Cool restaurant. I've only had apps but very good and a fresh spin on fusion. We were in a larger party with a dedicated server, but the service was quick.
They had a unique and interesting menu, so I really wanted to try, especially the Seattle Dog Musubi, Tikka Tonkatsu Don, and the Loco Moco Scotch Egg, which we did order all of. My bf and I ended up making it in during happy hour, so we did get to also try some happy hour items. Everything was good and tasty. Cute place, and and service was excellent.
there's some excellent stuff here in the cocktails, appetizers, and dessert. And it really makes me realize that unless I'm going to a place for a specific kind of entree, that most restaurants work best when they're like a family style chinese restaurant: you share a bunch of dishes large and small and never get burdened with a choice that may not fit your taste at that time. I think itsumono benefits greatly from this, as its dishes are all delightful in smaller portions. Waitress and bartender couldn't have been sweeter, and I would add this to the list of places like Rondo and Tamari bar that compose the best Japanese fare in Seattle.
Exceeded Expectations! My husband and I came for SRW on a weekday and were seated promptly. Service was extremely kind and friendly. For appetizer, we ordered the hamachi crudo and patatas brava okonomiyaki. The hamachi was served as thick slices and I can understand why some folks say it's fishy but I think it's bc of the sauce. I liked the mint though. I enjoyed the patatas brava a lot! They do potatoes really well. For main, we got the wagyudon, which was loaded up with so much wagyu I thought it was great value and it was delicious too, and the rib sando, which felt like an elevated McRib. We enjoyed both. For dessert, we got the sticky toffee mochi pudding and tiramisuade. Loved both desserts. The toffee was most excellent.
Came here after dinner just for their dessert and it did not disappoint. We were seated at the table and told the server that we came here only for dessert so asked them if we should sit at the bar and they were OK with wherever we would like to sit. Ordered their toffee mochi ($16) and got served quite promptly so that'd good. Vanilla ice cream on too, with warm toffee caramel and mochi. The Mochi is hard-ish crunchy on the outside, but the inside is like cakey-mochi consistency. Not soft mochi, but sake, but between the two! The treacle caramel has a nutty flavor to it which I think works well with the mochi. The edible(?) flower on top is a nice touch, but didn't do much to the overall dish other than just for the visuals. The inside of the restaurant is mainly dark-wood tone and somewhat dark-ish with some spotlights to each table. Overall, great experience! The bill came out to $22 which is decent-ish considering the shareable size for two.
The food was pretty unique and tasty. The drinks were also good. The server did the best he could but they seemed pretty short staffed for an event night. They do take reservations too which is nice. The inside is pretty packed and feels like a bar meets little family restaurant. Overall would recommend because they have lots of different dietary options despite a more compact menu and everything is well labeled.
We drove from San Francisco to Seattle and arrived just in time for a late dinner. We made reservations ahead of time and were seated immediately. It's a fun spot with ample seating and a little bar area. Our servers were attentive was friendly and knowledgeable. We started with a yellowtail sashimi dish that was served with seaweed snacks- so clever! We ordered the waygu dish which was delicious and the pork loin dish. We were impressed by the clever mash up of cuisines- the tikka masala sauce on the pork cutlet served over cabbage and rice was excellent. We'll definitely return and try some other menu offerings.
Went during HH. Got the Distiller's day off which is butterfly pea flower infused tequila, watermelon soda, ginger beer, lime. It was refreshing, and alcohol ratio was decent. For food, I tried the seattle dog musubi, cauliflower karaage, and potato takoyaki. All were pretty tasty. And of course, outside HH i had to get the sticky toffee mochi again. This seems to remain consistent and the combo of toffee, cake, and mochi with the ice cream is the best. HH or not i think the price is a bit on the high end. Service is pretty good and server was friendly.
