    Chicken Sandwich & Teriyaki combo plate
    Payton H.

    Airport food tends to be overpriced and underwhelming, however, Hachi-ko proved to be only one of those, as it had great quality food. The line compared to many other places was short and the person who took our order was friendly. I got the spicy miso chicken sandwich that came with a side of chips. The chicken itself was a good size and it was juicy and crispy. The bun was amazingly soft and buttery. I also appreciated the spicy miso sauce as it added a lot of flavor and prevented the sandwich from being dry. My boyfriend got the teriyaki chicken & beef combo plate, which came with a large portion. Both the chicken and beef were doused in their yummy, sweet teriyaki sauce. The gyozas weren't anything special, but tasted decent dipped in the sauce.

    Overpriced and not good. Overall not good food, pricy, service lacks. For two meals and three drinks was $70. The katsu chicken was rough and the sauce that accompanied it was yuck. Teriyaki chicken was mid. The salad with bad, sauce was bad and the lettuce was past its prime. I should have just gotten a banana from here instead.

    Had a $15 meal voucher from the airline, so grabbed an early lunch near my gate (C9). The service was quick, the staff were friendly and the food was good. Portions are large and could easily be shared. There are a few barstools or they will pack your food in a bag for easy transport to the gate. Definitely worth a visit if you are looking for a warm meal at the airport.

    Spicy Teriyaki Chicken for $22.95 The chicken was tasty and it actually had heat. The rice was fresh and fluffy. The salad was inedible as it must had been frozen at some point and was soggy. Restaurant is located outside of Terminal C and service was quick.

    Snack at 4:15am at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport... When I saw the word, Hachi-ko, I had to take a look. If you know the story of the loyal Japanese dog... you know why. (I sure was tempted to get a free sticker with purchase of 2 boba drinks, but I resisted!) Thinking that I won't be having Asian cuisine for a week, I decided to get Summer Rolls - not the spam musubi nor the poke bowl. Service was efficient, but on the abrupt side. One of the gals was speaking roughly to the customer in front of me. Hmmm... After I paid, I sat nearby at a table for customers. It helped to sit at a designated spot because of the dipping sauce. Let's prevent spills! I appreciate the fresh cucumber, lettuce, and carrots. It's too bad that the wrapper was tearing on the sides, but dry and hard on the ends. The shrimps and dipping sauce were good! I'm glad that I got something on the solid side to eat before the flight because we'll probably only get cookies and pretzels again... LOL!

    Price is up but quality is down. Their grilled chicken fried rice used to be my go to when traveling through SeaTac. It's now a whopping $21 if you add the chicken for $3. There is no longer any veggies other than green onions, frozen peas and carrots. They serve less in albeit a much more earth friendly container. But the worst is that the rice has no flavor. The texture is soggy and gone is the beautiful char on the rice and the chicken. I might try the yakisoba next time but maybe not. Definitely no longer something I look forward to since the recipe changed. I ate the chicken and dumped the rest and if you know my stance on wasting anything you'd know the significance.

    Curry
    Qingyun L.

    Very expensive. Not worth to try. $18 curry, only rice. The is no katsu at all. Never buy it. The taste is normal. But $18 you can others much better than this rice.

    Really good Japanese station at one of the ends by the C gates. The fried rice is good sized and you can add protein for a small additional fee.

    Katsu with Japanese curry and Teriyaki Chicken
    Bo V.

    We ate at Hachi-ko at the Seattle airport before our flight to IAD. We ordered the chicken teriyaki and the katsu with Japanese curry. The service was good and impressively fast. The food was fresh and tasty, and we enjoyed both dishes. The portions were generous, enough to fill the two of us. The picture was taken when we were already halfway through our meal. The price is high because it's in the airport. We highly recommend this place.

    Over cooked mushy rice

    Ate chicken tempura asked if white meat said it all is , it wasn't . rice was overcooked and salad how they even serve this .

    Happy HACHIKO
    Don G.

    Fast, hot, food with that classic sweet teriyaki sauce that pleases the palate. Friendly greeting with a 10% discount for airline employees. There's nothing quite like seeing a smiling husky to put you in that happy place. Served up with a smile! Mahalo!

    Beef/grilled chicken combo
    Wina G.

    Came off the plane starving at C concourse and this was one one the first I saw. Never let your stomach make decisions for you. There's a small area for bar seating and I wanted to sit down. They serve Hawaiian style plate lunch as well as udon and musubi. I got the teri beef and chicken combo and requested the sauce on the side. Good thing because the food was SALTY! I have a bit of headache and drinking water like a horse. Not good because I have another flight to catch and I tend to swell. It's a big at first glance. There was no way I could finish it. There was rice underneath the large portion of beef and chicken. Also came with green salad. It was okay. I liked the chicken better. And the rice was mushy. Coming from Hawaii, I have standards for plate lunch and this didn't make it. I paid $20 with tax and tip.

