Tsubaki Sushi & Hibachi - Oklahoma City

Tsubaki is not your common Japanese restaurant in Oklahoma City.  Not only is it located off a highway and in a gas station complex, but Tsubaki has its secrets!  The secrets being that it has great authentic sushi and such a friendly atmosphere!  The atmosphere is straight forward; seating, a sushi bar, and a clean environment.  The waitresses are absolutely fantastic and quick to refill water drinks, take orders, and are very intuitive when you need something.  We have gone a few times already before I created this review. In the most recent time, we ordered their Spicy Crunchy Tuna Rolls, which are seriously the BEST tuna handrolls and rolls (trust me, I've had both) I've ever had.  They aren't made in the common style around OKC, but broken down into a tuna tartare which creates a smooth, soft texture and is mixed with crunchy tempura flakes and spicy mayo.  It seriously is an orgasm for your mouth.  Plus, you cannot beat the price at $5.50 a... read more

I wanted to try this place ever since Dave Cathey reviewed it in The Oklahoman.  It was worth the wait.  A sushi place seems kind of odd in the middle of this gas station strip mall, but the inside is decorated very nicely with wood paneling, browns, and blacks.  My wife likes sushi more than I do, but we both ordered the lunch box specials.  It didn't hurt that each lunch box comes with 4 bites of California roll (although wasabi and ginger are not included). For $8, the lunch box seems to be a good deal.  You get miso soup, a small salad with the classic Japanese steakhouse dressing flavored with ginger and carrots, 4 bites of California roll, 2 bite-size shrimp dumplings, a scoop of sushi rice, some steamed and salted edamame, and your choice of an entree.  I got the hibachi salmon.  It was served on a generous bed of vegetables in just the right amount of sauce.  She got the chicken tempura.  It was served with some tempura okra and green beans. ... read more

Cu ușurință cel mai bun sushi în oraș. Adevăratul cunoscător de sushi trebuie să stea la bar și să aleagă alegerea bucătarului. Tipul ăsta este legitiv și nu vor fi dezamăgiți.

Mâncarea de aici este comparabilă cu unele dintre locurile de sushi mai bune din jurul OKC. Din păcate, serviciul are nevoie de câteva tweaking. Chelnerul nostru, în timp ce foarte prietenos și politicos, nu a putut înțelege prea multe despre ceea ce am spus. Când a fost timpul să plătească, am dat chelnerului cardul nostru, apoi am dispărut 20 de minute. A trebuit să cer să-l întreb pe un alt angajat să-l găsească. Un pic ciudat.

"Drove in from out of town to try this restaurantYelp state open from 3-9; sign on the door states 'CLOSED ON SUNDAY' Not good first impression!!" Are
