We booked Omakaze for myself on the second floor just for me. My husband joined me at the bar but doesn't eat fish. He was able to order à la carte while I enjoyed a 9-course dinner. It was incredible. Absolutely everything was amazing. I requested not to have Uni as it would be wasted on me and they accommodated the request. The complimentary sake tasting was a home run. I had to stop at Total Wine for a bottle of it. Each piece was prepared and explained in front of us. There were other diners at the counter and we watched them prepare other orders for the house too. Some many things looked so good. I cannot wait to go back. It was definitely a great experience for a special occasion. Not a hurried event either. Sit back and relax. Enjoy the service. Multiple seatings a night but booking is recommended. We were lucky and got in last minute as there were openings. read more

Ordered push up sushi to go, staff was amazing and food was good! We dropped in from a walk and was pleasantly surprised on how nice and accommodating staff was. read more

Easily the best sushi restaurant (in terms of atmosphere) in Ann Arbor. As far as I'm aware it's the only place that does omakase. I haven't done the full omakase experience but I have had sushi multiple times and can say it's great and the ambiance is fantastic but it has its faults. The sushi deluxe which I ordered tonight was filled with redundant cheap cuts of fish. The salmon was delicious but most of it was mid white fish. It came with a salad which I really enjoyed and was packaged nicely. The workers are lovely and try hard but need to be educated more. To be clear I am blaming this on the owner/manager. They should do a crash course on sushi for everyone that works there. Regardless I would happily go back, it's really excellent sushi and the rice is perfect. read more

This review is for the omakase experience. We made a reservation in advanced for the highest tier omakase. All omakase options have a $50 per person deposit that is applied to your final bill. The food was excellent, and generous. If I were to do the omakase again, I would do the low or medium tier option, as this was a LOT of food and I left stuffed! I enjoyed every course. The fish selection was fresh, quality, and unique. The flavor combinations and detail were creative and tasty. The nigiri courses were phenomenal. The handroll with toro and uni was SO great. We watched them make it and it was really stuffed with both. Only downside was that the pacing felt super rushed. My suggestion would be to slow down just a little bit! Most of the time, we weren't finished with the course or even just the bite in front of us when the next was being placed. I would love to be able to enjoy the course in front of me and appreciate all its flavors before moving onto the next. read more

We did the 12 course omakase. Oh my gosh--AMAZING. Not inexpensive but each course was amazing. They even served a complementary sake with the sashimi and the dessert course. Service was wonderful, and I can't say enough great things about the experience! read more

Came here on a friday night and wasn't too hard to get a reservation. Our server was attentive and very knowledgeable on the menu and ingredients. The lemon slices on the sushi was a nice addition to the fresh salmon and our server mentioned the fish is flown in from Japan daily. Highly recommend the thai curry as well as it had a great depth of flavor and good portion size. read more

Beautiful and delicious food. Staff are friendly and provided lovely experience. Isaac and Joey and Jeffrey were excellent.

I came here as part of a work retreat. There were multiple appetizers ordered for the table. I saved my appetite for the main course and I'm very glad that I did. Even though everyone seemed to be very pleased with the appetizers. First of all, the staff was extremely friendly. Very kind and helpful. I tossed questions at our server about Japanese whiskey, and he was able to give me exactly the right flavor profile that I was looking for. The food was phenomenal. I ordered the Samba delight. It was a mix of shrimp, scallops, and chicken. All of it in a delicious sauce, stir fried with vegetables. Truly an explosion of flavor in my mouth. I couldn't stop eating it. The plate itself was really cool. Great ambience overall. Multiple levels of seating areas and it was overall just pleasant to be in. read more

Food was good. Service was marginal. She was new, but she kept snatching the plates of food away when we still had a little bit left on it. I think she was trying to be a very good server, but she wasn't. read more

