Not bad sushi and okay pricing. Not super cheap but cheaper than other sushi I've had in the area. It's nice you can try a variety of sushi vs getting one entire roll of one thing. It didn't taste super fresh. They do change out the rolls if it's been a while but who knows when that is. Since it sits there, the sushi is lukewarm. I like that they have a little bar where you can help yourself to the condiments like soy sauce, wasabi and ginger. They even offer eel sauce and spicy mayo I think. The pieces I didn't like were the pressed sushi and the tofu skin ones. The rest were fine. Not sure if I'd go back though. I think I'd like something fresher and not so lukewarm.
$15.99 Sushi by the pound. We didn't care for the rolls and basically just did nigiri. It's a good option if you want a quick lunch option and want variety. Pieces are quite large but the quality of fish was alright.
Great concept for sushi by the pound! Everything was fresh, delicious, and ready incredibly fast. It was such a convenient option, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality. We'll definitely be back!
FOB Sushi Bar has been living rent-free in my head ever since I first visited about two years ago. I finally made it back to Seattle this month and knew I had to stop by again! FOB is a build-your-own sushi spot so instead of ordering from a menu, you grab a takeout box (either a tray or large box), pick up a pair of tongs, walk down the sushi line, choose whatever catches your eye, then weigh and pay. It's currently around $15 per pound, and filling up one of the larger boxes usually costs me a little over $30, depending on what I pick. One thing I noticed this visit is that the price has definitely gone up since my first trip. I was also tempted by the giant inari nigiri so selected a few to bring home, but found out that it turned out to be mostly rice with just a little fish on top so I'm thinking next time, I'll probably stick more with the sushi rolls or smaller nigiri since they felt like the better value. The selection is HUGE though: sushi rolls, nigiri, gunkan, etc. The only negative for me is how fast-paced the experience feels. Every time I've visited (I guess just twice so far), the line has been packed and practically out the door, so there's not much time to stand there by the actual sushi bar and browse your options, especially since the shop is small and tight with the cluster of customers (you're literally standing inches away from each other). You're basically moving along with everyone else and making quick decisions as you go. I understand it keeps the line moving, but I personally prefer having a little more time to look. However, I did notice that the staff is constantly replenishing the options and keeping everything clean, so nothing seems to sit out for long. The fish tastes fresh, clean, and never fishy, and the texture is just right. Seating inside is pretty limited, so it's mostly a takeout spot. I have taken my box back to my hotel to enjoy in solitude (when I travelled to Seattle) or take it home to share with my kid (50+ mile drive since I recently moved to WA, but still tastes yummy after the ride). I also noticed plenty of people enjoying their sushi on the steps outside. Regarding price, my box usually ends up costing about the same as ordering about two specialty sushi rolls elsewhere, but being able to mix and match a variety of different pieces makes it a fun experience, especially since their rolls are creative, delicious, and worth trying. If you're a sushi lover (or even just looking to try a variety of sushi in one meal), I definitely recommend checking out FOB Sushi Bar!
Very straightforward process. There is a buffet line for sushi when you walk in. You start with choosing the size of container you want, and then go down the line with tongs to select your sushi. The staff was attentive and refilled the sushis as they were being selected, nothing was low. The sushi all looked fresh and there was a good variety. At the register, the food is weighed by pound. Sauces are at the side with utensils and forks. Really good deal for sushi! Would gladly visit often.
My fiancé and I were walking by, when we saw a lot of people ordering and eating outside of FOB sushi bar. It caused us to go check out what the commotion was about. This place is made for takeout. They charge you by the pound! You can pick out what sushi inari you want or sushi rolls. You weigh it on the scale, and then grab your condiments. As avid sushi goers, we were skeptical so we only tried two inari pieces: a mix of salmon/tuna and a separate spicy salmon. Needless to say, don't go here if you know your sushi. It is only worth it if you are really hungry and want something quick. This is cheap sushi and cheap fish. Not quality. For two pieces, I paid $8. Devastating.
