    Ya'll. This is hands down some, if not, THE best sushi I've ever had. All the ingredients were fresh, well crafted, and I was truly taken aback by how every bite... I wanted more and thought it was better than the last. Chef Tatsu is quite exceptional at his craft. He was very friendly and explained a lot to us. I personally had many a Michelin, but this may top my list. The service was top notch, and I genuinely cannot wait to return.

    MIchelin Star aside, Tatsu is really the BEST sushi place DFW has to offer. There is no where else that does traditional sushi like Tatsu. Additionally this is also the BEST omakase in DFW as well. Being an omakase might turn some people off since they don't get to choose what they eat so I would only recommend Tatsu if the person truly loves sushi. Chef Tatsu will use some fish that might not cater to casual's preferences. I have actually witnessed multiple people not want the Uni (sea urchin) piece... Chef Tatsu is very meticulous in his craft. Every ingredient you eat during the meal has been chosen carefully: the rice, the seaweed, the vinegar, and even the water the rice was cooked in. It all comes together for one of the best sushi meals you will ever have. Also, Tatsu has the absolute BEST Unagi (freshwater eel) piece you will find ANYWHERE. It's very different than what you're expecting from Unagi. If you TRULY love sushi, GO TO TATSU!

    This was my first experience at a Michelin star restaurant and I can say, the experience was phenomenal. We arrived about 20-30 minutes before our reservation and were seated in such an elegant lounge, the ambiance and music was great. During our wait we were able to browse and order from the drink menu. On the menu one of the nigori sake selections sounded great so we ordered a bottle. We were seated promptly at 5:30, when our reservation was set and thus began dinner. The sushi experience was one you have to experience in person, you're seated directly in front of chef tatsu while he prepares and serves each course. We had somewhere between 15-20 course throughout the 2 hours that we were seated. Each dish was amazing and the menu was thoughtfully prepared. My personal favorite piece was either the scallop or the fatty tuna. Both were extremely delicious. I booked a reservation for my birthday and can safely say it was very much worth it.

    Michelin quality and service all the way. I did the ahort omakase and there was hardly anything short about it, the mocktail was better than most cocktails iv had. Every course was immaculate and i ofcourse added a few a la carte items. The chef was great to watch and i enjoyed the entire ex

    First time coming to a Michelin star and i can see why the hype. The menu was special for the day and the service was impeccable. They know everyone's name coming in and have an extensive knowledge of the menu. Each piece of sushi from the appetizer to the dessert had a different taste and the chef explained what type of fish it was. Even the sushi made of scallions, seaweed and rice was delicious. The whiskey paired well and left me needing to go to the liquor store to buy some. They only allow 10 people at a time to ensure a special experience and the chef will answer any question you have gladly and with a smile. Definitely a great experience and i left full as well.

    I set an alarm/reminder like someone else suggested to make sure we got our reservations in, otherwise you have to remember when booking will be open to the public. Ambiance is excellent and the hospitality here is amazing. The chef takes his time explaining everything that's on the menu. Don't forget to get your menu signed!

    As a world traveler with the intentions of trying Michelin's where ever I can, gravitating towards many Omasake experiences especially in LA and Japan, Tatsu falls short to me, does not weigh up to what my past experiences with Michelin's have been , we had the premium omakase with premium sake pairing, with some add on's, overall for the price it wasn't justifiable, there were a few stand out pieces of fish but all in all not unique. Service was only sub par, with one of the staffs commenting on me leaving out a little rice from 2 of my nigiri's about not being wasteful, I was appalled that she'd call me out, I mean the meal is pre paid for (isn't it up to me if i'm full enough to finish dishes or not?), and side note I'm that person in my friend group who's always taking everyone's leftovers, to ensure no food is wasted, so being wasteful is definitely never my intent, unprofessional and a bit rude, overall non engaging staffs and not very warm vibes, including the chefs. To end the meal, the homemade ice cream was boring and bland, no bonus dishes or chocolates as i'm used to receiving from other Michelin restaurants, apologize if i'm starting to nit pick but just can't understand the hype, save your money here because there's many other gems in Dallas that's way better value.

    It's a very elegant restaurant and you felt very welcomed and special when entering. There was a small wait, but we all entered the dining room together. The. Chef and sou chef were very polite and knew exactly what they were doing. There were about fifteen different items to try and they were all very unique with there own textures and flavors. Even the green tea and ice cream with balsamic vinegar were different but really good. We all enjoyed our meal and noone felt bad at how overly expensive it was.

