Absolutely the best authentic Japanese restaurant in Tacoma. Recently lived in Japan for a few years and it is the same...yup, that authentic!! Sushi Tama was my Japanese mom's favorite so that is good enough for me! The fish is ALWAYS fresh and the presentation is just like Japan; beautiful, even when it is takeout.
I live overseas now but every time I visit Tacoma I have a few meals there but always on the last day of my visit I have a meal at Sushi Tama in honor of my mom who passed away 21 years ago. If you want authentic Japanese food made right, eat at Sushi Tama and tell them you are there because of my mom Kinuko Abe Montague. Itadakimasu (いただきます🔥)
Best quality raw sushi in the county. Place is awesome! Great chefs. My favorite server left about 2 years ago but the is place will always have my heart and soul.
Used to go in on my day off and chill for a cop hole hours ordering nigiri, watching Netflix on my phone and talking with the chefs. Literally my favorite place on earth, moved away or I’d be there again.
It was easy to park. The squid,plum shiso roll is excellent. Chirashi: the rice and egg are perfect. But the different kinds of fish are not the freshest. Miso soup and salad dressing was good. Service too.
Will try some other items.
The food was amazing! We went with a friend who is from Japan. They said the food is on par with what you would typically find in Japan. The selection is great and I can’t wait to go back.
Excellent and very friendly service. The sushi was fresh and well crafted. Their udon noodles bowl was tasty and very hot. The meat was tender, noodles perfect texture, smooth broth, and crispy tempura. Good seasoning. A small informal environment worth going back to.
Sushi Tama is our go to sushi joint! It’s consistently delicious and the best sushi we’ve had in Tacoma! Thanks for all the delicious rolls
