​ ​then we would have got the food a few hours later. To make matters worse​ the food tasted awful. The vegetables and eel was​ burned​ to the crisp and rice was very hard. I am​ accustomed​ to eating at a lot of Japanese restaurants and Asian​ restaurants and Nagoya drop the ball on the food and service here. The food and service was so bad that I felt we basically through away our money. You might as well hit up Sumo or Alberheign, at least the food will be reasonably​ acceptable.

    A decent place but be prepared to wait a long time for your food. This is another all you can eat…read moreconcept but has a bit of a twist. You sit at a habachi table and that is included in the meal! The food from the grill was really pretty great and it was fun to watch the guys cook as well. They also had fresh made sushi (each round took forever) but it was work it when it finally came. The sushi selection is a bit limited in comparison to places like Sumo but still decent. There are five rounds and each person gets to pick 5 things from the menu per round. If you have a whole evening to spend, give it a try.
