One cashier only..... another staff preparing the order. Super super super slow service!! Overpriced food with low quality food. read more

Disgusting. The eggs are gooey, biscuit hard as a rock and potatoes cold. Complete waste of $6. I should have just taken the train to Starbucks in A. read more

Kobo - Most disgusting eggs I have ever had in my entire life. Tried one bite and literally had to spit it out. They are like goo. - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I really wish there were more food options in the S Terminal at SEATAC. I ended up at Kobo because the other lines were too long. For breakfast there was a spam, eggs and rice combo for $6.99 which seemed fair. It all tasted okay but I would've rather them make spam musubi instead. Not sure I'd come back for the premade airport sushi. read more

Not bad for airport food. And the price is definitely reasonable. The udon bowl literally consists of noodles, broth, the protein you ordered, and a few scallions. It is exactly as advertised with no frills. At least it was filling. The ginger teriyaki chicken wrap did not include any ginger or teriyaki. And when we asked for some dipping sauce, we got ranch. Probably should change the name to chicken wrap. Not the worst option during a layover. The udon is definitely the way to go. read more

Seattle Tacoma domestic airport has great options for food, the same cannot be said true for the International Airport. Once you cross over to the international gates, the options become lesser, & lesser. I found Kobo to be a decent option try & likes their Thai Sweet Chilli Combo, which comes with Rice, some sweet chilli sauce, veggies, choice of protein & a spring roll. Decent food at a decent price, especially when you have limited options. read more

This review is based on the Udon. First I was disappointed that the shrimps are small shrimps. But they do put a lot of them. The noodle itself is not bad. Big portion for 7.50. The broth is pleasant. This dish does its job to fill you up when there's nothing better around. read more

Kobo - Udon with shrimps - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is not an authentic at all. Wasn't expecting too much for an airport eatery. But it wasn't even close. The udon noodle is wrong. The soup tastes like hot water with soy sauce sprinkled with green onion. The service was cold and bad. We stood in front of the server like we were students who had done something wrong. read more

I was starving and unfortunately I was stuck in the terminal with the worsts food choices! I ordered an udon noodle and spicy crab roll. The rolls were pre-made lower grade then that of bel-air. And the cashier got my order wrong. I ordered a combo udon with shrimp and chicken, she marked me down for chicken udon. I wasn't even told that after you order and pay you have to take your receipt to the pick up line where they make it for you. The shrimps are the really small cocktail ones that were probably bought frozen. The udon noodles are 't even udon noodles. They're like thick pho noodles. And the broth was room temperature warm not even hot.... this is my last meal in seattle and it has been my worst this whole trip. Eat next door (seattles best coffee). read more

Airport sushi. There, that just about sums up this entire place in two words, but of course I can't get away with being so terse in a Yelp review. I could add a third word: overpriced. And also kind of not worth it. This restaurant happened to be on my way from the arriving airplane gates to the baggage claim, though. I had to stop to buy some food even though my travel was at the front of my mind at the time. Sorry if that's stating the obvious because pretty much everybody visits airports for reasons other than eating. I have to comment on my experience at this restaurant, though, so here goes. First of all, why is it $6.99 for eight salmon rolls? I can understand if they were served fresh on a plate, but these were prepared well in advance and are sitting in plastic trays. And is that cream cheese with the salmon? Ick. I also got a fruit and cheese pack for $5.25. Grapes, sliced apple, and cubes of cheese plus crackers. That is totally not worth the cost, but I couldn't afford to dawdle at the airport and had to hurry with my purchase. Just get your food from somewhere else if you can. read more

Kobo - Salmon roll ($6.99) and fruit & cheese pack ($5.25) - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Review for lunch: - ordered chicken and shrimp udon - as in other reviews, taste was bland. Definitely take the chili flakes to add some flavor! - however, it was a big filling bowl - $7.50 was with it (if you compare it to SFO airport prices) No other food vendor in the Seattle S Gates looked interesting. At least we saved some money by eating here instead of the sit down restaurant. Next time If we're in the S Gate Terminal: Eat at the places at the other terminal gates! Looked like there was more variety out there! read more

It all comes down to $10 for a hot dog next door or a rice bowl with chicken and veggies for your family. But glad at least the chicken is tender and the udon soup is piping hot! read more