What a fun spot. We love the vibe at the bar, the artwork, and the creative menu. Expect casual fusion fare here, and changes to the menu from time to time. Cocktails are so-so for me but it depends on what we order. Also love the recent "Michelbin" rating sign up front. lol!
Came here for my birthday dinner! For starters we got the Cauliflower Karaage, Hamachi Crudo, Seattle Dog Musubi, Eggplant Dengaku, Chicken Bake Lumpia, and the Itsumono Salad. For mains we had the sweet and sour pork ribs, the loco moco scotch egg, and the tikka masala katsu don. For six people it was just the right amount of food with a little leftovers. Out of everything we tried I highly recommend the cauliflower Karaage which had a crispy/crunchy sugared outside almost reminiscent of a lighter tanghulu with a perfectly cooked and not mushy inside as well as the hamachi crudo which I thought the pairing of nuoc cham was very inventive and delicious. I also enjoyed the sweet and sour pork ribs as well as the chicken bake lumpia although the lumpia was a little soggy and lacked the usual crunch that I expect. I also had the Shiso Salty cocktail which was amazing and after tasting everyone's drink at the table was certainly the most balanced. I would not recommend the scotch egg or the tikka masala as both lacked flavor and were tepid when they came out, unfortunately the rice was over cooked as well. I also felt the filipino red hot dog choice for the seattle dog musubi while interesting didn't pair well with the other toppings and was overly sweet with the warming spices. Overall I would recommend sticking to the starters and small plates here which you can definitely make a meal out of. The staff give great recommendations as well.
Went here for Seattle restaurant week with two of my friends. We made a reservation at 7 on a Thursday and were promptly seated when we got there. The service was always very nice and friendly and quick. We decided to get two Seattle restaurant week meals and a few extra appetizers to share between the 3 of us which was more than enough food. Overall the food was pretty good, just small portions for the price. The Seattle dog was warm and creamy and I surprisingly really liked it. I thought the hamachi was good, more tangy than I expected. I thought the rib burger was just okay, I wish there was a crunch or something to it as it was just a bit mushy. The wayugon meat was good and the rice was good. We got a few cocktails and they were good too, we got the distillers day off and Sakura lemonade and I personally preferred the lemonade.
Perfect spot for a late dinner! Establishment - the space is a bigger than I thought. You see a few booths on either sides of the walls when you first walk in so it seems small, but there's a separate room where there's a bar and plenty of other tables and booth seating. The place was dimly lit, but I'm not sure if it's because we went close to 830p/9p. The front of the restaurant gave a bit more of an intimate feel, while the back felt like it was a bar/grill type ambiance. Service - nothing significant to note, the host and server were both friendly and kind. Food - I noticed there were vegan options on the menu, which I thought was nice. Not a ton, but at least there were a few options. The yuzu cauliflower karage was surprisingly delicious. Loved the citrusy tang that blended with the batter, made the dish feel a bit lighter. I ordered the bolognese that had a blend of mushrooms and eggplant. The noodles that were used was udon, which I loved the texture of. It's actually a vegan dish but you can have it made with butter and add parm to it, which I obviously did. My friend ordered the katsu entree that I tasted; it had a twist on the traditional Japanese katsu curry as they used masala curry and it worked wonderfully. My other friend ordered the scotch egg dish, which I also tried. Personally not a big fan, but it was packed with flavor. For a Friday night, it was quiet in the restaurant, but I assume most people don't go out in this area at that time of night. Overall a good experience, and would recommend if you're up for a Japanese fusion spot or a late dinner in a pinch.
Our party of 4 went without reservations on a Saturday night and got a seat after about 40min. Nice servers. It's a bit dark in there (no windows) and smells a bit musty. We ordered: 1) cauliflower - 3/5. When it came to the table, we got a sour whiff that was not very appetizing. It smelled very vinegary like bad sweat. But it tasted better than it smelled. Would almost give it a 4, but I just don't think I'd order it again. 2) shrimp gumbo - 3/5. Couldn't really taste the shrimp. Lots of batter and the shrimp had no bite. The gumbo itself was fine. 3) corn congee - 4/5. Probably the best of the bunch. 4) eggplant - 3/5. Too mushy tho I liked the spicy kick. 5) loco moco - 4/5. New take with the egg in the middle. Would order again. 6) mochi dessert - 4/5. Good consistency of mochi, but too sweet for my taste. We had decent cocktails and the pricing is reasonable, but I wouldn't necessarily return to try anything else or recommend it.

