    Phoenix Roll & Kiriba Roll
    Serena W.

    It was my first time here and decided to check out this place since I was in the area. I ordered the nigiri combination, phoenix roll, kiriba roll, and calamari. Compared to other sushi places, I thought the calamari portion size was small. It wasn't my favorite. I think the nigiri combo was alright. The octopus was too chewy to eat. I think my favorite were the rolls, especially Kiriba roll with seared salmon. It had the perfect seared salmon flavor. I would order the rolls again.

    I loved this quaint and charming spot. We got a couple nigiri combination platters, cucumber and avocado rolls, tempura takoyaki and futomaki. My absolute favorite was the seared salmon toro hand roll. Next time I will come just for their hand rolls!

    Parking is limited and can be a little hard to find, which is why I knocked off a star. Last time I came on the weekend and barely found a parallel parking spot in the dirt down the street. We showed up on a Wednesday night at 6pm with no wait. It didn't get busy until closer to 7pm. Sushi was great! Decent amount of different rolls to choose from. My friend got a 9pc nigiri set and after tax it was only $25 which is really good price! Spicy tuna was really yummy.

    Tako-ebi salad is gross. No seaweed in sight. Lame lettuce and cucumbers are mushy. Seriously, Kiriba?? Go elsewhere. Quality is so disappointing at $12 so not worth it at all. Do better.

    We were craving for some seared salmon and we were at Shoreline Community College for an event. Kiriba was within minutes and we were excited to try a new sushi joint (for us). Great inviting atmosphere with cozy and homey decor, it felt like stepping into a Japanese friend's house. We wanted to sample a variety so we ordered karaage, nigiri, gunkanmak, and a boat of sashimi with a glass of Asahi beer. Their nigiri and gunkan were pretty tasty and gunkanmaki were delicious. I think we are probably going to return for these. Sashimi, however, were borderline terrible. Some of the sashimi pieces were still frozen and we let our server know. I am not sure if this was a fluke but I have never had frozen sashimi before and it was weird. But we did enjoy most of what we ordered and we were happy with our meal.

    Since leaving downtown Seattle and moving to Greenwood, my wife and I were in a hunt to find a new sushi joint. With Kiriba Sushi literally down the street from us, we think we found our new go-to place. This place was on our bookmarks for so long, and it's a shame we didn't check out this place earlier. Two notes: parking is tight, but you can probably find some street parking. Second, probably best to make a reservation if you want to secure a seat. My wife and I ordered: The seared salmon toro roll Chirashi bowl Kiriba roll Pacific roll The seared salmon toro roll was a great appetizer. The roll was stuffed with the salmon goodness, and it was a great starter overall and I would recommend it to begin your meal. The rolls were really good. The winner probably was that Kiriba roll, as the unagi sauce paired with the seared salmon was so good. I was a tiny bit skeptical about the Pacific roll, as I don't recall having calamari ever in a sushi roll, but it actually worked! The smokiness of that salmon, wow. *chef's kiss* The chirashi bowl was also pretty generous, but I would say that this was actually the low-light of our meal. The rice wasn't very flavorful, as I do love the vinegary taste of sushi rice. But the rice served tasted more like normal rice, which was disappointing. Overall, what a surprising, well, surprise. You can easily drive by this place in Greenwood without knowing, but this is definitely a gem and place to check out if you're craving some sushi.

