    You get what you pay for- at 13.99 (9.99 with the summer promo) I got a good amount of sushi but the roll I got (Rocky Roll) said nothing about being fried and wasn't very flavorful. Not necessarily BAD and we were just looking for something fast & open which is what we got, but def not worth another visit

    Food - for a small little place in this little mall, I was really impressed. The Jade roll was really fresh and they had a ton of vegetarian options! Very tasty! Service - very speedy and polite! Ambiance - casual and clean. Minimalist and modern with options for a table or take out.

    We got take out when I was visiting my daughter in Seattle. I don't usually buy sushi except for special occasions. This restaurant almost ruined my holidays. The sushi rolls they gave us was old and brown. It looked like they made it the day before. Not good tasting. The wasabi was only two very small packets despite having ordered 4 rolls. And the pickled ginger they gave us actually tasted like mold. Not a little bit. It was so moldy I had to spit it out into my napkin. We spent $50 on a holiday meal to celebrate the little time we have together, and this restaurant sold us some shit in a box. It was horrible and these people have no idea what service means. What a selfish thing to do to your customers. They should be shut down.

    The very greasy and hard beef bento box do not recommend

    The food was very unsatisfactory and very cheap, the shushi burrito chicken dinner taste like a McDonalds McChicken the portions are a lot smaller then the photos they show, the teriyaki beef bento box meat was way to thick and taste like cheap freezer burnt meat, the sushi was absolutely disgusting the and the teriyaki chicken bento box meat was very grisly and not lean at all, made my mom very nauseous after eating it service at the restaurant was decent, wan g looked very tired and seems out of it, the ambiance was nice inside, on the street I heard someone complain about it saying it's "nowhere close the bb's teriyaki", which in my opinion is decent, today we called asking for a refund and we were told "no Since nobody else complained about the food we can not offer a refund" the only good thing was the rice

    We ordered door for delivery. I am watching my sodium intake, do this was a refreshing experience. The chicken was tender, sushi was nice and fried shumia was yummy. The preparation and packaging was great service for our delivery with condiments included ginger, low sodium soy sauce and wasabi. I have not been to this location, but it is a great place to order for delivery LadyFlava of LadyFlavaNews

    My boyfriend and I got our order delivered via Postmates and everything arrived super quickly. The fried foods were still hot, and the seafood was still fresh and amazing. We got the yummy roll meal with a side of tuna tataki for $22.95. The tuna tataki was savory due to the light sear and little bit of pepper on top. I found the addition of mango to raw fishes (tuna, salmon, and yellowtail) to be super refreshing and that it surprisingly compliments the taste of the sea. The yum yum sauce was creamy yet refreshing, completing and balancing the taste of the whole roll. We actually ordered extra of that sauce to dip the chicken karaage, which was in a promotion for only $1.95. The chicken was juicy and tender on the inside while the exterior was nice and crunchy despite having been delivered. We also got a BOGO deal for the fried california rolls (6pc), so we were able to get 12 pieces for only $8.45! We were able to get enough food to fully feed two people for just $30 due to promotions, but even without it, I thought the prices were decent. Fresh and delicious, I'd recommend!

    Not bad for a quick Japanese fast food restaurant! They're is a variety of items on the menu. We tried the salmon don and the gyudon. Both were prepared fairly quickly and the quality wasn't bad! The rice to protein ratio was high but everything was tasty and simple.

    Avoid ordering from doordash unless you're cool with getting an incorrect order. Tried getting a salmon poke and ended up with shrimp. Called the restaurant and got even more confused after talking with them. Definitely not ordering from there again.

    SOOOOO delicious! Ordered takeout from this spot. Food was ready quickly and packaged perfectly! The rolls are small but very well made and yummy. Got the Seahawk ($11.95) and the Snow Crab ($11.95) Rolls, and the Unagi Don ($12.95). ALl super fresh and delicious. Seems to be a small place with limited seating inside.

    Chicken karaage
    Huong L.