Fun, modern-looking, cafeteria style sushi bar with a good range of rolls and selected nigiri where you pick the size of your box or tray, grab tongs and select away as you move down the line. The team are constantly refilling the trays of sushi and it's best to come when it's busy so that the sushi turnover is fast, and the fish is fresh. You finish at the cashier where you pay by weight ($15.99 per lb on our visit in June 2026), the head to the condiment area to grab pickled ginger, wasabi, unagi sauce, spicy mayo, packets of soy sauce, utensils, napkins, and water cups. There are a modest number of counter seats inside and several tables outside, so you can eat in, but the place was really built for fast, customizable takeout sushi. Our group liked the quality and variety of the rolls, which mostly were riffs off of a traditional California rolls, with various fish and other toppings, and we enjoyed the nigiri, which included yellowtail, fresh salmon, mackerel, tuna, and ebi, Overall, it was a very good experience that wasn't cheap but worth coming back to again!
Obsessed with the concept of a build your own sushi box and the quality of the rolls were exceptional given the low price. Not much seating in there but FOB is right by the pier and we sat on a the benches near the water. Perfect day & perfect lunch!! Wish we had this in LA. The workers there are also extremely diligent when it comes to restocking the rolls that were out. Also plenty of sauce and sides available to choose from.
This is my FAVORITE place. I always take people here and crave it but I love the concept of getting as much or as little sushi as you want and getting one piece of many different things. 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.
So good! There was a line when I went but it goes by very fast! Fish is fresh and their staff is super on top of refilling all the nigiri and rolls! 1000/10 and bringing my friends here the next time I'm in Seattle. Shout out to the salmon belly and seared chili salmon! I'm drooling again just thinking about it! $15.99/lb for this quality is a steal! Like the salmon was thick HAHA
Get the salmon belly!!!!! I snagged 6 different pieces for ~$13, which isn't terrible. As someone who has a shelfish allergy, I really was limited but the salmon was delicious. Can't say I recommend the tuna or eel, but it was a fun experience. Expect a queue of 15 mins or so, but grab and go! There's 2 tables outside the restaurant but definitely take a walk to the waterfront and enjoy.
I'm extremely late to the FOB Sushi train, but it really is so solid. Fish is pretty fresh and the price for sushi is just unbeatable. 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.
FOB is da BOMB....woooW......Hype is real, worth the wait. Sushi selection was very eye pleasing and pallet satisfying....Quality was on point. Decent selection of rolls and Inari sushi. Nigiri tasted fresh. Was so good, had to revisit and stock up for our incredibly extensive journey home to the Golden State. -Tamago sushi was even better on the train. -Conclusion: Seattle is lucky to have a sushi spot with this kind of operational procedure. Will definitely be back nee t tome in town.
What a great concept! Sushi by the pound. This is an excellent idea and it's great if you just want to try a little bit of everything and not commit to ordering a roll. I love this concept. I'm not much of a roll person bc it's always pricey and then you have to eat all 6-8 pieces, so this was right up my alley. We loved it so much, we came here 2x when we were in Seattle. And even our first time we had to get seconds. All the sushi from the beginning are rolls, and near the end they are nigiris. So save some space for the good stuff at the end. The first time during lunch hour, they kept restocking the sushi, and they even had bluefin tuna nigiri at the very end! Score!! I'm more of a nigiri person so I got half rolls and half nigiri. Of course this isn't like fancy restaurant sushi, but more of like casual dining sushi and bc there were so many people, it was fresh bc it was a high turnover. Sushi quality was decent. Reminded me of just like an AYCE sushi quality. You won't get sick, but don't expect Jiro Dream of Sushi quality here. lol. The other time we went was during dinner of 1 hour before they close, the selection wasn't as good as they didn't have bluefin tuna nigiri, but still worth it and didn't cost us an arm and leg to get sushi. I hope someone catches this concept in San Diego! It's so clever. Love it and would love to come back again. read more