    I was lucky to have booked my reservation a few days before the Michelin star was awarded to Tatsu! Eric R.'s mom suggested he and I go tonight since we would be enjoying Thanksgiving with her and his dad tomorrow, and they did not have the desire to partake in omakase with us. She did not have to do much convincing! I booked the second seating at 7:45 PM since Eric R. is not an early eater and the first one is at 5:30 PM. I took Pilates and he did a two hour bike ride in anticipation for this meal. Upon arrival, we were seating in the front area and given drink menus. We started with a carafe of the Miyashita "Sacred Mist" Honjozo nigiri which was described as creamy, unfiltered, with tropical fruits, and puffed rice. It was very smooth. Then we were seated in the middle of the 10-top sushi bar. To my left were a party of three, a couple who lives in Dallas on the fourth visit to Tatsu, and their friend hailing also from Kansas (under an hour from where we live)! To our right was a couple who just had twins and were celebrating the wife's birthday and first sushi and alcohol since before her pregnancy. Throughout the meal, we ordered different drinks. I had the special uji no sata cold brewed sencha tea twice, and the yuzu spritz mocktail. Eric R. had a sapporo and hot sencha tea. The meal started with appetizers: Yasai (seasonal vegetables) Katsuo Kimijoyi: cubed bonito, poke style Kamasu Shioyaki: grilled barracuda with fresh sudachi Next was our sushi course: Makajiki (Marlin) - my first time trying marlin sushi! Aji Hotate Kue (grouper with shiso) Bluefin Akami (so tasty even when lean) Kinmedai - love golden eye snapper! Sawara - mackerel smoked in front of us, so delicate! Bluefin toro - fatty deliciousness Menegi - scallion sprouts in nigiri form! I love scallions and microgreens so this was pretty fun, kind of had a garlic chive flavor Kuruma Ebi - tiger shrimp, served warm Shima Aji - striped jack thinly sliced and layered four times over the rice Uni Toro Temaki Unagi At this point we were offered an a la carte menu and each ordered one piece of ora king salmon. We were served red miso soup along with a kanpyo (gourd) maki and a sweet slice of tamago. For dessert, we were given house made nondairy vanilla ice cream topped with sweet potato "mont blanc" style, and given a cup of hot hojicha tea. It was a very fun meal and we sat next to great people. The chefs told us about each item we we served throughout the meal. I am really glad we had this experience. The quality is fantastic and the ambiance is nice. I also recommend checking out the bathrooms, which have a beautiful koi pond theme and the wonderful Toto toilets with warm seats. Itadakimasu!

    Went back for Yoji's short omakase during his first week and had a great experience! We ended up ordering a couple more pieces since it was the shorter omakase than Tatsu's. Great job, Chef Yoji!

    Wow. My first visit to Tatsu last night left me satisfied with a slight bit of questioning. The quality of the food was top level - Chef Tatsuya Sekiguchi selects high quality products, and then shows off impeccable knife skills as he slices perfect cuts right in front of our amazed eyes. Yet I have questions I'll discuss below AMBIANCE 3/5 I enjoyed the entrance with the juxtaposition of an old wooden door next to the clean modern Japanese styled Tatsu door, then the inviting foyer where we waited for our seating. However, the actual dining area was clinical with high wood walls that look like cheap lamination with no appeal at all and diners are in a long line so there was not a communal feel. Other area small seating sushi dining experiences of 8-10 customers have felt more intimate and like a shared experience with occasional discussions between guests that led to my increased enjoyment of the evening so I've seen what it COULD be and that's why I missed it here. With more care to the layout this dining area has potential to be minimalistic yet appealing rather than stark and bright. The placing was very nice with great chopsticks carefully wrapped in a minimalistic Tatsu logo, a wooden spoon, and a folded napkin on a wooden tray. Chef Tatsuya Sekiguchi greeted us with a terse (almost grim) expression. FOOD QUALITY 5/5 The food (and Chef Tatsuya's knife skills) are the star of the show, hands down. The appetizers were fantastic - first dish, the asparagus was brilliantly cooked - tender yet firm enough to stand up, nice portion of fish with the jelly - just delicious. Then thin sliced sea bream followed by a perfect red fish seared on top to create a crunch and when paired with lime just sang in my mouth - thoroughly enjoyed the beginning 3 items before moving to the nigiri sushi. Sushi selections were great - every morsel was well selected and executed. My standout was the Nodoguro TKG - sea bass in a cup with a quail egg over rice. Macerate and eat - absolutely incredible. Every time a new sushi was given to us, we had another high point of happiness. There were items I'd never had before as well like Kue (long tooth grouper) and Karuma Ebi (Japanese tiger prawn). Just watching Chef Tatsuya's knife skills was awe inspiring. FOOD PREPARATION 4/5 You'll see very little accoutrements in the photos - if you scan all the photos ever taken at Tatsu, you'll notice uniformity - a little rice, a piece of fish and repeat. I've been internally debating if this is something I desire or not since last night's dinner. I know I loved the careful preparation with complimenting items at Yellowtail and Sushi Dallas, though, so the debate continues. Some would call the minimalistic approach "boring", but each bite was delicious - obvious care went into choosing the ingredients, cutting down the tuna, preparing the bites with Chef Tatsuya's own rice blend, marinades, and hand packing our tasty morsels. It definitely let the fish shine more but also missed opportunities to showcase pairing knowledge and ingenuity. I know for a fact that seeing a chef play with the preparation has been a huge highlight for me in past sushi experiences so it felt like a void to me, even though the food was fantastic. I just wanted a bit more personally. This is a personal taste so make your own opinion. SERVICE 5/5 The service was impeccable. Servers anticipated our movements, filled cups quickly when empty, and folded napkins if you got up. They kept our bottle of sake out of sight and if a cup was emptied it was refilled very quickly. OVERALL I would go back to Tatsu just to experience Chef Tatsuya's skill absolutely. But only once in awhile - I have a short list of sushi restaurants that deliver on other points I've made above that would be in my regular rotation - just as expensive, btw. There are some great choices in DFW and I'm thinking of 3 in particular that will get my normal business because I like unique preparations and pairing, ambiance and shared experiences. So YES to Tatsu and YES to eating in DFW

