The Scene – Chef Mashiko enlists college kids to turn out surprisingly well-executed, colorful sushi to Gap-clad regulars. A tad larger than intimate, tables are set close enough to share food with neighbors. One look at the bleached, minimalist decor will have you mentally paging through an Ikea catalog. Service is always courteous. – – The Food – The Tiger Eye is a great starter--raw tuna wrapped tightly around fresh salmon roe, then deep-fried. Diners who vow to "try anything" might order the Moriawase, the chef's choice of sushi and sashimi, a broad selection of…

Wouldn't even take my order??!
by sorceress
I thought i'd give these guys a try as their reviews & website looked pretty impressive.
I'm on bedrest with a newborn so I order take-out for my fiance to pick up for us. I put my order together off their on-line menu figuring it's out there as a means to order take-out. But, when I called it in, they wouldn't even take my order, saying they were too busy. So, I went to Azuma down the street--again--where they happily took my order with a short wait of only 20 minutes. Last time I stray.
- Cons: no take-out?

Rude Staff

The sushi might be good but we could never get past the waitstaff's terrible attitude.
They try overly hard to be cutesy and hip and fall flat on their face.
Never again.
- Cons: Rude Service

YUM!

I went here for the first time this past weekend as a change of pace from my regular sushi place, and I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious everything was. My eyes lit up as I ate the Albacore Nigiri, which is the best I've had anywhere in Seattle. We tried a few other pieces of nigiri and ordered two rolls, all of which were delicious. The sake menu was impressive as well, with an entire page devoted to sake! There were easily over 20 different types of sake to try.
I will definitely be adding this place to my list of sushi joints.
- Pros: Variety of Rolls, Long Sake Menu, Friendly Servers
