Sushi Tadokoro

This was our splurge meal of our Southern California trip. We did omakase at the bar and our sushi chef was fun and a well-skilled. However, I was a little bit ill and couldn't enjoy myself fully. I'm not sure if it was my illness or what, but it also wasn't the best omakase we've had in terms of taste. My biggest regret is not ordering the homemade dessert. I misheard the chef and thought all of the dessert was homemade and ordered the ice cream. We have to go back for a re-do!

As a Michelin starred restaurant, our expectations are high! I would say, the experience was great! We love most of the food. The chef, who was making most of the food, was right in front us, explained all the food to us. Our of so many great food we ate, the clear fish soup wowed me the most. We had a good time!

This was my first Michelin Experience and I don’t think it could have gone any better. I ordered the Sashimi Omakase and it was phenomenal. The sushi chefs were very fun and knowledgeable and made it a really enjoyable experience. The service all around was great, and I’d definitely recommend this place if you have the time

What an incredible experience.... Food was off the charts amazing, and each course was a surprise. We were both surprisingly full at the end. Their cold sake menu is pretty extensive with some rare (and expensive) options. They offer beer and hot sake also, but no (western) wine option. There's no way I could pick just one dish as the favorite as each was amazing...even the desert (coffee flavored custard/gelee with a chocolate espresso bean garnish) was amazing. My wife said it was arguably the best dessert she's ever had. Reservations required and fill up fast...

I think the star rating here on Google is exactly correct (When writing this:4.7). This is such an amazing omakase experience there is no complaints and I would gladly return. On that same note, the canonization of a Michelin Star sets the expectation to perfection. Can Sushi Tadokoro stay relevant? I hope so.

One of the best meals I've ever had in my life. The difference between good sushi and this level quality is clear fun the first bite. It's a small place and it does get noisy, but not too the point where it feels crowded or to loud. Service is excellent. There are two people working the room and sometimes both of them check to make sure the table is doing well. At $160 a person, it's not a place that most people can afford to go to regularly. But for special occasions, it's well worth it.