I've gone to Tabe twice, once for omakase and once for general seating. The omakase experience was really worth it for the cost. Their fish is extremely fresh and they have a wide range of fish. The nigiri and sashimi for the omakase was served with fresh wasabi. Both times, the team has been extremely welcoming and is attentive to all the guests. The restaurant has a very modern vibe but it's also well lit inside the restaurant. The omakase is served on the second floor so it feels a little more private if you're one of the only omakase experiences during that time period. read more

Great time-- good food, great drinks, and our server, Devon, was wonderful. Sava's is our favorite place to go after a movie, to grab a drink and apps at the bar, meet friends. The bang bang shrimp-- the best! read more

Lots of courses for an omakase. The pieces were fresh and there were plenty to feel satisfied. I do wish there were less appetizer courses and more sashimi pieces. There were plenty of salad and fried food options for the start of the meal, but I would want them to be replaced by sashimi instead. The interior of the restaurant is very classy, and the drinks were also tasty and strong. It was nice to see the sushi chefs working on the pieces. read more

Okay, no. I'm sorry, but our experience here was weird. I cannot recommend the omakase. It might be fine if you come and just order random sushi and drinks, but expect to wait and pay a lot. Started off on the wrong foot when our server told us that since we booked a couple weeks ago, the omakase prices all went up by $30. That's after a $100 non-refundable deposit. So we ended up going with the lowest tier ($90) instead of the middle tier (previously $90, now $120). Glad we did, because the other folks seated at the bar with us went with higher tiers and the differences were minimal and definitely not worth another $30. It was like, a slightly different soup, one additional shrimp nigiri, and some different toppings on the nigiri. Whatever. The "sake pairing" advertised is not what you think of as a drink pairing. It was a single bottle of sake "cold or hot," we had to ask which it even was, and it was for the whole meal. No pairing with courses. The server was nice enough to notice a gnat had flown inside the bottle and gave us a replacement. (There were several gnats flying around the sushi bar). The music here is weird. It was like, disco "shake your groove thang" and Michael Jackson dance hits. Not something you'd expect in a high-end or even an Asian restaurant. It was distracting. The staff was visibly in disarray. The food was running behind. Their walkie talkies (weird?!) were audibly going off and calling for certain people to do things. This business has been open for half a year at this point iirc so, what's going on with management where things are going off the rails on a Thursday night with only maybe a quarter of the tables occupied? We were there an hour and had only been served soup and oysters. During the omakase we had: 1. Miso soup - fine. 2. Oysters two ways - the hot one was nasty, supposedly there was cheese in there but it tasted like mayonnaise and left a greasy palette. The cold one with the quail egg was very good but oddly warm. 3. Baby octopus - did not eat this, I typically like grilled octopus, but could not stomach it in this presentation (entire tiny creatures). 4. Sashimi - this sat out exposed on the bar to get warm for a good 10 minutes before being served to us. Kind of gross. Nothing special, but I liked the mackerel and scallops. It included toro, which was nice. 5. Nigiri - this was among the strongest of the courses. Several had really nice combinations of fish cuts and toppings. However the chef made sure to mention to everyone several times that it has FRESH WASABI that cost $150 a pound. He told you this until you acknowledged it and seemed impressed. Sea bream with scallion and salmon with garlic were our favorite nigiri. We had a squid and daikon one that legitimately tasted like soap... I have no idea how or why. 5. Salmon hand roll -- very good, but difficult to mess up? 6. Matcha panna cotta dessert - this may have been my favorite of all the courses. Simple and fresh, could have eaten bowls and bowls of it. I feel like the dessert shouldn't be the highlight of an omakase meal. I will not be returning to Tabe. The omakase was almost a total waste of money. The service was awkward and slow. There are other good -- better -- (and more affordable) places to get sushi. This place has a lot to work on. read more

