Absolutely amazing (my top 2) sushi restaurant . I tried Omikaze nigiri , salmon tartar , jalapeño hamachi , and chicken karage . Fantastic service too. My fav restaurant in Seattle so far.

Jiexi Cao

Great happy hour menu . Get the sashimi platter . Sit at the bar in the dining area; there's a really cool sushi chef .

Micaela Pierce

My favorite sushi place! Beautiful garden in the back and the dinner happy hour features a rotating roll that is always delicious. Get there right at 4 (or 10 for late night ) to skip the wait.

Kaitlin

Fresh sushi . Beautiful atmosphere. Friendly service . It's wonderful anytime, but happy hour (4-6pm, every day!) is truly a steal!

Moe Dexler

Had a transcendent meal here. The Halibut cheeks are amazing and the Albacore Belly (when available) is something else not to miss. Other mentionables include Garlic Short Ribs and salmon skin roll .

kristine manuel

Captures the greatness of sushi with simplicity! Huge rolls, endless list of options, great crafted cocktails , and a dope setting for gathering large groups. Oh yeah, try the green tea tiramisu . YUM.

Sam D

Such great ambiance and the fish is absolutely world-class, try the combo meal that has a bit of everything you would want from a sushi restaurant .

Carl Moukarzel

Their specialty rolls are delicious! They also have a nice happy hour menu which includes both sushi’s and drinks. Highly recommended!

Mollie

This place is expensive , so it's great if you can catch hh! It goes until 7 in the bar area, but get there early if possible. Vino Verde, ginger chicken , unagi roll, crunchy rolls are all delicious.

Mouni Reddy

I got the Rock star and it was amazing!! The Slow Lightning cocktail is great too if you like Mezcal . Service was slow but it was a Saturday night and I was sitting at the bar .

Bethany Luck-Hutson

So many delish rolls here! My faves are the 007 and the Samurai Spirit. Hubby loves the Bad Boy. Kiddos love the Crunchy Cali and the Crunchy Seattle.

Mingfei Yan

Fusion sushi but done right. The only thing I don't like is the sweet type of sushi they made- everything else is great. Love the Japanese garden in the middle of the restaurant .

cYeNz

Beautiful inner garden . Great: sashimi cuts, Sapporo on draft , Uni sushi with added uzura, kurobuta. Good: nigiri sushi , udon , soft shell crab . Ok: green tea tiramisu . Rolls were meh..

Seijung Park

Had the calamari , ginger chicken , tempura platter, temari crispy rice with uni, 14-pcs omakase sashimi , and street fighter roll. Was disappointed with everything except the roll...

Nancy Wu

Awesome rolls, great service, and beautiful view if you sit by the garden ! Cant go wrong with omakaze sashimi and oyster shooters :)

Dany Jolly

Cute and fun sushi restaurant . Way bigger inside then it looks from the street. Great food in a great setting.

Try the Sounder Roll, one of 40 specialty rolls . This one's a spicy yellowtail/avocado number is topped w/ a seared crab & creamy scallop mix. Read more

This is my favorite Seattle sushi spot , they have two happy hours every day, from 4pm-6pm, and from 10pm-12:30am daily. Order ANYTHING. It's all good.

The grilled portobello mushroom is amazing! It's rich and meaty without the grease. I love meat but this is even better.

Try the sashimi Omakase , it’s fresh and great quality fish .

sushi was very good, but the 60 omakase didn't feel as worth it compared to other places

Erin Mosow

The rolls are enormous! Try the sashimi-sockeye is great. Sit at the sushi bar and the chefs make great recs.
