The omakasa is a must while a nice glass of sake or wine will pair well with your meal. Highly recommend and will be going back“

“One of the best sushi restaurants I’ve been part of!“

“Amazing, will go back in the next trip to Seattle“

“Tried this very special “takeout only omakase sushi box”, Edomae style ( use cured/aged fish, and red vinegar seasoning in rice). The executive chef, chef Ryo, has worked in many renowned restaurant including Michelin star sushi restaurant “Sushi Sho”. Before joining this new restaurant “Ltd Edition Sushi” in capitol hill, he worked side by side with chef Nakazawa-an icon of edomae style in Japan, at both Sushi Sho Tokyo and Sushi Sho Honolulu. The sushi omakase box and kids fish bowl are both very sophisticated, the curing and aging techniques brings out the deep complex flavor of each fish and gives each fish this extra tender texture, the taste profile as such is hard to find here in Seattle. Chef sake flight ( we tried Haneya Junmai Ginjo and Hidakami Junmai today), one is floral and one on the dry side, pair with his sushi very well. Sushi is in a very elegant wooden box and everything you will need for the experience including a separate soy sauce dipping dish is prepared for the guest. This is, truly, a perfect omakase takeout experience. 💕💕😋“

“Could only show 10 of the 25 dishes served! Becoming my favorite omakase in the Seattle area!“

“Great food and friendly service. Love that all seafood options are sustainably-sourced!“

“This was, without a doubt, the best sushi I have ever had in my life. I would go here every day of my life if I could.“

“We were in the city for an event and wanted some sushi before heading home. This place had great reviews and I can see why. It's pretty unassuming from the outside but the staff were prompt and friendly. The sushi tasted very fresh and the menu/flavors branched far enough from basic. We had a few items and loved them all. The ocean queen roll was my wife's favorite roll she's ever had. No alcohol available, but we'll definitely be back next time we're in the area!“

“The store's service is attentive and the workmanship is very detailed and painstaking.“

“I've been to Migoto a few times with my husband and we have consistently enjoyed my experiences. The atmosphere is super cozy and the service is friendly and attentive. Every roll and dish I've had has been good, with the Samurai and Caterpillar rolls being standouts. The Japanese cocktails are also a highlight, especially the Lady Apple made with nigiri - definitely worth trying. We will definitely keep returning.“

“I ordered the Sushi Deluxe, and it was hands down the best sushi I’ve had in a long time! The nigiri was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared, and the chef’s choice roll was flavorful. Everything was perfectly balanced and presented with care. The quality definitely exceeded my expectations for the price. Highly recommend this spot if you’re craving quality sushi. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“ほんまに美味しかったです。皆さん仮装していらっしゃって楽しいディナーでした。❤️🎃“

“❤️‍🔥🍣🐟❤️‍🔥My husband and I are sushi lovers through and through, definitely team seafood over meat!
Our omakase experience at Suzuki was absolutely incredible. Of course, the food was amazing, but what made it truly special was the entire experience, from the service to the atmosphere.

Everyone who served us, including the chefs, was so kind, warm, and genuinely happy to be there. You could really feel the positive energy and strong bond among the staff, which made the whole dining experience even more enjoyable.

Each dish was beautifully presented and came with thoughtful explanations, adding so much depth to the meal. It was a feast not just for the taste buds, but also for the eyes and ears. The ambiance was simply perfect.

Without a doubt, it was the best birthday dinner I’ve ever had.

Thank you😍❣️❣️“

“Chef is nice and friendly. Sushi-wise I was hoping for something more, it started really well and 4 nigiri are high lights and impressed me, the yozi scallop one brings you right into summer, and the one wrapped in clear Hokkaido seaweed feels like a fresh bite of ocean, apple wood smoked salmon has the perfect balance of smokiness. Oysters nigiri is really fresh and well done.
However, it didn’t go uphill as omakase usually do where next nigiri tastes even better, towards the second half of course some nigiri feels unbalanced, or even too salty because of overpowering source, hand roll is one of them.. desert didn’t wow me unfortunately.

