The fish quality was good to ok, the rice quality wasn’t it though.
My order got messed up a couple times, I don’t dislike the place because it looks cool but my experience there wasn’t what I thought it would be and there are plenty of other sushi spots in Seattle to go to, so would I go back? Not on my own time but if someone chose that spot again for an occasion then I’d go.

Great service, beautiful ambience.
I've been here years ago when they first opened, at the time I was more into specialty rolls, and the specialty rolls are good.
Ankimo is still delicious, but when it comes to the nigiri, it definitely falls short.
Rice is really overcooked. Uni - from Santa Barbara was NOT good, I almost threw up.
And I'm an uni lover, it has that lower grade quality and flavor. Scallop tastes fresh and clean Ikura okay, too much rice ratio Amaebi was actually really good, but the head was served to me somewhat lukewarm Blue fin tuna sampler was probably my favorite, but the rice quality kind of ruined it, overcooked and not well portioned for the fish, and also a little too big for one bite. Negihama roll was good, simple, again rice is overcooked and just doesn't taste right California roll and crunchy lizard, my son enjoyed both Spicy tuna roll, did not like it, the tuna itself was too blended so it had really no fish texture, these kinds of rolls tastes better when the fish its chopped by hand.
Was not spicy at all, asked for habanero sauce and they brought me a sweet habanero sauce on a plate.
I just hate when there's that much sweetness on something spicy (tearssss) Anywho I was expecting a nice dinner with great sushi, but it's definitely a place with casual quality sushi components.
I actually skipped Kura to come here, and I would've probably had the same experience there foodwise. Service from front to dining room, to leaving was excellent.
Really great team they have working together. Beautiful ambience, nice intimate setting.
I personally do not recommend any nigiri style sushi here, due to the quality of rice.
But I can say if you order sashimi, you can get a decent meal sashimi style. Also wish they had better champagne by the glass options, a dry bubble would be nice, I decided on sake, and did not like the sohomare much, it had a bitter aftertaste, dassai 45 nigori was good, a little too sweet but I enjoy dassais. Sons passion fruit lemonade was really great! See photos
