Est. 2014 - family owned & operated

Try our unique omakase where our chefs will work around your restrictions to course out a mix of traditional, and non-traditional, fare. With signature dishes like our fish & chips and bluefin truffle sashimi, dressed nigiri pieces, and our off menu "special rolls" (including vegetarian options). Otherwise, order from the menu with many small-bite options, nigiri/sashimi, maki, entrees, or order the special rolls à la carte. We pride ourselves on our fish quality.

We have a full bar, which features a full selection of Japanese whisky, sake, cocktails, and more.

    First visit to try on restaurant week- they had a good menu offering. Busy Saturday night and service was good. Sushi was delicious, special rolls were tasty and creative. Good value. We found a new favorite. We will be back!

    Horrible experience. Got there at 7:45. Didn’t get my meal until 9:20. The chef was “running behind”. Horrible service. Waiters did not check up on us. Was there until 11 PM because it took forever to get my appetizer, dinner, and dessert.

    The selfish me would prefer not to post anything to be able to keep Tanoshii our family's go-to for a cozy (hide in a booth), quiet (before 6 pm) dining experience with great service (Thank you David and Michelle), but it would not be fair to not praise the Omakase experience we had recently. We loved the chef's selections, which included some of our long time favorites - fresh scallop, 'fish and chips', sashimi with buttery toro, and delicious and fresh signature rolls - but while we have always enjoyed the escolar and truffle roll, there were a couple of salmon and tuna based rolls that were also perfectly done - these were put together in a way that elegantly made the high quality fish and well selected accompaniments (e.g. foie gras, seasoned salt, selected herb) shine. It was so good. Looking forward to our next visit.

    I can’t believe I have never been here before. The reviews said the sushi was some of the best or best and I completely agree. Everything we ordered gyoza, blue fin sashimi appetizer ( superb), the ebi tempura rolls, the omakase rolls, which they are known for everything was quality and delicious. Our server was terrific, she was so personable and accommodating. Will add this to my top favorites.

    I went Christmas Eve for a solo dinner and it was delicious! My waiter was really nice and helped me pick out some great rolls! It was pretty quiet in there, I’m sure due to the holiday. Everyone who was there seemed well taken care of!
