I like a nice bit of Japanese nosh when i'm on my holidays, so Tatami is a welcome find. Tucked away in a quiet corner of Kuwait's skyscraper park, it's the head-to destination for expats, gastros and ladies-who-lunch alike. Trendy minimalist concrete interior design sets things up.. Japanese staples - sushi, sashimi, tempura etc - are reliably and imaginatively delivered,... More

One of the best Japanese restaurants in Kuwait. Tatami tries to be different and they have unique offerings! You can check my blog ansam518.com for my reviews

I eat at Tatami often because I absolutely love it. The food is always fresh, the staff very attentive. There are some great vegetarian options and an excellent wagyu steak if you're not in the mood for sushi. When it comes to dessert I highly recommend their cheesecake although most people rave about the chocolate fondue/molten cake.

Tatami is not only some of the best sushi I've had in Kuwait but is the most reasonably priced around. They're sushi is fresh, the restaurant is clean and minimal and the staff are friendly and not all hovery like most places here. They're hamachi carpaccio it outstanding and the o toro was superb. Absolutely recommend!

A great find! An off the beaten track Japanese eatery with a contemporary flare. Very cozy atmosphere, great service & deliciously fresh food. Must tries: Sesame Nori Chips, Spinach & Shitake Gyozas, Lime-glazed Salmon Steak, Pan-seared Wagyu & Chocolate Truffle Molten for dessert!

We went there last year, and its a pity that we haven't been there after that. Its a quiet restaurant in the quiter part of the city. you may not find it / notice it unless you know that it exists. food is good, staff is courteous, service is good, and the feeling is fairly cozy. Recommended.
