“Had a Great Experience. Would definitely Recommend.“

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

“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. 💕💕😋“

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

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

“Placed an online order and didn’t realize how close it was to closing time. The person who packed my order was so kind, made sure everything was packed neatly, and the food was delicious. 10/0 will definitely be back again. Thank you so much 🩷“

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

“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.“

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

“A very nice experience today with nice service and nice ambience. I'm not a big sushi fan but there are many other nice options too here. 5 out of 5.“

“The best experience coming to chef Suzuki‘s restaurant for my dad‘s birthday! All of the food and the flavors were delicious, it was awesome to try so many different courses. The fish melted in your mouth! The staff were extremely friendly, interactive and accommodating and answered all of our questions!“

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

“Food was good. Service was good, but their QR code ordering system was really bad. We couldn't order individually in the app, and had to submit one order as a table. We had to seperate all our orders afterwards with the waitress, and ended up just splitting the bill down the middle.“

“Don't get me wrong, I like this place. I'm just writing this to warn people against getting the prawn ramen, because it costs $6 more than the original and you literally get 1 prawn lol. My friends laughed, but as a shrimp-enjoyer, I was sad. 🍤🥲“

“Very good sushi and Japanese food. I don't remember many eclectic or unique items, but the menu is extensive and everything is well prepared. They have just about every kind of Japanese food and a nice variety of sake, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages. The service is friendly and efficient.“

“After hearing about Wataru from a friend, I was very eager to try it, and then my wife surprised me with a dinner here with my son for Father's Day.

From start to finish, the food, service, and hospitality were all incredible. Every course was delicious, and even as we started to get full we found ourselves pushing through to try the next amazing item.

We will absolutely be back to this gem of a restaurant!“

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

“I can't believe how long it has taken me to write this review. My family and I dine at this establishment weekly, sometimes twice in one week. We moved to the south end from N Seattle six months ago and initially had trouble finding a good sushi restaurant. We had tried several other restaurants in Southcenter/Tukwila area as well as others in Burien but I was very disappointed until we found Tomo Sushi. What has me coming back weekly, is the fresh fish, friendly and kind service and a nice atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Great foods and awesome service!“

“Best sushi. Joe is an exceptional sushi chef. His support staff are incredible. Vintage stereo equipment and vinyl records on the walls. Don’t miss out.“

“One of my favorite Japanese restaurants (not to mention the oldest in Seattle) and it has never disappointed me. The food is delicious and the service is friendly and warm. It’s a difficult time we are in with the pandemic of 2020, but Maneki has transitioned to take out, which it never did before, and is so organized that it blew my mind when I saw how clearly labeled each item was when I got home. I could easily tell which was part of the teishoku 定食 or “set meal.” Support this small business because it needs us now more than ever. 01 DEC 2020.“

“My new favorite sushi spot! I cannot get enough of it. I love the crispy rice with salmon or tuna. The fish tastes so fresh. I can’t believe I didn’t go sooner. The staff is great and so nice and welcoming. It’s truly a great spot for lunch or dinner.“

“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!“

“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.“

“ordering from the tablet at the table was cool and convenient. i liked the huge complimentary bottle of water. i liked the the rancho roll, but it was a bit too fishy for my wife and she preferred the fried california roll. we both liked the crunchy roll. the gyoza and takoyaki were good too“

“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.“

“BEST sushi in Seattle. Good prices, GREAT staff! I go often. Ask Hehe to fix up his famous chef's special!“

“Great sushi and flavors here. I love the variety and the fact that they don't have the exact same rolls that every other sushi place seems to have on their menu. Fun and creative names and truly different combos for their sushi rolls and I'm here for it!“

“We had dinner at Thirsty Hop in Kirkland and really enjoyed everything we ordered! We tried several different dishes, and they were all delicious.

The grilled boiled squid was especially memorable — so flavorful and perfectly cooked! I honestly wish I had taken pictures because there were so many good dishes on the table.

Everything tasted fresh and well prepared, and we had such a nice time. I’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Highly recommend!“
