Reviews
I really appreciate that the staff explained each piece and which pieces to have with soy sauce. I was also surprised by how filling the 19 piece meal was! I will place for a date night or even to go with some foodie friends.
If you’re staying by Pike Place Market, it’s an easy walk.
They run it like a Michelin star restaurant, the attention to detail is next level. All of the staff are very kind and friendly, and they will ensure you have a great experience and are taken care of. I cannot recommend it highly enough!
Even though I haven’t explored many sushi or omakase restaurants in Seattle yet, Shiro’s Sushi has already set the bar extremely high and has quickly become my favorite. From the moment I sat down, I could tell this place was special. The atmosphere felt calm, authentic, and focused on the food, which is exactly what I look for in a great sushi experience.
I booked a table and ordered the omakase, which was $85 for 19 pieces. For the quality, care, and overall experience, this honestly felt like one of the best values I’ve ever had for omakase — not just in Seattle, but anywhere. Each piece of sushi was carefully crafted and left a lasting impression. Nothing felt repetitive or ordinary; every bite had its own character and balance.
The fish was exceptionally fresh, and I appreciated that they included several types of fish I had never tried before. It made the experience feel both educational and exciting, especially as someone who truly loves sushi. You can tell the chefs have deep knowledge and respect for the ingredients, and that level of craftsmanship really shows in every piece that comes across the counter.
Another highlight of the experience was the people. The chef was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the meal feel warm and personal rather than formal or intimidating. The service throughout the evening was outstanding — attentive, professional, and genuinely thoughtful. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect without ever being intrusive.
I was honestly surprised to learn that Shiro’s Sushi has been open for more than 30 years. It truly feels like one of Seattle’s best-kept secrets. With food and service at this level, it deserves far more recognition than it gets.
Shiro’s Sushi is the kind of place that reminds you why great sushi is an art form. It’s not just a meal — it’s an experience. I’ll absolutely be returning and would highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates high-quality sushi or is looking for an unforgettable omakase experience in Seattle.
The service was great, the sushi was delicious. Everything was fresh and it was a fun and well timed experience.
I’d do the happy hour next time instead or sit at the bar.
These nigiri’s made me reconsider all the other nigiri’s I had in my life and made me realize i’ve only eaten garbage nigiri my entire life. Maybe I’m too new to omakase but that was life altering enlightenment to my taste buds.
The service was amazing too! Server noticed the left handed people at the table and adjusted their presentation to accommodate us. They pay a lot of attention to details and have unmatched service.
I’ve been multiple times and the experience has been very consistent. The fish is always fresh, and the overall quality is reliable from visit to visit. A solid choice if you’re looking for high-quality omakase in Seattle without surprises.
I was able to order my chefs course without wasabi 🙂
The tempura was super light and perfect crisp. The tempura shrimp flavor was superb! I could eat those all day.
1st Course: flounder, snapper, bass and bream. It was ok. It was my favorite flight I’ve had in the city. The flounder has a really clean fresh taste tho.
2nd Course: Amberjack, salmonx3, mackerel. Fun! The salmon and mackerel were better than the amberjack. The journey of the different location and types of salmon was really great and showcased the sockeye salmon. The Atlantic salmon has a clean taste.
3rd Course: Bluefin Tuna 4 ways. Yum! Really appreciated the depth of flavors with the chef special soy sauce brushed on. Good contrast between the lean and fresh, seared and fresh and melt in your mouth Toro.
4th Course: sweet shrimp, scallop, snow crab with uni. Pretty Fresh! Clean flavors, soft textures, uni melted with good flavor. Scallop was akin to clean fresh butter texture.
5th Course: chopped fatty tuna, fresh water eel, egg. Nice! I’m happy I got to eat fatty tuna twice. The tamago was a perfect little square of great flavor.
Dessert: Hojicha Tiramisu. Yum!! Super light, super silky. Really lovely. I highly recommend this.
I also love they put a message and candle on the dessert plate for my partner 🙂
Super sweet and kind and attentive staff. A really enjoyable experience.
