So last night I decided to give it a try. Based on the reviews here it looked a lot like a place I am used to from Portland. We arrived around 5:45 ish and were pleasantly surprised to see a happy hour menu. From there we ordered edemame, vegetable yakisoba and a California roll. All three are pretty much staples of my kids favorite foods. My wife ordered the sashimi platter and Aji nigiri. I tried the black cod fish dinner with tempura along with ordering yamakake, kappa maki, and Oshinko maki. First I believe my wife enjoyed the sashimi dinner. Many of the little touches we expected from our favorite place in Portland were here. It was wonderful looking and good cuts as my wife said. My children loved both the oshinko roll and Kappa roll, devouring them. My order of yamakake was also very good. Yamakake is something that not everyone cares for, but a personal favorite. My black codfish dinner was also very good. I enjoyed it immensely. The tempura with the dinner was also very nice. It was a very pleasant surprise, very wonderful meal, attentive but not intrusive service. I think we will happily try it again.

Located in Uptown (Lower Queen Anne) just west of Queen Anne Ave. N and West Roy Street. This is a mom and pop shop, where the chef personally greets you upon entering. People who work nearby meet here for lunch. They are very friendly towards families with strollers. The food is very good/fresh. My toddler just devours their tempura cone. There is always plenty of seating. Ample parking is available in the reserved spots at the side of the building or on street. ( http://www.shiki-sushi.com )
