Tabetai

Tabetai is a small, trendy spot located in the old town of Cartagena offering world class sushi with a Colombian twist. This hole in the wall, only seats 15 and doesn’t accept reservations and is named Cartagena’s best sushi spot where you will find an array of fresh sushi, sashimi, nigiri, tempura and other Japanese classics.

The restaurant puts emphasis on offering fusion sushi and is not your typical Japanese style sushi, making it a true exploration for your taste buds. Portions are quite large and prices are reasonable and match the quality of fresh ingredients and friendly service. They do a great limonada de coco and the sashimi slices are huge making it a must-order item for sashimi lovers.

Tabetai also has a second location in Bocagrande, right beside the Regatta Hotel, in a renovated shipping container with a small terrace on top with extra seating. A live DJ plays most nights adding to the laid back atmosphere of this trendy little spot in the more modern part of town.

The menus and ambiance of both locations are quite different making them both worth a try if you are a true sushi lover.
