    The handrolls were incredible! They don't skimp on the fish and I love how the seaweed is wrapped with a plastic layer. That way your seaweed doesn't get soggy after a few seconds. The chirashi bowl is loaded with fresh fish/shrimps! I also feel like the prices here are really good! The ramen is okay though.

    My husband and I had a delightful experience when we came for a late lunch on Sunday! We were able to walk right in and get seated. The waitstaff was friendly, without overbearing, and the restaurant was small, but not cramped. We had the special tameke set, chirashi bowl, chicken karaage, and house sake. Total came out to a little over $100 before tip. It was more than enough food for two people, we left feeling satiated, and with a few pieces of chicken. The quality of the fish was amazing. The chirashi bowl had generously cut pieces of a wide variety of fish, including uni and shrimp. The tameki was mostly good. There was one that had cream cheese, which I didn't love. I think one of them was maybe supposed to be a spicy tuna, but it wasn't super memorable. I liked the scallop one the best. Overall fabulous food and an inviting decor. Would def go back!

    We came here for their Seattle restaurant week menu which is highkey such a good deal!! We both got the $50 omakase + appetizer + dessert. For appetizer we got the salmon carpaccio and the spicy tuna chips and both were really good. Especially the carpaccio, highly recommend!! The 12 piece omakase was so good!! We got to try some pieces that we never had and it was amazing. The fish was really fresh and I would have to come back to get it again.

    Chicken Karaage - Deep fried marinated chicken which tasted like the Taiwanese pop chicken. Perfectly fried and not oily at all. The spicy mayo added a nice touch to it. Spicy Tuna Chips - It's tempura seaweed with the spicy tuna and furikake. Very great portion of the tuna and based from most of the review, this is a highly recommended appetizer and I totally agree. Out of the Temaki, some were excellent and some were just okay. Highly suggest the Toro, Snow crab mix with the shrimp tempura, grilled eel, and salmon with cream cheese (not the one with wasabi sesame). Tempura lobster - I don't recommend. It's overfired and the batter was too thick. Overall the experience was great. Great portion and service was decent as well. Very cozy restaurant. The only bad thing I'd say is the bathroom, not very clean. I love that they validate parking!

    The tuna chips were delicious. The quality of the tuna was excellent and paired perfectly with the crunch of the seaweed. The chicken karaage was also tasty, but the tuna chips were the standout for me. The tempura deluxe was just okay and not really my personal favorite, though others at the table really enjoyed it. The tonkatsu ramen was marvelous. It was perfectly balanced and easily one of the best I've had. We ordered the signature temaki set and swapped the tempura shrimp for a classic temaki, and it was AMAZING. The tuna poke, creamy scallop, and salmon wasabi signature temaki were my favorites, although all of them were delicious. I highly recommend this dish. We also tried the toro premium bite and the truffle scallop temaki. Both were excellent and absolutely worth the price. The service was great and our server was very attentive. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant. It is one of the best places I have visited in Seattle.

    Great tempura! Great chicken karage-reminded me of taiwanese style popcorn chicken! Great temaki! Fresh fish. Ramen was very good as well. Visited because of tiktok. Location was not too busy and my party of 4 was sat immediately on a Saturday @7pm. They allow for 1 substitution for the signature hand rolls. I replaced one with unagi. My favorite was the scallop and I really liked the different toppings on the hand rolls.

    What a surprise to discover this restaurant. We came and enjoyed the hand rolls and ramen. The handrolls had customs nori protection to keep the seaweed as crisp as possible !! The flavors where fresh and complex. They hit all the notes you want in a handroll. We ordered one to share, we regretted sharing. But the ramen was also solid, the chasu was a bit thick and grisly. We will be back with plans to both order our own rolls.

    My first time here and this is officially my favorite ramen in Seattle. The broth was so rich and it had the perfect spice for me. The best part was the ramen wasn't even my favorite part of the meal. The signature tamari set was excellent. Each temaki was unique and delicious. I will absolutely be returning here. Eastlake is under construction but don let that deter you. They validate parking in the garage, or you can likely find a spot nearby in the side streets.