Food is a bit pricey but tasty. Servers are super knowledgeable of their drinks and were able to give great recommendations after sitting and chatting with us. Chill almost dive bar feel. Good for groups. Love this place. Will definitely be back. read more
Sticky Toffee Mochi is the only dessert on the menu, and it's definitely a must-try item. When combined with the toffee on the outside, refreshing vanilla ice cream on top, and the chewy mochi inside, it's the perfect bite to end the meal. The server kept up the bubbly personality throughout the night, which made my party felt cared for. read more

The most beautiful eggplant I have ever seen or tasted. I would not have believed that I would be full after eating half an eggplant and a bowl of cauliflower, but the flavors here were so rich and the veggies so hardy that I left absolutely satisfied. The eggplant ahem /aubergine/ is unlike anything I've ever eaten. Somehow so soft and so umami. They top it off with this yummy furikake. The cauliflower is tossed in the most beautiful sauce. It's tangy it's sweet. The cauliflower still has a great crunch to it. Grabbed some excellent drinks as well. Really excited to try more from this place! read more
3.5 stars rounded up for good service. Itsumono is an Asian fusion restaurant with a relaxed vibe. The owner was very friendly and we had a great dining experience here! They change menus frequently so hopefully we just came on a night where the offerings weren't as flavorful. Standout dishes were the tikka tonkatsu udon (well-spiced, perfect fry on the tonkatsu), mushroom mapo tofu (very mushroom-forward and the chili crisp on top adds a nice flavor without being too oily), and the aubergine dengaku (eggplant was well cooked so it retained its texture nicely). The other dishes were just ok since they tasted either bland/under salted or too sweet. read more
Japanese fusion spot. Very interesting flavor combinations. I think the flavors of the dishes need to be balanced a little bit better. Nashville Karaage - crunchy and flavorful, needs more spice in my opinion Aubergine Dengaku - good if you like eggplant Seattle Dog Don - very interesting, strong flavors, not a big fan due to the strong cream cheese flavor Spot prawn petit pois - if you like bacon and peas you'll enjoy this. I did find the hollandaise sauce a little strange in flavor, can be improved. Tikka Tonkatsu Don - needs more flavor, a little bland Service was great! Cute restaurant and bar overall. I didn't get to the the drinks. Their menu changes apparently. read more

Basically an Asian gastropub - does what it says on the tin. Was visiting from out of town with a friend and we wanted something comforting and easygoing since it was freezing out. Got there and the front of the restaurant is a little confusing because it looks like a random dive bar with no one in it but once you get seated in the back area it starts to feel more like an actual restaurant. Basically every table around us was ordering the cauliflower karaage so we got that to start which was fine but what was actually really surprising to us was the compressed aubergine which was packed with flavor. When I was there I had the short rib dumplings that were made in house + noodle soup (not sure if this is on the menu anymore). I'd want to try the other lechon-don next time if I'm ever back in town. Decent cocktails but I remember thinking they could be stronger/more flavorful. read more
Unique asian fusion place! Got the yuzu kauliflower karaage, loco moco scotch egg, tikka tonkatsu don, and gumbo tteokbokki. They have a rotating menu minus a few that stay. The kauliflower karaage was sooo good and I usually don't like kauliflower. The staff was very welcoming and friendly! Would love to come back and try some new menu items read more
