“Kizuki's Renton location is cute and cozy, with amazing food and great service. There's also a pick up window for convenient online ordering. The ramen was incredible with a rich broth and perfectly cooked tonkatsu, the matcha cold brew was spectacular, and the food was ready quite quickly. Kizuki definitely has some of the most authentic ramen, and they even have locations in Japan!“
“Sat at a booth, there wasn't really a way to "order" from the menu. The servers only really asked about drinks.Loved the music, I grew up on Maui and ate Genki in the Maui Mall all the time, they kept playing Hawaiian music was a great atmosphere.The food was great, my garlic salmon nigiri was not torched enough but the rest of the seared sushi was done perfectly.Parking: GPS takes you to the back of the restaurantKid-friendliness: Patient and kind with the kiddos“
“The fried chicken is the best Asian fried chicken in existence! It's so crunchy, flavorful, and amazing. The ramen I got was mala and black garlic with mala spice both 3/5 spicy. I really think they were good I don't particularly like the numbing feeling in moith“
“Yummy! I got the vegan one and it was still super flavorful. I went on a Monday and it was empty since we had just beat the crowd, but got a little busier once we left. Absolutely want to come again already. I can understand the hype.Extra spicy was not that spicy.“

“We enjoy dining here, particularly my teen daughter who always loves to order the Karaage salad. There was no wait on Tuesday night so we were seated right away. Tonight I tried the Japanese curry with karaage and rice. Both were very good and it is very filling. My husband had the chicken shio ramen. Any ramen can be ordered regular or low sodium. There were 2 waitresses tonight. Both served us but we did have to get their attention a couple times for requests. We enjoy their karaage very much because it is crispy, well seasoned and each piece is quite large. Parking spaces can be tight but are plentiful if you are willing to walk.“
“Solid place to get ramen! The wait wasn't too bad, despite being extra busy due to the anime convention the last weekend of March. The staff is very friendly, attentive, and great at checking up on us. The food was just okay, which is why I deducted one star, at least for the vegetarian ramen. I was surprised that their fancy fruity and boba drinks were served in the same water cups we were given! That was a bit of a turn-off, I must confess, lol. Overall, not bad to satisfy any ramen cravings, but I have definitely had better. My sister said the same about her meat ramen--good but not out of this world amazing. I suggest you still stop by and try it yourself!“
“My grandsons say this is the best food they have ever eaten in their whole life. The fried chicken was perfectly crisp yet perfectly moist; the short ribs were exquisite; the pot stickers and sushi were great. We loved our flavors, food, and experience and will always come back. One grandson says he would take a plane from anywhere in the world just to come back here.“
“I got the vegan hybrid ramen since I don't eat pork (pork is in all the broth of the normal ramen). Thankfully their menu is very clear about broth base.Ramen was meh. I like Danbo's vegan ramen much more personally. I didn't find there to be that much flavor in this ramen. I appreciated that our server brought us some spice to add to our ramen though. And the karaage that you can get for $6 with your ramen was sooo good. Probably best karaage I've had in Seattle.The vibes in here were nice and our servers were kind.“