    Teriyaki salmon
    David L.

    The food was good. The salmon and rice was almost worth $23. But the salad was mid unless you like sour and spicy sauce. Mostly lettuce and it was a bit dry. The salmon was cooked just right. The teriyaki sauce was perfect with a hint of ginger. Food came out in 10 minutes. Rice was good, better than instant Korean rice. I still think it's pricey but it's good enough for two kids and neither complained so it's good enough for me. It's the airport food. You get what you get. Ambiance/vibe was cool. I liked the logo. Solid A-

    Chicken yakitori. It has ginger, broccoli, cabbage, and green onion

    4.5 stars (5 for the price point).

It seems great for special occasions (we saw them coming by with a polaroid for those celebrating such as birthdays or anniversaries. I enjoyed how relaxed the vibes are at this place. I wish they had more cold tea options for the summer and more non-alcoholic drinks in general, but still had a great experience. The fish selection is fresh and the pieces are very manageable. It feels like there is a local touch with the salmon course/pieces. My husband is left handed and I was very impressed our waiter noticed and adjusted accordingly. I especially loved their soy sauce (which they said was house made). Fun little date night out and we really did enjoy it. Highly recommend making a reservation as that is what we did.

Reservations during off peak dinner hours aren't too difficult to get on a weeknight and street parking was fairly easy to find. The omakase / tasting menu is 19 bites, which is a decent amount of food, but overall the fish quality was really disappointing. There were only about 4-5 pieces of nigiri that tasted fresh and clean; the white fish that you start with in particular were just not a fun texture or flavor. The shellfish course and sweet shrimp were solid though. Unfortunately, besides the fish, the rice was a total flop too. It just felt dried out as if they had been pre portioned well ahead of time and under seasoned. Part of the joy of a course menu, if you want slightly warm / room temperature rice against the cool fish, but you get zero of that contrast here.

I got a hard alcohol I wasn't used to getting. It was fun and it was quite good! It was Shochu which is a distilled beverage and involves sweet potato. If memory serves I got the one with sweet potato and pear. Very different but very good. It had a nice dryness to it. To wrap it all up we got some deep fried mochi ice cream. It held up nicely to being a great finish to a very high quality meal. We are definitely coming back!

Since my birthday fell on a Wednesday, we were lucky enough to have Chef Shiro Kashiba himself behind the counter preparing and serving our meal. The entire experience was incredible. The service was organized, attentive, and made the evening feel truly special. Chef Shiro Kashiba is knowledgeable, entertaining, and incredibly passionate about his craft. With every course, from salmon and tuna to white fish, mackerel, shellfish, and eel, he explained how each piece should be eaten, where the fish was sourced, and even shared personal stories from his career. It felt like he was telling a story through every piece of sushi he prepared, making the experience both captivating and unforgettable. Chef Shiro Kashiba is truly inspiring. It was also wonderful to see that everyone seated at our counter had traveled from out of state just to experience his omakase, which speaks volumes about his reputation. This was, without a doubt, the best sushi omakase experience I've ever had. The fish was exceptionally fresh, and every bite was thoughtfully prepared. The flavors were unlike any sushi I've had before and gave me a whole new appreciation for how extraordinary sushi can be when it's crafted by a chef with such deep knowledge and experience. I would absolutely love to come back again. I left feeling completely satisfied and fulfilled, yet hungry for more of this amazing sushi experience. Thank you, Chef Shiro Kashiba, for making my birthday so memorable!

