Ah-so has probably the best combination of quality and price in Seattle. The fish is always the "freshest I have ever had" and the flavors of all the other non-sushi food are definitely well thought out and awesome. The owner has a great ability for remembering your name (even on my second time there!) and the whole place just makes you feel welcome. I highly recommend this restaraunt. Be sure to give them enough time to make your meal though - prep is a bit slow (but worth it)
Pros: FRESH fish, friendly service, no lines
Cons: long prep time, not amazing interior

I was on a road trip driving from Bay Area to Seattle. I picked up a this July month Sunset magazine as I arrived and saw an article which Arita was first listed for best place for Japanese cuisine. Just like the article said " a hole in the wall wander on Phinney Ridge/Greenwood" It was one and the only...with no imitation ~ and incredibly good. Not to mention their attentive servers with great smiles ;)
Try their sushi/sashimi varieties.
Pros: homey atmosphere, generous service, cheap food
Cons: fairly crowded

When I can't think of what I want to eat, usually this is where I end up. Excellent vegan sushi options, a fantastic house salad (I must figure that dressing out!). I typically will call them up on a week day around noon, feeling hungry and a little lazy, order my same old same old (asparagus roll and avocado roll, house salad), and drive up there five or ten minutes later and it's ready. I can hardly wait to get home and eat it. They also do a very nice vegetable Tempura, the house soup is excellent, a little smoky and salty, and all of it is pretty reasonably priced. Even on a Friday night at rush hour and the line well out the door, I didn't wait more than ten minutes to be seated. The waitstaff are masters of efficiency..when it just about enters your mind that you've been waiting a second past too long for your food, there it is, beautifully presented and mouth watering. I have eaten there maybe fifty times over five years, and never once, NEVER found hair in my food. I feel sorry for those folks who did. Fluke.
Pros: Inexpensive, Fast! Fresh, Delicious, Diverse.

The people are real nice and service if perfect. I like the food my wife was not really sold but next time we go we will try something else.
We hope they do well and keep being a good asset to the neighborhood.
Pros: Good quality food

If you're looking to go out to for a nice meal, that is also entertaining, Benihana is a great choice. The chefs cook the food right at the table and perform quite a show for the customers. At first it doesn't seem like you are getting a lot of food, but this is deceiving, as I can't ever finish an entire meal at this restaurant. The food tastes amazing! The best part is the fried rice, so make sure you order that instead of the steamed rice- you won't be disappointed. This place is a little pricey, but it is worth it. The only drawback for some people would be the fact that small parties share tables with other people that they might not know. I am a pretty social person, so this doesn't bother me, but if you are someone who doesn't like to talk to people who you aren't familiar with, then this place might not be for you (unless you bring enough friends to fill up an entire table). I highly recommend this restaurant- and especially the fried rice!!

This is a great place for a date night, or to take the family to. Watching the chefs do their knife show is amazing and the food is so good, too! Children really enjoy this as well as adults.

I'm fairly new to sushi, but I am very picky and I know what tastes good. Bento Sushi (in the Crown Hill Neighborhood, Ballard) has a great selection of sushi that isn't made of just fish. The Philly Roll (Cream Cheese filled) and Spicy Crispy Chicken Roll, and Chicken or Beef Teriyaki roll are just some examples of the choices available to you. The 16 piece, 6.95 special is also a good bargain. This place is almost always busy, so you may have to wait for a seat, but I think that it is very much worth it.
Pros: Great selection for Sushi beginners

Best is a nice, quiet place tucked down into Richmond Beach. I like to go down there to avoid the crowds at the other places along Aurora, and I really like their Spicy Chicken combos.