If not for Seattle Met magazine saying this is a top 100 restaurant, I am unlikely to have stepped into this unassuming restaurant/bar on Jackson Street that has half of their windows blackened. They look like they are avoiding attention. For good reason, they have more than plenty of business! While their menu is modest, every dish we ordered is superbly executed - sumptuous and thoughtfully presented. Reservations are highly recommended. The place has sufficient tables, but they have many, many reservations. They were turning people away, especially those in groups more than two. The two of us waited for half an hour, and we were seated at the bar. Our server is a cool dude who was wearing a maid's outfit. Lost a bet? Do this every night? I didn't ask. Just let it be fun. The Food: Loco Moco Scotch-Egg, $25 - 5 Stars Menu: hamburger, egg, mac salad, rice This is hands down the most beautiful loco moco I have ever seen. Cutting it with a knife the cross-section shows the soft-boiled egg is perfectly centered with the giant ball of loco moco. Bravo! It is of course delicious, too. Furikake Salmon, $29 - 4.5 Stars Menu: king salmon, Best Food's mayo, black garlic molasses, mushy edamame Full disclosure that I asked if the mayo can be omitted. I don't actually where it would have gone. The salmon is perfectly cooked. The mushy edamame made for an excellent protein filled side. This is a very healthy protein and omega-3 ladened dish. Flavor wise, this dish isn't as inventive as the others (did the mayo affect that?), but the dish is nonetheless a thing of beauty. Yuzu Kauliflower Karaage, $14 - 5 Stars Menu: yuzu gastrique, lemon pepper The yuzu flavor is the bomb!! Lightly breaded and impeccably flavored, these cauliflowers are yum! This dish must be one of their most popular dishes because they shouted "6 cauliflower left", and it wasn't even 7:30 yet. Aubergine Dengaku, $12 - 5 Stars Menu: compressed eggplant, misoyaki caramel, buldak sauce, wasabi pea furikake The description sounds like it could be a hot mess, but instead, it is inventively delicious. The idea of a compressed eggplant made it less mushy, which I like a lot. There is a firmness to the dish that makes it almost meaty. Again, yum! read more
Came here a little after 9pm on a Friday night and got seated immediately. They were playing Soul Eater and Godzilla on different TVs around the restaurant so for any of you anime lovers like me, this is the spot for you haha They stopped serving food at 9:15 but luckily they let us order when we got a table. We ordered the salmon ochazuke and the scotch egg loco moco. The salmon was super soft and tender and with the broth and rice - it was a very home style cozy dish. The loco mochi was reallyyy good though - I've been craving Hawaiian food ever since I went for vacation a couple weeks ago and it definitely hit the spot! The rich gravy with the juicy meat and the yolk egg inside with the luscious Mac and rice mmm I'm getting hungry thinking about it haha! Overall the food was super good, but the only con was that it is on the pricier side. I didn't get a chance to try the drinks but next time! read more
I had high hopes for this spot because of all the raving reviews but it was just ok for us. Came with my husband on a rainy weekday night around 7pm. We were seated fairly quickly and service was friendly. The spot is really cool, maybe great to come with friends for drinks or happy hour. They had some anime playing on a tv screen and I like their restaurant logo. Parking on a weekday night wasn't too hard to find. We found street parking nearby. Their menu is on the smaller side. We ordered their creamy corn udon, katsu curry, and chicken wings to share. Portions were decent but the food took a really long time to come out that night. Maybe around 30-45 minutes. The wings weren't too great. The sauce was ok but the chicken wings were soggy for us. The udon wasn't too flavorful, it was heavy on the cream. The highlight for us was the Tikka tonkatsu curry. The curry was very tasty and overall was the best dish for us. Not sure if we would come back for the food but the atmosphere was pretty cool. read more
Pretty good, the katsu curry was a bit less disappointing is compared to the reviews, but I feel like it was a pretty filling portion, the salmon was very nice and tender, and I would say that it was unique, and I have never tried anything like it before. The yuzu cauliflower, however, was the star of the show! Definitely recommend, it was very unique, well cooked, and delicious! Prices were average and it is a nice restaurant/ ambience, so I would come back to try their other items! Furikake Salmon: 9/10 Tikka Masala Chicken Katsu: 6/10 Yuzu Cauliflower Karaage: 9/10 read more
