About
A second-floor sushi spot overlooking Jaco's main road, known for a local fusion twist — the seafood trio with the signature mango sauce and the specialty rolls are what stand out, and Chef Mario's plating gets singled out by name. The fish is fresh and well cut. Service can drag on slower nights, so settle in rather than rush.

This place was actually quite unique. It’s a bit different from your typical traditional sushi spot, but being in Costa Rica, you can tell they’ve added their own local fusion twist. It’s hard for me to label it a full five stars since I’ve been to Japan and tried some of the most exceptional sushi, but I honestly don’t have many complaints. The service was fairly quick, and I especially enjoyed the seafood trio with their signature mango sauce — that one really stood out. I’d definitely return to try more from their menu.
Got seated at 7:30, sushi did not come out until 9:15. One roll took significantly longer than the others and was not brought out until 20 minutes after we had finished eating. Restaurant was seemingly not busy so I am unsure the delay. 2 stars because the sushi was good, but I would not recommend this location unless you have 4 hours to sit and wait. They also have these signs on the table saying they’re basically making you wait so you buy more drinks. Sushi and service is much better quality down the road at Ohanas.
Tsunami Sushi in Jaco Beach is hands down the best sushi I've ever had! I've dined in top restaurants worldwide, but Chef Mario's artistry in the kitchen sets this place apart. Each dish is a beautiful presentation of fresh ingredients, with incredible flavors that truly delight the palate. The specialty rolls are a must-try, showcasing his innovative combinations. The atmosphere is inviting, and the service is top-notch, with attentive staff ready to offer great recommendations. If you're in Jaco Beach, don’t miss Tsunami Sushi. It's a culinary experience that will leave you craving more!
