If you're an apprentice of Chef Jiro, I expect the food to be spectacular..and it was. We got the peak omakase and everything was lovely! Such a good deal for so much food! Everything was honestly incredible, so you can't go wrong with their omakase. Make reservations if you can! They open at 5 and we saw people lining up at 2. read more

Amazing experience at Sushi Kashiba. The space is dimly lit and has a nice ambience. The best part was obviously the food, but our server was amazing in elevating the experience. The sushi tasted fresh. I would definitely be coming back with my family again. Recommend making a reservation a month in advance. read more

Sushi Kashiba was hands down the most traditional omakase experience I've had in Seattle. The place was fully booked when we tried to reserve, so the only seating we could get was at 8:45pm. We sat at the sushi bar and were so pleasantly surprised to realize the person taking care of us was Shiro Kashiba himself! The sushi was incredible. It's extremely authentic and beautifully prepared. But what really elevated the experience was how Shiro explained each dish, sharing the story behind the fish and where it came from, whether it was sourced locally from Puget Sound or flown in from Japan. The quality of the sushi alone would make this a memorable meal, but being served by Shiro himself made the evening truly special. Would absolutely recommend this for a special occasion or for anyone looking for a classic omakase experience in Seattle. read more

My husband and I were lucky enough to snag a 7pm reservation on a Saturday. Sadly we weren't served by Shiro but was able to see him! We learned from the hostess that you can request him on your reservation or you have to be among the earliest to arrive in your seating to get him. He alternates days he works so it's never guaranteed. The omakase was $180 per person although we opted for an additional 3 piece seared course which was an extra $30 and well worth it. My favorite pieces were the seared Kama toro, uni, seared king salmon belly and albacore belly. My husband's favorites were the saba mackerel and scallop. The pickled herring was a surprisingly unique nigiri we both enjoyed too. We have tried a number of sushi restaurants in Seattle and Sushi Kashiba still ranks at the top! Sitting at the bar is definitely the way to go if you can get a counter reservation. read more

Well. I don't even know where to start with this experience. All the amazing. ALL THE AMAZING! Supreme service, superb food, nice cozy atmosphere, and fair prices. The omasake was 100% worth it. Never left so full from sushi LOL Next time I'd stay away from the cocktails, those fell short, but hey, we were there for the sushi. And it did not disappoint. There's also counter dinning 3 times a night and the reservations are strict. read more

Definitely one of the better omakase's I've had! It was tucked away in a small area that you couldn't really find just from looking on the outside. We had a reservation for the bar and got sat pretty quickly. Both the staff and our chef was super attentive and really friendly. I really enjoyed how they presented each piece, as they went through the main types of fish at a time. All the salmons, then the tunas, etc. it really let me compare all the different cuts of the fish which is harder to do with standard omakase's. A lot of these fish melt in my mouth which is definitely an understatement! We also got the supplementary bites at the end which had some wagyu and more fish. This was all topped off with a super simple, light, and sweet tamago dessert which I wish I had more of. Overall a definite recommend if you're in the area and are open to splurging a bit on sushi read more

If you're looking for some of the best sushi in the Pacific Northwest, Sushi Kashiba absolutely deserves a spot on your list. Located by Pike Place Market, it's one of those places people talk about for a reason. The ambiance feels authentic, warm, and welcoming. Refined without feeling stuffy. Before even getting to the sushi, we started with a rye cocktail called the High Tea. It may be one of the most dangerously balanced cocktails I've had in a while. Smooth, flavorful, and so well balanced you almost forget there's alcohol in it. (Proceed with caution, or don't. Live your life.) We started with Nigiri. The Mackerel was definitely salty, as our server warned us ahead of time, but the Spanish Mackerel was more subtle and balanced. Both the King Salmon and Atlantic Salmon were excellent. Each piece had just the right amount of brushed wasabi. Enough to enhance the fish without overpowering it. For Maki, we tried the Spicy Tuna and the Kashiba roll. The Spicy Tuna had the perfect level of heat, even if you don't like spice. Noticeable but not overwhelming. The Kashiba roll was the only item that didn't fully land for me. It had a very strong ocean-forward flavor that some people may love, but it just wasn't quite my thing. Now, the star of the evening was the Black Cod. This is one of the dishes the restaurant is known for, and after trying it I completely understand why. It may honestly be the best cod I've ever had. Perfectly cooked, flaky, rich, and incredibly flavorful. Service was excellent throughout the night. The staff clearly know the menu well and guide you through the experience, and everything arrived surprisingly quickly considering the level of care in the preparation. Pro tip: None of the dishes are overly large and you can easily try many different things from the menu like we did without being too full. If you're visiting Seattle or simply want an exceptional sushi experience, Sushi Kashiba lives up to the hype. read more

