Tsuru Japanese Restaurant has been in Davao for about 30 years. They are considered as one of the best food establishments in the city. If you plan to dine at Tsuru but do not know what to order, we got you. Here are our Tsuru Favorites.
Their menu offers familiar Japanese dishes and a few exciting innovative items. Ingredients are always fresh and of high quality.
Makimono
Start with one or two rolls from their Makimono Menu.
A sure crowd-pleaser is the Crazy Maki. It is made with sushi rice, kani, and Japanese mayo, all wrapped in nori. Then, covered in tenkasu (fried tempura batter bits) and topped with more kani.
Simple. Nothing is raw. It is lightly seasoned. And has crunchy elements. It is perfect for kids and adults.
Here are more favorites from their Makimono Menu.
We love the Salmon Aburi Roll. You are sure to love it, too. We also recommend the Bonsai Roll, and the Tokyo Tempura Roll.
Sukiyaki
If you are dining in a group of 2-4 persons, you will probably enjoy sharing Tsuru’s Sukiyaki.
Sukiyaki
Our Editor Ria highly recommends their Sukiyaki. It has generous slivers of beef, tofu, and veggies with noodles in a rich beef broth.
Also in Ria’s list of her Tsuru favorites is Mixed Seafood Teppanyaki.
Mixed Teppanyaki
Their Mixed Seafood Teppanyaki is a good option for diners who want to eat seafood but do not like them raw.
