What a great spot for reasonably priced japanese food! The location is great, super close to our…read morenew house! The employees are super friendly and the food is delicious for a reasonable price. The all you can eat menu is insane. It's literally all you can eat sushi, ramen, AND shabu shabu for $25. It's a great option if you have a large group or are celebrating something special. Just be sure to give yourself plenty of time to enjoy the experience! My only gripe is that they are pretty pushy about their all you can eat menu. Honestly, most of the time I'm just looking for a quick bite, I'm not interested in sitting down for hours to do an all you can eat experience. Literally every single time we come in, they don't even offer the ala carte menu, they only give you the all you can eat menu. You have to request the ala carte menu. The all you can eat menu is great if you're with a big group or are looking to hang out for hours. Since it's walking distance to our house, most of the time, me and my boyfriend are looking for a quick and easy sushi spot. We tried the all you can eat menu once and we got so distracted with all the extras that we hardly got around to eating our sushi - the whole reason we went out in the first place. The biggest downside to all you can eat is that you cannot take home any leftovers. They're very strict on that. Even if you're the only ones left at 9pm and no one is looking and it can be your own little secret. No take home containers at all for the all you can eat menu. So definitely don't order it if you're not starving! For us, we end up over eating for the all you can eat menu for a similar price than what you spend ala carte. The nice thing about ala carte? You can take the leftovers home so there's no pressure to over-do it.

It has been about a decade since the last time I went to Takashi, not because it wasn't good, it…read morewas more because it was inconvenient to wait for a table when there's so many new ones popping up in the valley in the last 10 years. I was amazed by how bustling it was during lunch on a week day, even more impressed by how many office people showed up. I would say it was a good experience but not a personable experience. We got our table, we got our food, we paid the bills. No one would check if there were any special occasions or if the food was okay. Now that I think about it, people who showed up was not for an intimate laid back meal, it was for efficiency. Our large sashini combo was great. The mackerel and tuna tasted fresh, jello-like and octopus was different. The atlantic salmon was ok, not the best I've had, and same for the albacore tuna. Toro and uni nigiri were delicious. Agedashi tofu was average. I prefer lighter batter, but the broth was great. Overall, I would come back for the mackerel/ tuna sashimi and those toro uni nigiris.

Takashi is an upscale Japanese restaurant located in downtown. It looks highly rated so we decided…read moreto give it a try. Came here on a Tuesday evening for dinner. It was pretty busy, but we were greeted by the hostess and seated immediately. Street parking was easy to find. We ordered the Edamame, Saikyo-Miso Sablefish, Ankimo Sashimi, Small Sashimi Combination, and The Uptown Roll. The Edamame were nicely salted, served warm, and came in a standard portion. The Sablefish was served with pickled carrots and onions. It was moist and tender with good flavor. This was my first time having Ankimo Sashimi, so I was not sure what to expect, but it was solid. It came with three slices along with shredded carrots and cucumber slices. The Small Sashimi Combination came with Tuna, Albacore Tuna, Mackerel, Octopus, and Salmon. All of the items were high quality. The Salmon was especially smooth and buttery. The Uptown Roll was a solid roll, but was smaller than expected. Overall, giving Takashi a 4/5. Service is fast, especially for how busy it was. The staff are friendly, and the food is good, although not the best value. The Small Sashimi Combination was our favorite item we ordered. Would recommend to others to try.

This place is not what it used to be. Our food came out much slower than the two parties that were…read moreseated after us -- and each party had more people than just the two of us, so there was really no reason why that should've happened. The miso soup literally tasted like water -- basically you get charged $3.99 for a small bowl of water. The rolls were bad, falling apart, and tiny. This place used to be so great, and now it's just a bad vibe. For how much we paid (~$125 including tip for two people), you can get MUCH better quality sushi than this. Don't come here and waste your money.

My first time at this Union Park location. Tsunami has never disappointed me. They are consistent…read morein food quality across their locally owned Utah locations. Came in for dinner with a party of four and had a great experience overall. We ordered the crispy fried calamari, pork gyozas, and five rolls: the Tsunami, the Spicy Masa, the Vegas, the Jenny, and the Cobacabana. My favorite by a good margin was the Spicy Masa. The habanero sauce is spicy-delicious, with real heat but enough flavor that you keep going back for another bite. The Vegas and Tsunami rolls are crowd-pleasers, and the pork gyozas are a solid starter to share. Service was friendly and attentive throughout the meal, no complaints there. The atmosphere is where I'd push them to level up. The decor is simple and modern, which is fine, but it doesn't create much of a mood, and the dining room gets loud fast. If you're hoping for a quiet, intimate dinner, this probably isn't the spot. For a casual night out with friends or family, though, the energy works. One tip: get a reservation, especially on weekends. Walk-ins can be rough. We skipped drinks and dessert and still landed at around $165, so it's not a cheap night out, but the quality justified the price.

**Update: Management called within an hour of this review posting and apologized, took…read moreresponsibility, and said they would be talking to their staff and would be doing additional training. I appreciated them taking the time to hear me out. They comped the two hand-rolls - taking them off my bill and said he was surprised that had not happened. He also gave me a $15 credit on my diner account for future use to give them another shot. I do have to say the nigiri was great and the pieces of fish were huge! **************** Original Post: Hmm, it had been awhile since I had Tsunami. I wanted lunch sushi. They are open. The whole vibe was weird. First there was a big friendly welcome to the sushi bar "Hey! Ask questions! This is the best seat in the house!" Then, I asked what the hand roll of the day was, and none of the 5 people behind the sushi bar even looked up. When our server stopped by I asked her. She answered the question. The friendly guy who welcomed us to the sushi bar never returned. There were a handful of young chefs in training. A trainee admitted they were trying to make our sushi but said the real chef would probably return and re-do it. This wasn't said to us, it was said to other trainees, but I know what I ordered. Sure enough when the chef came back he looked at her work, she stepped aside and he went to work at the same spot. Eventually it was served to us and he asked how long we had been waiting and apologized for the wait. Where had he gone anyway? We also ordered the sushi roll of the day. It had three slices of jalapeños and those were SO HOT they were almost inedible. I love spicy food. This was crazy! It was a poke hand roll. When the jalapeño slices were removed, it was still atomic. We had also ordered a spicy yellow tail hand roll that was so bland that I asked if they had forgotten to make it spicy, or if we had forgotten to order the spicy one. Nope. So I put the jalapeños in the "spicy" hamachi hand roll because it just tasted like fish and mayo - yuck. I asked what was supposed to be in it. They told me. I told the sushi chef that there were no sprouts, no spicy mayo, just white mayo and chopped fish. He just looked at me. I asked if he was here when it was made. He said no. No one comped it. No one cared. It was super weird. I thought he might make a new one and make it better. Nope. No one asked how our meal was. We paid $110. The server watched to see which button I pushed for her tip. Awkward. We left. We got in the car and my 26 year-old said, "We should've gone to Sonic." I started laughing and said, "that absolutely sums it up!"

She was so kind and apologetic and I felt so bad she had no help! She also had to once again apologize when I asked for a knife and she had to inform me there were, in fact, no knives on the premises. I was in shock- a restaurant with NO KNIVES? This was honestly the most bizarre thing I have ever heard. The food was fantastic though, but not sure if it's worth going back if it's BYOK (bring your own knife) and if they can't figure out how to staff their restaurant!