    Chirashi bowl

    Sushi Nori was recommended on TikTok to me as part of a Seattle itinerary. It is in the suburbs northeast of Seattle so it's out-of-the-way if you're hanging out around downtown as a tourist. We made a reservation at noon & when we came in it was pretty much empty, except one big family so we were unsure if the place was going to be a hit. The restaurant has a very clean aesthetic, although towards the middle of our meal of big fly, was flying around and bothering us . The tone was set by the salmon carpaccio. It is on the bed of fried sweet potato strings topped with jalapeños, furikake, in a single dot of Sriracha. We barely tasted any dressing of the sorts. It was more like a sashimi. There was nothing really standing out from this. Our chirashi bowl arrived after. The main stand out was the rice. It was perfectly cooked and had a perfect texture and chew. The waitress didn't really point out which fish was what, so for the white fishes we weren't sure which one was aji. I think for the price point for the chirashi bowl it was very worth it. The Uni was not fishy although the scallop was a little fishy. The rest of the fish was good quality. But maybe we should've just ordered the hand rolls.

    It's time to use up the quarterly Resy credit so my boyfriend and I went to Sushi Nori! I went a couple years ago but it was his first time there. We split the Spicy Tuna Chips, Chicken Karaage, a Signature Temaki Set, and a Chirashi Bowl. The tuna chips were great, great crunch and flavor which made us excited to try the other items! Chicken was seasoned well and very juicy. I'm glad we ended up getting only 1 temaki set because they were filling!! Chirashi bowl had just the amount of rice and perfectly sliced pieces of fish. Pro tip: 90-minutes of validated parking after 6pm on weekdays!! We did not look beforehand and ended up doing street parking, which wasn't terrible, but had to circle around a lot to find. It made for a great walk after since we were stufffffed

    A cozy sushi spot tucked into the heart of Eastlake -- everything was delicious and I liked that the sushi came wrapped so you could eat at your own pace without it getting soggy. I liked the temaki set, favorites were Scallop and Bluefin Tuna, they're all solid and not skimpy on portions. Spicy Tuna Chip appetizer was fantastic too!

    There was a waitlist but they were very prompt to seat us and take our order. There is bar seating available for smaller parties. I was interested in this place because of the variety and uniqueness of items on their menu. We tried the black sesame ramen, takoyaki, and calamari, but next time I'd also be interested in trying their hand rolls.

    Temaki set
    Staci F.

    Amazing food and service! Convenient garage parking right next to the restaurant with 2hr free parking. Had the signature temaki set but subbed out the tempura shrimp for the unagi. Of all the rolls, the unagi was my favorite. Amazing flavor and texture! But all the other rolls in the set were delicious! For dessert we had the mango crepe cake which was perfect. Not too sweet and quite refreshing. The matcha tiramisu was also a must try.

    Is the restaurant kid friendly? Can it accommodate a group of 10?

    The handrolls might be hard for kids to navigate as they all have a plastic wrapped seaweed that needs to be taken off before enjoying. The restaurant seems to be best for up to 6 guests as it's quit small. I would not recommend for kids but you…

