    Very good salmon nigiri and also had tuna and spicy salmon rolls. Not cheap, but price is fair considering quality. A bit noisy and had to keep asking for water refills. Otherwise very good.

    Came for dinner before a concert at Tractor Tavern down the street and all of the staff were SO friendly and kind. The third person in our group was 30 minutes late, but they took it in stride, provided us excellent service, and made sure we felt good about timing, knowing we had a commitment later. They offer great quality sushi and fun cocktails at what I feel are very fair prices. We will be back!

    We had a very pleasant celebration dinner sitting at the sushi bar. Excellent king salmon and hamachi, 15% Tuesday discount on a bottle of sake, attentive and pleasant service, and tempura comped for our birthday.

    I am from Chicago and read this was a top sushi place in Seattle. The sushi in Chicago was a million times better than what I got here. 2 nigiri for 26$ is what I can get for 8 nigiri in Chicago. Crazy and absolutely no flavor
    Moshi Moshi SushiResponded on April 16, 2025
    I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your recent visit with us. Our menu costs directly reflect the cost of offering fresh, finely prepared sushi in Seattle, including the cost of operating a small business in the city. Our prices are comparable to other established sushi restaurants in Seattle, and we get fresh fish delivered almost daily. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit to Seattle.

    We have been going here for many years and have experienced changes with different ownership. It has been about a year since our last visit and it is still hopping but the servers are overloaded. Our server was very nice but could not be very attentive as she was handling multiple parties. We still tipped her well as she was definitely trying. The sushi was good but the cocktails are smaller in size and not as good while prices have definitely increased. The value has decreased when comparing to prior experience.

    The fish was very fresh. The flavors are great especially the miso cod. Wish we had ordered more. However, the waygu nigri was way too chewy and difficult to swallow. Considering how expensive the meal was, I was expecting better quality all around.
