    I don't need to write a paragraph. This is simple, the food, staff, service, atmosphere, all great.

    Fantastic sushi, and a gluten-free menu with a lot of choices Honestly, I probably would've walked by this place from the outside because it's not much to look at. However, when you go inside, it's actually quite large and elegant. The servers were very cool and attentive The sushi was great - I got a sampler platter and really enjoyed it Also, the spicy salmon was really spicy - maybe because I'm in Louisiana? Not sure. I'm just in town for the day but would definitely come back because this place was really great

    I'm a sushi lover and this was not my fav... The appetizers were the best part. We got the yellowtail jalapeño and truffle salmon sashimi. Both were so fresh and flavorful! Thick cuts. The crab salad was great too. The sushi was our leash fav part sadly. We tried the best bite (1/5), big easy (3/5) and hung lo (3/5). We really didn't like the fried sushi. If we were to come back, I would get more fresh fish sushi rolls that weren't fried. Service is also very slow. Cool place though.

    My favorite sushi spot in Lafayette! Whether you're in the mood for an elevated lunch or looking for a night out on the town with a few friends - Tsunami has you covered! (They also have a Baton Rouge location). They have an extra bar area that opens up in the evenings and this place surprises you on the inside vs the outside because it doesn't seem like much until you walk in! Every time I visit my hometown I drive over to Lafayette to get lunch at tsunami because it's just that good. The spice in their sushi just tastes different, in a good way, almost like home!! 10/10 menu - gluten free & vegetarian options are available. 10/10 service. Always. There's something about being in the heart of Cajun country & getting amazing sushi that just hits different!!

    Tsunami is one of my favorite lunch spots in the area. The truffle salmon is my favorite appetizer on the menu. The drinks are always great here as well. My go to roll is the Leon Special. Gyoza is a MUST ORDER!

    This was my first time here. This is located in downtown BR and it's the ultimate date night spot. You have to take an elevator up to the establishment. The vibes are there along with the lighting. You can also sit outside and see views of the Mississippi. I opted for the Tiny Dragon to start with. The drink was just a bit spicy which is why I ordered it. It was really good! The spice wasn't overbearing. We also had the dumplings which we ate to fast to take a picture of. Those were great. For my entree I had the Black n Gold and the lava roll. My favorite was the Black n Gold. It had the crunchies on top which helped with the texture. It was also spicy with crawfish tails. The lava roll was good as well it had salmon on top . I just wish that had more of the crunchy also. Still good nonetheless less! The service was great. They offer to pack up your leftovers. I will be back to try a few other rolls on the menu.

    Ambiance was nice, not loud. You could have a nice conversation with your party! Food was delicious! Service was good - waitress was pleasant and attentive to the table and other tables around ours. I would recommend this restaurant for a date night or family outing.

    If you're looking for fancy sushi and Japanese fusion cuisine, tsunami is your place. This hip little sushi spot in downtown Lafayette is sure to please even a sushi snob. Everything I have tried has been delicious. The sushi is fresh and creative, and appetizers are absolutely amazing. They have a huge selection of sake if you enjoy that but also a good craft beer selection. One of my favorite appetizers that I have pretty much turned into my fave entrée is the eggplant miso with shrimp. This sweet yet savory dish is eggplant cooked to shear perfection! I also appreciate that there are plenty of sushi options that don't contain that snow crab mush, that I cannot seem to escape in Acadiana. Literally every roll that most restaurants in this area make have imitation crab in it. I appreciate that Tsunami has more premium sushi recipes than most restaurants I've tried in the South. If hip & creative sushi is your thing, check them out!

    The decor and atmosphere are nice with a cool vibe. Love the bar!!! We celebrated my son's birthday here so the surprise Muchi at the end was the topping on the cake!!! Super nice and beautiful presentation with a candle! The drinks are definitely worth coming here! They're pretty to look at plus taste great! The food is good! I particularly enjoyed the shrimp and eggplant appetizer but the service was just average! I do prefer to get drinks when ordered and not have to request repeatedly but then again they were very busy!!! Yes, I recommend this place!

    Decent food quality. Unfortunately it is also noisy. If you want decent sushi, try them but it is in no way exceptional.
