Celeste Thayer

Omakase is amazing, and they have some of the freshest and most unique sashimi collections - very seasonal - just wonderful!

Riona MacNamara

Go here often. They'll create you a platter of delicious vegan sushi without complaint, and there's a lot of veg*n ippan options too. Love. Drinks are okay

Bill Caples

Went because all other sushi bars I tried to get into were booked . I'm glad I did! Friendly and professional service , freshest of sushi and sashimi , tasty cooked foods. I'll be back!!

AmateurConcierge

Great sushi spot . Sashimi quality was fantastic. Their cooked cod sushi is great (nigiri and black dragon roll ). Oyster and shishitos were better than normal

Seattle Met

Taichi Kitamura is the terrific sushi chef who gave us Chiso and Chiso Kappo (now closed). If those were good restaurants , his Eastlake sushi bar and omakase house is a great one. Read more

Jen Au

The sushi here is amazing, especially the black cod . Don't skip out on dessert , it is on par with everything else you will have for dinner .

Ly Le

I only went here during the Seattle Restaurant Week as they have the best value of menu possible. Definitely worth it!

Lauren Cunningham

LOVED the Thursday Tonkatsu lunch set. Took me right back to Tokyo. Only on Thursdays and HIGHLY recommend.

Eka Belle

Neah bay idiot fish netsuke - beyond expectations, as well as great chef 's choice sashimi . Sake list is wonderfully organized with proper origin indication.

Brian Merz

My favorite somewhat more affordable . Not the most impressive atmosphere, but also sustainable fish , and always pretty easy to get into.

Eater

Sitting at the sushi bar guarantees both lively banter and mind-blowing sashimi . The sushi wares are dazzling, but don't overlook the menu of cooked dishes. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

The yuzu ginger tea was really good. All the food we tried was great

Mariko L.

Order anything and prepare to be delighted. But come on the weekends for their Japanese style breakfasts and prepare to have your mind blown.

Patrick Boyce

I like sitting at the bar and love the chef recommendations. Local Sustainable selection menu is really nice option!

Taija Tevia-Clark

Neat variety of dishes you don't see very often, and the fish is excellent

Cisel Olcer

One of the best sushi restaurants in the U.S. for dessert , crème brûlée chestnut and butterscotch is highly recommended...

Mirek Nowak

Fantastic Omakase1 And a great staff that really make the dining experience enjoyable.

Mauricio Plaschinski

We ate sashimi , sushi , etc... all was phenomenal!

Jon Lee

Honestly it was sub par. We ordered the scallop roll , the Seattle roll, and a couple other things. The Seattle roll's salmon was minced and not great, the rice was not great, and lunch was $40.

Changren Yong

The BEST Japanese lunch in town on weekends. Get one of the lunch sets and you won't regret it.

Grace Pak

Everything was very tasty and fresh! Service wasn't the best though.

The Seattle Times

Sushi Kappo Tamura's food is rooted in Japanese concepts, but has an American exuberance. A list of specials is printed daily to accommodate seasonal tweaks and available ingredients. Read more

Michael E. Gruen

Omakase is generous and great

Peter Hanna

pretty good sushi . be warned though, the good (and the omakase in particular) is pricey .

Katharine Nunn

Everything we had was delicious

Drew Milam

Good, fresh, and expensive sushi . Apps/sharing plates are small, and over-priced.

Sean Thayer

Omakase is the best in Seattle!

Emilio D'Angelo Yofre

The BEST omakase in town .

The omakase is an experience to be had. Put your trust in Taichi and all will be well .

Michael E

Let the chef decide.

Hal Wyman

Nigiri , sashimi

Celeste Thayer

You will never regret getting the omakase . Read more

Jeff Ree

Minimal roll selection, lacking in basics - no edamame , non-standard (not great) miso - fish quality is run of the mill Seattle.. Shiku, Umi, -even I Love Sushi - are all better choices. Overpriced.

Lisa Jones

Excellent service but pricey

Dave Bush

Have the chef 's tasting menu .

Roger L

Try the Hou Hou Shu Sparking Sake .
