ABOUT

Tanuki restaurant was created by two born and raised Markham locals who have travelled extensively through the back alleys of Asia, looking for the most unique and interesting flavours. 

After many years of working at some of the top restaurants and hotels in the city, the chefs at Tanuki have returned to their roots to create a modern take on Japanese comfort food, using local seasonal produce and a strong inspiration from Markham culture.