High end sushi with high end prices around Pike Place Market. Went on a Sunday evening - had reservations, but had to wait a few minutes to talk to a staff member. Eventually was able to check in and was seated. The ambiance is your typical Japanese minimalistic/modern vibes. Ordered a small sake bottle as well as various sushi bits. Had all the nigiri salmon sushi pieces. Everything is good (maybe a little bland) - but the price sort of put me off for what it was (comparing to higher end sushi places in LA / NYC). Not sure I'd come back but will see. read more

On this trip to Seattle, my goal was to dine at places other than the ones I've frequented on prior trips. I used Yelp and Google to find the highest rated restaurants within walking distance from my hotel ... Anything within a mile was feasible. Sushi Kashiba is located on the ground floor of the Inn at the Park Hotel, one of my favorite hotels in Seattle. I made a reservation in June for the 7pm seating as they only accept a reservation for one at 7pm and 9pm. I was seated in position 3 so I had the good fortune to be served by the master himself, Shiro Kashiba, now 83. The Chef's Counter Omakase ($180) runs 1.75 hours and consists of 23 courses: 1 hand roll, 20 pieces of nigiri sushi, miso soup and tofu in broth. One can order an additional 3 pieces of sushi for $30, up to two times. Accompanying my meal, I had two glasses of Elise Dechannes Essentielle NV Champagne ($29ea) and one glass of Vocaret Chablis ($23). Every piece of sushi was delicious and being able to speak with Chef Kashiba was priceless. My only nitpick was I would have preferred to be served nigiri one piece at a time rather than in groups of three or four. I understand the need to meet the 1.75-hour timeline but that meant that the fish sat longer. At a Michelin star sushi restaurant I enjoyed earlier this year, the pieces were served one at a time and we were asked to consume it within 10 seconds of it being placed in front of us. They only did two seatings per evening, and the cost was commensurately higher. Having said that, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Sushi Kashiba and would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommended! To your health, Chef Kashiba! read more

I dream of the omakase meal I had here. It's pricey but worth every penny. It's hands down the best sushi I've ever had. Some of the most unique flavors I've ever had of nigiri. Even after going to Japan, nothing compares to Sushi Kashiba. Service is exceptional and the staff were so attentive and ready in a heartbeat for anything. Great ambiance and it was an amazing experience at the sushi counter. I can't wait to go back! read more

Sushi Kashiba - Omakase - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A Seattle icon. Edomae style meets Pacific Northwest right in the heart of Pike Place Market. We tried Sushi Kashiba as a last minute decision My fiancé wasn't blown away but there were a few pieces we agreed on. Also we were hoping to try Ankimo (monkfish liver) but it wasn't available today. The details: $160 pp for omakase, which included about 15 pieces of nigiri, 1 hand roll, 3 pieces of sashimi. What we enjoyed - Uni from Hokkaido / Japan - Flounder from Korea - Amberjack from Japan - Otoro and seared bluefin tuna from Baja California read more

