    Seriously good
    Current
    Tsunami is a kind of perfect neighbourhood restaurant - it is all that Clapha aspires to be. It is big, light, airy and comfortable with great decor that feels utterly original, rather than a sad attempt at style. The food is seriously good - you can have a quick bite, sharing a few plates and some warm saké or you can settle in for a couple of hours of blissfully good food. And on weekends you can get a bowl of soba noodle soup topped with tempura prawns and vegetables for £6,50 - the ultimate Sunday lunch. Service is knowledgeable and friendly - who could ask for more?

    Delicious
    Current
    The reviews I have read about tsunami have been mixed from delicious, must go, to expensive, nothing special, don't bother.

    I loved it. You could go and have a relatively cheap meal - order a range of appetisers with a few friends and eat tapas style - and with 20% if you order before 7pm, you could easily get away under £15 per person with a cheeky glass of wine.

    The tempura was delicious, and the serves were huge. The seabass was divine and the eggplant with sesame - well, I would go back just for that. I took a group of friends there, and it was a bit pricey, because we completely over ordered, they all raved about the food.

    A good place to go for a bit of a treat without completely breaking the bank

    I've been to Tsunami twice so far. My visits are only limited by the price. This is a reflection on my ability to pay, rather than willingness - you get a good quantity of wonderful food.

    Each dish takes its time to arrive, so leave plenty of time for your meal. The only downside to this is that it's all too easy to polish off your wine before getting halfway through the meal.

    Save room too for the 'surprise box' of desserts - a selection of delicate, beautifully presented Japanese sweets.

    I have been going to Tsunami since it first opened. Not a lot has changed! However i know i can go there and have all the dishes i love. SCallops in smelt egg sauce (there may as well be no scallops as the sauce overwhelms so much, yet delicious), Prawns in kataifi pastry, sunkiss salmon (straight from Nobu), great tempura and so much more. The soft shell crab roll a must have!

    Despite very little change over the years and the loss of the former Nobu chef, Tsunami is always enjoyable and for what you get not that expensive. Order before seven for a 20% discount.

    I advise you to try it. settle down with bottle of Riesling and order what you feel like, let them decide in what order you should eat and enjoy!

    Great Japanese

    In the not-too-distant past (and were talking pre-Asian tsunami days here, or obviously the name would be different) this was somewhere one would take ones parents for a special meal. One may even take one's prospective or current lover there for a bit of taste-bud romance. Needless to say I went for the parents option. Ahem... I first went to Tsunami on the recommendation of a work-chum, who raved that they had poached a chef from Nobu. Now, as a young, upcoming member of the overpaid-for-a-bollocksy-corporate-job club, I thought this would be the perfect place to impress my Ma & Pa with a fancy dinner near my old gaff in Stockwell. And fancy it certainly was. I believe the phrase is Asian fusion though Im almost certain this phrase is now defunct as Im not exactly on the pulse of current culinary lingo. Annie hoo, Ma & Pa (and indeed son) were rightly impressed by the classy service and mouth-watering dishes that were served up. I always knew it would be pricey, and it was, so dont go expecting bargains (I seem to remember almost choking on my Gold card when I saw the bill, but pride got the better of me and I insisted as you do). As an aside, the last time I went, who should sit in the very chair I had just vacated upon finishing our meal, but Nathalie Portman (you know, Leon child-temptress who grew up to become Darth Vaders estranged lover). Now thats what I call A-list shelebrities.