Finally, I can get as much sushi as I want, with plenty of options, at a normal price! I've already tried most of them and visit this place regularly. Usually there are a lot of people and a line, but the line moves pretty fast. One thing is that the space seems a little too small for the number of people coming here. Recently, people have even been eating right on the outside stairs, and the stairs get pretty unclean afterward. I love the concept and the taste! Great place if you want to try a wide variety of sushi without spending a fortune. read more
Saw this all over social media & had to check out once I was able to make it up to seattle. Got there around 4pm & there were a good amount of people in there. You can either choose the container or the box to put your sushi in. I went for the box. I was surprised how many different ones you could choose some. Between my bf & I, Id say we got a pretty good variety. Some were better then others. The rice was also a bit mushy on a few of them. There are a few tables & you can also eat on the stairs im front the store. The staff were very good about refilling the plates. A good bang for your buck if you think about how much you would pay for a roll of each one you got. It was just ok, but I'm glad I tried it. Definitely try it out at least once. read more

This is my favorite affordable sushi place in Seattle! When you go in, you are given tongs, a box, and a large array of options to choose from. For a price point, the normal sized box should amount to $15 if fully filled to the brim. My tip to get your moneys worth is to go for sushi and sashimi where the emphasis is on the fish, not the rice! If you are trying to keep costs low, avoid the tofu skin rice pockets. The rice wrapped in tofu skin weighs a lot and will add up quickly! There is also free toppings for the sushi such as soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger available inside the store. Sometimes the line goes out the door but it always moves very quickly! read more
Great sushi for an even better price!! My whole tray was $15. The quality is great for the amount you pay, and there is a lot of rolls and nigiri to choose from. There's some seating areas inside and a table outside for when there's better weather. :) read more
Such a unique and tasty spot to pick the sushi bites that you want! Grab a box and pay per pound! Plenty of sushi and nigiri options to choose from and some have fresh wasabi! Limited seating outside but easy to take box to-go! read more
Love this concept Was here for a few days fo a training and this was in the building You self serve roll and nigiri (further down the assembly line) and you are charged by weight Unfortunately no sashimi options and the fish to rice ratio isn't the best but decent quality and for the price, it's great! My favorites were the salmon, fatty tuna and scallop Yellowtail and surf clam (love both usually) were a bit underwhelming Update: it was so good I went twice! Go at noon because I went at 12:20 and the line was insanely long (luckily it moved pretty quickly) read more
Line moves by quickly. I thought this place had an interesting concept. Sushi by the pound seems like a decent deal! I will say they load each roll/sushi piece up with plenty of topping so the weight adds up quickly. Most of the rolls were delicious but I thought the nigiri was not that good. The fish didn't feel fresh. I highly recommend the lobster roll with the tempura shrimp in it Other drawbacks, because everyone is moving in a line, you have to be quite decisive with your sushi pieces. I didn't like that I had a few seconds to scan through what each sushi piece was. It felt a little pressuring in the way the lined up the queue. Also, limited seating indoors and outdoors. I enjoyed the concept and the Maki rolls. I'd come back next time I'm in town. read more
A small shop where you choose what sushi to place in your chosen size box. You are charged by weight! ($14.99 per lb at the time of this review). Friendly staff who more so just restock sushi options and work the pay counter. There's only booth seating rather than tables, so it may not be the best for group hangouts but rather 1-on-1 meetups! 5/5 - Small size takeout box - About 10 pieces of sushi were 1-1.5 lbs. Highly recommend their seared inari options and the salmon nigiri (both seared and regular)! read more