Our food tour was very intimate, just the two of us plus the guide. One of the restaurants we visited was called Shiro. We arrived mid-afternoon, while the restaurant was closed to the public. We were each served two pieces of Nigiri and told the story about Shiro. The two pieces that we were served were phenomenal and the story fascinating. We found out when Chef Shiro would be working next and cancelled another dinner reservation so we could try more of his food. When we arrived before opening time, there was already a woman waiting at the door. After us, a Seattle software engineer and three of his Canadian co-workers arrived. We had all arrived early because sitting at the bar in front of Shiro was on a first come, first served basis, reservations were not taken for that privilege. The year after we dined, we read that Shiro had retired. We were so disappointed that we would not get to eat his food again. Then we learned that Shiro opened a new restaurant and we planned on making a trip up to Seattle. Twelve years later, we finally made it. Reservations were made through opentable.com two months in advance. We wanted the Omakase, sitting at the bar, in front of the Master. Well, when we arrived, we found that Shiro only works on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. (sigh) Still, we had a great meal prepared by an amazing chef who hailed from Laos, whose name escapes me now. We had a pretty good conversation despite the background noise from the rest of the restaurant. The presentation was beautiful as you can see from my pictures. We asked for and received a menu list that detailed what we were being served. If you take the time to look at the photo captions, you can follow along with the menu list to see what each fish looked like. And then, on our way out, there was Shiro! We greeted him, thanked him and his Sushi Chef for a great meal. We asked for a photo and he had a staff member take the picture for us. Yes, Shiro is a slight man but not quite as small as the picture makes him look. The staffer changed my camera setting from 1x to .5x and because he was standing one step behind us, we look huge! At any rate, it was a meal that will remain with us to the end of our days. Domo Arigato Gozaimasu Shiro Kashiba & Staff!

I've been fortunate to enjoy several omakase meals over the years, and while many simply let the chef choose your sushi, Sugo takes the concept to another level. Every course is thoughtfully orchestrated, with each piece expertly prepared and presented right in front of you. Watching the chefs work is part of what makes the evening so memorable. The seafood was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and every course reflected genuine craftsmanship and attention to detail. It was clear that the chefs take great pride in what they create. The service was equally impressive. Everyone was attentive, knowledgeable, and happy to explain the dishes and answer questions without ever making the experience feel rushed. The cocktails were excellent and complemented the meal perfectly. One of the biggest surprises was Happy Hour. If you're looking for exceptional hand rolls and high-quality Japanese cuisine at a very reasonable price, Sugo offers one of the best values I've found in Seattle. Whether you're new to omakase or already a fan, Sugo is a restaurant I'd enthusiastically recommend. Outstanding food, exceptional service, a beautiful atmosphere, and a dining experience that I'll definitely be returning to.

    FOB Sushi Bar has been living rent-free in my head ever since I first visited about two years ago…read more I finally made it back to Seattle this month and knew I had to stop by again! FOB is a build-your-own sushi spot so instead of ordering from a menu, you grab a takeout box (either a tray or large box), pick up a pair of tongs, walk down the sushi line, choose whatever catches your eye, then weigh and pay. It's currently around $15 per pound, and filling up one of the larger boxes usually costs me a little over $30, depending on what I pick. One thing I noticed this visit is that the price has definitely gone up since my first trip. I was also tempted by the giant inari nigiri so selected a few to bring home, but found out that it turned out to be mostly rice with just a little fish on top so I'm thinking next time, I'll probably stick more with the sushi rolls or smaller nigiri since they felt like the better value. The selection is HUGE though: sushi rolls, nigiri, gunkan, etc. The only negative for me is how fast-paced the experience feels. Every time I've visited (I guess just twice so far), the line has been packed and practically out the door, so there's not much time to stand there by the actual sushi bar and browse your options, especially since the shop is small and tight with the cluster of customers (you're literally standing inches away from each other). You're basically moving along with everyone else and making quick decisions as you go. I understand it keeps the line moving, but I personally prefer having a little more time to look. However, I did notice that the staff is constantly replenishing the options and keeping everything clean, so nothing seems to sit out for long. The fish tastes fresh, clean, and never fishy, and the texture is just right. Seating inside is pretty limited, so it's mostly a takeout spot. I have taken my box back to my hotel to enjoy in solitude (when I travelled to Seattle) or take it home to share with my kid (50+ mile drive since I recently moved to WA, but still tastes yummy after the ride). I also noticed plenty of people enjoying their sushi on the steps outside. Regarding price, my box usually ends up costing about the same as ordering about two specialty sushi rolls elsewhere, but being able to mix and match a variety of different pieces makes it a fun experience, especially since their rolls are creative, delicious, and worth trying. If you're a sushi lover (or even just looking to try a variety of sushi in one meal), I definitely recommend checking out FOB Sushi Bar!

What I did find pleasant was that although it was a lower table, there was an opening beneath the table that allowed your legs to hang rather than having to sit Indian style. Tyson was an amazing server. Was attentive, accommodated our allergies and was thoughtful with us having a young child. He was so pleasant and polite!

Established in 1904 in the heart of Japantown, the restaurant relocated to the ground floor of the NP Hotel after its original structure was ransacked during World War II, when Seattle's Japanese community was relocated to internment camps outside the city. The hotel where Maneki now resides served as repository for family heirlooms that were left behind during that embarrassing and tragic period of American history. The joy of dining at Maneki goes well beyond the restaurant's incomparable history.