We wanted to do a fancy dinner for our last full day in Seattle! I booked a reservation for four, a couple days before our dinner and was able to snag the last spot for a Saturday night. We got seated immediately upon arrival and the service was fantastic. Our server was wonderful and knowledgeable and took time to explain everything we were eating. All four of us did the Omakase dinner for $160 a piece. It was a wonderful experience and I had some of my favorite all time bites ever in this meal! The cold egg custard came first, then the hand roll, then appetizer trio, followed by two sets of our (6 piece) nigiri, followed by a set of (3 piece) nigiri, and finally a dessert finish with two pieces of nigiri and a miso soup. Everything was phenomenal. My favorite bite ever was the amaebi!! This was the BEST amaebi I have ever had. The fried head of the amaebi is just as important as the body. It was fried to perfection, it was the perfect crunch while retaining all of its creamy juicy innards. It was so good, my friend and I got an additional amaeabi each! The body was super sweet and just delightful. Honorable mentions, the uni!! Best, so sweet, so creamy, so melt in your mouth goodness! Everything about this meal was amazing. The desert finisher with the tamago and the fried eel donut nigiri was also insane. I have never had fried eel nigiri before and this was it. It was like nothing I've ever had and it tasted like an eel donut! So good! I had a wonderful view of pike place with the sign and also the Ferris wheel peaking behind. This dinner was definitely one for the books! Also be aware, that in lieu of tipping they do have a 20% surcharge fee that acts as tipping. Our total for four omakase, two additional nigiri and two beers was roughly 1K. So definitely pricy but very worth it! read more

We sat at a table and had the omakase while our kids had a few sushi pieces and appetizers. The sushi pieces are cut really thin. I've eaten at various omakase sushi restaurants and have never seen the pieces cut this small and thin. The shoyu brushed on is a little light for me. Personal preference. Kids had the salmon and tuna sushi, agedashi tofu, tempura set, kanpachi collar, and black cod. They enjoyed all the dishes. Overall good experience but felt has the waiter was pushing to order more food and pushing more sake than we wanted to order. Wanted us to order 720ml when I'm the only one drinking. Some individuals might be able to finish but a little too much for me. Overall, I thought the prices were a bit high for what they offered. Sushi was fresh and appetizers were very good but I guess the prices are set for a tourist area where they can charge higher prices. read more

Great value ($180/pp) for the amount, variety, and quality of food! I did the chef's counter experience, I walked in at 5pm on a Monday and there was basically no wait, although there was a line. My favorites were the uni and amaebi. Some of the in-between courses like the tofu/egg/miso soup were just alright but all the fish quality was fantastic! In the beginning the chef put a little too much wasabi, but adjusted by request read more

If you're looking up reviews for Sushi Kashiba I assume you are already aware of the prestige, the quality, and the steep price for the omakase. And I will say as someone who had never done an omakase experience before this was really special. I was a solo diner for this (my bf did not fancy sushi but no way was I gonna pass it up). I reserved about a month ahead (I don't know how reliable the walk in situation is - If you know you will be here just book the res). They had a max of maybe 8 diners for the 7:30 pm seating, on a Monday night. I sat with another solo diner and we sprang up a conversation halfway through the meal so that was nice. I honestly could not pick a favorite sushi piece. The shrimp course and maybe the fatty tuna and the salmon course were my favorites if I had to pick some faves from the dining experience. And also the dashi mushroom broth was very comforting and a nice thing to sip on between courses of some of the best sushi I've ever had. Hefty price when all is said and done - with the service charge+ one mocktail it came out to about $260 (I didn't even do a sake pairing). read more

Absolute perfection in every bite. My husband and I were looking for a memorable experience for our anniversary and Sushi Kashiba definitely fit the bill. As always, reservations is highly recommended especially if you are seeking for the much coveted sushi bar counter seating. Reservations are 105 minutes and seating times at 5PM, 7PM, and 9PM. Dress code is business casual per their reservation page. We arrived 20 minutes before our reservation time. There are specific line up areas for regular table and sushi bar counter. The restaurant opened exactly at 5 pm and a hostess came out to check us in and take our drink orders. We were seated only a few minutes later. Their sushi bar counter massive! We were seated in the corner bar seat with a full of the sushi making process. We were provided with a oshiboro to refresh before our meal. Their drink menu is decent features cocktails, sake, champagnes, wine, beer, and Japanese whiskey. I ordered an Old Town Highball to start which is a mix of Suntory Toki Japanese whiskey and soda. We also ordered a bottle of the Petit & Bajan, "Nuit Blanche" Grand Cru Blanc de Blanc champage to share. We had opted for the Chef's Counter Omakasae experience. The experience includes a special appetizer trio, handroll, today's nigiri selection, and seasonal side dish. The meal was concluded with miso soup and tamago finale. Our sushi chef walked us through each nigiri served and it's origin. We were served various nigiris which included se bream, fatty tuna, salmon, sweet shrimp, seared fatty tuna, etc. There's an option of adding 3 more pieces of nigiri for $30, however we were absolutely full! Service was also perfection. Our servers anticipated our needs consistently checked in on our experience. I would absolutely come to do this Omakase Experience again. read more

