“One of my favorite restaurants for over 5 years now! The owner, assuming he is, you’ll probably know who I’m talking about because he’s the most attentive one there and has the memory of a god haha, he’ll remember you and what you ordered for weeks, months, years! Even if you don’t come in for a month or so he’ll still remember you when you do and I’ve had him remember certain favorites of mine after months of not being able to come in! Super nice guy and reasonably priced food, I miss the conveyor belt so much though, but love this place!Wheelchair accessibility: I’ve come here with a walker before, they have bar seating at the ends and chairs can be moved out of the way to be able to sit in a wheelchair. I’ve sat in the booth and had my walker moved off to the side without an issue.“
“My wife and I are big fans of I love bentos, a teriyaki restaurant in Kirkland. We go there at least twice a month, and we are always satisfied with the food and the service. The food is fresh, tasty, and generous. We usually order to go, and the food is always enough for two meals. My go to plate is the spicy chicken and spicy beef teriyaki plate, which comes with rice and a salad. The meat is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is just the right amount of spicy. The salad is my favorite part, because of the dressing they use. It is creamy and tangy, and goes well with the greens.When we eat in, I like to get the bento boxes, because they have sushi as well. The sushi is made with quality ingredients, and the fish is fresh and delicious. The bento boxes also come with tempura, gyoza, and miso soup. They are a great deal for the price and the variety.The owners of I love bentos are really nice and friendly, and they always greet us with a smile. They make us feel welcome and appreciated. They also run the restaurant efficiently and cleanly. We never have to wait long for our food, and the place is always spotless.Pro tip: take in your own bag to save some money when ordering take out. They charge a small fee for their paper bags, but they are happy to pack your food in your own bag if you bring one.I love bentos is one of our favorite places to eat in Kirkland. We highly recommend it to anyone who loves teriyaki or Japanese food. It is a hidden gem that you will not regret trying.“
“Great service, food was delicious (bento box & sushi), came out fast and tasted fresh. Someone ordered the teriyaki and it looked and smelled really good (I will order this next time). I also ordered a customized roll and they did a perfect job, and the price was very reasonable. I will say there was Spanish music playing in the restaurant, that was weird.“
“We’ve coming here since Big fish open. It is a hidden gem. Very fresh sushi & reasonable price! I love some of the unique creative rolls like White tower, Lolipop. They also have kid friendly chopsticks, and my kid love the hand rolls.“
“This has been my go to sushi place for years. Service is great and the sushi is fresh. It's a pretty laid back and relaxed atmosphere. I recently started branching out to try other foods here (usually get the sushi combo platter) Latest I tried were these cold udon noodles you dip in sauce. Probably the bounciest noodles I've ever eaten. 10/10“
“Very nice and cozy dinning room with a sushi bar. Service was flawless.Menu was nice and all the rolls we ordered came out quick and looked BEAUTIFUL. My only complaint is the dishes lacked that umami flavor I really enjoy with Sushi and other Japanese dishes.Maybe I'm being picky, but there was a brown sauce that was poured on 4 of the 5 rolls we ordered that was extremely sweet. (I want to say it was Unagi but it was so sweet I wasn't sure)My favorite roll is typically "the Dragon roll" or Eel with Unagi and fish, I typically get one almost every time I go for sushi.I was shocked at how sweet it was, almost like they had used Oysters sauce in place of the Unagi. The first few bites were delicious but the sweetness kept building and eventually made the rolls sort of a chore to finish.I typically like more Salty, bold, Umami "yummy" flavored rolls so I was disappointed with these as I had to supplement every bite with left over gyoza sauce and the table soy sauce.My pallet is obviously not the final say in flavor but I would only recommend the Sushi Rolls if you like them in the sweeter side.We orderedGyoza (phenomenal filling and the sauce was perfect)Fire starter roll (the best one that tastes the most like clean fish sushi)Dragon roll (way to sweet)Crunchy roll (way to sweet)Salmon king roll (2nd best of the list)Spider roll (extremely bland unfortunately)Mizo soup was also very tasty.Over all it was still a delicious lunch, just a little to sweet for my preference.“
