Mike Mosher: the garlic chili oil is awesome with any pasta (and even better if you add a chicken breast). the spinach salad is always super fresh, and the iced tea is refreshing.
Megan Russell: Nothing beats a cup of the daily soup and small spinach salad.
Tracy Kohler: In fall/winter the roasted butternut squash ravioli with browned butter and sage is a wonderful study in subtle flavors.

Adria: The Japanese style spinach salad is amazing. Original vegetarian rolls and avocado nigiri with truffle sauce is out of this world. Highly recommend!!!
Marcie Tran: Go to the sushi bar and do omakase! The sushi chef makes small dishes for you and you can name your price point. Get a sake or shochu flight as well
Eater: The first certified-sustainable sushi restaurant, the NW location ups the kitchen offerings to include seafood "charcuterie," featuring bites like uni custard and tuna prosciutto. [Eater 38 Member]

Alec M: Wilted spinach salad with hot bacon dressing is really good! (Also think it's the healthiest option on the menu)
Enrique Gutiérrez Arzate: Great place for breakfast, and cocktails and snacks by night. A little pricey, and if you’re not ok with vintage decoration it’s not your place at all
Megan Guenther: This feels like an episode of Mad Men in here

Bella Porter: Amazing breakfast find. Lots of seating. Outside seating. Organic. Teas. Coffee. Jams & homemade sauces. Try the biscuits
X: The coffee here is among the best I've had. The mocha is a real, deep chocolatey goodness & even the house blend is awesome! Plus, free Wi-Fi courtesy personal telco. :) This is a fantastic breakfast!

Carmen Myers: Great HH ! Bean veggie burger and risottos are to die for
Stephanie C: If God were a chef, He would make this dish precisely the way the chef here prepares it. I said, "WOW! Mmm!" with every single mind-blowing bite. The Country Fried Chicken was RIDICULOUS. Sensational.
Stephanie C: Sure, you could come here for the drinks, but stay for the food! This unassuming building crafts delicious masterpieces fit for a king. Add this place to your MUST GO TO list.

M R: Loved this place. We had sushi, chirashi bowl and black cod abd everything was delicious! Spicy ice cream and whiskey pudding are also worth it! Recommended!
Yas Ab: I only had rolls here but they were all too wide to eat with chopsticks except Green Machine which happened to be the best roll there. The salmon cream cheese was delightful also.
Jared: Get a Green Machine and add albacore!