Overall good experience but I was really hoping it could be beyond just good.“

“My grandsons say this is the best food they have ever eaten in their whole life. The fried chicken was perfectly crisp yet perfectly moist; the short ribs were exquisite; the pot stickers and sushi were great. We loved our flavors, food, and experience and will always come back. One grandson says he would take a plane from anywhere in the world just to come back here.“

“Wow I visited this place for my bday to do something unique for my 40th and it was just what a wanted and more. I felt special for my day ! Didnt have to think about the menu because everything was good even the bartenders choice drinks ! The staff was professional and friendly spoke spoken . I think they only seat 8 at a time so it’s pretty intimate and comfortable.“

“I love Sushi Kappo Tamura and Taichi!! I have a hard time eating sushi anywhere else.“

“Shiva provided the best service I’ve ever had at a sushi restaurant. Michael came in to relieve him and made sure we were fully satiated with our meals. Both Shiva and Michael gave us a great conversation and delicious food. Some of the best presented sushi as well. I’ll definitely be back. I would give this a 10⭐️if I could.“

“Amazing food and service!“

“Very fresh sushi. And it's all you can eat. So literally order as much as your stomach can hold. Came with a friend and we were able to enjoy 4-6 plates plus miso soup, edamame, and salad. Obviously we were hungry, and for a flat rate, it was totally worth it. Employees are friendly and service was quick; simply order from their tablet. Seattle sushi is to die for, and this place is no different. Keep in mind you'll probably have to pay for parking unless you're on foot.“

“Excellent sushi and service !“

“Amazing variety and absolutely delicious selections! I only eat cooked, and they had SO much to choose from. The woman working the register was super friendly and pointed out every single cooked option. Priced at $15/pound, I spent just under $18 and ended up not being able to finish my tray.“

“My husband and I have been coming here for six years pretty regularly. The food is always delicious and in good portions, and we always love chatting with the friendly staff and owner! The sushi is always fresh and amazing. My husband loves the curries, and we both love the bento boxes!“

“We will be back! Some of the freshest sushi we have had in a while in the south end. Reasonably priced and good portions. Service was super friendly and so fast. Food came out very quickly. We were checked in on multiple times.
Right when we sat we were offered a warm cloth and complimentary miso soup.
Rainbow roll had very fresh fish on top, Jumping Ebi had great texture , Monkey Brain had a lot of avocado, and the Spicy Tuna wasn’t overly seasoned and had good flavor.“

“Spicy tuna, crispy rice, you’re tired and is chasing the dragon.“

“Fantastic and yummy rolls! 5 ⭐️“

“I tried to get a reservation for my friend’s birthday in August, but it looked like there were some issues with Tock, the reservation system they use. That said, I truly think Taneda did their best to handle the situation as quickly and gracefully as possible. Sometimes life happens, tech issues are out of anyone’s control.

Although I wasn’t able to get a spot at the 11 AM and 11:45 AM open reservation time, I’m happy my friend was able to grab one after I stopped trying. I’ll definitely keep supporting this restaurant and will try again for my husband’s birthday in the future!

As for the food, this is hands down the best sushi I’ve had in Seattle. If I could eat here every month, I would. The staff is super friendly and the seafood is incredibly fresh. There were some seafood dishes I had never tried before, and every single one was a 10/10. I usually don’t even like uni, but the one they served didn’t have that oceany taste, it was so clean and buttery. Their sake selection was also really good!