“The food was great. Quality and selection of sushi was great. Drink selection was also nice. Wish the server would have come back more often so we didn’t have to wave her down for more beer and wine refills and also the bill (it was not a busy Sunday evening,) she was often chatting with other staff members.“
“We had decent sashimi and pretty good seared cod, but nothing phenomenal, especially for the price and location. The super heavy and tall front door is something of a deterrent. The service was okay, but the prices are high for what they seem to be aiming for here. We walked in on a Thursday evening and it was super quiet even though they asked if we had a reservation. For a more enjoyable authentic dining experience, Izumi, across the highway is still our mainstay for special meals.Kid-friendliness: There are no high chairs here.“
“I saw the reviews and had to try this place out. I was not impressed with the menu since it has only the basic fish. The fish was fresh and tasted good, but not great. The price was a bit outrageous for the portions they provided. However, you have to try it once to know it.“
“It was nice when you used to be able to walk-in, but for good reason SKT has grown in popularity so I would recommend to always book a reservation or you may not get a table. It has a great mix of traditional sushi items, as well as unique offerings that we can't find elsewhere. We used to always order à la carte but recently tried the omakase and the slight variations are awesome.“
“Even though I have been blessed to have had numerous epic meals, the dining experience at LTD Edition Sushi is easily one of the five best dining experiences of my life and maybe even the absolute best ever.The food is both creative and exceptionally prepared with the highest quality ingredients, the service is seamless and as friendly or unobtrusive as you want it to be, and the ambience (sitting at the sushi bar) is jovial and more akin to eating and drinking in a dear friend's kitchen than at a fancy restaurant.While the price is high ($277, including the very generous sake pairing), it is not an expensive meal, as a night at LTD Edition Sushi is one of the best fine dining values that you can find anywhere.“
“This was a birthday meal for my son so I really wanted this to be a great selection. We were not disappointed! We were greeted by the chef's in the prep area as soon as we walked through the door. The front dining room is not very large but we didn't feel cramped at all. We had reservations and waited about 5 minutes to get seated. The atmosphere here was not stodgy or too quiet and made for comfortable conversation at our table. We ordered the flat fee Chef's Choice Sushi Course, which is a 5 course, 19 piece meal. Presentation, flavors, selection...it was awesome! Paired with good sake', it cannot be beat! (See pics) Our waitress was extremely pleasant and explained the pieces in the meal at each delivery...I wish I remembered her name to give a shout out, sorry. The area where this restaurant is located isn't bad but parking will be tough as this area has a number of dinner establishments. Figure out where the parking is ahead of time. We actually walked from Queen Anne area. I highly recommend Shiro's and will be back next time I'm in town!Parking: Plan ahead depending on time of meal“
“Delicious rolls and noodles! 12th Ave roll and the yakisoba noodles were amazing and definitely a favorite from our group. The noodles were spicy and very flavorful. The 12th Ave roll was delicious with shrimp tempura and spicy tuna. We also ordered the Madison roll but weren’t huge fans of it. Other things we ordered were the miso soup, rainbow roll, and the crunchy cali roll. Service was great and the food came out fast. We also ordered the jasmine tea and hibiscus berry tea. The center garden area in the restaurant is beautiful and the overall ambiance is very calm and inviting. Overall a great dinner!“
“Very excited to have this place in my neighborhood. Sushi on Capitol Hill has become hit and miss. Have been twice, both times extremely happy with the food and service. I hope they stay for years to come!Dietary restrictions: Very friendly and helpful when speaking about dietary restrictions, even though it was busy.“
“Cozy japanese restaurant! This place was a great meal with some great traditional atmosphere. I got the Variety Ozen for myself and the ika maru-yaki & the black cod collar miso to share.All were really good, but my favorite was the black cod collar miso. The texture was very soft and flaky and the flavor was on point.“
