I made a…read morereservation a month prior to make sure we could sit at the bar top, as it was for a special occasion. Their staff was friendly and extremely attentive as they refilled our drinks several times, and if we left the table they would refold our napkin before we returned. The food was out of this world. The chefs were extremely knowledgeable on their craft and educated us before each course. My personal favorite was the fatty tuna courses. I loved experiencing this restaurant from the bar top and watching the chefs do their craft. It is a pricey meal for sure but was one of the best experiences and well worth it!

We got the Restaurant Week's set menu and the quality was pretty good for $65/person. I did notice not all the fish were as fresh as I'd like since we didn't get the chef's menu. Overall, it was worth trying out if you haven't been here. Definitely more affordable than the omakases at other places.

Where can you get a good 5 piece sashimi appetizer for $10? There are 2 HH times (4-6p and 10p-12a) Highly recommend HH: -sashimi -garlic short ribs -crispy calamari -Seattle roll Love the indoor lush patio dining ambiance. Our server was also very friendly and accommodating with our big group. He even gave us the 3 desserts on the house for our 3 bday celebrants! We left stuffed and happy - the next day we were already talking about coming back.

It was more apparent trying the sashimi, as sauces and other ingredients hide the quality of the fish. Some of the rolls were also surprisingly spicy (I have a medium tolerance level), which makes it harder for a group to enjoy with different levels of tolerance.

The best part is the complimentary edamame with flaky salt. I'd come back for this detail alone. The setting inside is nice and bright, and the servers are very friendly. You'll probably want to make a reservation to be on the safe side because the restaurant isn't very large.

Steve and I got out of a movie in Seattle a few weeks ago and it was on the threshold (seems like…read morewe are always there) where it was late enough that quite a few restaurants were closing which left a few still open with later hours. Momiji was one of those and it was extremely close to the movie theater we were walking out of. Sushi sounded great so we strolled over to get some. The sushi didn't disappoint... not in the slightest! We got some specialty rolls off of that portion of the menu and they were so very good! Fresh and extremely flavorful! Moonraker was one of the rolls we got. I highly recommend it! In addition to that we got an order of the Spicy Tofu... again delicious and made an excellent side with our sushi! I got a hard alcohol I wasn't used to getting. It was fun and it was quite good! It was Shochu which is a distilled beverage and involves sweet potato. If memory serves I got the one with sweet potato and pear. Very different but very good. It had a nice dryness to it. To wrap it all up we got some deep fried mochi ice cream. It held up nicely to being a great finish to a very high quality meal. We are definitely coming back!

Off the HH menu, the Laughing Buddha roll was incredible--I loved the combination of picked vegetables with the mango shiso sauce. It was a fresh and uplifting addition to our order. Service here was lovely. Our server was attentive and friendly, and made sure we had enough water and sake.

My favorites were: - Bad Boy - Crunchy and fried, delicious sauce - Ginger chicken - Very flavorful and nicely cooked - Short ribs - good flavor, nicely cooked - calamari - good, hard to go wrong! Everything was fresh, but most of the others rolls had cucumber or something else that made for a crispy texture, which is why they didn't make the favorites list. I also ordered a strawberry lemonade, which was decent, and a passion fruit lemonade, which was great. I'm sure I'll be back next time I'm in town!

I ordered that along with the spicy tuna on crispy sushi rice and a sake. The chirashi was a standout--loaded with sweet shrimp, wagyu beef, uni, and a generous variety of fresh seafood. The spicy tuna crispy rice was also solid, with a really interesting, flavorful twist. The vibe (as you can see in the photos) is warm and inviting, with an open kitchen that adds to the experience. Service was friendly and quick, which made everything even better. Highly recommend if you're in the neighborhood.

My favorite selection is actually the nigiri near the end of the line (especially the buttery seared salmon). One time, we were lucky enough to come when they had blue fin tuna nigiri that was very good. They always have a small line that moves very quickly and they replenish everything fresh and have such good foot-traffic that I'm never concerned. On the side, they have serve yourself spicy mayo, wasabi, ginger, soy sauce, etc. which makes it very convenient for both dine in and take out. Fast casual and really high quality for what it is. Such a gem.

My partner and I can stuff our faces with a large box here for just over 30 dollars. They are prone to have a line at dinner time and even off hours on the weekend though. Plus, there is no parking in the area so your best bet is to park by the H Mart or by Bellevue Square before walking over. Seating isn't the most plentiful and it's first come first serve where you bus your own items. Haven't been lucky enough to swing by while their miso soup machine was working, but they do offer complementary sauces (spicy mayo, unagi sauce, soy sauce, ginger, wasabi, and plastic gloves for those who prefer eating with their hands. Tip: all the rolls are placed at the front of the selection so make sure you save enough room for the salmon belly nigiri at the very end. Honestly, even though I know the rolls are a bit of a trap, their rolls are pretty tasty still and you really can't go wrong. Really strong 4 stars.

My local friends recommended we come here for some authentic Japanese food while we were visiting…read more We texted ahead to reserve a table for 5 since it is a popular place. They don't take phone calls or reservations online - very old school. Which I think makes it more desirable. We ended up getting a special room with a "chabudai" style table! I was super excited because I've never experienced it before. What I did find pleasant was that although it was a lower table, there was an opening beneath the table that allowed your legs to hang rather than having to sit Indian style. Tyson was an amazing server. Was attentive, accommodated our allergies and was thoughtful with us having a young child. He was so pleasant and polite! We enjoyed the following: Baked miso glazed eggplant - YUM and melts in your mouth. Black Miso Cod Collar - this was pleasantly surprising and so delicious. Eat bite was tender and flavorful. Simple yet so appetizing. Sushi rolls were both fresh and well prepared. The nigiri was also great and fresh- not fishy. We additionally ordered takoyaki - which I normally don't love but this one was very tasty and I enjoyed the texture. Lastly karage chicken which came with a creamy slaw. Overall it was such a pleasant experience and we look forward to coming back!
