★★★★★ 5/5 Tanabe Japanese Restaurant exceeded our expectations! The salmon sashimi was fresh and served in generous portions, my favorite dish of the night. The tuna sashimi, chicken karaage, tempura don, katsudon, and onnagi don were all delicious. We also enjoyed refreshing Kirin beers. The staff was friendly and the service was excellent. Highly recommended for a memorable Japanese dining experience.

Quite a gem in the Remedios area. This is probably one of the best Japanese restaurants I have ever dined in. This is mid-range price point at about ₱700 (in 2022) per head if you're really hungry. My husband got the steak set, and I got the tempura set. Both are complete meals right there for about ₱750 each, while our friends got salmon bowls. Everything is so gooooood, even the tofu appetizer. I hope they have branches in the South, too, as I haven't been able to encounter a Japanese restaurant this good in South NCR.

I ordered a chasoba, and a baby cockroach came out. And then the staff changed it for me, and the bowl is very dirty.

Celebrated our work anniversary here and we enjoyed the food that we ordered. Serving size was just enormous for us though. Would probably come back for the mixed sashimi and miso soup.

My new favorite in Japanese cuisine. Nice place with excellent service and excellent personnels.

Handa down BEST value Japanese restaurant in Manila. Top quality at reasonable prices. My definite go to place for very good and high quality sashimi. Pro tip - get the chirashi bowl. It also comes with miso soup with clams! Once you go clams you never go back.

Everybody loves Japan but if you're out of the budget to go to Japan? Don't worry Tanabe Japanese Restaurant will make you feel as if your living you best life in their country. The food (specially the mix sashimi) tastes like heaven. Will surely go back to this restaurant and recommend this to my friends and family. Love this!

Delicious, as always. Better than some of the restaurants I visited in Japan. Love the onigiri, especially the pickled plum. The staff are always friendly, too.

5 stars for me! Their california roll is to die for!! Also love their ambiance, its super cozy and perfect for date night 😉 Really authentic japanese food for a budget price!! LOVE!

I dined here last month, and I can confidently say that it is a hidden gem for Japanese cuisine lovers! When I walked in I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that immediately transported me to Japan. The service at Tanabe was exceptional. The staff members were attentive, friendly, and well-versed in the intricacies of Japanese cuisine. They were more than willing to offer recommendations and explain the various dishes on the menu. Now, let's talk about the food—the true star of the show. Tanabe offers a wide range of authentic Japanese dishes that cater to different tastes and preferences. I started my meal with a bowl of miso soup that was rich and flavorful, setting the tone for what was to come. Next, I indulged in their sushi platter, which showcased the freshest and highest quality seafood. Each piece was expertly crafted, bursting with freshness and delicate flavors. One dish that truly stood out was their sashimi. The presentation was exquisite, and the taste was simply divine. The slices of fish were incredibly fresh and melted in my mouth, leaving me craving for more. Tanabe's commitment to sourcing the finest ingredients was evident in every bite. Another highlight of my dining experience was the teppanyaki. I had the pleasure of watching the skilled chefs in action as they cooked my meal right in front of me. The ambiance at Tanabe was cozy and authentic, with traditional Japanese décor and soft lighting. The restaurant was immaculately clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant and comfortable environment for an enjoyable dining experience. Tanabe Japanese Restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. The impeccable service, authentic flavors, and attention to detail showcased their dedication to providing an exceptional dining experience. Whether you're a sushi enthusiast, a fan of teppanyaki, or simply looking to savor authentic Japanese cuisine, Tanabe is a must-visit destination in Manila. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu offerings.

Although the beef bran has risen a lot, it is as clean and delicious as home-cooked rice. This place always leaves a good impression on the friendliness of the staff.

Worst Japanese restaurant in my life. So noisy and zero service mind of staffs. Requested small things 4~5 times but never made it and no feedback. Finally cancelled all my orders and left.

(Translated by Google) I went to this restaurant for lunch during GCQ. There was a sanitizer on the table. On this day I ordered a tuna bowl. The tuna sashimi topped on the rice was tender and delicious with a texture close to that of Toro. Toro is a rare part of tuna and is more expensive and expensive than ordinary tuna sashimi. It is a recommended restaurant for dishes that we Japanese feel delicious even if they eat.

The food is excellent! Not so pricey. Will definitely eat again here. 😋

One of the best practical japanese resto in the philippines i've been,the servings were superp and gorgeous not to mention the taste and the size of the servings all so suuulit ! High five !

4.5 star. Their set choice is convenience for someone hard to choose. Free soup full of clams. Seafood so fresh. Must try store too.

All time fav! Sashimi are always very fresh! They have fresh oysters too! A little pricey but worth the money

Ok.. not bad but not so good

They serve good japanese food. 👍👍 Must try it if you're a japanese food lover.

Great food great peope great ambiance

Delicious food. You'll see a lot of Japanese eating here. I prefer to dine at the the 2nd floor because the 2st floor got a funky smell when we visited.