You should prepare your entire party ahead of time to stretch their vocal cords before your night out, otherwise you will not be able to hear each other. I'm not sure what is going on with the acoustics inside of Umi, but it is insanely loud (it might not be that way for everyone though, I do have a hearing problem). Umi is the Japanese word for ocean, which is very fitting since you can order any fish possible here. And somehow, my homie that I was with decided to order a steak. I can't fault him, he was ravenous at the time. Admittedly, the steak looked fantastic as well. My other homie is a vegetarian. And even though this is not the most vegetarian-friendly establishment, he was still able to have a nice meal. He explained to me that he is a tofu connoisseur, so we ordered the Agedashi tofu. I've never had tofu prepared this way, and it was some of the best I've ever had. It was bathing in a dashi broth, which was the perfect level of saltiness, almost like a miso soup. The tofu was fried, and when you let it sit in the broth for a bit, it creates a fantastic consistency to each bite. In order to test the true caliber of a sushi spot, you have to try a specialty roll. I was feeling a little spicy that day, so I elected for the Knockout. It didn't exactly knock me out, but I was impressed. First of all, this roll was a looooooong boy special. I always prefer sushi to be made this way, because if a roll is only 6 pieces, the experience is over far too quickly. The roll itself was very enjoyable, and I even convinced Mr Steak to have a bite (he seemed to like it too). A little bit of truffle oil took this thing to the next level, they're definitely innovating in the world of sushi over here. I'd love to come back and try more rolls from the extensive menu here. Maybe something like the Hottie Roll, which was my nickname in high school.

    I wanted to go out for sushi with my parents, so i settled on this place. great gem in cap hill…read more loved the little japanese tea garden in the middle of the restaurant. lots of seating, and there were still people waiting on a Wednesday night. the servers were attentive and speedy. they brought some edamame over. delicious. No notes or critiques I love edamame. To drink, I had one of their specialty cocktails. It was their take on a spicy Marg. It was honestly a stellar drink. It was a perfect balance of citrus and spice. I would order this drink again without a doubt good presentation too. We had the toro sampler which came with three different types of Toro with three different toppings. It was cool to get to try the different types of Toro, and I enjoyed tasting them side-by-side to see the differences. The toppings were one of their house, sauces, fried garlic, and chives. I enjoyed the house sauce the best. I was also looking forward to the Crispy Rice which came with crispy rice w/ salmon roe, wasabi aioli, & aonori with spicy tuna. You could choose what type of fish went on it, but obviously we got tuna. This was a yummy bite. Came out piping hot. Beautiful presentation. The tuna was perfectly prepared. The salmon roll was an interesting touch but actually worked well. I think it's sacrilegious to go out for sushi and not get miso soup, so We also added a miso soup to our order. Solid miso soup. No critiques. Came out piping hot. Because I felt like we needed a vegetable, we had the House Spring Mix which came with mixed greens, cherry tomatoes & cucumber w/ spicy garlic ponzu. I enjoy the salad dressings at Japanese restaurants because I feel like they're very distinct. I don't think this one was as distinct, but it was still good. The cherry tomatoes weren't mushy at all, which I appreciated. I do enjoy a spring mix, but Romain or arugula will always have my heart. Moving onto rolls. We started with the Capitol Hill Roll which came with snow crab mix, avocado & cucumber topped w/ seared salmon, scallions, tobiko, sweet aioli, sweet chili & soy glaze. This was my favorite roll of the night, but I would love to go back and try some of their other rolls. They have a huge menu. I love a sushi that has seared salmon, but IDK if that still makes it sushi. My dad loves asparagus, so we got the El Diablo shrimp tempura, shibazuke & asparagus topped w/ seared snow crab legs, pico de gallo & chipotle. It wasn't the most traditional roll, but I did enjoy it. I probably wouldn't order it again when there's so many other good things to try on their menu, but Im glad that I got to try two rolls. Because we're celebrating my mom's birthday, they brought ice cream. It was a solid ice cream, even though we just got vanilla. It had good flavoring, even for vanilla.

    If you love sushi, this is now on your food bucket list. Don't question me…read more We came about 45 minutes before it closed. Had two boxes made for 18 pieces. They weight your sushi to calculate the cost so you can go as much or as little as you'll like. When in line, you should go to the front to quickly to see what's available so you can mentally figure out which ones you want then go back to your spot. The line moves very quickly so think fast! After picking your box, you go down the bar and fill your box as you go. Then when you reach at the end of the bar they weigh your sushi. Our boxes was ~$48 total. Then against the wall, you get your utensils, Ginger, wasabi , soy sauce , or eel sauce. There are some seats inside and outside.. but it is so busy , most people take their boxes to go. We sat against the windows and the table was slightly dirty but that's because we took the seats as soon as someone left them. There wasn't much seating left. They spoil you soooo much with their sushi. They had a great ratio of sushi:nonsushi and sometimes more so in your favor. Near the end I was so full I ended up eating the nonsushi bits off the rice and, surprisingly , it was still a heavily amount per sushi.

