Ta-Kumi | Restaurante Japonés - Málaga

We were excited to visit this restaurant, and it did not disappoint—one of our favorite meals of our entire Andalusia trip! Joao provided excellent service and spot-on recommendations for food and drinks. Seated at the sushi bar, we enjoyed watching the chefs at work. The food was incredibly fresh and well-executed—we had rockfish usuzukuri (thin-cut sashimi), a mixed hirazukuri sashimi platter, and a variety of cold and hot nigiri (spicy tuna, salmon aburi, toro aburi, scallop, wagyu, quail egg with wagyu), plus hosomaki (spicy tuna) and uramaki (soft-shell crab). The cocktails were creative, including a wasabi mule and one that tasted like Asian melon ice cream. Joao also recommended a fantastic sake and wine pairing. An unforgettable experience—highly recommend!

Incredible Japanese food, you rarely find a restaurant serving this level of cooking. Don't miss the waygu and quail egg nigiri, the tuna tartare, the hot sushi with tempura prawn, the amazing mochi. We won't be able to come back to Malaga without visiting here again. Lovely staff, very welcoming to children, and beautiful views of the Alcazaba from the terrace.

Had the set menu. Next time would order off the menu and select. Honestly a bit hit and miss: a few of the sashimi pieces were just past thawed in the centre, way too cold and clearly frozen and still near frozen. The red prawn sashimi, in particular the heads were amazing. The torched sushi selection was superb. But I ordered two additional rolls off the menu and was not impressed. The wagu was good but it came last and I already had disappointment from 75% of the dishes before it so I just wanted to finish up and pay my bill. For a Michelin star restaurant serving sashimi still frozen in the middle is absolutely unacceptable. For the price of the set menu of €135 I felt like I did not receive the quality or money worth. Service and atmosphere was perfect. I sat outside which looked at the armoury walls. Would not return except for the red prawn sashimi and the torched sushi selection.

We definitely advise to sit at the bar for an immersive experience! Melanie was our server and her recommendations were impeccable! Thank you!

Amazing produce, ambiance & service. The restaurant deserves its Michelin recognition but should have a star. Best quality sushi I have eaten - Taster menu is well worth it. Wine pairing is also one of best I’ve experienced. Thanks to Joao who looked after us really well.

This was a truly incredible food experience, with some of the most delicious and beautifully presented dishes I have experienced. From the start with the amuse-buche every course was a taste sensation. I particularly recommend the eel nigiri, crab rolls, wagu nigiri, gyoza, sashimi but everything was exceptional with extra surprise touches thar elevate and complement the dishes The staff were very informative and a pleasure to be with. The only thing is we went around 9pm on a Thursday and we were the only ones in the main restaurant. That's such a shame for the restaurant, I really hope their weekend trade is great. They deserve to be full! Go you won't regret a minute

If you are used to high end weat coast or Japanese sushi and sashimi places you will appreciate this restaurant. Tasting menu is good. Much better than most of the Asian fusion places that do sushi and maki. A wider selection of sashimi would be welcome. Definitely try the salmonete sashimi

This is the best sushi I’ve had since moving to Spain. The food was absolutely delicious. Preparation was beautiful. The fish was melt in your mouth fresh. Everything was prepared to perfection. Highly recommend.

This is an expensive Japanese restaurant in Malaga. Fixed menu is priced around 100€. I ordered a la carte according to my preferences (normally skip the deserts for Asian food). Food is excellent. €95 bill with sake made me so comfortable and full. In general, I spent €20-30 for a meal in Malaga. This is way above the average but worth it if you are craving for Asian food.

Yep, an excellent place to satisfy your sushi and sashimi craving. The chefs are knowledgeable, professional, and funny. View of the old town was gorgeous but late afternoon the sun is beating down the patio. There's a set menu for €95 but didn't seem a good value so we opted a la carte. Shrimp Tempura was correct, batter was light and airy. Gyoza was well prepared with crunch. The real good stuff is the Toro, Eel with Foie Gras and Black Truffle shavings. I then spied a Tiger Prawn in the back and they proceeded to prepare it just by a quick steam bath then served rare. Amazing. Crew was warm and friendly, located perfectly

This is actually a Michelin star restaurant. That actually doesn't mean anything to me as those types of labels just don't matter to me. But the food is really good! For a Michelin the prices aren't overpriced. The real difference is the food is really pretty. The sushi is very good. Very fresh! The location is perfect. Even if you stop for a beer outside there is a view of the castle. Very nice restaurant!

We found this little restaurant on the hill near Alcazaba and decided to stop in for a bite. Wow! If only our budget was larger. This was superb food and outstanding service. Not only that but the waiter surprised us with a small appetizer prior to our meal and a chocolate after lunch. Everything was fresh and beautifully presented. There is a downstairs and upstairs area for your dining pleasure. It is worth the price to have this wonderful food. We started with the Miso soup, followed by Prawns and Vegetable Tempura, and the California Tuna Roll. The surprise with the Tempura was the small shishito peppers and the Tempura dipping sauce. Be sure to stop by this lovely restaurant and tell them I sent you!
