    Quality ingredients and refined presentation, but ultimately not worth the price. The portions were far too small and I left hungry, which is unacceptable given the cost. Omakase should still feel like a complete meal, and this did not. Overall, it felt overpriced for what was delivered. I wouldn’t recommend it based on value.

    Fantastic experience with the Tsuzumi Lunch Omakase. The portion was just right — satisfying without feeling too heavy. Service was welcoming throughout the whole meal. Absolutely loved the chef’s creative sushi combinations, especially the scampi topped with dry fish egg. Super fresh, sweet, bouncy texture with an amazing umami kick. Definitely a place I’ll come back to again!

    I personal feel the flavor is not worth the taste. The first 3 courses are very ordinary. I don't recommend people come to try omakase at this restaurant. Other than the taste, the service and decoration are good. Hope the chef can improve the courses.