Hands down our favorite sushi place in the greater Seattle! We've been here countless times over the years and this is our go-to place for celebrations. We've love their tuna (medium fatty and fatty tuna), tempura, chawan mushi and black cod. Basically you can't go wrong with anything you order and the service is amazing as well. Omakase is a great choice if you want to try a little bit of everything. You need to come if you haven't tried it yet! read more

Service was friendly and attentive, though a bit on the slower side. I would've preferred for dishes to come out as they were prepared instead of waiting to finish one plate before the next arrived -- especially since parking around here maxes out at two hours, which doesn't leave much wiggle room. The highlights for me were definitely the sweet shrimp and fatty toro rolls -- both fresh, rich, and beautifully prepared. Overall, the fish quality was solid and tasted fresh, as it should at this price point. It was a treat to see Sushi Master Shiro Kashiba in his element, but I couldn't quite justify the value relative to the cost. Glad we got to experience it once, but for the price, it's probably good enough to say "I've been there". read more

Stopped by on a Friday night with last minute reservations. Love that I can decide to eat here and there are tables within an hour of searching. I got the table omakase and the food was meh. The appetizer was a miss, hand roll was great, egg palate cleanser was interesting, and sushi was solid. Nothing to write home about. I'm left handed, and they didn't adjust my sushi to make it easier to eat. Granted, I was at a table but I've had lower priced sushi spots do this for me when I'm not at the sushi counter. They refilled water religiously, however I ordered a hot tea and had to keep flagging someone for a refill. I also find it strange that they would offer a hot towel to those at the counter but not for table guests. Overall, probably a 3.5/5. At a lower price point I wouldn't nit pick as much, but the experience here pales in comparison to Nakazawa and I'm not even a Nakazawa fan! read more

My boyfriend booked the chef's counter at Sushi Kashiba for my birthday, and it was an incredible experience. We went on a Monday evening, and the place was buzzing -- definitely glad we booked ahead. Tucked in Pike Place, it feels like a high-end Japanese oasis in the middle of the market's chaos. We did the chef's table experience and were lucky enough to see Shiro himself behind the counter, working alongside the other chefs. Every course was flawless -- fresh, balanced, and beautifully presented. The mushroom soup was so rich and restorative I'm convinced it cured my cold, and the fish was melt-in-your-mouth tender. My favorite was the Baja salmon, though my partner still dreams about the seared tuna (he even ordered a second round). Our chef served just us and one other couple, which made the experience feel intimate and personal. My only tiny gripe: I wish they'd done something a little extra for my birthday beyond the greeting at check-in -- but that's splitting hairs. This was a truly special meal and one I'll be remembering for a long time. read more

This was our special treat and first time trying Omakase. We were thoroughly impressed with the food, how fresh and tasty all the fish were. The 4 of us were assigned one chef. He was awesome with describing the fish and accommodating for one of us who was gluten-free. Our favorites were the salmon belly and Norwegian mackerel. We were also blown away by the keen service. Our only complaint was that the space can get pretty loud, and it was difficult to hear our chef across the counter at times. read more

Amazing sushi and great experience! Went in late and sat at the bar. Ordered sushi from the bartender. He had great suggestion and a very enjoyable conversation. read more