“We went here for a late lunch last week. We were immediately seated. Server was attentive and nice. We got the miso ramen, tempura rice bowl, the spinach gomae, the chilled tofu, chicken karaage, and edamame. The food came out relatively fast. My son loves this place, and he said that this place did not disappoint. My husband and I are don’t like ramen that much, so we got the side dishes. The food was good, however it was very salty and filling, especially the tempura rice bowl, that we did not eat dinner. Overall, nice place if you’re craving Japanese food at on the mall, but if you don’t like salty food, this place may not be for you.“
“Our favorite Japanese restaurant on the east side. Some of our favorite items include the kabocha fried rice, chicken katsu dinner, mackerel / saba, albacore tataki salad, any of the sushi and tempura. It can get busy here for dinner on the weekend, so I suggest reservations.“
“Ramen and Teriyaki, you already know this place isn't going to be specialized in anything... but this place gets a 4 star from me due to convenience, fast, good service (its order yourself on tablet, then find your own seat), and value, value, value of food! Wow! You need to check out the portions on these teriyaki plates! Defintiely good for sharing. I had the spicy pork and beef bulgogi. Both was good in flavor, and still moist. Rice wasn't fluffy but it did its job. Comes with a great serving of the common lettuce salad and dressings and a small side of macaroni. Tasted great for a regular teriyaki place. My plate was $15.99! Very reasonable. Priced higher because I got the split option. My husband got the spicy chicken teriyaki for $12.99! What a deal!! Portions was just as huge. I tried the chicken, and it was a bit dry for my liking, but my husband said it's the Seattle way! And that it was how he liked it. Haha My kids got ramen! Their bowls were huge! Of course I tried it and it didn't pass my ramen standards as predicted. But my kids still loved it! It tasted not too bad for a non-dedicated ramen restaurant. Glad we got to try this place. Quick and easy meal. Very tasty. And oh so affordable. Sometimes you just need that!“
“My brother and I took our sister to Wasabi for her birthday based on a recommendation from the staff from Chihuly Garden and Glass and we’re so glad we went. Incredible atmosphere, amazing food in great portions and our server Jennie was attentive, kind and really made our experience feel curated and bespoke. We didn’t have to wait long for any food or drinks and we loved how easy it was to order and how many great options they had on their happy hour menu. Can’t wait to take my man here on date night.“

“Went there around 4pm Saturday but couldn’t find any parking for about 15 minutes. So we parked over the Downtown park.It was cute small place where you can eat variety of ramens, appetizers, and Japanese teas and soft drinks. They offer ramen combos too.We tried the most popular ramen- Shio and Shoyu. Shoyu is our favorite. Regular sized ramen comes with 2 slices of pork, and the small one comes with a slice of pork. Wish Ramen places had more meats in the ramens.Kid-friendliness: They offer kids menu“
“Super delicious food. The presentation and taste of the pork bun was absolutely great. There are two different versions of ramen, thin noodles and slightly thicker ones. Even if the court prescribes a variant, you can ask whether you can swap it. The atmosphere is very pleasant. If I lived nearby, I would definitely come here more often.“
“A hidden restaurant on the 2nd floor with excellent service and decent food. When we got it on a Friday evening it was relatively empty.I ordered the "Yakibuta Chahan" and "Spicy Cheese Fries." The chahan had a light flavor and you could taste mostly chicken + onion. The spicy cheese fries tasted like fries and cheese with a mild spice.What stood out to me was the service. They went out of their way to chitchat and regularly checked-in on us during the meals. It felt really welcoming.“
“Great food in a humbly sized, unassuming looking restaurant. Everyone was friendly and timely providing service. Best vegan ramen I have had since moving to Seattle. Absolutely worth checking out if you’re in the area, I look forward to returning.“
“Arashi is my go to ramen spot so far in WA. I have tried quite a few places here and I've had ramen in Japan and Hawaii. I would say Arashi is the most on par with the better of ramens I've had. It's my go to spot whether alone or with people for a cold day. The Ballard location is hard to find parking and quite small so I like this location in terms of parking and size. The main con is definitely how pricey it is for noodles. It's at-least around $20 a person but that garlic broth is just the best so far.“
“Out of town from Oregon and decided to give this place a try. Parking was insane cause it was Valentine's Day so I had to drive around for 30ish min to find a spot nearby.The food was incredible. Well worth the wait! The waiter was super nice and extremely fast. I will so be coming back! ?“
“I ordered the tsukemen and the broth I was looking forward to, was very oily, didn't have any flavor; basically oily water. My husband ordered the tantanmen which he said that he enjoyed the broth and meat, but the noodles were chewy and not slurpable. Our waiter was amazing and at no fault for the way the food tasted.“
“Order the shrimp fried rice and the keso karaage.The size of thay shrimp fried rice was amazing ! ? The only downside was the undercooked shrimp but everything was perfect. I highly recommend checking Shibu Ramen out.Another thing is their Ship Ramen.“
“Great place, the air hockey table is a great touch and the decor is very interesting! Drinks tasted good and were made quickly, and it was a great place to chat with a few friends! I had a Hong Kong lemon tea and can definitely recommend it!“
