I've been a patron of Tamako for many years now. It's been my go-to-place for not just quality Japanese food but even as an option, I always consider Tamako for their warm and wonderful service, quaint ambience and refreshingly honest meals. Andy, the owner, runs this humble establishment and is always around to answer any queries or share a suggested dish. Along with their free flow of barley tea, their food is served fresh and within a good waiting time. Try the Udon - fresh and thick. The soups are delicious and their sushi is tasty as well. Tamako goes against the grain of the usual Japanese chains or those with inflated prices. I strongly recommend this to those seeking a family restaurant that serves good Japanese food!
