About the restaurant

Using local and seasonal ingredients is the most important element in Japanese cuisine. It also has become the primary principle for the international culinary community. With commitment to that philosophy, Tamura features sustainable seasonal ingredients of the Pacific Northwest in authentic Japanese preparation. Tamura is a Kappo style restaurant where food is prepared in an open kitchen and served quickly in a lively environment where staff and guests talk about the food and beyond. Our goal is to become the very best restaurant to our guests by getting to know them and serving them in a personable yet professional manner. *Please note that a 20% living wage charge is included (dine in only).

We were attracted to The Tin Table by its high Google rating, its diverse (perhaps eclectic) menu, very reasonable prices. It did not disappoint. The sharables are certainly adequate for sharing or realistically an entrée if you choose not to share. The cheese plate with the warm olives is a fantastic combination.

needed just a little more help serving the dishes and drinks. Even though a small gathering, still seemed like wait between dishes and drinks was a little long.
