Always the best! fresh and Yummy! the best sushi in Fairfax! Always greeted with a smile! read more

Trying another neighborhood spot that we always pass by. They have a decent size menu with lots of Japanese classics like sushi, curry and various noodle dishes. We started with one of their signature rolls that had a good amount of decent quality fish. The curry was also slight different than other places as it was not as thick and even had mushrooms. This made for a much milder curry flavor. Not bad, but definitely different. The soba was probably my favorite thing! The noodles had nice chewy texture and served with a refreshing dipping sauce and tempura to chase each bite. Not the best Japanese food I've had, but a decent neighborhood spot.

5 stars: this is a repeat spot TL;DR: consistent quality/timing every time we go. Great variety of options and good value. We have been here several times now and have always left very satisfied. The service is nice and fast. Is it the best quality sushi I have ever had? No. But it is solid, meets my expectations for this area, and is the same every visit. FOOD: All the sushi/sashimi combos give a great variety of fish and generous portions. ~Sashimi regular (5/5) ~Sashimi "omaskase" (5/5) - not really omakase, just a chef's choice of assortment ~Sushi "omaskase" (4.5/5) - same as above - docked some points as it comes with a cali roll ~Lion king roll (4.5/5) ~Kenny roll (4.5/5) ~Tsunami roll (4.5/5) ~Spicy samurai roll (3/5) ~Crazy roll (4.5/5) ~Soft shell crab tempura (3.5/5): Just okay ~Mussels (3.8/5): more korean style/gochujang flavor ~Calamari (3.5/5): uses a different type of squid than I was expecting from typical calamari This has been our go-to sushi place lately if we know what we're getting and don't want to be disappointed. read more

Food was excellent! Ordered miso ramen, alaskan roll, spicy tuna roll and a few pieces of nigiri and it was all delicious! great service! fast and friendly. read more

Ordered dinner from here on Uber eats on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. I felt like the pricing was pretty fair and I really like how they packaged the sushi for delivery. The hot soup was packaged separately so it didn't affect the actual sushi. I'm not one that usually loves loaded rolls, but these were honestly so good. read more

Really enjoyed this place for sushi! The rolls were fun and playful--lots of variety without feeling gimmicky--and they had a nice balance of flavors so nothing felt too heavy. The sashimi was impressively fresh, with a clean taste and good texture that makes you feel like they take care with their fish. Portion sizes were fair, and everything came out plated in a way that looked appetizing without being overly fussy. Service was friendly and the vibe of the restaurant felt casual but still nice enough for a dinner date or small group outing. Overall, a solid spot when you're craving sushi--fresh fish, creative rolls, and a good value for what you get. I'd definitely come back to try a few more of their specialty rolls! read more

The restaurant had a great vibe to it, especially for a random Tuesday night. Everyone was so nice. We liked the fried octopus which were like croquettes with octopus in them. The sushi rolls were also great read more

What a wonderful place. My son and I stopped in for lunch and greeted warmly and seated quickly. The shrimp tempura was delicious. We had four different rolls of sushi. The smoked cream cheese was fantastic and the salmon and tuna were fresh. read more

So the sushi was good. The Godzilla roll is a 4.5Wish it had more eel on in..New volcano roll was really good..give it a 4.5..Dynamite roll was good but not a favorite for me. Give it a 4. Now to the Shrimp Yakisoba..I was HIGHLY disappointed..It was more onions than anything!! They skimped out on the shrimp bc you can tell that they cut the shrimp up in pieces to give the illusion that it a-lot of shrimp when it is not. That could've been better!! I give it a 1 read more

My husband and I stopped in for a quick lunch and fell in love with the atmosphere and service. Our server was Jae (Jay) and she was attentive, fun, kind and above an beyond. She really made our dinning experience, she showed us how to properly use chopsticks and gave us a tool to help practice. The food was nothing short or delicious. It was hot, fresh and flavorful. I got a salmon teriyaki bento box and my husband got a 3 special Combo C (Sushi) and he said it was great. We will definitely be back with the family. read more

Our new favorite sushi joint! Such great quality fish! And staff is so kind. Can't wait to come back again and again.