An airport food Haiku: Chicken teriyaki, Reminds me of salty days. It is an airport. This place was not good. However, in concourse C there aren't too many quick options. Just be prepared for a sodium overload and avoid the veggies if you can. On the bright side, the rice was alright and my stomach survived. read more

It was very bland and waaay overpriced. Avoid. Had a breakfast bowl on white rice. I was expecting some kind of sauce or flavor, this had neither. read more

Easily one of the worst airport meals, heck, all around meals that I have had in awhile. The teriyaki tastes like ginger. The California Roll was just awful - hard rice, nasty surimi, and no flavor. The best bet is udon, but even here, the noodles are strangely roundish and way over cooked. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of choices in the South Terminal, so best bet is to fuel up at the Main Terminal before catching your flight. read more

By far the worst Sushi I have ever had. The rolls were nasty and the rice was rubber. They were at least two days old. I'll eat Taco Bell before I go here again. read more

The Filipinas behind the counter were sweet and friendly. The breakfast I had wasn't great, but I was happy to find a place that served rice and spam. What can I say...I'm from Hawaii! I tried the sausage gravy and biscuit which was a total fail. I'm positive it comes from a can and they just heat it up. I'll stick to just my spam instead. read more

For those travelers who are looking to eat Japanese food here, STOP and Turn around and go look for something else..... I'm Japanese and never had this bad food ever in my life... They serve something that is not even close to Japanese food... everything is not quite up to the standard, where food should not be served... Udon is just soggy and gross. Rolls aren't well made. Their daily special isn't any better. I don't even know how this place has been in business for so long, but don't waste your money here... Food is terrible and workers are unfriendly. Price is too expensive for the quality. I just want people to know that what you eat here is not Japanese food. read more

A big pile of salty chicken seemingly boiled but with grill marks sits in a window. Wet rice is dumped in a bowl with some welcome only slightly over-cooked vegetables, a gingery teriyaki sauce is squirted over it. I ask for some hot sauce and am wordless lot handed on small Sirracha packet. I don't bother asking for another. No one really looks at me. No words are said to me. It's food but there's no joy in this meal. read more

The worst sushi hands down. Worst than Walgreens. The rice looked like paste and you couldn't even recognize it was rice. Just some white blob of white substance. This place shouldn't even sell sushi. Poster child of poor sushi. And I haven't even mentioned how awful it looked too. read more

The worst bowl of udon I have ever had. The noodles: tasteless and barely cooked The tofu: tasteless and don't know if qualified as cooked The broth: reasonable, standard The staff was nice old ladies, but given that I've had some bad udon and this was the worst, and possibly one of the worst meals I've ever purchased I give one star. read more

Rice for crab roll was horrible. Like it was in the fridge for days.

Always come here before a flight for the miso soup and have never been disappointed. Service is always prompt and the soup is tasty. I'll be back. read more

Cheap teriyaki chicken bowls or udon at the airport? Sure, why not. Beats feeling gross on the plane from fast food. We've tried this place twice. The prices are affordable (really cheap for airport food) and the serving sizes are decent. The food is just fine...the rice bowls are WAY better than the too soft udon though. I don't recommend the tofu- funky consistency. read more

Good enough, healthy, not expensive Pretty healthy, a little bit salty food. Tasty soup. Not a lot of oil, and I think pretty good ingredients, which is nice. read more

I gave up at seafood joint across I hit the long line of Kobo. It's hybrid of pan Asian Japanese all mixed. Sushi had very hard rice sign that it was made a while ago. Fish and scallion in it were very fresh, so that balanced out somewhat. Price is outrageous for what it is but this is left coast airport, nothin is cheap. But for fresh fish this joint was notable. read more

Despite the bad reviews I decided to try this place. I tryed the udon combo. Not much flavor, a bit boring but not as bad as I expected. I asked for sriracha sauce but was told to take it off a table from the restaurant across the court. They did give me some crushed red peppers that helped a little.. The sushi didn't look to good so I did not try it. read more

Pretty conventional, substandard airport food that feels and tastes unhealthy and makes you regret not eating before heading to the airport. I had the Thai Chili Combo for $7.50 ($8.21 with taxes). It had soggy rice, what tasted like frozen vegetables smothered in a greasy sauce, frozen chicken strips in the same sauce (clearly no marination--the taste was all exterior to the chicken), a greasy/soggy eggroll and a cup of miso soup. read more

