Great sushi and great Kansai comfort food

by kinaidos at Citysearch

The restaurant is under new owndership (a8 months now) and they've made a significant improvement on the quality of the food.

We had some very fresh very good quality chutoro, hirmame, hotate and uni, and the rest of the fish was quite fresh and above average.

We also had the Tuna Poke (excellent), an Okonomiyaki (best I've had in Seattle - far better than Tsukushinbo's e.g.), and a mixed tempura (better than many I've had). All in all both the kitchen and the itamae are great.

There's a lot of commitment here as well. The manager and itamae are both co-owners and newlyweds.

It is a strip-mall store front, and it's clean and tidy inside but somewhat plain. The prices reflect that though, which also makes this one of the best bargains in great sushi in Seattle.

Perfect Japanese Restaurant.

by JapaneseDiner at Citysearch

The food there is highly delicious after the new manager had took over. I've gone for many years and the food tastes GREAT! Even though the location may not be as good, the food is not expensive and tastes delicous that can fill you up. You have to try the Special. This Japanese Restaurant is probably better than any others located in Seattle since many of them are expensive and does not fill you up with great food. Very Nice Staffs =] ! Keep up the Great work!

• Pros: Special, Kitchen food, Sushi, Sashimi, Almost Everything!
• Cons: Location

Stay away from the raw fish there

by eelneb at Citysearch

Have been there before, the lunch bento special is usually pretty good and nicely priced. We ordered the Bento with sushi and sashimi, the hot food was good but the raw fish smelled/tasted fishy (a really bad sign). Didn't think anything of it so I ate it all. Felt terrible all afternoon and had to skip dinner. It was a case of food poisxxing. I knew someone who got sick there before but didn't think it would happen to me. If you go, make sure you order the hot food only unless if you want to take the risk of getting food poisxxing.

• Pros: The only Japanese restaurant in that area
• Cons: Fish not fresh, smell and taste fishy (a sign of unfresh raw fish)
