This was one of the best omakase experiences I've ever had. The chef truly understands fish and takes diners on a thoughtful journey, explaining how each piece was selected, aged, and prepared. Watching him prepare and plate the dishes is a mesmerizing experience. The atmosphere feels very intimate, almost like you’re having dinner at a friend's elegant home—provided that your friend has access to some of the finest fish available. I highly recommend it and will definitely return.

The sushi exceeded my expectations. I ordered the take-away omakase, and both the fish and rice were fantastic. This place is better than 95% of sushi restaurants in the USA.

This is one of my favorite sushi spots in the Seattle area! I can’t wait to visit again in the fall. Food: 5/5

The sushi is excellent and priced very reasonably. They prepare their own wasabi, which is the best I've ever had. The owner is very kind, and the service is great. Overall, I’d rate the food a perfect 5/5.