I'm not sure where to start. I promised the wife 1/2 the trips up to the PNW we will do something different. I'm not a fish person (sushi in Santa Cruz is spicy tuna). 21 courses of nigiri. Our chef was engaging and pretty funny. We were wondering how old he was. Seated at the bar and watching him work was incredibly interesting... Mackerel was a bit fishy. And who the $$$ thought eating Uni was a good thing (it literally was hard to keep down). Outside of that, the wife was happy and this non-fish person is just eating the wrong fish. Not sure my pocket book could afford such. read more

Sadly, a letdown. (PRICE AT BOTTOM) Honestly I was really looking forward to Sushi Kashiba after hearing so much hype, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. So for those new to omakase experiences, the word "omakase" literally means "I'll leave it up to you," so instead of ordering à la carte, you let the chef select each course. You'll start with a house appetizer followed by 12 pieces nigiri, 1 hand roll and conclude with miso soup and the traditional egg finale. Now, i've been to Japan multiple times and have enjoyed multiple omakase experiences. However i'm sad to say I found this one underwhelming and not worth the price. To start, we weren't seated at the chef's table, which was a HUGE letdown and felt like a missed opportunity for the full experience (which justifies the elevated price IMO). On top of that, you'll find no soy sauce or wasbi offering...I can live without the soy sauce but I was expecting an offering of fresh wasabi root similar to comparable restaurants. The cost? Hard to justify - The omakase experience is $180/pp so with 2 martinis, tax & gratuity = $250 total. Polite staff aside, the hype was bigger than the reality, and this experience fell short of what I've come to expect from high-end omakase. read more

Yes, it's pricey--let's just get that out of the way. But honestly, I do think the quality matches the cost. If your goal is to load up on rolls and eat your body weight in sushi, this probably isn't the spot. But if you're here for the omakase experience, thoughtful service, and beautifully executed bites, then you're in the right place. We went with the omakase and overall, it was a delight. Joe, our server, was fantastic--attentive without being intrusive, walked us through each course, and made sure we never had to ask for a thing. Out of the many courses, there were maybe 3-4 that weren't quite my favorite, but that was purely personal taste (I lean toward fattier cuts and enjoy white fish less). The highlight of the evening was the extra fatty tuna they brought out to close the meal--it was buttery, melt-in-your-mouth perfection. I left the restaurant happy, satisfied, and already planning when I might splurge again. read more

Finally tried sushi Kashiba and it was really good and really fun, honestly no complaints it's just a bit pricey. Hurts my wallet to realize that it's 21 pieces of sushi for omakase and it's 190 per person and then tax and tip , so like 10 bucks per bite (very very good bites tho) but def somewhere I'd only go for special events or when I'm not picking up the tab lol. Overall the experience was really good, we got there on time and they seated us promptly and took our jackets. We were sat at the counter with another group of 2 next to us and we both were served by the same chef behind the counter so we were timed and served at the same time. Overall everything was good, first time having geoduck and loved that and learning more about it, I loved all the fatty stuff, all the yuzu, and onion and seared ones. The soup section was really good too. We got the terrier Collins and that was yummy too. Overall great experience, has a great view of pikes place market. read more

Amazing! Had a 7pm dinner table reservation but lined up at 4:20pm on 12/30 for chef's counter omakase (5pm first come first serve) and there was no line - just one person ahead. A few people trickled in btwn 430-455 but there were still plenty spots left for the sushi counter. I'm glad we arrived early as the first 3 parties of 2 were served by Chef Kashiba himself, who was amazing - interactive and a joy to be around. The sushi was amazing. 21 pieces ($175) plus we ordered 3 additional pieces (additional pieces are ordered in sets of 3, chef's choice, and a max of 2 orders are allowed, probably bc of timing). We also got the yellowtail collar (MP). We left super stuffed. I love that not only is the sushi amazing, there is a good yet extensive a la carte menu to choose from also, which is allowed at the counter in addition to (but not in lieu of) the omakase. I also loved the sake we ordered (see photo), so much that I ordered it online when I got home (it was also available at the local sake store the waitress told me but we were flying back to NY). Chef was trained by Jiro so expect the best. He did not disappoint. Can't wait to return! read more

We have been here multiple times throughout the years and it truly never disappoints. The food is always spectacular. Yes, it's pricey, but there are a lot of other pricey restaurants in Seattle that don't come even close to the quality and consistency you get here. The service and ambiance are always amazing! Brandon is often our server and his recommendations are always big hits! He's always on top of our orders and is making sure we have everything we need.