Came here for restaurant week and the food was so yum! It was a great value for a 3 course meal ~$60? Each course had its own distinct personality and complex flavors. The carpaccio had a light citrusy taste that paired well with the radish on top. The wagyu bowl was well marinated with balanced textures from the tender meat, rice, sesame, and crunchy pepper on top. The mango tapioca pudding was the most amazing end to this lovely meal. I loved that it was warm, it felt like a homemade dessert :) I thought it was like an elevated version of mango sticky rice, with crispy bits put on top as well as mint leaves. The mint leaves surprisingly worked really well in it! It cut through the milky flavor and soft textures to add some refreshment. read more
I finally got the chance to come by here. I had been curious about this place for a minute since the white cat really grabbed my attention, lol. FYI, they're more of a Japanese/Korean/Asian Fusion Gastro Bar than a restaurant. Still a very cool spot and perfect for meeting new people or just trying some fun drinks and food. The bartenders and servers here were so sweet, inviting, and helpful. One of our bartenders gave us a whole historical background of the place and spent the time telling us a little bit of his backstory. Overall a welcoming environment, we're definitely going to be back, especially for that Musubi! read more
The menu items here were what drew me in to this spot and they did not disappoint. For a party of two, we definitely ordered more with our eyes, but everything just sounded so good that it was hard not to! We had the oysters, Seattle dog musubi, and loco moco scotch egg. The loco moco scotch egg was actually so filling that I had a good amount of leftovers. Looking forward to returning soon since service was friendly and attentive, and the food was tasty. I still need to try the oxtail risotto and tikka tonkatsu don! Highly recommend making reservations in advance, as the restaurant tends to get full pretty often. read more

The food here is heavily fusion. There are slight Japanese influences but most of the flavors I felt came from other cuisines. This led to a very creative dining experience which I throughly enjoyed and found very interesting. My friends and I ordered most of the main dishes and ended up sharing everything (we had a large party). The servers are very nice and at the end of our meal even brought out a small desert for me, as it was my birthday. I personally found the Yuzu kauliflower karaage super good. My favorite main was also the oxtail soup risotto, a super creamy and flavorful dish. read more
I really want to give this place 5 stars but I was expecting too much in terms of food. I've heard nothing but great things about this place, so I was expecting food to blow my mind. My friends and I chose this place for our little bi monthly friend date. They were already drunk by the time I met them up so of course we were loud as hell inside. Really appreciated how fun and understanding the staff were cus at one point I swear, all you could hear were my friends yelling. Seems like a great bunch of people that works here. We decided to just do family style so we could order and try more than 1 dish. We got 2 orders of oysters, 2 birri arancini, yuzu califlower karaage, steak salad, and a loco moco scotch egg. I really enjoyed the arancini anything fried and has a gravy tends to warm my heart a bit. Cauliflower karaage was great, had light yuzu flavor that I found really refreshing. Steak salad was a surprise to me. I didnt really pay attention to what our server was saying but I just assumed it was going to be a basic steak salad. It had a very light and refreshing flavor, reminded me a lot of Vietnamese steak salad ( just googled it and there is nuoc cham) so yeah makes a lot of sense. steak was kind of rare but overall it wad great with all the veggies and fresh herbs. The loco moco scotch eggs was delicious! Different take on the classic dish but it was done really well. I didnt get any eggs cus my friend took almost the entire thing haha but the meat was seasoned well and loveeed the mac salad that came with it. So yeah food was good but I was expecting to leave that place with a food coma I know their menu changes a lot so that's the hard part about wanting to try something you previously saw but over all it was a good time with my friends. read more