Looks small on menu but bigger in actual. Price reasonable due to serving and ambiance. Flavors are different but tea and shredded vegetables are a bit bland. Servers are polite and servings are artistic!

best grill gindara bento

Excellent food, only drawback was the smoking section upstairs where the smoke would trickle down to the non smoking section

Wide selection of food and liquor for a reasonable price.

Super suit bento box meal

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Tanabe Japanese Restaurant and I am incredibly satisfied with my experience there! The food was delectable and the attentive service was top-notch. Not to mention the wonderful atmosphere which was calming and pleasant. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, making sure all my needs were met. I highly recommend Tanabe Japanese Restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal in a comfortable setting.

I love the food here... So good. But always check your bills when you pay..

Kani salad is a must try. Light and refreshing using crab together with cucumber and a creamy spicy dressing. Quick service and very affordable prices for the quality you get.

I had an exceptional Japanese meal here during my stay in Manila. I heard that Anthony Bourdain ate here during one of his Manila visits so I thought it should be pretty good. I had their black cod bento box which also included tempura, sashimi and chawanmushi. I also ordered some sushi which was excellent. They feature a vast menu so you can dine from a simple bowl of noodles all the way up to an exquisite omakase meal. Service is very good as well. This would be a great choice for Japanese food when in Manila. Our server, Jo, was very attentive and he coworkers rallied around us. We only had to ask for another round of green tea. Sashimi was as fresh as their chunky wassabi. They had hamachi Kama and it was a big serving. It was very tasty. Super clean tables and floor. I didn't slip or feel like it was greasy. Don't be intimated by the outside, inside the restaurant is clean and the people are friendly.

My second time here. The place is a bit small but perfect for intimate dinners and romantic dates. They also have good choices for business lunches. Their food is super worth the price. Will surely go back.

I had early dinner there tonight around 5pm. While having my meal, you can hear someone from the side where they prepare sashimi, sneezing continuously. I looked at the cashier lady with a look that asks what's going on, and she only looked back at me then looked down. What is the safety protocol of this restaurant during this pandemic???

If I crave for authentic Great Japanese food, I can only Think of TANABE Japanese Restaurant to Satisfy my cravings. Hamachi Sashimi, uni, Gindara Or steak bento, chawanmushi, Etc. The best!

The menu was a delightful mix of both familiar and innovative dishes. I had the pleasure of trying their signature dish. Not only was the food outstanding, but the presentation was impeccable. Each plate was a work of art, showcasing the chef's creativity and attention to detail. It was evident that they took great pride in their culinary creations.

We were very satisfied with the meal. California roll with shrimp and seafood salad was good for the two of us. The sukiyaki was too much food and it was very tasty. No problem here. We enjoyed eating here!

Good place to eat. Quality food. Very authentic.

Delicious authentic Japanese food. my favorite was the uni sashimi. the serving was generous and the size of the uni is bigger than other Japanese restaurants around the area

Food is great. People are friendly and price is good too.

The restaurant charge 10% service fee for taking out. There is no any service, it’s unreasonable.

My comfort japanese restaurant. With the Japanese chef owner personally managing the place, over the years the quality of their food remains constant.

(Translated by Google) For dinner, I ate nigiri sushi (tuna, sea urchin, scallop, and all the rest), salmon harass (slightly lacking grilled, more than half left), and a boiled eggplant boiled, but during the night, I had a severe vomiting. I couldn't stand up for 2 days and became food poisoning, so I could only drink hot water for a while. By the way, it was all right because my companion only ate Yakisoba. I've been in the Philippines many times over the years and dozens of times, but this is my first food poisoning. .. ..

(Translated by Google) Delicious! Located along the Remedios Circle, the location is easy to understand. The inside is like a private room and privacy is protected. Most of the customers are Japanese. I ordered a tempura set meal and a sashimi set meal, but it was delicious. This also comes with chawanmushi. This chawanmushi is exquisitely delicious with the hardness of the egg and the ingredients inside. There was shrimp in it, but the soup stock was good and it was delicious. The price is not cheap, but it is not expensive. The fountain in the Remedios Circle on the front is also pretty clean and you won't get bored while waiting for the grab. (Original) おいしい！レメディオスサークル沿いにあって場所もわかりやすい。中は個室みたいになっててプライバシーも守られる。お客さんは日本人が多めです。天ぷら定食と刺身定食を頼んだがおいしかった。これには茶碗蒸しもついてくる。この茶碗蒸しがまたたまごの硬さや中の具やらが絶妙においしい。エビが入ってたがいい出汁が出ていておいしかった。値段も安くはないが高くもないといった感じ。表のレメディオスサークルにある噴水もなかなかキレイでグラブを待ってる間も退屈はしない。

One of the better Japanese Restaurant in Malate, Manila. Serves fresh sushi and ingredients from Japan. With owner and head chef tanabe doing the sushi for you. Quite busy during dinner time

Very good