I honestly was skeptical but having been I find this idea genius! I wish there is one in my area! I liked that a lot of them had their own flavor profile. The fact that you can get a little of everything is great! Well priced and nice arrangement and spread. I want something like this closer to me! It was done so well I'm very happy with everything I got. read more
I've heard such good things about FOB sushi and then some not-so-great things about it (cough cough, a particular Tiktok that was also on the news). Because of the not-so-great stuff, I refrained from stopping in for a long, long time. Until recently. FOB is so popular in Seattle that I don't think my honest opinion will hurt it in the slightest: It's aggressively "okay." THE GOOD: For the price, awesome. We got 2 trays of sushi for only $28. Great variety from scallop to inari to different types of nigiri. It's not very often you find cheap sushi with this amount of variety. The best that I've tried is the albacore nigiri. THE BAD: All of the fish is... lacking flavor? None of it is that fresh. The rice is a tad mushy and lacking the slight tanginess that sushi rice traditionally has. Soy sauce and wasabi comes in packets. The chairs inside are all stained and the tables (which are few) are often dirty. It's meant to be a "take away" type of experience for sure. If you're looking to get some bang for your buck and unpretentious sushi, this is your spot. It's great for that. But I don't find it to be much different from grocery store sushi. read more

This was a really fun place to visit with a really cool concept of building your own sushi box! The pricing is actually very fair, especially if you go for the nigiri. The boxes and bags and presentation is really nice as well. There was a wide variety of roll and sushi options. But our only gripe is the quality / flavor of the fish was so-so. There were definitely some misses on some of the pieces we ate. read more
I love this concept! Being able to pick which sushi I wanted to try was great. Everything was fresh too and actually really tasty, even the ones I wouldn't normally get. Good service too, they're popular but handle the crowd well. They also kept the presentation nice and clean. It's $15 per pound of sushi for the rolls and nigiri, that's a great deal for the options and fresh selection they offer. read more
What a cool concept. I always wanted to go to sushi bar where I could pick different rolls to try rather than risking buying 4-6 rolls of same type and not liking it. Rolls were definitely fresh, affordable and variety was great. Me and my daughter loved it. Will be back when in Seattle again. Service was friendly. read more

Really cool concept of choosing your individual sushi pieces! Great service and the line moves quick. Great fish quality and generous portion sizes! read more
This place is SO GOOD and the concept is just genius. I come here at least once a week for lunch. I eventually had to cap myself to once a week and no more than one lb per visit, hehe. I gladly will come into the office with the return to office policy. It's also one of the cheapest lunch options around and very no-fuss convenient. There is not a lot of seatings available here like the one in Bellevue. During busy times the line still moves quickly and plus any wait is worth it. read more
I absolutely love this place! The concept is rather interesting and different from other sushi places. You go in and get a box or container and grab whatever sushi you want with some tongs, then pay by the pound. The sushi is fresh despite being on display here because the restaurant is so busy things are constantly being replaced by fresh rolls. There's enough variety for pretty much anyone that enjoys sushi. I went wild and got a 3lb box on my first time because I was too mesmerized by the experience! read more
The concept of pick your sushi is very good for me. I like that idea that sushi by pound concept. You can pick the sushi you like. Overall I got 14 pieces in the box for my lunch. The choice of sushi included roll, square rice pack, stuff rice with tofu skin, nigiri and more. Some of the salmon is torches with flame. Some sweet and the fish include but not limited to salmon, tuna, amberjack, squid, shrimp and more. The box is well designed and so does the Togo bag. Overall I enjoy my sushi here. read more
Came here interested in the BYO Sushi Box and it did not disappoint! Loved the variety of sushis to choose from and tasted fresh. There is an array of sushis to choose from and a worker kindly boxes them for you. The store was clean and brightly lit. Super cute! read more
Came back to FOB Sushi and I can confidently say it was even better than when I first went back in August. For a super casual, pay-by-weight sushi spot, the quality honestly surprised me this time around. The setup is grab-a-tray and choose whatever looks good, which I love because you're not stuck committing to a whole roll. They had a solid variety of nigiri, baked pieces, spicy mixes, and even some torched options. The salmon looked vibrant and fresh, and the specialty pieces had way more flavor than I remembered. Nothing tasted dry or old -- everything was well-seasoned and satisfying. Definitely better than your typical quick-grab sushi. Ambience-wise, it's pretty lowkey and no-frills. It's not a sit-down date night vibe -- more of a casual, quick lunch or grab-and-go type of spot. But it's clean, organized, and the display is visually appealing (you'll definitely end up grabbing more than you planned). Service is straightforward and efficient. Staff keeps the line moving and restocks consistently. It can get busy, but it never felt chaotic. Best part? It's very affordable for Seattle. You can load up a tray with solid quality sushi and not feel like you just paid omakase prices. For the value alone, it's hard to beat. If you're looking for fancy sushi, this isn't it. But if you want good quality, customizable, affordable sushi in downtown Seattle -- FOB hits. read more

