Time Out says

Tucked away in a quiet North Austin plaza, Tatsumi brings a slice of Japan to the city’s ever-evolving dining scene. The restaurant blends casual charm with an eye for detail, where sashimi is plated like art and every bite feels transportive. Whether you’re stopping in for a few pieces of nigiri, splurging on caviar-topped crudo or letting chef Elvin Jin guide your order, Tatsumi delivers a dining experience that doesn’t disappoint taste buds. For Austinites craving precision, freshness and a touch of ceremony with their sushi, this is the spot. 

The vibe: Understated and intimate, with just enough polish to make a weeknight sushi run feel like a special occasion. 

The food: Pristine sashimi, inventive crudos and delicate nigiri that balance tradition with a splash of modern indulgence. 

The drink: A small but thoughtful sake and wine list, plus Japanese beers to keep things easy. 

Time Out tip: Forget trying to decipher the menu layout—just ask chef Jin to recommend the finest fish, so you can get the best of the kitchen without overthinking it.
