    The miso soup is excellent. The main entrees were very mediocre, though. (I tried the Sake Yaki and the Seafood Yakisoba)

    The sake kama is excellent! You get the whole head, really nicely cooked and is a great price.

    The TK's big roll is a must have for shrimp, tuna, salmon, hamachi and more in one giant sushi roll.

    Perfect for a work lunch. Bento boxes are huge portions and quick service.

    Ramen was tasty, but beware, it's not fresh noodles, but I think packaged..If you're looking for a traditional ramen, this is not it. They also do not do ramen ToGo

    It has been over 4 years since I have been, and it will probably be my last. Workers were super nice but let's just say I heard the microwave too many times and food was sub par.

    An unassuming little joint. The kind of place you overlook unless you are looking for it. Fresh slices of albacore and yellowfin for $1. Generous size; More fish than rice. Happy hour 4:30-6 pm Read more

    Best Sushi Happy Hour on Queen Anne. Their fish is good quality too for $1 during Happy Hour! 4:30 to 6:00. Check it out!

    I think they're either watering down the Soy Sauce or using Low Sodium. but if you ask, they still have the good stuff!

    Make sure you have the Obasan Roll. It is named after the restaurant. That should be sign enough that it's tasty.

    Fish was not fresh. You'll be better off with their bento boxes or other cooked options.

    The ramen is excruciatingly bad. Avoid it.