    I have been here a few times now and thoroughly enjoyed everything here. It's not the best food yo eaten but the quality exceeds the price you pay. Karaage chicken - these are sooo plump and tender inside and very flavorful. The outside is a little tough but not bad. Also, they have promotions right now where you can get these for $1. Normally, it would be $5 which is still very reasonable as well. Unagi bowl - another great deal. A typical unagi bowl at most places can cost you around $15-$16. The bowls here are around $12. And the flavor and texture is all there. I love the flavor, it worked really well with the soft rice Takoyaki - standard, nothing really special Tuna tataki - this was surprisingly good. It's not as thick cut as most places but the flavor and quality is there again. I usually don't like rice but I was hoping to have rice to go with it. They could make a rice bowl with this and I would buy it. Onigiri - this is a new item on their menu and I thought it was a little pricey. They are super cute and very simple. One of them had seaweed and one of them has crayfish. They were good but I don't think I would pay more than $5 for them. Overall, this place will be a go to for a quick lunch and sushi in capitol hill.

    Very nice to enjoy my date in peace with a simple meal.
    Darrion H.

    This is a simple place. I like to come here to get away from all the madness. Prefect for a different, but simple date night meal. There arent any crazy bars or picked dining rooms here. You have enough elbow room to not even notice the others dining. If the place where Sunday packed you would still have enough room to enjoy a private date. You do however have to order at the front counter and seat yourself. The portions are fairly small, but it is on the cheaper side for sushi in the area. This is not my go to fit sushi at all... well I do think their handroll menu is probably my favorite I've had the pleasure of ordering from. If you want to go on a date and have good and simple food that won't break the pockets, this is your place. Unless it's happy hour, I think you can find better deals on sushi at other restaurants for happy hour. Either way, this place gets my vote! I love coming here. 4.5 for me.

    The food is fresh. Comfortable environment, offer good service Recommend here to find food that suits you.

    While I have never visited the restaurant, they have delivered no less than ten meals to me via Uber Eats. I first tried them because of a 2 for 1 special they had and now find then an affordable delight at a fair price for Seattle. The delivery is always packaged with all the necessities (soy sauce, wasabi, ginger, chopsticks, etc) that you would need when dining in your hotel room. Deliveries have always been fast to the hotels as this location is central to downtown Seattle. Definitely worth a shot.

We opted for the 16pc Chef's Choice Sushi Course, which consisted of 4 courses. For the first course, we were served Albacore, Flounder, Sea Bream, and Black Snapper, which were excellent. The cuts of fish were great, and I appreciated the server advising where we should skip the soy sauce. The second course was Amberjack, Striped Jack, and 3 different Salmon varieties. As a salmon lover, I especially enjoyed this part! The fourth course consisted of Bluefin Tuna served 4 ways (all delicious) and the final course had Chopped Fatty Tuna, Eel, and Tamago. This last one was probably my least favorite, and the Tamago was different than normal, almost pastry-like. However, the overall experience was awesome, and we were very full by the end.

I wish they had more cold tea options for the summer and more non-alcoholic drinks in general, but still had a great experience. The fish selection is fresh and the pieces are very manageable. It feels like there is a local touch with the salmon course/pieces. My husband is left handed and I was very impressed our waiter noticed and adjusted accordingly. I especially loved their soy sauce (which they said was house made). Fun little date night out and we really did enjoy it. Highly recommend making a reservation as that is what we did.

Since my birthday fell on a Wednesday, we were lucky enough to have Chef Shiro Kashiba himself behind the counter preparing and serving our meal. The entire experience was incredible. The service was organized, attentive, and made the evening feel truly special. Chef Shiro Kashiba is knowledgeable, entertaining, and incredibly passionate about his craft. With every course, from salmon and tuna to white fish, mackerel, shellfish, and eel, he explained how each piece should be eaten, where the fish was sourced, and even shared personal stories from his career. It felt like he was telling a story through every piece of sushi he prepared, making the experience both captivating and unforgettable. Chef Shiro Kashiba is truly inspiring. It was also wonderful to see that everyone seated at our counter had traveled from out of state just to experience his omakase, which speaks volumes about his reputation. This was, without a doubt, the best sushi omakase experience I've ever had. The fish was exceptionally fresh, and every bite was thoughtfully prepared. The flavors were unlike any sushi I've had before and gave me a whole new appreciation for how extraordinary sushi can be when it's crafted by a chef with such deep knowledge and experience. I would absolutely love to come back again. I left feeling completely satisfied and fulfilled, yet hungry for more of this amazing sushi experience.

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.

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.