“I have been dying to come here and let me tell you the entire place does not disappoint!! The food was sooooooo tasty and look so good at the same time. The portion size is super generous. The inside of the this place is absolutely adorable. And the workers are super gentle. I had such a good time here. This is going to be on my " must come back " list“
“A wonderful omakase experience. First and foremost, the food was excellent! But everything else was amazing too. The staff, the ambiance, the sake - all great. Our evening was reminiscent of some of our favorite meals in small restaurants in Japan.“
“Rondo was amazing. Went for lunch and had an interesting bento box. I can't remember the name as it was on the lunch special menu, but had 6 sashimi, mini hamburger patty, bolognese sauce over rice, and a couple more items. It sounds a little weird but was really awesome! The quality of the sashimi in the bento box and in an appetizer ordered was extremely high!Another review mentioned the bento box being served in a plastic tray even though it was dine-in. This is true, but definitely not something that I think had a negative aspect at all (and it's a nice tray) and matches the vibe of the restaurant, it's an izakaya not a formal dining room. Thoroughly recommend!“
“First time for us here, celebrating our 3rd anniversary of meeting. Excellent food, service, and prices. No reservations in a really popular venue, so plan for a slight wait. Staff is awesome, and explained dishes we weren't familiar with.? The venue is noisy, so don't expect a subdued, intimate experience. We'll definitely be back!“
“I had the omakase dinner here and overall my experience was really great. I highly recommend it for anyone who has an appreciation for fine sushi would like to experience an excellent and unique dining experience.More specifics: So the fish was fantastic and the preparations were very good. This isn't the best sushi that I've had, with the focus being more about the toppings on the nigiri than on treatment of the fish itself, but this is a choice that the restaurant makes and it is absolutely a valid approach. I can't fault the strategy because in the end the taste was wonderful so they can't be faulted for their choice here.The service was really good, if not Michelin-star level. The night that I went there were nine people dining, with at least 4 chefs and the restaurant manager serving. The beverage service was a little chaotic as they attempt to take everyone's drink orders at once and don't explain things very well. This, for me, is the only sub-par aspect my dining experience.The omakase course service was very well done, with preparation done right in front of us, with easy viewing of all the prep work, which is fun if you like that sort of thing (which I do). All of the chefs were very interactive with the diners, explaining each dish, and talking with people individually or as a group throughout the entire service. There was also a lot of discussion and banter between diners, or with other diners and the chefs, altogether. The atmosphere that makes this possible is the intimate space that they use and the way that the room is setup. And for most foodies, this kind of communal dining, with discussion about the food while sharing in the experience, is exactly what we want. So this was wonderful.My final thoughts are that this is a really good experience, unique in a lot of ways, fun, social, and a very high level of culinary expertise on hand. I would definitely consider returning.“
“Lovely staff, outstanding cocktails, and superb sushi with a kitchen that is open fairly late. I have celiac disease and the gluten free menu is quite extensive. I've never had an issue here. They can do takeout when the place isn't too busy, but take the time to sit down if you can.Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free options! I'm sensitive to cross contamination, and have done well here.“
“Good meal. Service was very good. I was hoping I could say “great”, but when compared to other experiences at places like Sawada, Kyubey, Yasuda, Nakazawa, etc, it’s just ok. Don’t get me wrong - we enjoyed ourselves but it was overpriced when compared to the greats.“
“This was hands down the best nigiri and kaiseki I've had, even compared to the high end sushi restaurants in Japan it's that good.Dining here feels like I was back in Japan eating sushi at the sushi bars, the table, layout, and size are all the same. And the fish was amazing. Some of my highlights were the smoked fish, smoked krab rice, fatty tuna, and the wagyu beef teriyaki was delicious, very Seattle.It is on the expensive side and hard to get but well worth it if you want some of the best fish in your life.Parking: Hard to find parking on cap hill so bus, train, or Uber if possible.“