Can’t wait to come back!“

“I enjoyed the high quality cuts of fish and unique dishes like the beni-tenshi parfait! Totally worth going just for dessert.“

“Such a great atmosphere! Owner is fantastic. Highly recommend all the food, sushi was so good. Thank you!“

“good service decent prices“

“Great foods and awesome service!“

“I drove around during my lunch break yesterday and decided to give this place a try. Overall, the service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. I ordered the sashimi set, which came with complimentary miso soup, I believe. The portion was more than enough for me. Everything was fresh and delicious—I'll definitely be back. Highly recommended!“

“We absolutely love this place! An unassuming entrance, advertising and room. And then you get the sushi…it’s amazing! We’ve had excellent service and creative and delicious rolls (we love the Norwegian roll!). This is our local sushi spot!“

“Unassuming hidden gem. Incredible value for high-quality sushi.
Prices are very fair. The sushi box sets and the chirashi are particularly good deals.
Cuts are generously thick, fresh, and flavorful.
Been eating here for years and am still impressed every time.“

“I definitely like it 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻“

“This is by far the best sushi I've ever had in my life. Definitely the best sushi restaurant in all of WA state. A hole-in-the-wall gem! If you find this place, you are blessed by the sushi gods. Every time my husband and I go to a different sushi restaurant, we always think - we should have just gone to Rolls and Rolls. The Salmon Platter is so buttery and the fish melts in your mouth, the texture is just divine. The miso soup is so refreshing, and their specialty rolls all have perfect proportions and are well made.

The service is some of the best I've ever experienced at any restaurant - it's a family owned place and the son is the waiter. He is very courteous and careful about when he comes over to ask how things are going, and always seems to come at the perfect times when we need something.

The atmosphere is great, only a few tables, and classical music playing in the background. You can see the parents making the sushi right there and they will greet you and say goodbye as well when you leave.

If there is one sushi restaurant I could recommend, it would be this one. It's a must-try.

Parking: Parking is very easy, there is a parking garage right next to this place with plenty of open spots always.“

“This used to be a excellent beer bar serving amazing beer with mediocre food. Then it changed owners and they started serving solid sushi and still serving amazing beer. They changed chefs earlier this year and they are one of the best sushi restaurants who happens to serve amazing beer. They do sell out of specialty dishes (e g., Ankimo: monkfish liver pate) which is how it should be for delicasies.“

“I love everything about this place! the owners, the food, the hospitality, the atmosphere! my partner and I stumbled upon this place a few years ago and now we go every chance we get! delicious sushi, amazing sauces, huge menu. love love love!“

“Didn’t even have the chance to photograph the bowls, they were so good! Highly recommend the Chojang Poke, it’s with the very special Chojang sauce which takes the bowl to another level! Black Sesame Tofu is another good choice especially for vegetarian. You can use all the stools and couches in the lobby so enjoy the meal!“

“It was a truly amazing dining experience. I recently visited with my family, and it certainly will not be our last visit. The food was incredibly delicious and offered excellent value. We were particularly impressed by the quality of the fresh seafood and sea urchin. I also had the pleasure of meeting the manager, who was exceptionally kind and clearly passionate about his work, paying attention to even the smallest details, such as sourcing fresh ginger and preparing it himself. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment, and the service provided by the hospitality team was delightful. It is definitely a must-visit destination.“

“a must visit not just sushi we came here every morning for a amazing English breakfast at a great price 7.50 euros for a big full breakfast or smaller one 4.50 euros,also do sandwiches 🥪 with fries ect best food around at sea front opposite the hand ✋️ 😋 highly recommended and I do alot of reviews big thanks terry and vanessa from the uk“

“Best sushi in town open late“

“This is way overdue, we’ve been coming to Tsui since they opened. Before Covid when we were eating in-house, to making sure they made it through Covid. It’s always been our go to sushi place. They are amazing and always have been. I highly recommend eating in-house, but if you need good sushi to go order ahead and drop by grab your food and enjoy. We will miss them when we are gone.“

“Outstanding experience! The service was exceptional friendly, attentive, and made my birthday celebration feel extra special. Every dish was fresh and full of flavor, from the sushi rolls to the appetizers. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food and top-notch hospitality!“

“Great place!! Food and service is excellent!“

“We just stopped in for drinks, but the food looked amazing. Drinks were great and reasonably priced. Friendly staff and cool decor.“

“Had a tasty lunch! Thank you!“

“Perfect portions for great prices! Really loves the Olympia roll, tuna Nigiri, and mango Mochi!“