I came here for the $90 omakase experience. The sashimi and sushi were quite tasty. The overall amount of food was good too. It came with a delicious dessert at the end. The meal came with miso soup (great), tiny fried fish (ok, oily), and oysters two ways (not a huge fan of oysters but they were fine). Personally I wouldn't mind getting rid of these three for more sushi and sashimi. Highlights- otoro, salmon, yellowtail, sea bream, squid, scallops, and the dessert! Overall the best sushi in Ann Arbor, however it is pretty pricey. They do get the fish and wasabi from Japan (we were told by the chefs). Ambiance was nice and quiet. Watching the chefs was a treat as well. Service was decent. Overall very good, but a touch expensive. For those who want to enjoy sushi beyond an Americanized roll, I would recommend it. Omakase requires a $50/person reservation fee online which is subtracted from the final bill. Reserving was easy. read more

*disclaimer: was offered free dessert in exchange for review. Was walking around with a friend looking for somewhere to eat. Saw this place (new!) and decided to stop in. LOVED it. I thought the decor was gorgeous and the food delicious. There isn't really another upscale Asian restaurant in Ann Arbor, save Slurping Turtle- and this is nicer than that. Everything was good and we enjoyed our experience. The only thing that could have been improved was speed of service- the servers all looked busy and I think we were being served by a manager. Had to flag them down for the check but we'd been sitting a long while, it's possible they didn't know when we'd be done. It was busy and as a server myself, that absolutely happens, no big. Cocktail was yummy and the offer of free dessert was a nice touch. Both desserts were wonderful. read more

We went here for a 7 course omakase dinner. Chef Lee was friendly and walked us through the experience before the meal was served. Everything was made in front of us except the soup in the first course. I think the soup was my least favorite, and i could have done without it. A couple of the courses came with sake as well, each with a different flavor profile and very refreshing. The A5 wagyu stole the show though the toro and several other cuts of sashimi and nigiri was amazing as well. They get their sushi grade fish from Japan. The dessert was panacotta, slightly more gelatinous than italian panacotta. It was good, but I prefer the Italian version. I think I would have preferred mochi they make in house, but the chef had just gotten back in town so we probably just had bad timing. Overall, the atmosphere was warm and staff was friendly and attentive. I would definitely go back! Thanks for a great dinner! read more

My friend and I went here on Thanksgiving because we were both in town and the food did not disappoint. We got the beef skewers to start and holy guacamole they were life changing: perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and perfectly portioned for two to three people. The staff was super nice and food came out really really quickly. Pretty restaurant inside and there were options for super nice meals as well. read more

Best sushi place I've been to in A2. We recommend the sushi symphony; it's great and enough food for two. The miso is also fire. We also sometimes supplement with regular rolls (pictured here) and they're great. read more

Service was not good. Forgot to come back for our main meal order, drink order after water service took forever (and it was not busy) and server disappeared. Luckily the other nearby server noticed our awkward glares for help and came to the rescue. No edamame options (garlic or spicy) which most sushi places easily will do even if not on the menu. Sushi we order was good from a size perspective but was just ok. Nothing to write home about...or yelp about. Plenty of other options out there. read more

The omakase dinning is AMAZING! The freshest sushi I have ever had! You won't leave disappointed

Went last night for the first time. There's more than one floor and the environment is nice, warm, but I only saw the first floor. Booths are spacious. I had the flank steak entree and it was really good, though the rice that came on the side wasn't my favorite. The lychee martini was great and our server was very attentive. Food came out quickly and was fresh. read more

My daughter and I decided to try this new-ish place for Christmas Eve. We were on the first floor. Very nice ambiance and comfortable seating. Staff very welcoming and friendly. The food was plated beautifully. That said, I wouldn't go back, due to the disjointed service and so-so tasting food, especially given the cost. First, I asked for clarification about one of the appetizers, since the menu was not clear about it. Our server knew very little English and it was her first day, so it was a bit challenging to ask my question. She eventually brought over another staff member, who also didn't fully understand my question. I eventually got what seemed to be a definitive answer, but when the appetizer arrived, it turned out the answer hadn't been correct. Disappointingly, two out of the three portions (meat filled) were almost pure, gristly fat and hardly any meat, so I didn't eat them. No one asked me why, and I decided to not make a fuss since we were just trying to have a nice meal out on a quiet holiday. Even though there were very few customers until much later, my order (appetizer, soup and entree) all came out before my daughter's. Our main courses looked good but tasted pretty much like the sushi and related dishes at much less expensive Japanese restaurants around town. In sum, it's not bad, but it's not worth the cost, and you have to have a lot of patience if you go. read more