“I came to know this place for the Peruvian food, but I was delighted with the sushi, after having visited several Japanese restaurants, I chose this place, it is incredible, the attention given by the waitress Lorena was very special, my wife and I were delighted, I I recommend 100%“
“I really appreciated the variety and uniqueness of their menu here, especially the starters and signature sashimi. Our highlights were scallop-uni with yuzu sesame and seared salmon with truffle ponzu but other dishes we ordered were also good and there were so many more on the menu I'd like to try so definitely will be returning! Efficient service and attentive staff. Clean & minimalistic ambiance. Highly recommended!“
“SERVICE: immediately met by friendly hellos and warm greetings. very nice throughout the whole ordering process and extremely helpful. FOOD: to start i ordered a taro boba tea and my boyfriend ordered a wintermelon tea with rainbow jelly. both drinks were really good, and the rainbow jelly was super tasty. the taro boba always slaps. i ordered a chicken pho with mushrooms and tofu; the broth was good and super flavorful. my partner got tonkotsu ramen, he said the broth was very savory, the pork was fatty and delicious, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. he wanted it a little spicier so he added chili oil to the broth which he said made it amazing! AMBIANCE: its a very cozy atmosphere and is a perfect place for students to come and grab a quick bite. PRICE: reasonably priced for seattle food. LOCATION: amazing location for seattleu students, its on the corner of a busy street with a decent amount of foot traffic and is easy to get to. GENERAL OPNION: we love this place, and we have been going to this place since 2022, the food has always been superb and the boba is always amazing. its a go to spot that we recommend to everyone who visits the area.“
“Another reels recommendation. Cash and Venmo onlyWe live in issaquah so this place is quite the trek. My partner was particularly drawn in by the oversized roll with a variety of fish.Maybe I picked the wrong menu items, but overall not sure what the hype is about. The oversized roll is 30$+ so it’s not like it’s cheaper on a per serving basis.The fish was also so cold to the point where it hurt my teeth to eat (I do have sensitive teeth, but I’ve never had trouble with sushi before). Having so many different fish in a roll meant I couldn’t actually taste the individual flavors very well. I’m also not a fan of raw green onions paired with sushi.The other rolls also weren’t anything special. We got a scallop nigiri which was good tho.Overall probably won’t be driving an hour to come here again.“
“Food was fresh miso soup some of the best I've had and I usually don't care for it. We had two rolls, and it was a lot of food. I found it to be kind of pricey, but good quality food and a lot of it. the restaurant itself is a little dark and hard. It didn't feel like a sushi place but I gave it four stars because the food really was outstanding.“
“I've been here twice now. I ordered the combo with spicy chicken teriyaki, noodles and egg rolls. The spicy chicken teriyaki was really good, the noodles also good. Complimentary soup was good. You can also get Complimentary Jasmine green tea ?. Good service, nice and clean bathroom. Overall great and it will be my new go to teriyaki place in Woodinville.“
“As a sushi lover, I was so happy about the quality of seafood of the three rolls I tried. I went out of my comfort zone and tried a dish called "chawanmushi" and it was so good! The staff were friendly and knowledgable and the restaurant had a warm vibe. I will return and bring others!“
“Little loud. Great sushi for the price. Easy to seat 2 people quickly, small wait for a table if you have more people. Very friendly staff. Vegan and gluten free options. I visit every 2 weeks when I get my paycheck.Vegetarian options: Vegan optionsDietary restrictions: Gluten free options“
“great value, super yummy food - highly recommend! The workers are super friendly and the self serve bar was easy/fast. I stopped by here during my trip to Seattle and was so happy I did! We ended up spending only about $17 for 12 peices total. I really wish this restaurant had more locations!!“
