"Maybe it wasthat we had just left Gochi due to a long wait or maybe we made bad menu choices , but Tanto was not what I had expected and not nearly as good as I had hoped. From the Yelp reviews I had expected small Kyoto style Japanese plates like Gochi or Kappo NamiNami, though probably not as good or as fresh. But what we ordered was hearty, heavy, and not that great. Our waiter, who was reluctant to recommend anything, did recommend that we order more than we had planned. We wanted to know if our first three orders would have been enough food, and he said we should get a couple more. This makes sense at a place like Kappo NamiNami where the plates are much smaller than many people would...

I had heard great things about Tanto, so I had high hopes for my meal, hoping it would be as delicious as my experience at Gochi. Unfortunately, the food here fell short of my expectations. We tried the sashimi salad, garlic beef, pork clay pot, and seaweed onigiri, all of which were just average. It seems like we missed out on the popular clam ramen that everyone talks about. Overall, I prefer Gochi over Tanto and would choose to dine there instead.

I would rate the food at this restaurant as 3.5 stars, but I decided to round up to 4 stars due to the delicious barley tea and the welcoming service. The menu offered a nice selection, although I found the food to be just average. I particularly liked the unique baked salmon with cheese in miso, as it was a dish I hadn't seen on a Japanese menu before. I didn't realize that clam ramen was the specialty here, so I will definitely try it next time. The service was exceptional and very accommodating.
