My wife and I came to this cute little place on a quiet Saturday afternoon in Puyallup. The…read moreJapanese proprietor welcomed us warmly and we sat down to enjoy sushi. Or I should say, my wife had sushi. We go to sushi restaurants frequently but I never developed a taste for raw fish. So I'm always looking for non sushi items. I was pleasantly surprised. Not only did they have a full sushi array, they had yakisoba and teriyaki and many other cooked Japanese foods. We both really liked the food. It was not expensive as sushi goes and very very fresh.

My boyfriend and I have been here twice for lunch. Once last year and just recently. They have…read moreincreased their lunch prices since then so just be aware that the menus I posted last year are not the same as this current year. I had gotten their bento lunch special last year and was very happy with the amount of food but did not receive miso soup. They raised this price by $5 and I couldn't really justify that so I decided to get something else. My boyfriend got their sushi roll lunch special last time and in our recent visit and was happy with his choices. I got the sushi rolls lunch specials this time and I wished the rolls had more rice on them as there spots that had no rice at all or it would just come apart. For our rolls, we have tried their Philly roll, shrimp tempura roll, Lion King Roll, and spicy Bay roll. The sushi here is just your average sushi spot. It doesn't really differentiate itself from other places. For example, the spicy bay roll that I got just had a line of sriracha sauce and I was hoping for their own spicy sauce to top it off. The teriyaki was good from what I remembered but again, nothing to really differentiate it from other nearby locations. The service is friendly but they never come back to check on you or refill waters. Even when we were finished, the waitress was watching TV and must have got engrossed in it that she forgot we were there as no take out orders or other customers came in while we were there. They do have a large TV playing sports but no music and the TV was rather quiet. The space is nice but it just felt very dark but we sat next to a window so I could take nice pictures. I think this will be our last visit as there are other locations offer a better dining experience with better service and ambiance.

Our last outing was not too great. So we got in at 6pm and sat in the bar. It's perfect for…read moresnacking on Sushi. It was BOGO so we were ready to chow down or ガンガン食べる in Japanese. So we orders and had a great meal. The Sushi Chef's were spot on tonight and the service in the bar was fantastic. Look this is a great place to get AYCE OR just settle in for a good meal. Service is good and the place is casual. Puyallup is their busiest store but no matter what they will take care of you. Yes they have off days but so do many other paces. Hit up Trapper's Puyallup!

Picking up the takeout was easy. There were easily recognizable signs on which entrance to use for…read morepick up. There are also ample parking. Street parking in the front and a large parking lot in the back. I ordered two rolls thinking that would be enough for a dinner for one but it was not. It looked impressive in the box as they're somewhat laid and layered. However, each piece was the width of the chopstick, very thin. The rice was also undercooked and crunchy. It was just not a great experience.

The sushi roll itself was delicious, and I really enjoyed the flavors. Unfortunately, the tempura…read moreshrimp inside the roll was a major disappointment. It was cold, chewy, and tasted like it had been sitting for hours before my purchase, possibly even leftover from the day before. It definitely did not have the freshness or texture I expected. I hope the restaurant can improve the quality and freshness of their tempura ingredients because the roll had a lot of potential.

I was impressed how the chief created Chirashizushi…read more When they served my Chirashi, it was in a lacquerware lunch box. I started to get excited what kind of Chirashi decoration I would see. When I opened the box, I was moved. I could tell how delicate the chief worked on this Chirashizushi. Love the size of sashimi that easy for me to pick up with rice. The freshness is perfect. I am not a foodie, I am just an old fashion Japanese food guest. I don't quite understand why sushi rice needs furikake, and why fukujinzuke was served together with Gari? However, it doesn't ruin the taste. Thanks chief for the beautiful presentation and delicate food. I want to come back again for Chirashizushi.

came here with my friend because she been wanting to go after someone recommended this place to…read moreher. It was pretty good! Appreciate that there is quite a bit of parking in this area and that there are many seating tables available. We were the only ones in this restaurant during the afternoon time on a weekday, so very quiet. I liked that the staff did not rush us to order and helped us with suggestions on what to get. This place is definitely known for its appetizers as I got this different type of dish with deep fried rice and its various toppings, haha ! if you are indecisive in what to order, get appetizers, as brought up by our waitress. such a good idea!

I had a minor issue with one of the orders but the team quickly rectified the issue. Although it was small, I genuinely appreciated the professionalism and accountability from the service team. Shio sushi is a unique addition to Sumner and definitely looking forward to visiting again! On a side note as a regular at a sushi joint in federal way, felt the setup of Shio was oddly familiar! Turns out some of their folks are now here which I'm glad to hear!

3.5 overall. We were saddened to see Oscar's gone, but…read moresurprised that a sushi spot took over, so we came on a Friday afternoon. The place is very beige and neutral, with comfy chairs. Cons: The floor still makes tables wobbly, which is super annoying and we had to stuff napkins to level it out. Our table was too small for the super gigantically long plates the rolls come in and nobody cleared our plates the entirety of our visit (see photo) so we had to use the ledge next to us to move them away and make room. Food seems to be fresh, good quality but the spicy tuna wasn't spicy at all. Flavors were okay, but nothing that would make me choose this place over Ari, for example. Pros: good presentation, fresh ingredients, flavors were mild but good. Chairs were great, tbh. Parking was ample. If you're local and want something different, then this place is definitely a solid choice.