The rumors are true! This place sucks! After a good experience at dungeness bay seafood next door last time, I decided not to double check yelp when I couldn't ignore my udon cravings anymore. My fault. Got the chicken shrimp udon. Not enough udon, chicken, or baby shrimp to fill me up...and this was after I had already had the eggroll. If you like broth, there's plenty of it. Ratio-wise, very off. Value-wise, very poor. Satisfaction of udon cravings, incomplete. As I mentioned, I also got the 99 cent pork and veggie eggroll side. That was good. If I ever end up coming back here, I'll try the chicken terriaki rice bowl (which comes with veggies too!) and get a couple egg rolls. read more

It's been a while since I ate here but the memory of this restaurant still haunts me. I ordered an udon with tofu, and it was not good. All the food sat in high school cafeteria style vats under a hot light. The vegetables were clearly not fresh and the soup base that they used for the udon was extremely salty. If you have a flight here and have a bit of time, go to a different concourse to get your food. read more

The food tasted good. The service was quick and friendly. The prices were decent for the items and we enjoyed it. read more

Not many quick food options nearby, so gave it a try. Not so good - sushi looked like the grocery store variety, so went with the Chinese Chicken salad. Just some iceberg lettuce with some flavorless chicken, a few canned mandarin orange slices and dry chow mein noodles. Just a bit of sustenance to last us to our next destination. read more

The worst udon I had ever !!!! So terrible. The udon(which is regular noodle )there has been cooked before. Taste like it was there for several days. And they just put hot water onto it. They even do not reheat the udon. So bad, worst food I ever had in America!!! read more

This is one of those fast food restaurants in an airport you only go ton in a desperate situation and you can't handle junk snacks. I was on layover at about 10pm at night. Many flights were delayed for snow. One of the two older ladies who worked there was on break, so there was only one, pretty slow women working both the register and getting food. Nothing looked good, but I thought I would be safe with the special, teriyaki rice bowl. All of their food sits in a cafeteria hot plate, which you have full view of. Everything looked like it's been sitting all day untouched. The "teriyakii" chicken looked like Fajita chicken at a similar Mexican restaurant. The lady filled a big container with old rice, tossed a two spoonfuls of the dry chicken on top, then squirted what claimed to me teriyaki sauce on top. I was quite disappointed because I was expecting something morethan 90% rice & 10% chicken. But in a pinch, it was eatable and filled my tummy read more

Worse chicken bowl ever! Poached chicken ontop of mooshy rice topped with cold teryaki sauce.

Terrible food. I feel shame to order such a terrible teriyaki chicken bowl here. The teriyaki sauce smelled like the detergent using in restroom. The only thing I could eat was the rice... You could hardly find good food here! Don't go! read more

Kobo - Looks ok but tastes like hell - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

DO NOT PROCEED. Ive had real Udon and this is soggy noodles and pepper seasoned chicken. No shitake mushrooms or green onion's or nothing. Just unecesarily over seasoned chicken, soggy noodles and a chile broth. NASTY, OILY, GROSS. The cashier woman / chef (Victoria) was rude also. Not that I'm surprised, if I was slinging that trash I wouldn't be happy either. read more

It's airport food... what can I say? Ordered shrimp udon and it filled the tummy. Nothing special and shrimp were microscopic. .. lol. I probably won't eat here on our next trip to Seattle. read more

Airport rice bowl, 7$ probably the best bang for your buck...not the best tasting of course but it will get you full before a flight! Like others said the service is really slow...and I would not try the sushi, it doesn't look good. read more

Sure it's at an airport and you're guaranteed its crappy quality...but no hot sauce for my udon noodles??? I wasn't expecting 5 star quality but at least have a hot sauce of some kind!! Taste was bland like water. Ugh...should have thrown $7.50 out the window instead. Would've been more fun. read more

Teriyaki chicken bowl is worse than a frozen microwavable alternative. I had to ask the lady behind the counter if she was working before she acknowledged me. Like the sloth DMV scene from zootopia she made me the most underwhelming, sad flacid teriyaki chicken bowl. I may have been better off filling my stomach with cardboard to stave off the in flight hunger. 2 stars because I didnt have to break the bank to eat at this famously terrible place. About $7. read more
