Tatsu Dallas Reviews
I can't add much to what's already been said here, so I'll
I can't add much to what's already been said here, so I'll just highlight a few things: 1. Arrive early, and enjoy the lounge experience...it's tranquil and lovely (just like the main dining room, but with a bit more zhuzh). The wine menu is exquisite and quite reasonably priced for what you get. 2. I have a legitimate shellfish allergy...this is not some "I don't eat gluten" bullshit. A bite of shellfish could kill me. So, I REALLY appreciate that Tatsu accommodates shellfish allergies. I still haven't been to Shoyo and other omakase places because they won't accommodate. I get it, because a lot of food restrictions are just preferences, and that's annoying...but for those of us for whom food allergies are potentially life-threatening, it's really nice to have chefs like Tatsuya Sekiguchi who are willing to make it possible for me to experience their incredible preparations. Arigatou, Chef! 3. Yeah, I don't think I care about going to other omakase places anyway after experiencing Tatsu. I've had some "great" omakase (like Sushi Nakazawa in NYC) but have never had anything that equaled the experience of Tatsu. It was a fantastic dinner for a special occasion! You do have to just cross your fingers that you don't have anyone annoying in your group. A group at the end of the bar at one point was loudly disparaging my chosen career, obviously unaware of what I do. So, you know, that wasn't very nice, but I don't hold that against Tatsu.
THE BEST TIME IN DALLAS
100/10 !! Second time doing the party bike for my birthday and every time it has been THE MOST FUN EXPERIENCE the drivers are the absolute best vibes, Felix was perfect for our group!!! This is the literally the only and best way to celebrate your birthday in Dallas. Only thing is I wish we could go all day, we did not want to get off !!! So much fun !!!!
Hit the happy hour for food and drink.
Great deals, decent food and service. Cool spot. Need to hit up the dumplings next time.
If your #1 goal in coming to Tatsu is to get photos for
If your #1 goal in coming to Tatsu is to get photos for your social media accounts then you're probably better off going to Komodo. If your #1 goal is to experience an authentic Japanese omakase experience without the flight to Tokyo, then leave your tripod at home and get yourself to Tatsu! I've eaten at many top-rated sushi / omakase spots across the country including back when Nobu was at the top of its game with only one restaurant. The fish quality, preparation, presentation and calm, soothing atmosphere at Tatsu has risen to the top of all my past experiences. The service from the initial greeting, lounge drinks, seating, wine pairings, and low-key guidance and information during the meal was perfect. In respect to the food, craft, chef, and 9 other diners in the quiet, intimate space, once seated my phone went in my pocket. The few photos posted were prior to the meal. Yelp has enough photos of the food to give you a good idea of what you'll be getting! Currently at $185 per person before drinks, tax and service charge, plan on spending a bit for your quality meal. But it'll be less than 1/4th the price of a flight to Tokyo; Tatsuya Sekiguchi and his cast bring the Japanese fish market to you!

I also am very versed in cooking and have hosted 8 course tasting menus at my home. Although I'm no aficionado I do enjoy sushi. We booked this about 3 weeks in advance for our 8th anniversary and were very excited. On the day of our reservation I was diagnosed with strep throat. Although I was cleared by my doctor to attend I thought it would be best to reschedule. We understand when we booked the reservation our deposit was amount in full and non refundable. We weren't looking for a refund but called to see if we would be able to reschedule to a day I would be able to taste and enjoy the experience more. We were told that wouldn't be possible and we would lose our $450 deposit. Disappointed we still went to not lose our deposit. Entering the venue was quite the experience, we were promptly greeted and seated in a modern waiting area where we enjoyed a glass of wine. We had expected a cocktail menu but it was just a wine and sake list. The wine list was vast and impressive. We sat down for our meal in the dining area and the seating and atmosphere was very comfortable. They had baskets for purses and offering of water, still, bottled or sparkling. We added the classic sake pairing to our menu. The first couple of rounds were enjoyable but some of the items I could not palate. Not for my dislike of the item simply because I had strep throat. To note the person we told on the phone I had strep was also the host. One of the items I did not eat and the host noticed and asked if I would like to have alternate courses. She assumed it was because I didn't like the look of certain items, I explained I like all food and just can't quite palate much because I'm sick. She explained she knew. Well the next course comes out and I am served something different from everyone else. I understand the chef was trying to accommodate. Me looking confused she came up again and explained the chef thought I would like this more. I said please leave the menu the same it has nothing to do with my like of items simply being sick. After this the chef barely made any comments to us nor told us what we were eating but seemed to chat along with others. The extra attention was embarrassing as others kept wondering what was going on with us. Overall sickness aside. I can see this being a fun dinner for those who have a lot of knowledge about sushi. The chef did not introduce himself nor offer an explanation of any of the courses just simply repeated the one word menu item. We were hoping for more of a culinary experience and perhaps a lil education on how to best taste the fish and what to be searching for taste wise. None of that was offered. It was an odd experience we felt as if we were under a microscope the social aspect was also very awkward and dry. We normally enjoy the chatter and discussion with others but the room was silent. All in all we spent close to $750, we half wondered if it was a pop up high end scam. But if not, none of the food was amazing for either of us, nothing mind blowing and for the price that's what we were expecting. Next time we'll take that amount of money and go to a Michelin starred restaurant.