    I was craving sushi and wanted to grab something to go to share with my boyfriend. I found Kiriba Sushi via DoorDash which looked very promising! It's located next to Pagliacci Pizza on N 145th St. My boyfriend was the one who went to pick up the take out order, so no idea how the parking situation and the interior of the place is. But it seemed like he had an easy time grabbing the order! We ordered three rolls, one nigiri order, and one gunkanmaki order which all equaled to about $60 via DoorDash (the prices are probably cheaper through the restaurant themselves). We ordered the Kiriba Roll, Phoenix Roll, Dragon Roll, Hamachi (yellowtail) Nigiri, and Spicy Scallops Gunkanmaki. Our food looked relatively sad LOL. The rolls were tiny compared to what I was used to (peep at pic). But at least they were nicely cut into 8 small pieces! The nigiri and gunkanmaki looked promising! Starting with the nigiri! I was actually very disappointed by it. The fish was not as tender as I hope and had a semi-chewy texture which tasted not so fresh. My boyfriend loves hamachi and enjoyed it but me? Not so much (but more for him!). The gunkanmaki was actually the best thing of out everything. It had a really nice coat of spicy mayo which had a nice subtle kick. The scallops tasted fresh and was delicious! I wished I got another order of this LOL. Now for the rolls! My favorite would be the Kiriba Roll. The salmon and tempura went super well together and had a full amount of flavor. The Dragon Roll did too with all the unagi sauce. I think the unagi sauce spilled over in the container, giving the Kiriba Roll added flavor that complimented everything. The unagi was sweet with the drizzle. The Phoenix roll, on the other hand, wasn't as great as the two. The spicy mayo didn't have much flavor and the entire roll was practically tasteless. But the amount of seafood in it made up for the tastelessness as I had my concoction of soy sauce and wasabi. Loved how there was snow crab on top of it! Overall, not a bad place for sushi especially a little away from the Seattle area. The rolls looked small but luckily, the $60 worth of food had both me and my boyfriend full!

    At first you might not think it's a restaurant, as it looks like someone's house but inside it's a very homie feeling restaurant. The staff were all very friendly and authentic, which made the restaurant feel cozy. Once we ordered, the food came out really quickly. The fish tasted fresh and it was a good price for what I got. The beer even came with a chilled glass? Which always helps make the beer taste more crisp. Parking can be tough here. They only have a handful of stalls on the side, if not, you have to park further in the neighborhood. Overall, I would recommend this place, especially as there are not many Japanese restaurants in the area.

That said, the food has always been great. We usually have Shrimp tempura Udon, along with some rolls. The rolls are large and fairly priced. We are partial to spicy tuna or eel, so the rolls we pick usually have at least one of those ingredients Very excited that they have a Shinko Maki, very simple, but not all sushi places have this. We have not tried the Nigiri or Sashimi, so I can't comment on those items.

It doesn't look like much from the outside so I was pleasantly surprised by the inside. It was quite spacious with beautiful art pieces throughout the place. A lot of wood that gave it a bar like vibe too. We were greeted upon entry and immediately sat down. They have a decent amount of sushi options available. We decided to get three rolls: The Green Dragon Roll, The Godzilla roll, and the Dragon Roll. They were all flavored nicely with sauces drizzled on top of the sushi. The only thing that maybe I didn't like so much was the Green Dragon roll having a little too much avocado on top. We didn't have to wait long to order or for the food to come. I would very much consider this spot to be a hidden gem!

To start, while the server took our order, he sat on the table next to ours. Not AT the table...ON the table. Like he put his ass on the table while entering our order into his handheld system. The food came out quickly and was tasty, but honestly didn't look very appetizing. I got the All-Star Ramen and everything was the same color. See the picture. Visually underwhelming for an "All-Star" dish. Just sort of...beige. As soon as our food was served, the server went on his break, grabbed a bowl of Ramen, and sat just outside the window where we could watch him eat his dinner. From that point on the only service we got was by flagging down somebody else in the restaurant. My five dollar glass of iced tea was refilled once and only because I motioned somebody over to get me some more. There were no condiments at our table, so I had to go get some from a nearby table because nobody brought any to us. The walls were all patched and dirty, and the bathroom floor was covered in toilet paper. Honestly, this component of it was kind of gross and made the place feel kind of seedy. I've been here before, though it's been years....it was better before. We paid $60 for two people. I tipped but not well because, frankly, the service was not that great. I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon. Sad that they've fallen off their game.

    Updated review from 2 Months ago…read more.. I've been back roughly 6 times from my previous review of Kona Kitchen. Then it was too many staff, not many customers and it was difficult to get service, that has been improved upon. They are nice and attentive when they see you. Service was normal, the wait staff came around and offered more beverage. This time it was still slow period, so what gives it only 3 stars instead of more? It's the fact that the main door the employee use to go into the kitchen to give their orders to the cooks had cob webs on the top of the door.i mean everyone of them walk through that door hundreds of times throughout the week because I could tell it's been there for some time. Where's the food inspector, should be a concern because if it's there in full view of customers and employees, what else is happening as far as cleanliness at Kona Kitchen. I will be there within two or three days and wonder if the cobweb will still be a fixture there... it's something that is annoying because nobody's done anything about it. Amazing.