I've eaten at Tsunami Sushi several times. The restaurant has a simple but relaxing decor. The waitress who typically serves my family is friendly and particularly nice to my 8-year old daughter. The freshness of fish and overall quality of sushi (sashimi, nigiri, rolls) equals or exceeds other local sushi restaurants at a similar price point. I always feel like I've gotten good value. read more

A good place to try if you're in the Fair Lakes Shopping Center. The ramen was just ok. The chicken teriyaki sauce seems a bit watered down. But the rolls were decent. I'd recommend going just for the sushi/rolls. Service was friendly. Small cozy spot for a nice dinner outing. read more

Been coming here for 10-11 years and have always been happy with the food and service :) Fish is consistently fresh even when we do takeout! read more

Came here tonight with my family and we tried various type of dishes. We enjoyed them all! They were well prepared, looked appetizing, and tasted good. The service was pleasant, courteous and prompt. They came by to refill our tea and water before they were completely empty. We appreciated the better quality chopsticks to eat our sushi with. It's also located in a convenient location too. Can get my shopping done then go for a meal or the other way around. Will be coming back! We had started eating off the plate before taking some of the pics, so sorry some of the dishes show less than how it was served. read more

Was in the area and decided to stop in for lunch. They have a great variety of lunch specials. We got a bento box and a couple sushi rolls. We started with edamame and gyoza and our bento boxes came with miso soup. The gyoza was the fried version, I preferred steamed/pan seared but they don't make it that way. It was still pretty good and flavor. I really enjoyed the chicken bento box! The teriyaki sauce for the chicken was great. It came with shrimp/veggie tempura and a couple California roll pieces. We also had an eel avocado roll which was good. We decided to try the Hawaiian sunset roll, which was salmon and pineapple with some crunch. It was not good. For some reason the pineapple inside the roll was hard. We sent it back and they were nice about it. I'd definitely come back for the bento box! read more

Upon hearing there were managerial changes, I gave Tsunami another shot and I was not impressed. Food wise, 2.5/5. There was still a bit of skin on my salmon, the tuna on top of the volcano was just not good, the crunch tasted stale, and my nigiri was simply sub par. Nothing tasted fresh, even the miso soup felt off. What keeps my rating at a 1 star is not food related. I ordered through their website, checked out, and then was charged an additional 2 times for $0.50 and $3. I had already agreed to $71.43, that is the price I agreed to, it is scummy to try to pull one over on me and charge me extra money after I've paid. I understand that add ons are extra, but that should be included on the checkout price. When I called to address this, I ended up getting the refund but the tone I received was very condescending. I will not be returning again. read more

This is one of my family's favorite restaurants. We've tried dozens of dishes, from speciality rolls to bentos, and everything is fantastic. And the service is even better. read more

Worse experience! We went there on Saturday night 9:30pm but the server rushed us to order, she came to the table ask like 3 times less than 5 minutes. She claimed because the kitchen is about to close. Doesn't the kitchen usually close 30 mins before closing, not 1 hour? We felt so rushed and couldn't really make decision on what we want to order and end up something else rather than sushi and the food wasn't good read more

First time eating here, and what a gem! Wonderful service, pleasant ambiance, and delightful food! We both got the Chirashi lunch special, which was both affordable, delicious, and beautifully plated! Would definitely recommend. read more

Need to update my review. The owners dove in and ultimately helped clear all of this up - THANK YOU !! Nice that our neighborhood restaurant cares about their neighbors- Have continued and will continue to frequent Tsunami. Great choice for sushi - read more

Great service Went in for a takeout order and staff was very nice and helpful! Sushi was very good! Highly recommend!! read more

Sushi here are reasonably priced! They have a lot of different roles to pick from and they have combo rolls where you can get 2-3 rollls for a set price. Their menu not only consist of sushi but other items like hibachi, ramen, Katsu, fried rice, etc so definitely a good place for people with different taste! I wouldn't say there are anything special about the sushi -- standard like other ones in the area. I came here on Valentine's Day and unfortunately they were so busy i waited 1hr+ to get my sushi... which is a bummer because i was starving. The ladies tried their best to seat everyone and get all take out / online orders packaged and ready so definitely feel for these ladies on a busy holiday. So recommend to not come here of Valentine's Day unless you're okay with waiting for a bit. This is located in a shopping center so has plenty of parking! Rating this a 4/5 because i wasn't too overly impressed with the place but was a standard sushi place !! Maybe their hot foods are better ? I'd come back to try their katsu and see. read more

Been here a handful of times. It's a decent go to for Japanese bento boxes and sushi at a decent price. Actually, the price is really good for the portion and food always seems to come out in a timely fashion. Quality is consistent and the taste is pretty good. Service is always friendly and the place always looks clean. They have so many sushi options to choose from and there's like 5 or so different bento boxes. There's a variety of items on the menu that caters to everyone's palette and dietary needs. read more

Soooo goood!!!! We catered from Tsunami for the wedding's reception and it was fantastic!