Creative fusion takes on classic dishes in a stylish space! Extensive drink menu. Had reservations on a Friday evening. Drinks: -Hot Boy Bummer ($13) - like a spicy old fashioned, reminiscent of fireball, a tad too sweet for my liking -Siesta ($13) Food: -Pig Head Katsu Misubi ($12) - Super tender and savoury on the inside, delightfully battered and fried. Perfectly cooked rice and good amount of sauce on top. -Nashville Kauli Karaage ($14) - Crunchy and great, but I wished they had tossed it more since the hot chili oil was all sitting at the bottom -PFF Cliff Point Petite Oysters ($18) - Small but solid oysters -Loco Moco Scotch Egg ($26) - This was an awesome fusion of a Scotch egg and Loco Moco (two comfort foods), I loved ever component. -Yuzu Scallops ($32) - Another well done fusion dish. The amalgamation of flavors was great. Everything was exciting and tasted great. Street parking in Capitol Hill. read more

Had this bookmarked since it opened and got baited by all the good reviews here. It was extremely overpriced mediocre Asian fusion. The tastes did not match the price remotely. Sakura-hi- 2/5 $14 this drink had a medicinal aftertaste (kinda like a Tylenol cherry flavor) Seattle dog musubi- 3/5 for $12 I expected it to be a little more tasty. Hamachi crudo- 4/5 $18, decent Beijing beef tendon- 2/5 $14 it was pretty much like Chinese takeout but only had a few slices of beef and it was way too caramelized. My friend described it like eating a caramel apple. Pea-sotto- 2/5 $24 for the price, this was quite boring Loco moco scotch egg- 2/5 $26 not worth. My friend said the meat tasted funny. It was just boring for me tbh. Piggy parm katsu sando- 4/5 $26 okay if you're going to order anything on the menu, I recommend this. But at the same time, I don't think this was worth $26 haha Wagyu don- 4/5 $33 I like that this was rare in the middle and not overcooked. Would not get it again though because I'd rather go somewhere that specialized in dons for that price. I wish I could say service was good but it was just okay, our water jug was not refilled even once LOL read more
Came in on Wednesday at 5:30. Please note your whole party has to be present before you can be seated. Their menu on YELP and what is current might not be the same since they have a rotating menu. We ordered the Pea Risotto and the Pork Tenderloin Katsu Curry dishes. I'm favoring the Pork Tenderloin more because it was fresh with the cabbage salad and flavorful curry. The breading was very good. Pea risotto, eh, not my favorite. I couldn't grasp the theme of the food since the name is Itsumono, there's Hawaiian dessert, pea risotto but had chili oil which made it Asian fusion and there's katsu curry. Asian fusion. The andagi donut balls were delicious with the matcha flavor and bits of strawberry. Drinks are decent/good. Jelly shots were interesting. Overall, good experience with great service. read more

You have to get the beef rib!!! Would rate it 9/10 perfect blend of savoriness with a hint of sweetness. Broccoli was blanched perfectly. I loved the creamy mash (don't know exactly what it was) but everything went so well together. Scallop risotto was creamy and rich! I loved it but sadly they only put two pieces Would recommend ordering everything early as the dishes do take a while to come out when they get a bit backed up read more
One of the first restaurants we tried when we moved to Seattle and it remains as one of our favorites! The food here is really good and unique - they change their menus seasonally, but yuzu cauliflower is a must - I don't even like cauliflowers! Their eggplant appetizer was also great. Can't go wrong with their loco moco scotch egg and tikka tonkatsu as entrees! We really liked the vibe here - service is always good and chill. Great place to drink and eat great food. Can't wait to return to try new things on their menu! read more

Can I fine with my teenager or does everyone need to be 21±?
I do not believe you have to be 21+ for the dining room, just to sit at the bar.
Are they open for dine in?
Yes, but they're closed until 5/24 for 'spring break'. Check their IG for hours.