What started as a backup plan on Father's Day ended up becoming our new favorite sushi spot!…read more We originally planned to eat at another sushi restaurant, but they told us they couldn't fit us in. Thankfully, that led us to discover this hidden gem that we probably never would have tried otherwise. We came with our toddler, and having high chairs available was a huge plus for us. The restaurant is on the smaller side, but honestly, that's part of its charm. It feels cozy, welcoming, and has really cool lighting that gives the place a great atmosphere. We started with the cucumber salad and gyoza. The cucumber salad was incredibly refreshing, and the gyoza was so good that our son absolutely DEVOURED it. For sushi, we ordered the Rock N Roll, Caterpillar Roll, Super Star Roll, and Dragon Roll. Every single roll was delicious. My personal favorite was the Super Star Roll--it was fresh, flavorful, and incredibly refreshing. The Rock N Roll was a close second with the perfect spicy kick. The service was quick, and our server was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. Honestly, I'm so glad the other restaurant turned us away because we ended up finding a place that we like even more. We'll definitely be back, and this has officially become our new go-to sushi spot!

Really wanted to like this place, so much so we went back the next weekend to give them another…read morechance. You know I love good sushi and seafood in general!! Space: The atmosphere is inviting. About 9 or 10 seats that mostly sit 4 at the most and 1 table for 6-7 near the front door. The first Saturday we were sat at the front, don't recommend the A/C blows downward right on your face. The following Saturday we were sat at the back side. The kitchen window is located here, so if you're sitting on the two seaters expect interruptions due to staff taking the plated orders from this window and moving the dish cart around here. Service: The ladies are nice. However, on both occasions they forgot items that came with the bento and the Omakase, and our beers. That's that, nothing too big or small on service. F O O D: They have all the general rolls, and they do have their own special called Onotoro (I think), a tuna roll, it was good and would fit into a "general rolls" category. They also have a special menu, features premium tuna cuts and house specials, see pics. Apps we had spicy edamame (sweet side), combo tempura, fried calamari (came with sweet and sour sauce instead of spicy mayo) - straight forward on taste for these. Mains: See pics! -Uni Hand Roll (Special menu) - They paired it w/ mint leaf I believe and it was off putting. This leaf was not listed on the menu but we're open to trying new styles and it did not hit! -Omakase - It doesn't come out tiered like the photo lol.. Seems like it would be a show stopper and good advertising if I had posted it. They also didn't explain the fish, I had to ask what it all was - Typically the chef or server explains Omakase. If you don't mind the chef choosing the nigiri, then this is a good starter compared to their individual nigiri pricing. -Chicken Katsu Bento - Chicken was crispy and juicy. Came with salad, gyoza, tempura, Cali roll, the forgotten miso soup -Poke Bowl (Special menu) - We didn't ask what type of fish since it was chef choice - It was red tuna and maybe white tuna (not premium), however this bowl was on the sweeter side of the palate. It wasn't our preference, it was a no for us. If you like sweet raw fish, this might be for you. -Uni Nigiri - For it being out of season, this was my favorite dish. Straight forward buttery goodness. -Yellow Tail Roll - At new sushi joints I always order basic rolls just incase **I really wanted to try the Tuna Tataki, it only comes with 3pcs for $18 but pictured on their menu is 6!?!?! Let me know about this one fellow eaters. I missed getting a pick of the Bento/Ramen menu Overall, it's A-OK for us. For two people on both occasions, we paid around $160. I anticipated paying more, even if we got less food because we understand premium sushi - This was not that place for us.

This place is damn good. Full stop…read more I'm so tired of sushi restaurants feeling like I've walked into the same spot wearing a different font. Dragon roll? Yep. Rainbow roll? Sure, love her. Fresh and delicious is table stakes at this point. What I'm actually looking for is creativity--something inventive, exciting, new. Not papier-mâché. Not arts and crafts. Just... something I haven't already eaten a hundred times. Sushi Konami absolutely gets it. The appetizers alone deserve their own standing ovation. The breaded oysters are fantastic, especially drizzled in the chili sauce on the side. And then there are the "monkey brains"- basically a large mushroom stuffed with cream cheese and crab, battered and fried into a tempura ball of joy. Does it sound like it could stop your heart after one bite? Possibly. Will you regret eating it? Absolutely not. Just bring a defibrillator and a positive attitude. The rolls are consistently unique and interesting, the kind where you read the description and think, Okay, I trust you. It honestly feels hard to go wrong here. And if you're more of a traditionalist, no worries, you can still get your dragon roll or rainbow roll and be perfectly happy. Highly recommended. Already looking forward to my next visit.

We ordered the spicy tuna roll, spicy salmon roll, and futo maki roll, and every single one was so yum. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and was perfectly complemented by a comforting, warm bowl of miso soup. Even the amazing pickled ginger on the side was an absolute standout! A special shoutout to the facilities: the bathrooms are incredibly serene and complete with high-tech Japanese toilets, adding such a thoughtful, elevated touch to the dining experience. To top it all off, the staff is genuinely the nicest ever. They made us feel completely welcome from the moment we walked in. I highly recommend checking this place out!