If there's one category of food that I'm going to be most critical of, it's omakase experiences. This omakase experience at Sushi Kashiba fell well short of my expectations and was lacking overall. The quality and freshness of the fish was not good. I have been burping up a fishy taste ever since I finished my meal, which only happens after I eat low quality sushi. It's clear by the price they are charging for this subpar omakase that the local crowd doesn't know good sushi. I would say this place is an easy pass if you know your stuff. read more

The absolute best sushi experience of my life. We were lucky enough to have Chef Shiro Kashiba as our chef for the evening. He was very kind. I loved his humor. It was fascinating being able to watch him work. Not only can you very clearly see his level of skill, but you can also see how much he genuinely enjoys his work. We also had waiters coming in and out ensuring our water was filled, our used plates were gone, etc. Service was perfect. Now, for the omakase? Every bite was mind-blowingly delicious. I wish I could come here regularly. The flavors of each nigiri worked so well together. Not to be basic, but my favorites were all the salmon nigiris, I can't ignore how flavorful they were! The yellowtails or the shell-fish nigiri's were a close second. They always end the night with their specialty tamago nigiri, and it is worth the hype! I've never had Tamago like it. Overall, best Sushi experience, can't wait to visit again one day. read more

My meal at Sushi Kashiba is one of the more memorable omakase experiences I've had. Sushi Kashiba is the latest in a long line of restaurants by Shiro Kashiba, who brought edomae sushi to Seattle in the 1960s. He's still going strong at age 83, working three nights a week behind the sushi bar. I showed up in line at 4:30 for the 5:00 seating at the sushi counter, and was able to get a spot for my friend and me. However, there was only one other party who got a spot behind us, so be sure to arrive plenty early if you plan on attending the 5:00 seating. The space is beautiful, with windows overlooking Pike Place Market and the waterfront. The service, by sushi chef Chris and waitress Sarah, was phenomenal. The two worked in tandem to provide a phenomenal meal. The meal is 21 courses, most of which are nigiri. In addition, we had a toro hand roll, agedashi tofu, matsutake mushroom soup, and delectable tamagoyaki. If you recall the film Jiro Dreams of Sushi and the struggle for the perfect tamagoyaki, Shiro was one of Jiro's early pupils in Japan. The nigiri was simple and delicious, showcasing both local fish and pieces flown in from Japan and other parts of the world. We both felt that the meal represented a good value, as the quality was truly outstanding. The icing on the cake was getting to meet and take a photo with Shiro himself, who went around to every table and even cleared some people's plates! This level of work ethic is clearly what has brought him such success and renown throughout his many years in Seattle. Whether you're a local or visiting, carve out a night in your schedule to sit at the sushi counter at Sushi Kashiba! read more

My husband and I both had the omakase - it was worth every penny! My favorites were the sweet shrimp, toro, and uni. We also ordered the shrimp tempura which was delicious.

Guess it's time for an update. One of my best friends and her boyfriend treated me out to kashiba because it's their favorite place. They're regulars here and I told them the last time I was here I just thought it was okay haha. Service was definitely really good. Our server was not only super nice but very attentive and knowledgeable. My friend and I didn't do omakase because we just wanted to order a la carte but her boyfriend did. I really enjoyed dinner here. From the oysters to the nigiri. Everything was so delicious. We probably ate most of the sweet shrimp and seared Toro because we ordered so much but it was nice to be back and this time everything was great. This place was pretty packed for a Saturday night so that's always a good sign. read more

Service was immediately excellent. It was 30 min to closing and they got us seated at the bar with the regular menu. Because this place or the chef is so famous, I had to try the omakase. The fish and seafood quality was excellent and well executed, similar to what I've had in Japan and Chicago. For $150 pre tax and tip in America, I think this omakase is arguably appropriate. read more