Good food but poor service, discreet with up charges. Better options in Ann Arbor like pacific rim

Not a truly Omakase experience. !! This was Nothing but , sashimi, soup, desert. Very disappointing, over priced. Will not go back. As you will see if you try it. read more

I took my son and his partner here tonight for a much needed quiet and nice dinner to catch up. The food was very good. It wasn't the level of Asian food you would find in a big city, but it was certainly yummy! Best in Ann Arbor in my opinion. The service and ambiance can't be beat!! And our server Isaac was fantastic!!! Don't miss it and if you are in Ann Arbor, please go! read more

Delicious, I enjoyed every part. The spice tuna role is a must. Vibe inside is warm and inviting, I will definitely be back.

Came for lunch and had just amazing food. The avocado salad was divine. Got a vegetarian roll and rainbow rolls. Miso soup was delicious. We asked them to make tempura without the shrimp and it was fantastic. As a vegetarian, I had plenty of choices. Prices were extremely reasonable for the quality of the food, and it was really high quality. Like eating in NYC at a fancy restaurant. Will ABSOLUTELY come back and send my friends. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. read more

I tried to send a private note to the restaurant but their "Contact Us" link responds with "Failed to send message. Please try again later" so I'm adding my note here: Hello, I wanted to share my experience at your restaurant April 8, 2025. I made a reservation for six people on the first floor. When I checked in two of us were seated on the second floor despite my mentioning that my reservation was on the first floor. We sat upstairs and the rest of our party did not join. About 6:15 pm a woman came up and said the rest of our part was seated downstairs. When they arrived, they had been told I had not checked in. Secondly, the waiter did not appear to be well-informed. He did not know about the wine list or food allergies. Lastly, two of party ordered the same dish. One was brought it with the rest of the orders. The other arrived half-way through our meal. What we found particularly surprising was the waiter did not seem empowered to offer that meal free or similiar - or approach the manager about doing so. While to food was good, the service was severely lacking. It feels more like a training, as opposed to competence, issue. A different group of friends also dined at Tabe and had the same experience. We all hope you are able to get the kinks out and best of luck! Alyson read more

Food was well prepared, fresh, and tasty. Ambiance is modern but comfortable. Staff seemed professional but overworked and lacking precision. Our appetizers and salads came quickly but the main entrees were significantly delayed. Server apologized but said there was a large party upstairs. Staff did not offer anything to address our displeasure during the wait. read more

Always a great experience--fresh, flavorful sushi, excellent service, and a cozy, inviting atmosphere that keeps us coming back.

While Tabe is lovely and the servers are polite, the service was a bit laggardly. I'm always mystified when the first round of cocktails is done, and the main dish arrives, and you have to hunt down your server to place another drink order. The cuisine is tasty, particularly the avocado salad. I found that the three 1 1/2" long pieces of squid scallion were very flavorful, but underwhelming at $18. Pad thai and short ribs were nice. I may have been hoping for more, but I felt that the cuisine was comparable to the other fusion restaurants in town. Maybe there are too many such establishments? read more

I went to tabe impulsively walking around Ann Arbor visiting I walked in and it was beautiful!! Our server was Ty, he was amazing he was very attentive and kind and helped us with any questions we had. It's a new business and I believe it will thrive !

We had a great time here at Tabe, our server Mason took good care of us. We've been looking for a sushi spot in Ann Arbor for a while, and at Tabe the sushi was very fresh and they had a creative menu.

What an amazing restaurant!! It's a nice addition to downtown Ann Arbor. The Thai Curry Chicken & Shrimp was very tasty! We will be back!
