I went to himitsu a couple weeks ago for the 1st time. As we walked in the lady behind the counter greeted us with a big warm smile and a welcome. I tried one of the bento trays they offered. Of course what I wanted was not on the menu. So I asked if she could change a couple of things. And of course they did with no questions asked. She offered us a bowl of the complementary soup 🍲. I said sure. It was hot and spicy soup. It was sooooo delicious. As we are waiting for the food the lady was greeting every one with a big smile and a welcome. She was laughing and joking with what seemed like her regular customers. We got our food and it was delicious. Since I have been back 2 more times. The food great and the lady's welcoming smile.

I will continue to go here. Keep up the good work and the great food.

This was an excellent experience and a calm, clean atmosphere. We came here for lunch and the food was delicious. I had the Terriyaki barbecue chicken with kalbi! The food very tasty and tender, the marinade was flavorful. The host was very friendly and we also got complimentary Gyoza! I rate this restaurant 5 out of 5 stars! I will definitely be back to try the house fried rice.

If you like to stand and wait while a lady talks on a phone ignoring you and then proceeds to give you attitude when you grab your to go order that is clearly yours at 1:30 pm on a Tuesday with no other customers in sight, then this is your place.

My favorite Seattle teriyaki tofu. I used to get takeout a lot when I worked nearby and the tofu was always perfectly crispy outside and tender inside, only in the package for a short time. The sauce is the right amount of both sweet and salty. I order extra sauce sometimes, as I did in the most recent picture, in case I want it for leftovers or for another meal in the next couple days. I got delivery across town this time. You have to set expectations appropriately for delivery teriyaki tofu as it usually loses crispiness on the journey. I went back through old pictures and found one from 2021, and the surface texture does look more different than just a long car ride, honestly, but I was still really happy with my meal, it was delicious. So it’s possible they have a different preparation now than in the old picture. I would like to eat at the restaurant and see what peak crispiness is like, but I have either had a short lunch break or have not been nearby. When I have picked up, the place was always clean and the staff were friendly and efficient. They give a huge portion of tofu! I sometimes make more rice for the leftover tofu. They do not use egg on the tofu and didn’t before either (I checked again because I hadn’t been in a while). I don’t remember it being marked as vegan on the menu but I want to use that word in the review in case anyone is searching. You want this.

I had an unpleasant experience at this restaurant. There was a woman working there who was very rude and unprofessional. She only pointed at things with her finger and didn’t even try to communicate with customers. It felt very disrespectful and dehumanizing. In such an atmosphere, it’s hard to even want to eat, let alone return. I won’t be having anything to do with this restaurant again

Restroom is always out of order here for some reason. Feel very sorry for the employees that they have to hold all day. Hope the owner fixes it soon and takes care of their employees.

Best teriyaki in town which means it's up there for best in the country. Salad is top notch, chicken is fresh, gyoza is crisp and tasty. Just the absolute best and delicious

Perfect spicy chicken teriyaki. Picked up, but inside is nice, friendly staff. Don't be afraid of the yellow sauce for the salad. Heft amount for $15 after tax!

Amazing woman who took my order, very friendly and they offer free soup while you wait for your order. The soup was delicious! The portions where a bit small and was a bit on the blanned side. I'm hoping the next time the food will be as great as my experience.

One of my fav teriyaki spots in Seattle! Food is good & Staff is absolutely amazing and kind. Above and beyond service. I get the spicy teriyaki chicken and it’s great! Most teriyaki plates are priced about the same as the rest of Seattle area (around $15 pretax) but better quality than a lot of places.