“The Kudedon Bowl was quite amazing. It has Salmon, Albacore Tuna, grilled eel, shrimp, Tuna , and Ikura(orange roe) along with some shiitake mushrooms, greens on a bed of sushi rice. The staff was friendly and quick with the order. The place is in the lobby of one of the building in 4th Ave in Downtown Seattle so be prepared to either take it to go or sit on the lobby sofa or some of the stool by the main doors to the building. That said, don't be deterred by that, the food is worth it. Enjoy!“
“Huge props to Chef Johnny! Experience with him specifically was amazing and the food was tasty. Our favorite was the seared king salmon sashimi and unagi hand roll. Unfortunately the waitress we had must have been having a terrible day or something bc her attitude was terrible. The hostess we first spoke with was very nice and upbeat, and another waitress seemed normal, but our main assigned waitress just seemed annoyed and pissed off, and was not attentive or very nice so we felt better talking to other waitress than our own. I hope it was just a bad day and not how she is all the time because she really brought the vibe down compared to the rest of the staff and experience.“
“Sugo hand roll. Thank you for the experience. Waitstaff welcomed us and was really helpful when ordering. Ordered the salmon sashimi, scallop hand roll, salmon hand roll, and spicy tuna hand roll and they were all bursting with flavors. Chef Johnny- Thank you for the amazing hospitality. Your communication and professionalism really stood out and made my group of 5 feel really welcomed. Sugo will be a spot I recommend to anyone visiting and asking me for advice. Exceptional service and freshest of the fresh seafood. Don't forget the sake flight! Thanks Chef Johnny. You've raised the hand roll bar to a higher standard in my eyes.“
“Food was amazing. I had a sushi date with a couple friends and we came hungry, we ordered takoyaki, gyoza, 7 rolls, and some sake and it all was delicious.Service was really nice, place is clean, it is a bit small and seating is close together, it is what it is though.“
“The grilling, freshness, juiciness, and teriyaki sauce of the chicken were excellent.It was nice that Korean-style chicken was made and sold separately from breast, tai, and wings, so you could taste different flavors.It seems like it was a godsend that there was rice cake in it.. hahaThe taste and service are top notch!A home that is sure to be visited again!“
“Possibly the best meal of my life. We dined omakase and left full and very satisfied. The cook and server were very attentive and friendly, and clearly had fun along with the customers. The food was a wonderful blend of straightforward servings of high quality fish and some more adventurous and surprising dishes such as cod milt and a yuzu scallop. Truly one to remember and I can't recommend it highly enough.“
“Bamboo sushi is a staple for date nights and great place to enjoy both fresh sashimi snd prepared roles. We tell people to get the green machine and rainbow roles. The hoki poki box entree is amazing. The miso soup and the edamame are great starters. Last time we were in we tried the Chirashi bowl as well which was great. The service at the bar is really quick and although we haven’t indulged, I hear their cocktails are good as well.Vegetarian options: There are multiple tasty roles and other dishes served without meat or animal products.Dietary restrictions: They will ask at the beginning of the meal and they will accommodate as necessary.Parking: There are multiple free parking lots and parking garages in the area.Kid-friendliness: This is a kid friendly establishment.Wheelchair accessibility: University place and the surrounding restaurants are all wheelchair accessible.“
“What a pleasant surprise to find in the Lower First Hill scene! Really awesome happy hour selection and deal with an intimate yet inviting vibe. Good quality sushi considering the price and a wide selection of non sushi items. Definitely recommend the Baked Salmon roll!“
“WOW. To find this amazing line up of creative sushi dishes at the quality and price Wasabi has in Capitol Hill?! I'm shocked I haven't eaten here every day since they opened. Cannot recommend this place more for all your sushi cravings “
“Great food and ambience, super friendly staff. I wish the kitchen paid attention to specifics of the order, I specifically asked to not have a condiment on my dishes and all of it came with it. That said the food is high quality.Dietary restrictions: Be clear if you have dietary restrictions, double check your order on arrival.“
