Sushi KashibaToday's hours5:00pm - 10:00pmThe Zagat Review Shiro Kashiba’s hot spot in the Pike Place Market draws crowds for omakase from the master himself, exactingly prepared in the Edomae (Old Tokyo) style. Trained under Jiro Ono (of the “Jiro Dreams of Sushi” film), Kashiba transformed the former Marche space into a posh, contemporary room with one of the city’s most sought-after sushi bars, as well as views of Elliott Bay and the Pike Place Market.

The recepiese and the tips are very good. Gave the book to a friend as a gift...when we visit him I will be able to review it....not yet.. Shiro's quasi-homemade book is one that belongs on the lap and then the shelf of any devotée of Japanese food culture. Best sushi restaurant, by far, in the Seattle area. Have eaten there many times and never disappointed.

A Guide to Sushi in Seattle + My Top 3 Picks I’m a sushi purist. I love a good fusion restaurant, but when it comes to sushi: the simpler, the better.

This guide also doesn’t include other delicious Japanese staples such as ramen and gyoza; it’s strictly and simply sushi. I moved to Seattle from Los Angeles (a city that houses some of the most amazing sushi I’ve ever had…and I thought that a city known for its abundant seafood must have a thriving sushi scene. A few years later, I can’t say I’m super impressed with the sushi circuit in the Emerald City. With that said, while I’ve had my share of misses, I’ve found a few relative hits that I do return to when my sushi cravings kick in. I hate to stand in line for restaurants. But for good sushi, I’ll camp out for hours — no problem. I’m also incredibly weary of establishments that try to incorporate other Asian cuisines on the menu — that reeks of a sushi nightmare to me. Similarly, I’m also skeptical of being served great sushi in places that have whole sections devoted to crazy rolls. It’s not always a deal-breaker but it does warn my palate to keep expectations low.

Nestled in the small pocket of Japantown in the International District, and with no website and no sign on the door (or anywhere for that matter), Tsukishinbo caters to sushi purists in Seattle. It’s minimalist, unpretentious, and small. You know the food is good when there are more menus in Japanese than in English. You also know the food can be trusted when it’s cooked, prepared, and served by people who speak Japanese as a primary or secondary language. This is a family-run business so not only do you see the same smiling faces every time you go, you also get great service. The fish is fresh, the menu changes regularly, and there are certain secret specials throughout the week that only regulars know about. I had to wait for an hour the first time I went, but I’ve since learned my lesson and will always make reservations. At least a week in advance, if possible. An insider tip: on Fridays (and only Fridays), during the lunch hours, they dish up their famously good and infamously in-demand ramen.

Considering that it takes them four days to make their richly flavored broth, the spot only serves a couple dozen bowls, so you have to get it while it’s hot, or you don’t get it. An insider tip: You definitely want to make reservations, but in case, you’re there last minute, there’s still possibility to grab a seat at the bar — there’s a pretty quick turnover. After opening in December 2015, Sushi Kashiba quickly became the reigning champion of the sushi scene in Seattle. It’s the namesake restaurant of Chef Shiro Kashiba, a protégé of the world-famous sushi maestro, Jiro (of Jiro Dreams of Sushi). He formerly owned Shiro’s in Seattle, which was known as the best in the city, but ever since it was sold to new management, the quality has dwindled considerably. Located in Pike Place Market with seaside views, Sushi Kashiba has become a hot spot in the city, attracting a well-heeled crowd and catering to those who appreciate the fine distinctive flavors of nigiri and sashimi.