    Ask the Community - Tatsu Dallas

    Are sake and wine included in the omakase price?

    No everything is a la carte. Drinks

    How much is the omakase experience?

    The base fee is $170, but with tax and included gratuity, it comes out to be be a little over $200, like $210 or $218 or something like that.

    Are you guys kids-friendly? Are there kids menu and highchair availalble?

    I wouldn't recommend bringing a child

I checked in at 7:35 for my 7:45 reservation, we weren't seated until 8:10. The hostess was apologetic about the wait.

Loved that the chefs explained every dish and gave us the origin of the fish. My favorite was the Kanpachi, but everything was delicious and tasted fresh. I had a yummy mocktail and our "spirit guide" let me try a non alcoholic champagne which I loved. After dinner we were led into Ginger's which is a speakeasy next door that I've been to a few times. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The only thing I would change is the number of seats. I felt cramped.

Yokohoma roll had less flavor than the ninja but it felt fresher! its perfect for when u want fish but not too much flavor 4. Washing roll was surprisingly so good!! everything ive had so far has been FANTASTIC but i normally hate krab. they mixed it in a way that made is actually really yummy?! almost bbqy but idk how to describe it 5. eel avocado roll might be my favorite? it had a LOT of flavor. ill be honest it didnt taste much like EEL but more like whatever sauce they put on it. it wasnt sweet at all which is nice considering eel usually is be warned anything you dont finish will be chard a la carte so make SURE u dont order as much as me because i couldnt finish what i ordered The place itself is cold (which is a big plus for me when im eating) and looks like a family spot. idk how to describe it but you can just tell its a couple familys go to sushi place. theres tons of parking outside too! They also have a spot for you to sit on the sushi bar to watch the chefs cook! it was really cool and i even saw a couple people request to be sat there Everyone was so sweet and attentive i loved it :)

Would have loved a bit livelier or poppier but otherwise great experience! My friend and I are in town for a day and came for omakase dinner. Reviews were great and they definitely lived up. We happened to come on a Thursday night when they do a live tuna cutting. Everything is most definitely fresh here!

    I just recently moved to Dallas & I was recommended Namo a few times so I decided to go on a solo…read moredate out. My husband was out of town for a work trip so I thought why not ! I didn't have a reservation & I was hoping I can slide into a seat at the sushi bar. When I arrived I was greeted by Vivian, she was so sweet & welcoming. I instantly knew by her hospitality that if she wasn't able to seat me, I would come back. She was able to get me on a short wait until a seat opened at the sushi bar. I was more than happy to wait, I was offered a beverage while I waited but opted for just water tonight. The manager Alexander came back to see if I needed anything while I waited for my seat. I was seated at the sushi bar & greeted by my server. Her name was Sayaka. She has such a warm smile & energy about her. She explained the menu since it was my first time. Then I proceeded to order, I ordered a handful of nigiri's. My sushi chef was Joseph! He was so friendly, knowledgeable and made other great suggestions aside from what I ordered. Thank you chef Joseph for using his expertise to absolutely WOW ME @ the quality of the fish. The simplicity of what quality of fish & experience will make you feel. From beginning to end, my dining experience was exceptional. I am quite particular when it comes to sushi, but this exceeded my expectations. I'll be back again to visit Namo!

    FOOD INSTAGRAM: @northtx.gemz ****…read more WHAT THEY'RE KNOWN FOR: one of the freshest and best sushi in Dallas you can get! THE VIBE: not really a vibe tbh it was lowkey awkward lol but it's super small. The have a good patio but it was too hot. PRICE: ~$75 for two people WOULD I COME BACK? Yes! **** Overall Rating: 9.5/10 - This is probably my favorite sushi spot ever that is up there with Uchi. The fresh was extremely fresh and so buttery it literally melted in your mouth. I definitely wanna come back for their omakase experience which wasn't too pricey compared to other omakase in Dallas. - Only thing is I don't think I was a fan of the asparagus in the roll but that's a preference. I only docked 0.5 points because it was so awkward inside LOL. The service was nice I think it's just how tight and small it is inside. - I heard good things about their to-go so I might do that or the omakase next time!
