Reviews
Owen was also great and made sure we were taken care of the entire time, bringing our drinks promptly and keeping our glasses full.
My fiancé and I were celebrating our engagement, and they surprised us with a complimentary celebratory drink, which was incredibly kind and thoughtful.
There is no doubt this place has the love and attention of the staff that love sushi. No other place comes close to it even from around the world. Please make sure to come and visit as Shiro is only getting older.
Food is OK.
Not a big fan of how omakasa is made and served for dining tables.
We are sitting at dining table and omakase is served table by table. For each table, waiter will repeat same dish introduction. You will hear repetitive same dish introduction from left and right tables.
Some sushi are pre-made, Chef made them and put them in a box, then taken them out when it’s time to serve. I think sitting in front of the counter will have much better experience.
At $160 per person (before drinks and the mandatory 20% service fee), I was expecting a refined, seasonal tasting. What we got instead felt like someone’s first day at sushi school.
The rice was hard and dry — not the warm, vinegared kind that melts with the fish. The “omakase” came out five or six pieces at once (because apparently pacing and temperature don’t matter anymore). And the fish? Nothing special — mostly tuna, salmon, and a few very average cuts you could find at any mid-tier sushi bar.
Several pieces were overseasoned, particularly one with large fish roe that was overly salty and poorly balanced with rice. The rice under it was so tiny it was basically decoration.
Even the drink service missed the mark: I asked for light ice, got a cracked glass, pointed it out, and the replacement came back full of ice again.
The environment is loud and gives off more happy hour energy than chef’s table intimacy.
This felt like a restaurant caught between two identities — trying to be an elevated omakase, yet functioning like a bar with bar-quality food. Unfortunately, it delivers neither the refinement of the former nor the value of the latter. And I feel truly bad for someone who think this place is worth a five star
The portions are huge — the first omakase ever that made me feel completely stuffed. Even without ordering extra, I was already full. 20 pieces of sushi plus a hand roll, tofu, and soup.
Overall, the food was very good and matched my expectations for the price ($190 + tax + 20% service charge). Everything in the photos was great except the salmon, the texture felt a bit watery and loose, with little flavor.
The course order was interesting — it started with a toro hand roll and ended without any dessert after the tamago.
Service pace-wise, everyone at the sushi bar starts at the same time. There were five chefs, each serving about four to five guests, so you don’t have to wait ages between pieces. The overall rhythm makes it a good spot for solo dining — I was there about 80 minutes from start to finish. The chef mainly introduced each ingredient and asked a few polite questions but didn’t chat much. I could text friends in between and the next sushi would arrive — not awkward at all to dine solo at the counter. On the flip side, if you’re coming here for a date or to chat, it might feel a bit fast-paced.
The location is super convenient, right next to Pike Place Market. The restaurant has a few ocean-view tables where you can see the market’s big red sign and a bit of Puget Sound behind it (the sushi counter faces away from the view). I didn’t take photos inside as there were other diners, but you can guess the view from photo showing the exterior.
As for the total, with a $5 hot tea, it came to $258 all in.
Highly recommended that for solo diners.
