Where to Eat Sushi in Playa de Palma: Dinner and Live Entertainment at Tabana
Looking for sushi in Playa de Palma often means choosing between a sushi restaurant and somewhere that works for the rest of your evening.
That can be frustrating when one person wants nigiri and rolls, someone else wants steak or seafood, and the group wants to stay out after dinner rather than finish the night as soon as the plates are cleared.
Tabana gives the table more than one direction to go in. The menu includes sushi, tartare, nigiri, gyozas, Mediterranean starters, pasta, seafood, grilled meat and desserts, so everyone can order what they actually want. You can come for sushi, but nobody has to compromise if sushi is not their first choice.
It is also a place where dinner can lead into live entertainment, drinks and a later night in Playa de Palma.
Sushi at Tabana in Playa de Palma
The sushi menu at Tabana sits alongside the restaurant’s Mediterranean and grill dishes, rather than being treated as a small add-on at the bottom of the menu.
That matters when you are booking for more than two people. A table can start with sushi and sharing dishes, order different mains, then stay together for the rest of the evening instead of splitting into separate restaurants.
The Japanese side of the menu includes salmon tartare, bluefin tuna tartare, salmon nigiri, tuna nigiri, meat gyozas, vegetable gyozas, futomaki and several uramaki rolls.
There are familiar options for guests who know exactly what they want, but the menu also gives groups a few more interesting choices than the standard California roll and spicy tuna combination.

What Is on the Sushi Menu?
Tabana’s sushi selection covers tartare, nigiri, gyozas and rolls, giving you enough choice to build a full sushi-led meal or simply add a few Japanese dishes to the table.
The tartare section includes salmon tartare with Japanese-style seasoning, toasted sesame and crispy pani puri, plus bluefin tuna tartare with light soy, sesame oil, prawn bread and shiso.
For something simple, there is salmon nigiri and tuna nigiri. These work well as a starter for the table or alongside a few rolls.
The futomaki section includes the Philadelphia Futomaki and Spicy Tuna Futomaki. The Philadelphia combines salmon, cream cheese and avocado, while the Spicy Tuna option brings a lightly spicy tuna filling with Japanese mayonnaise.
The uramaki rolls offer more variety, including:
- California Roll
- Volcano Tuna Roll
- Bull Dog Roll
- Veggi Tropical Roll
The Bull Dog Roll is one of the more substantial choices, combining salmon, tempura prawns, avocado, tobiko, cream cheese and mango sauce. The Veggi Tropical Roll gives vegetarian diners a proper sushi option rather than an afterthought, with avocado, mango, shiimeji mushrooms, nori, cream cheese, black sesame and tropical sauce.
There are also meat and vegetable gyozas for anyone who wants to start with something warm before moving into the sushi.
Prices and dishes can change, so always check the Tabana Menu for the latest version before visiting.
A Better Choice When the Table Wants Different Things
The main reason Tabana works for sushi in Playa de Palma is simple. It gives the whole table options.
A sushi-only restaurant can be perfect when every person wants Japanese food. But groups do not always work like that. One person might want tuna tartare and a California roll, another may want seafood pasta, another may prefer grilled chicken, and someone else may be looking at the steak menu.
At Tabana, those choices can all sit on the same table.
Alongside the sushi, the menu includes dishes such as imperial beef carpaccio, salmon and passion fruit ceviche, steak tartare, crispy prawns, Iberian ham croquettes, grilled sea bass, white miso salmon, pasta, premium cuts of meat and desserts.
That makes it useful for couples with different tastes, groups of friends, birthdays and holiday dinners where nobody wants to spend ten minutes debating where to eat.

What to Order for a Sushi-Led Dinner
There is no single right order at Tabana, but a few combinations work especially well.
For two people who mainly want sushi, start with one tartare, add a couple of nigiri pieces and choose two different rolls. A California Roll and Spicy Tuna Futomaki give you familiar options, while the Bull Dog Roll adds something richer and more substantial.
For a mixed table, order one or two sushi dishes alongside gyozas, crispy prawns or croquettes. That gives everyone something to share before people move onto their own mains.
For a vegetarian guest, the Veggi Tropical Roll and vegetable gyozas give them more choice than just a side dish, while salads, pasta and vegetable-led main dishes offer further options elsewhere on the menu.
For a larger group, a mixture is usually the easiest route. Start with a few shared dishes, put several sushi rolls in the middle of the table, then let people choose a main if they want something more filling.
The best meals at Tabana tend to be the ones where the table orders across the menu instead of treating the evening like a standard three-course dinner.
Sushi, Dinner and Live Entertainment in One Evening
Tabana is not only somewhere to eat sushi in Playa de Palma. It is also built for people who want their dinner to be part of a bigger evening.
You can arrive for food, take your time with the menu and enjoy the live entertainment as the night develops around you. There is no need to rush through dinner because the evening does not end when the final dish arrives.
That makes Tabana a different option from a quick sushi meal or a standard restaurant reservation. It is useful for a date night, a holiday dinner, a birthday, a group night out or simply a table that wants good food before moving into drinks and music.

Is Tabana Suitable for Sushi-Loving Groups?
Yes. Tabana is particularly useful for groups where some guests want sushi and others do not.
The menu is broad enough for people to order different styles of food without making the group split into separate venues. You can have sushi fans ordering tartare, nigiri and rolls, while others choose meat, seafood, pasta, salads or sharing dishes.
That makes it a practical option for birthdays, holiday groups, double dates, celebrations and dinners before a night out in Playa de Palma.
If you are organising a larger table, it is worth booking ahead and mentioning the size of your group when you reserve.
Dietary Requirements and Allergies
The menu includes vegetarian dishes and several options that may suit different dietary preferences. However, ingredients and preparation matter, particularly with sushi, sauces, sesame, soy, seafood and gluten.
If anyone in your group has an allergy or dietary requirement, tell the team before ordering. The staff can then guide you through the available options and help you choose dishes more safely.
Do not rely on a blog post alone for allergy information. Always confirm directly with the restaurant when you arrive.