Lynn was amazing! Highly recommend the tour! We enjoyed ourselves a ton! If you are looking for something fun to do in downtown this is a must’
Dinner at Tatsu is a journey into the heart of traditional
Dinner at Tatsu is a journey into the heart of traditional Edomae Sushi, masterfully guided by the skilled hands of Executive Chef and Owner, Tatsuya Sekiguchi. Nestled in the vibrant Deep Ellum neighborhood of Dallas, Tatsu offers an intimate dining experience that stands out amidst the city's high-end Omakase options. While I personally lean more towards the modern more fusion interpretations of Omakase found at Shoyo and Sushi | Bar, the undeniable skill and exceptional quality of ingredients at Tatsu make for a compelling case of traditional over trendiness. Chef Tatsuya's expertise is evident in every bite. Having honed his craft under the legendary Sushi Chef Naomichi Yasuda, and with roots tracing back to a nearly century-old family restaurant in Japan, his creations are a testament to the legacy of Edomae Sushi. The omakase meal--a thoughtful curation of seasonal dishes, including three small appetizers (otsumami), a variety of nigiri, a temaki (hand roll), chawanmushi (egg custard), miso soup (miso shiru), warm tamago, and an understated dairy-free ice cream with balsamic vinegar for dessert--is served in an engaging 10-seat environment that encourages interaction with Chef Tatsu, offering insight into the meticulous art of his omakase preparation. Hosting guests in an intimate setting, Tatsu Dallas is not just a meal, but a cultural immersion. The dedication to Japanese hospitality and the intimate setting provide a backdrop to Chef Tatsu's culinary expertise. Whether you're a devotee of traditional sushi or a fan of its more contemporary iterations, Tatsu offers an exquisite showcase of skill, tradition, and the freshest global and local ingredients that is sure to leave a memorable impression.
Foods are very authentic, I have to say it is one of the
Foods are very authentic, I have to say it is one of the most authentic sushi place in DFW area. Shoyu is great but more towards fusion. Tatsu sushi's rice is exactly how you will taste if you travel to Japan. Ambiance was ok, service was good. However the foods qty is a bit less than what I was expected for an omakase price pieces . it should probably range from 18-20 pieces of the sushi portion instead of 14 pieces. That is the only recommendation I would probably suggested. Other than that, everything else is great! Definitely will try to buy out the whole facilities for private event
If there was a way to give Tatsu more stars, I would.
This was one of the two most perfect dining experiences I've had in my life. If you enjoy sushi and respect the art of those who make it, you must go to Tatsu. If, however, you dunk your tuna roll in soy sauce before eating it, don't go--it's definitely not for you. If I enumerated every praise-worthy thing about Tatsu, this review would be the length of a short story. There are other reviews out there that do a good job of describing how wonderful it is. It's everything they say and more. You will have an intimate dining experience, you will be able to watch Chef make each piece, and he will tell you about the fish. If you like sake, get the pairing. And be sure to try one of the special cocktails dreamed up by the talented bartender, they are delicious--there are even some very imaginative and tasty mocktails. I hope Dallas supports Tatsu, it is one of the finest restaurants we have ever had here. You will not be disappointed.