The popular sashimi plate had sockeye salmon, scallops, king salmon, yellowtail, snapper, and shima aji. 3-4 slices per fish so total about 20ish pieces for $ 75 dollars. Also included salmon roe. Ask which fish is in the plate since it seems to change. Service was good. They serve distilled water which is appropriate for eating raw dish so you actually taste the fish and not the tap water. The star of the night was the miso black cod. Soft buttery and flavorful. Just enough miso to bring out the sweetness of the fish. Some may find it not flavorful enough. It depends on if you are looking for fish flavor or seasoning flavor in my opinion. The only down side is that it's a fatty cut of fish so by the third piece it can be a bit heavy. Ended up cutting the fat with a bit of lemon toward the end and using the shredded pink diakon. For the price of $ 17 dollars, it is quite a good deal as other spots in the area would charge more or give less.

I was around the corner (literally) at a cafe, learning about the history of Seattle's Japantown, when I decided to look up recommendations of restaurants in the district to eat at. Maneki came up, and right after I read about how difficult it is to eat there as a walk-in without a reservation, I looked at the time and realized they were about to open for the evening. So I thought, "challenge accepted," and was in front of their doors in about 30 seconds. There was no one waiting and I was pretty shocked; it wasn't until 5:00 on the nose that other people walked up and got in line behind me, most without reservations. So if you're trying to do a walk-up, don't wait until 5:00 to get in line. Get there early. The owner was nice when I told her I didn't have a reservation and she said while all her tables were full, she had bar seating open if I was interested. I said yes, so I was seated in the Hannya Room (and happened to be wearing my Yakuza Majima sukajan with a hannya on the back) with a handful of other people (bar seating is very limited, maybe 12 seats tops, and the room is very narrow). The bartender was cool and offered to take our phones and take photos of the specials on the wall in the foyer so we all didn't have to walk back over there. I actually ended up getting one of the specials, the chicken katsu cutlet with beef curry. From the regular menu, I got a yaki onigiri and some gyoza (which are described as grandma's recipe and handmade), and from the bar I ordered the reggae punch cocktail (Iichiko saiten shochu, peach schnapps, and cold brew oolong tea). The regular menu is extensive, with a lot of comfort dishes and signature dishes I haven't seen elsewhere. Whether you want meat or seafood, there's something for everyone here. The meal was absolutely delicious. The only thing I didn't care for, unfortunately, was the yaki onigiri, because I felt the shoyu they used was just way too sweet. Yaki onigiri is one of my most favorite things on the planet, and Ippuku in Berkeley makes them perfectly. I was expecting the one at Maneki to be on that level, but I was disappointed. But other than that, the curry had great flavor and bit of a kick of heat, and wasn't skimpy on the beef. Lots of potato, too. The katsu was breaded and fried perfectly and the cutlet was pretty generously sized. The gyoza were great, not oily, each one stuffed with meat. I enjoyed the reggae punch and would order it again. I also ordered a glass of iced oolong, so I was feeling pretty refreshed on this warm afternoon with my two drinks. The bartender, who was handling both drinks and food service, was a nice guy with a good sense of humor. The owner also chatted with me on my way out and gave me a little history about why they decided to name the bar the Hannya Room, and some background on all the hannya masks on the wall in the bar. I'd love to come back here the next time I'm in Seattle, but especially to be able to dine in one of the tatami rooms. This was a great meal and it was awesome being able to support this important part of the local history of Seattle's Japantown.
