Tanuki - Yekaterinburg

It's not Japanese, but more of an Asian cuisine restaurant. The service was friendly and professional, the food fresh and delicious. I really liked the fact they used a chicken thigh in the Thai chicken dish; more flavor than a chicken breast. Overall, it exceeded my expectations.

I was there yesterday for lunch and ordered salmon rolls and what was called some vegan warm salad dish. I lived in Taiwan for quite some time, and to be honest with you food is a bit too salty. I suggest to put less if you can. Also in real Japanese cuisine they use no salt or just a really tiny amount. I have Japanese friends and I know on average what's good for westerners in amount of salt and fat content isn't good enough for any Asian taste buds. If you use any flavour enhancements then I would suggest to use it less or check the content of them as well. It's hard to find anything close to the original flavours, so just try to use less, also check if the chef is a smoker because they lose usually the normal sense of saltiness.

Vegetarian options were tasty, good value, and super friendly service (especially our young waiter, his English was great and made our meal very easy and relaxing).

Went here for dinner on my birthday about a month ago...had a great selection sushi platters to chose from (shared one with my wife), as well as hot and cold appetizers to split. Somewhat limited selection of beer, but overall a good meal.

Not really authentic Japanese. i would say mixed asian restaurant. Food was alright.