Tatsu is an absolute gem! While my partner and I waited for
Tatsu is an absolute gem! While my partner and I waited for our table, we were welcomed to seat at the bar where Crystal was crafting all the beverages. She was a delight! Super friendly and the drinks we ordered (NYC in DFW Sour, Winter Cider?, Smokey Mezcal? Unsure of the latter two names) and they were well balanced and delicious! As for the sushi, I was blown away at the quality of the fish. I can go on and on about my take on each course, but overall, outstanding tender textures throughout most of the courses. The fish spoke for themselves, so any additional toppings and flare wasn't necessary for outstanding flavor. My favorite pieces of the night are the Iwashi (Japanese sardine) and Toro (fatty tuna). Outside of the sushi, I really enjoyed the homemade dairy free ice cream. I loved the espresso balsamic vinegar! Overall, I highly recommend anyone to visit Tatsu if they're looking for an intimate, traditional omakase experience in Dallas!
This is more than a dinner.
It is an experience. Chef prepares each selection with precision. The sushi is so fresh and tender, it melts in your mouth. The bar and specifically the bartender, Crystal, is amazing. Just tell her what you usually enjoy drinking and she can craft the perfect beverage for you. The whole restaurant has a nice vibe and you can tell that a lot of thought went into the presentation. The bathrooms even have heated toilets. I highly recommend this restaurant, Chef Tatsu, and mixologist Crystal.
Must try!!!
Felix our driver was amazing! He took us to some awesome spots! I would definitely recommend trying this!
It's like a trip to Japan.
Classic traditional nigiri omakase menu and beverage pairings. The bar is amazing before and after dinner, as Crystal does a great job as their mixologist.
This review is for the kirameki bar next door to the
This review is for the kirameki bar next door to the omakase seating. I can't say enough great things about Crystal, our expert mixologist, and the wonderful and inviting environment she created along with the lovely cocktails. Usually you are not able to order nigiri from the bar, but on this night the chef was feeling some sort of holiday cheer because we got the chance to try some pieces and they were amazing! If only we knew beforehand so we wouldn't have eaten so much for 1st dinner haha. We were told the kirameki bar was a recent offering, but I hope it stays around for a while and will definitely return on a future trip to dallas.
This place is amazing! Hands down my favorite restaurant in
This place is amazing! Hands down my favorite restaurant in Dallas to date. We arrived a bit early and were able to sit down at the bar for a few drinks before dinner. The bartender did such an amazing job with our cocktails. We ended up coming back after our dinner for a night cap to discover there's an after-dinner cocktail menu. The dinner was a 10/10. The omakase dinner was well presented and amazingly delicious. Our favorites were the TKG, kawahagi, Samara and the tiger shrimp. Can't wait for another special occasion to come back!
Awesome experience!!!
Our tour guide was amazing!!!!! We loved her energy!!!!! She was one the best parts of our experience. All of the bars were great. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Cousins Day Out.
On a scale from 1 to 10 this was a 10+ Lol! It was 10 of us out on our annual cousins trip. Our driver was amazing and explained all the rules clearly before we left. You are allowed to listen to whatever music you like and of course it's also BYOB. The only time you are really asked to pedal is leaving from a stop sign or a red light but other than that, it's not needed. My family and I enjoyed this so much we are already making plans for next yr. Thanks Dallas Party Bike. 🥳 👍🏾
Jordan is the best!!
Jordan was our tour guide & she was so much fun! We had a ton of fun and loved all of the stops. What a great way to experience Dallas.

An absolute party
We had the absolute best Mother-Daughter day out on the Party Bike! I live in Deep Ellum and see it go by often, and everyone always looks like they have the best time. So I planned to make it happen for friends and family on their next visit. Booking was very easy online with a number of slots available virtually all day. We picked a Sunday afternoon. We arrived to see Felix’s (our captain) smiling face and great energy! Because it was 2 of us, we had to join another party who was celebrating a birthday. We had the best time! We stopped off at 3 clubs (Electric Shuffle, Federales and Trinity Cider) and the famous Blue Alley for a photo op! It was great because I got to visit places I never got to go to! Felix provided great recommendations for each stop and the neighborhood in general. I highly recommend this tour and plan to do it again, but at night time! I have a feeling it will be a even better experience!