“As far as sushi options at this price point go in Bellevue this is a great spot. I prefer this to japonessa or kobe around the same price point. High quality rolls - ordered spider, unagi, and spicy hamachi, all very good and well rolled. Would order all 3 again. It's not top tier sushi and isn't priced like it, I found a lot of value at the price point.“
“I had the lunch special of Chili and Basil, the service was swift and very friendly, the food and atmosphere was equally enjoyable! It’s also quite fairly priced considering the location! I would highly recommend this restaurant for lunch, or even for catering! The noodles are a palette cleanser, so they’re meant to be a mild flavor, which does wonders for enjoying the meal to its fullest! I’ll be having my lunches here from now on! Thank you for the wonderful service Ti22!“
“This is our go to for teriyaki, only done takeout cuz it’s a easy dinner/lunch on a work day. Best bang for your buck with decent quality food.For $16 you get teriyaki/katsu with salad, 4 pieces of California roll and side of tempura plus miso soup! When pho prices are $12~18 nowadays, this place is GREAT value. The people who works there are always nice and work quickly.“
“The inside is like mixing up between jazz vinyl and traditional Japanese restaurant theme. The light is quite dim, and the overall feeling is unique (or distracted?).I like the raw fishes they served. I would like to try pieces of sushi next time.Tempura is okay. Not that great but not that bad neither.Udon is pretty...different than usual flavor. It's more like seafood-ish which is from bonito broth according to their description. I didn't like that much personally.“
“Sushi chef made polite conversation and the servers checked in on me often in a friendly polite manner.At first I hesitated to get the rice with my chirashi bowl. But so glad I did, it was just as delicious as all of the raw plump fishes. Sooo yummy and delicious.“
“This is a great little spot for affordable quality sushi! One thing to note that it IS takeout only so if you are looking for a fine dining experience, this isn't it. I was on a business trip and ordered delivery to my hotel - it arrived neatly packaged, beautiful presentation, and very fresh. After reading some reviews, I was worried about potentially hard rice but my experience was the complete opposite! I tried out the Maki Quattro (spicy tuna, spicy salmon, albacore, and tuna) and the Blossom Box. Typically, I am a tuna girlie but this time the salmon really was the shining star in my two meals! It was extremely affordable, but not questionable sushi, and they really make your takeout experience one to savor. The one thing I was not a fan of is that there is a smoky-sweet aftertaste to their spicy tuna... which I was disappointed by because I love spicy tuna. When I return to Seattle, I will definitely be trying out other items on the menu, but skipping the tuna.“
“Our favorite meal in the PNW, by far. Reviews were great, so we went for it. It's definitely a place that would be busy on the weekends, so we went on a Monday.I've eaten some great sushi in several cities, but this was the most flavorful fish I've ever had. It all melted in your mouth with a buttery softness. Pieces that had tempura batter were scrumptious. We only had 1 dinner night in Seattle. Otherwise, we would have been back for sure.The server was attentive but knew when to let us do our thing. Terrific service overall and the food came out in a timely manner.Sushi can be expensive, but this place was fairly priced (low for its quality). Little corner place near Cherry Hill and Seattle University.Vegetarian options: Several rolls with all veggie options. The sweet potato roll was so good and simple.“
“We four had dinner and drinks; two among our party live nearby and are regulars. I really enjoyed the Bibimbap I ordered with beer!BEER/WINE: 4.0. Good selection of beers, and limited but decent wines. We were all satisfied with our choices of beers and wines.FOOD: 4.0.- Bibimbap: 4.5. A real standout and I will order again. I hadn't had Bibimbap this good since living in Hawaii and Guam. I chose to have with Tofu, though beef is also available. Especially good with a cold beer.- Sashimi: 3.5. The Japanese person in our group rated her DELUXE DINNER as quite good for previously-frozen fish, and says she would order it again. I ordered one tako sashimi and would rate it a 2.5; in future I won't order individual sashimi.SERVICE: 3.5. Enthusiastic and accurate.AMBIANCE: 4.0. Indoor and some outdoor seating. It became quite full by 6pm on the Friday we visited (with a full parking lot), but never got so noisy that we couldn't easily carry on a conversation.“