I am literally counting down the days to my next trip to Seattle. Fob sushi is so good and the quality and quantity of sushi is amazing. There is something for everyone and every single piece of sushi catches your eye. There was a long line but it moves pretty quick. When you enter, you grab a box and tongs and move down the line. The hardest part is choosing what you want and to make sure it fits. There is very limited seating so it's best if you grab and go for take out. I also want to note that we went kind of close to closing time and they were still bringing out fresh rolls of sushi. read more
I'm a fan of FOB Poke and was excited to try FOB Sushi Bar for the first time. It's a small shop with limited seating and is definitely geared for takeout. The concept is simple: grab a container, pick your sushi, then pay at the counter based on the weight of your sushi selections. Because I like to consider all of my options before making decisions, I had to go back through the line several times to see what was available and read through the descriptions. Their prices are inexpensive. I ended up paying $13 which is very reasonable for lunch. It's also nice to try an assortment of sushi without having to commit to a whole roll. Overall, the sushi wasn't bad but I wasn't impressed, either. Some of the sushi was very fishy tasting which makes me question the freshness/quality of the fish. If it wasn't fishy, it lacked flavor. The rice had a strong vinegar flavor and doesn't have the cushiony/fluffy texture that you would expect from sushi rice. It was on the drier side which makes me wonder if it had been sitting in the fridge for some time after it was prepared. While I'm glad to try it, I wouldn't come back or recommend this place. I think it's a fine choice if you want a variety of cheap sushi with better selection than what you can find at a grocery store. However, I would rather pay more for better sushi. read more

I love coming here to satisfy my sushi craving. Great value with great quality. I love the efficiency and convenience of this concept. I'm able to try different rolls and nigiris without having to buy a full roll compared to a traditional setting. Everything is self-served, including water. Bar with all the sauces, ginger, wasabi. Ambiance is quiet, quick-eating, type of spot. No tables, just bar seating. My favorite is always the inari and the seared salmon nigiri. read more

Came for the 20% off promotion and there was definitely a long line, but it moved quickly. This is the second time I've been here, and I was still overwhelmed by how many options there were, from nigiri to inari to aburi sushi. The sushi itself tasted fresh and was pretty tasty, although it does all start to taste the same after you've had enough pieces. Each lb is $14.99, which is great for the variety and quality! The space itself is small with limited seating, and there's a big condiment / utensil station if you want ginger, wasabi, soy sauce. In my opinion, everyone has to try FOB at least once if they're in Seattle :) read more

How accessible is this place? I have a group of 6 w/ 1 person using a wheelchair or at least a walker and stairs are tough. Looks like seating is limited (2 top tables). Feasible to request making a 6 top table or is there somewhere nearby to go?
I would not recommend this spot for your group. There's steps to navigate and I'm sure there's a ramp. Parking can be challenging and seating is counter space only. Have you been to Ti22 which is further north on 4th Ave.?
Are there any vegetarian options like avocado rolls, veggie rolls, etc?
It's random.They make their own kind of rolls. It wasn't noticeable if they had vegetarian options.
Can anyone tell me if they offer rolls such as asparagus rolls, cucumber rolls, or avocado rolls?
They do not. The rolls here are more like their specialty rolls and nigiri.
What are the hours there? Haven’t been able to find info, was wondering if they were open on weekends too, and how late?
Sunday-Friday 11AM-8PM, closed on Saturdays
