Japanese food in Seattle

I'm from Vancouver BC and later San Francisco, so I'm a picky eater of Japanese food because I've been spoiled silly in other cities where it's more popular. Hence, this list is short.

This place is in the Tangletown area. I've only been there once with my roommate and another friend but I was really impressed. Great sushi. Carefully prepared, very fresh. Good size place that is new, clean, and looks nice. Prices are good and the…More »

Fresh sushi, neatly made rolls, great prices, great service. This is one of the small handful of places I'll go to eat sushi in Seattle.

Love it. It's where I go for consistent, fresh, well prepared sushi at a reasonable price. The trick is to go when it's not too busy. Friday and Saturday nights are not great because other people love Hana as much as I do and there will be a long…More »

Best pre-prohibition style cocktails ever, none of that sugary insta-mix crap that gives you a hangover. They really know their drinks and they make them flawlessly. I'm extremely picky about sushi and was impressed by their quality and freshness.…More »

Only been here a couple times for happy hour but was it ever happy! Drinks and rolls were super cheap and they were pretty good! The only thing about that happy hour is that it's sort of not a secret. So it can get crowded fast. I like the feel of…More »

My bf took me here for omakase on my birthday. It was awesome. Each dish was excellent. Beautifully plated, fresh, and delicious.

Having said that I don't know if I'd come back because 1. it is pretty spendy and I have no money, and I can get sushi…More »

Recently updated lists from Vanessa A.

Places I love to hate (17) Never go here.	Best of Capitol Hill (30) My favorite little spots in Capitol Hill, my favorite neighborhood. If you're from Vancouver, I'd say it's a mix of Davie and Commercial Drive. If you're from the SF Bay Area, I'd say it's a mix of Castro and the Mission (minus Latino influence because Seattle is pretty darn white).
Must sees and dos if you're visiting Seattle (11) I think I've answered the question, "what should I see/do in Seattle on my next trip" a couple dozen times, ditto for Vancouver and San Francisco where I've also lived. So here's my list of must sees, must dos, and must eats for Seattle. So far I've covered some of the eats. I will get to the must do and must sees soon.	"I feel good. I knew that I would, now" (9) Places to go to feel good.
Chinese restaurants in Vancouver, BC (7) Vancouver BC is the mecca of good Chinese food. My parents think it's because so many of the top chefs from Hong Kong immigrated to Vancouver when HK was handed back over to China. Whatever the reason, there's no better place for Chinese food. People (e.g. Eugene at the last Elite event at Two Beers) often ask me where to go since there are tonnes of Chinese food (and other ethnic) restaurants all over Vancouver (and Richmond) so I'm going to start a list just for you folks. I grew up in Vancouver, most of my friends are from there, and my family is still there, so I should be able to come up with a good list.
