    Bento Box
    Noel S.

    This small and lovely shop is the type of authenticity that is very hard to find. The owners were so kind and the food was phenomenal! Please try this place if you're in the area and want home cooked and delicious Japanese food that will leave you feeling great all day. I cannot recommend enough and I will be back asap!

    Salmon bento

    Got a salmon bento and it hit all the right notes! Great rice, tender salmon, tasty mixed pickles, and soft tamago. The kind of meal I'd eat every day.

    Great addition to Chop House Row! Very sweet owners and beautifully and lovingly prepared food. Love all the descriptions for the items they serve. The bento box is a perfect size for lunch, and the enzyme rice is delicious. Looking foward to returning and seeing what they add to the menu!

    The bentos here remind us of bentos back in Japan! Fumiyo (the owner) carefully explained every item. You can tell she has put alot of care into her food. The miso marinated egg, lotus root kimpira were two of our favorite items in the bento. Everything tasted very healthy and delicious. We look forward to visiting again!

    We were there late and the bento was sold out (great reason to return!) so we had onigiri.

    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!

    5 stars for food and 4 stars for services. I think they are doing good enough…read more Price is a bit on the high side but it's worth it for the food. Grill black cod miso fish is my favorite. Sashimi quality is good and fresh. This is my second time here and I will be back soon.

    Always love my ringo curry experience! This is our favorite "Japanese" style curry in Seattle. Nice…read morebold, and strong flavors with just the perfect blend of underlying spice in the one star as well as the two star. You don't need to go any spicier in my opinion. Great portions of omelette and protein! Rice is very fluffy and beds the curry perfectly. I tried this to go for the very first time, and it worked really well as well. I would recommend getting the Hamburg for to go, as katsu don't hit the same as eating freshly deep fried. But the Hamburg is also what I order when I eat in. Portions are rather large, so with kids, I split one large size and I add extra protein. We do katsu and hamburg. Very very very delicious! Always recommend. Even my picky Asian parents approved of it! Always first restaurant that comes in mind when we visit international district. Staff is also always kind and helpful and efficient.

Decent portions of rice lathered in sweet curry with the protein of your choice - not too shabby. A bit pricey in my opinion, but it does scratch that itch. My wife and I ordered both the pork and chicken cutlets with the curry and rice. Presentation of the food was on point, and there's enough for both the rice partnership and the cutlets for dipping purposes. The sweet and warm Japanese curry felt like a welcomed hug on a cold and brisk May afternoon. The biggest complaint was actually the cutlets - despite a nice crunch to it, something felt a little off. Like the cutlets were a bit old or were previously reheated or something. I had to drench each slice with curry to fully enjoy the meal. At the end of the day, two regular-sized curry dishes actually made us quite full and content. We left feeling stuffed and warm - the perfect combination for a chilly spring day. I would say this was a bit pricey for my liking, but what isn't pricey these days in this economy? Solid 4 stars!

    I want to clarify that I rate places based on how they compare to other similarly priced places,…read morenot necessarily compared to all other restaurants. For what this place is, I think it's great! The prices are really good considering all that you get and the quality of sushi is pretty good considering the price as well. I was pleasantly surprised to see their combos come with additional appetizers like the agadashi tofu, the salad with dressing choices, and miso soup. The chicken katsu definitely had more meat and a thinner layer of breading as an FYI. I ordered the sushi combo for 38 dollars and got great tasting sushi for that price. Overall, I'd recommend this place if you want somewhere casual with good options and little extra items mixed in with your meals. It's definitely not like Umi, or Shirros but you're also paying like 1/3 to 1/2 the price. I definitely see myself returning when I want a quick or convenient bite to eat (it's one block from my home).

My waitress gave me a warm towel to clean my hands and I appreciated the gesture. I ordered miso soup, a hand roll and one of their specialty sushi roll. Westlake roll: spicy California roll with sliced salmon and lemon red onion with mild mayo 5 pcs. Delicious, fresh and satisfying for me. 5/5 I also decided to get a hand roll and went with the Cajun salmon hand roll. The hand roll was made well, stuffed and fresh salmon. The sauce added a great flavor overall. 5/5 Service went well and staff were attentive the whole time I was there. It was busy and the staff kept up with the flow.

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.

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!