Their lunch special is very worth it! Their rolls are pretty good and the front staff were friendly. I would avoid the tempuras though cause mine we were very oily. read more

When coming in I didn't know what to expect. The place was decently packed the couple of times I walked past but it was empty last night. I walked in with a friend and we ordered the takoyaki, toro maki, and the chicken hibachi. The takoyaki was a bit pricey and $7 for 6 pieces. It was lukewarm and all the pieces were mostly filling. The toro maki came out and it was icy and not properly brought to room temperature as sushi should be. Finally, the chicken hibachi came out very pale and dry. The chicken looked like it had just been boiled and had no flavor. We had to soak it in soy sauce before event attempting to eat it. With those 3 dishes, it came out to over $50 which was a bit wild considering the quality. The service was slow considering there were at least 4 servers and the restaurant was empty. I would probably not come back again as the sushi in H-Mart is more worth it. read more

This is my family's go-to sushi takeout spot. I've never actually eaten inside of the restaurant but it always looks busy in the evenings. For the price, you get generous portions of sushi and there's something on the menu for everyone. I'm personally a huge fan of the Pink Lady roll. Overall, the quality is consistent and the prices are very reasonable. read more

Sushi is really good I think. I mean I'm not an expert but I like it. I like the eel. Eel is yummy.

This is my go to casual sushi restaurant! Family owned business that makes very good sushi! I always order the Kenny roll when I go and switch it up with a smaller second roll or some nigiri. They give you a good portion of fish here per nigiri and not too much rice. Great fish quality and always consistent. They have dine-in combos that are a great deal as well. There is always people in there when I go! A sign of a great business with great food! read more

I have great memories of this place because I always take my parents after we shop at the nearby Target or Uniqlo, or if we want to swing by to buy a giant sushi platter for takeout. The service is always great and the food is yummy and hits the spot. For the price, you also get ALOT of food. The inside of the restaurant is cozy, and honestly, this is the place to be during the holidays - something about Christmas music playing over chicken karaage and sashimi is just warm and welcoming. Highly recommend! read more

Tsunami Sushi - The Family Platter (4 rolls) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

The place is nice and my waitress was wonderful! I went at around 6 and the place was a bit empty. I am however still on my journey of finding a sushi spot that speaks to me and feels like someplace that I wish to visit often. It's a me thing, not necessarily them... the sushi I ordered was yummy and the sashimi was cut a bit thick for my taste... plus it was freezing cold lol. I understand that refrigeration is of utmost importance but my sashimi was so so cold. I loved--loved the miso soup, slurped it down too quick!! Overall, if you are in the Fairfax area stop in and try this place... prices are cool. read more

Had an excellent time at Tsunami Sushi this past weekend. We are vegetarians so always a little wary trying out new Korean/Japanese places because even if dishes are vegetarian they have the smell of seafood ingrained in them, when restaurants use the same oil, knives etc.. Kudos to Tsunami in that aspect. We had the Vegge roll platter and the Super Veggie maki roll platter. Everything was fresh, smelt and tasted of veggies. Even the seaweed wrap was impeccably done with no unwanted aromas in it. Definitely going to be back for more. Loved their cream cheese deep fried dumplings too. Great spot, good, well priced food, relaxed I rushed service.. definitely a go to place for vegetarians! read more

My girlfriend and I decided to place a pickup order today as it is Mother's Day and would likely be busy (it was). I arrived at the restaurant and was first in line to collect my order. An employee approached me and asked the couple behind me for the amount in their party. They politely pointed to me as I was ahead of them, but the employee waved her hand at me as if I was inconsequential. I didn't think anything of it in the moment. She showed the couple to their table. I continued to wait. After 5 minutes or so, the employee returned to the front of the restaurant and stepped behind the counter and didn't acknowledge me. When she looked up, I said "hi I am picking up" to which she replied rudely "name?" After receiving the name of our order, she went to the table, identified the package, and passed it off to me as if I should have known where it was. At first I didn't think anything of this - it's a busy holiday and I know folks are stressed. But in context, and with consideration to all the mannerisms I can't properly describe here that the employee made towards me, I realized that she was treating me like a food delivery worker. Which prompted my review - is this how you treat Uber Eats drivers? It was all very rude. I understand Tsunami is under new management (saw in Northern Virginia Foodies - wishing a genuine congratulations to the new owners). But please ensure that new employees are not rude to people - even if I was a delivery driver, I did not deserve that rudeness and disregard. Plenty of people do not tip when they place pickup orders - I do, and I regret doing so because I received only rudeness back. read more
