The best values are the combo dinners , which are under $20 and include sunomono, miso , rice , tea , and fruit for dessert ; the sakana dinner with salt-broiled mackerel is fantastic. Read more

Get there right when they open, sit at the bar , order some Sapporos and start making your way through the specials written on the cabinet. Then, prepare for mind expansion.

Getting seats at this 107-year-old Japanese restaurant can be an utter puzzlement, but should you crack the code, the mind-boggling list of specials are where it's at. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

Everything here was absolutely delicious. Had miso black cod collar (best fish I've ever had), tuna tartare , sea kelp hijiki, and clams sake broth. One of my all time favorite restaurants .

Black cod is a must as usual. Also check out their chirashi bowl since you could customize your choice of fish

The truly-great-granddaddy of Japanese restaurants . Stuffs savory "doughnut-holes" with bits of octopus , sprinkled them with bonito flakes and called it tako-yaki. Read more

Nice service. Usually need to reserve but I got lucky with Walk in. Salmon is fresh and I love Tekka don! The miso soup is tasty too. $25-35 per person usually.

Try the Black Cod Kasuzuke - A must here at Maneki. Amazing flavors and texture. Marinated in kasu (the lees of sake ) and grilled, the cod transforms into little succulent bites of heaven. (via @Food

Fresh, top-quality sushi and sashimi at an unbeatable price. Amaebi w/ it's deep fried head, geoduck, scallop , uni and much more. One of the most traditional and authentic Japanese restaurants .

Spicy tuna roll and chicken yakisoba were good in a small, old-fashioned space. I think it's the oldest restaurant in Seattle.

It does not get more old-school in Seattle than the century-old Maneki, a homey haunt of homely delights kept in line Read more

Text (425) 954-6469 to reserve . Thought the chirashi was pretty good, but I’d pass on the black cod next time (not hot or delicately flaky enough)

Cod definitely lived up to its reputation. Salmon super fresh as well .

The oldest continually operated Japanese restaurant on the West Coast, Maneki has been open for 107 years and counting.

Ummm, everything. Especially: broiled cod , sashimi , seafood salad , unagi don.

"The absolute king of 'how the hell is this so cheap ' in Seattle is the miso-glazed black cod collar at Maneki. $7.50 for what would be easily twice that at almost any other restaurant ."

Try the Black Cod Kasuzuke - I can't seem to resist this every time. Black Cod , you're too good + a soba soup on the side. And Barley Shochu .

Sashimi fresher than this only exists in the ocean itself. Many other Japanese delicacies. To say the prices are fair is a serious understatement.

Come here for fresh, delicious homestyle Japanese food at prices that won't crush your wallet. Thumbs up to the sassy ladies that run this place!

All time favorite sushi place, even though it is a dive. It isn't necessarily creative, but more or less traditional, big pieces, affordable , and fresh!
