I’m not saying this food is changing my life, but it might be. I’ve had the pleasure of having several meals here now, and not once have I been even remotely dissatisfied. The oko spud was a combo I didn’t know I needed but now probably can’t live without. The curried egg salad sandwich was immaculate. The special cheeseburger I inhaled with the feral enthusiasm of a woodland child raised by wolves & zero table manners.
Beyond the kitchen wizardry, Kenzo is wildly generous & clearly pours so much love into every bite; The kind of person who feeds your stomach AND your soul. If you’re lucky enough to grab a meal here, just know you’re in for something magical (& possibly life-altering).

We walked by and would’ve kept walking but someone sitting at the counter said it’s a great spot so we decided to try it. Did not disappoint! Got the pickle plate and spuds plate. Definitely not what we expected but phenomenal.

OMGGGGGGG!!!! Go for lunch immediately! The menu is donation based - with suggested donations listed - and worth double! My partner and I made it a point to go for lunch on a trip last weekend to Astoria and it was the best meal we had the whole trip!!!!!!!!! We shared the yakisoba, mushroom congee, some picked mushrooms with kimchi and a little tea. We sat at the window and talked with Chef Kenzo about food, philosophy, and living in all the places before coming home to the PNW. Do yourself a huge favor and make eating there a top priority. Thank you Kenzo!

Incredibly delicious food with amazing ingredients. This man cares about food in a way that sets everything about this place apart. Truly a unique and unforgettable experience. I seriously doubt that you could ever go wrong here. I eat here every chance I get. I tell everyone that I can about this place. I haven't felt this way about a restaurant since Uriah was around. Actually, I'm more excited about Busu because I'm older and I understand how rare it is to find someone so committed to such a unique vision.
Awesome food. If you can catch him while he's open you definitely won't be disappointed

I've traveled the world eating food while in the Air Force. Kento is a food genius, this is an unforgettable and distinguished food experience as authentic as it possibly gets! Locally sourced ingredients make it a real stand out, a wonderful business to support.
