I personally think they have the best sushi in Seattle. Their creamy salmon (both cut roll and hand roll) is so delicious. Pretty much melts in your mouth. They have this thing called corn tempura with garlic butter. I’ve never had this anywhere else, and it is so amazing. I could drink the garlic butter. I wish I knew how to make it. Defintely get this appetizer. For where it is, prices are fair. They have multiple options for salad dressing if you want a house salad to start. Sake and cocktail options too. Love this place!

Had an amazing meal with great recommendations from staff. JP was amazing service. My 8 year old said it was his favorite food ever. Service was excellent.

Divey sushi place with good selection of fish. Very small wine menu (maybe 5 selections)
Yellowtail collar is good, simple cooked dish.
I enjoyed yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño. Rolls were large; good value. Probably a good lunch spot but we were there for dinner. We experienced great service - would recommend for casual sushi dinner

I am ashamed to say I’ve visited 4 times in the past 7 days, and it just keeps getting better. My go-to is the shrimp tempura roll while my partner loves the 4 1/2 roll. We share the salted edamame, creamy popcorn shrimp, and tempura corn. Love the sushi, and the incredibly kind staff and chefs.

I came here on a date, and the food was alright. I would’ve given this place a higher rating, but the waiter is super rude to me. She asked my date what he wanted to order and didn’t care to ask me what I wanted and was ready to walk away. When I asked her what drinks they had, she just pointed at the menu. I was asking for recommendations, but she didn’t give a crap and seemed like she didn’t want to even be there. That was the worst part of dining here. I’ve had far better sushi at other places, and the service here was bottom tier

Definitely a good 4-star sushi! Their special lunch options were pretty good! The nigiri’s are good and all the fishes we tried were fresh. We liked what we had, but I have had better nigiri’s than this. If I could I would give them 4.5! I would recommend this place, specially for lunch!

Got food poisoning after eating here. The eel definitely wasn’t fresh — I felt sick shortly after. It completely ruined my night. Very disappointed and won’t be returning.

We love this little Japanese spot in South Lake Union! The food is consistently delicious — a must-try is the miso cod. If you get a chance, chat with the manager, JP; he and the team are always wonderful. Cassie and Ning make every visit so welcoming, and even our little one approves! 🍣✨

Best sushi I've had in a long time. I live in Vancouver and we are known for good sushi. This is high quality at a reasonable price! I will be back !!

We were visiting from out of town and were hoping for a good sushi spot, but unfortunately, this place didn’t meet our expectations. The quality of the sushi was subpar, particularly the rice, which had a bitter taste. The spicy mayo didn’t resemble what we’re used to, and even the soy sauce had an off flavor. I ended up just picking at my food because I couldn’t bring myself to finish it. If you're used to high quality sushi, this might NOT be the place for you.

Delicious food served promptly in a calm serene atmosphere. Warm, friendly service and I love the greeting shouted from the sushi bar to each patron entering the restaurant. I had the miso black cod as an entree. It was cooked to perfection.$23 total

This was a wonderful experience for dinner. Food was tasty and well portioned--lots of unique items for a sushi enjoyer and even lots for vegans as well! Friendly service and reasonable prices. A true gem!!

Rakumori tastes good. The scallop from the daily fish is fresh but the wasabi flavour is too strong and hides away the taste of scallop and caviar.

Service was friendly, but not ideal for celiac. No gluten-free soy sauce, and limited gluten-free roll options. The timing was off (dessert before our last roll), the creme brulee lacked the classic crunch, and the raw tuna roll had hot rice.