Angelo is the best!! He made our trip an absolute blast!! Definitely recommend!! Request him if possible!!
Very traditional sushi omakase complete with miso soup,
Very traditional sushi omakase complete with miso soup, tamago, and tea at the end. Each sushi piece was buttery, smooth, delicious, although a few of them had just a tad too much wasabi in the beginning. The tamago at the end was decent - it's honestly hard to beat the tamago at nakazawa in NYC. Loved the uni that was so sweet. Definitely the best uni in Texas and in the US outside NYC. The kanpachi, kinmedai, spotted prawn, and shima aji were also amazing and so delicious too.
Takes some planning to get the right time for a reservation
Takes some planning to get the right time for a reservation but totally worth it. Any other restaurants with sushi of this caliber you gotta go on a plane to NYC or LA for. Very intimate setting.
Tatsu is one of the hardest reservations to get in Dallas!
Tatsu is one of the hardest reservations to get in Dallas! And for good reason. It is definitely the best omakase in Dallas. Tatsu seats 10 people and Chef Tatsu serves each person, which makes for a nice, intimate experience. We really enjoyed all of the sushi, but some of our favorites was the thinly layered shima-aji (striped jack), smoked sawara (Spanish mackerel), and anago (saltwater eel). Also I enjoyed the warm tamago (egg) at the end, since a lot of places serve it cold. For dessert we had homemade peach ice cream that was delicious. For the price of $170, there's no better omakase in Dallas and makes it much more affordable than the NYC options. The closest competition in Dallas is Shoyo and there wasn't much of a comparison since Shoyo cuts extremely thin slices. If you want to try a good and authentic omakase experience, you need to try Tatsu!
The best omakase in Dallas we've had yet.
We don't really have a lot of options for formal omakase in Dallas - sure you can order it from Uchi or Tei-an but for dedicated omakase restaurants in Dallas proper, you are really just looking at Shoyo and Tatsu, and Tatsu is so much more delicious!Compared to other omakase restaurants I have been to, Tatsu differentiates itself by having Chef Tatsu prepare all of the sushi for everyone to eat. At Nakazawa and Shoyo, they have assistants help prepare the nigiri for eaters on the far ends, but here everyone is served by Chef Tatsu which is a nice perk.We had about 20 beautiful pieces, including the impossibly thin layered shima-aji piece and warm(!!) tamago which really makes me appreciate tamago finally.We heard Chef talking about a potential tempura Omakase combo meal in the new year so may need to return to check that out!
After 4 months of failed attempts, I finally secured a
After 4 months of failed attempts, I finally secured a Sunday lunch reservation here to celebrate hub's birthday... 3 months later. This was our first sit-down sushi omakase experience and the TL;DR is, while delicious and beautiful and service perfectly executed and crafted, we did not think it was worth the effort required to make a reservation nor the $170+ price tag (we ordered additional nigiris after). Also, no difference between lunch/dinner.Some pieces were a home run - out of this world, majority were good, a couple standard. The overall experience was great and the chef talented and kind. If I had endless amount of money, I can definitely see myself frequenting here bc the chef and the staff all seemed genuine and very kind and I love to support good people. As of now, though, I'll aspire to living that life In terms of navigating, Google maps failed us bc it tried to take us through this weird private lot that turned out to belong to the Hope Lodge somehow hub found it. There's a private lot for parking. We showed up a few minutes early and waited in the beautiful waiting area that had a very deep ellum vibe before the hostess guided each group to the main seating/dining area. Their bathrooms were pristine and had warmed toilet seats
After finally managing to snag a reservation, I LOVED my
After finally managing to snag a reservation, I LOVED my experience at Tatsu. Everything I tasted was delicious, Tatsu and team were amazing, and service was impeccable. This might actually be the best omakase experience I have ever had and I can't wait to go back.

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Tatsu Dallas at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Tatsu Dallas page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
