Located in the heart of Cooper Young, a historic Midtown restaurant and retail destination, Tsunami is a Pacific Rim-inspired restaurant where guests can feel like globetrotters from the comfort of their own table.

Award-winning owner and Chef Ben Smith fuses various ethnic cuisines—from Asia and the South Pacific to France and the American South—to create unique and flavorful small plates and seafood specialties.

The cozy restaurant, adorned with local art and handmade accents, offers a unique bar centerpiece with fine wines and liquors, local draft beers, and daily-rotating specialty cocktails.

Consistently named “Best Seafood Restaurant” in the Memphis Magazine and Memphis Flyer, coveted Tsunami entrées including a spice-crusted tuna with wasabi vinaigrette, beef tenderloin with smoked chile butter, and roasted seabass with black Thai rice and soy beurre blanc.

Everyone had a wonderful dinner last night. The barramundi was delicious and the sea bass, as always, was a classic. Tried the tofu for the first time and loved it! Thank you for a great evening out

Tsunami is always a win! Food is amazing, service is off the chart and ambiance is wonderful. The Jeff, Ben, Ben and the gang will make you feel so welcomed. If you haven’t tried Tsunami, you need to go. ,
