Went in hoping for an authentic Japanese steakhouse experience but left disappointed. The vibe felt…read moremore like generic than the real deal, and the meat itself was mediocre. Nothing that really wowed me in terms of quality or flavor. The mashed potatoes felt like something from a cheap cruise ship dinner. Two ppl was over $200 and we didn't even order drinks. Service was genuinely good, though. Our server was attentive and friendly the whole time, so that part I can't complain about. But honestly, for the price, it doesn't compare to other steakhouses around Seattle. You can find better quality for the same money or less elsewhere. Good service alone isn't enough to make up for so-so food and weak value. Don't recommend overall.

My brother had talked about how great secret fort was so we decided to check it out on a Saturday…read morenight. He did make a reservation earlier in the day for 8:15 so when we got there, we got seated right away. We ordered a few things. We got the City Pop Roll and it was yummy, very fresh. We got the pork belly skewers (salt and tare), we loved them!!! The BBQ eel was delicious too. We loved the harami skewers too. The one we didn't care for was the tofu one. Overall, very delicious and good service. They did not have a few options we wanted (shrimp and wagyu) as they had ran out, so just fyi if you go later in the day.

I wanted to love this place because the vibes are so cute, but the sashimi gave my partner food…read morepoisoning. It was fishy not fresh. The yakitori was alright, not outstanding, but satisfying. They seemed understaffed, and it was hard getting their attention sometimes, but the wait wasn't too long. We enjoyed the salt best out of the three options, with tare being second. We would not order spicy again because we found it too vinegary. The best thing here is definitely the drinks. The yuzu sour and N/A nectar were both very good, and with the happy hour yakitori/sashimi deal very worth it if the sashimi wasn't so fishy :( We rated everything out of 16: Drinks were 14.25/16 Chicken Thigh Yakitori 12.75/16 Pork Belly 11/16 Shrimp Soy Butter 13.5/16 Bacon Rice Cake 11/16 Wagyu 12/16 Shiitake 11.2/16 Okonomiyaki 11.5/16 Sashimi 6/16

Friends ordered 2 other ramens. Flavor profiles were excellent but noodle doneness varied, taking off 1 star for potential inconsistency.

Also saw families and groups here, so the menu is broad enough where there is something for everyone!

A bit bland, heavy sesame oil taste but he had no complaints because since going gluten-free, he was grateful to be able to eat ramen again. We were a bit surprised to have to pay $2 extra to add a rather bland, cold egg. Why 2 stars? My other son and my husband were up all night going to the bathroom. They both ordered the beef ramen. It was a shame. Our first night last Sunday, visiting Seattle.

Great take out spot!…read more Exclusively bowls but lots of topping and flavor varieties. We had the unagidon and the tofu bowl. Both were tasty and fresh! Service was fast and friendly even though they were quite busy.

Such a solid spot!…read more Was craving poke but wasn't feeling any of the options nearby so I landed in minato instead. I FN love anything sushi-related and esp dig salmon, hamachi, and ahi (if the ahi is imported from like Japan or Hawaii bc yooo why does tuna gotta taste so different depending on where it's from haha). This place offers allll that and more including a standard chirashi bowl and different combos of donburi and similar bowls. They were honest w me when I asked where they got their ahi from (staff said Mexico or the Caribbean) so I copped their hamachi and salmon bowl. Oooo hoooo that shi was gas tho. My only complaint is I wish there was more bc 10 pieces aint enough for a fatty like me lol. But pretty good value! Sushi rice was also solid. All dat was around $20 plus t/t.

The service is consistently fantastic, and the staff is incredibly knowledgeable. If you're a fan of sake and shochu, you'll be in heaven they provide expert guidance on their selections, making it easy to discover something new and perfectly suited to your palate. The bar bites are equally impressive. While the entire menu is great, a few items are essential Sake Kasu Cheese Cod Liver rich and tasty and Takowasa just fantastic. Whether you are a seasoned sake enthusiast or just looking for high quality Japanese small plates, Hannyatou delivers a top-tier experience.

I'll preface with a few things: * They close at 10PM: We…read morecame towards the end of the night, *however* we had called in advance at 8:50PM, asking 1)) if they could take us if we arrived around 9:20PM & 2)) if we could have the Okonamiyaki. While they could've been speaking to menu technicality of simply having it on the menu, in a well-spirited reply they said they had it for us. And so we... * Took a $35 Lyft to zoom over and respect their time, which certainly contributed to the frustration but very much isn't where most of it derived from. We made it a few minutes before the time we said we'd be there. * The only reason this isn't one star is because we ordered skewers that were pretty decent. I do recommend those. * Make sure to have phone charge for the virtual menus The host was amazing!!! Incredible spirits for late night. The servers were pretty garbage! I say servers plural because dude and his lookalike double-teamed us and somehow both sucked. I say this as someone who's worked in the service industry for 3 years. The servers seemed actively dismayed & angry that we were at the restaurant (there were 2 bigger tables that ended up remaining before we left the place, mind you), which simply could've been easily mitigated by telling us at 8:50PM to come a different day if we wanted better service or something of the sort. After traveling far & wide for this freakin Okonamiyaki, with an offputting slight glare, the waiter told us that they didn't have it for the night. No reason provided: "we just don't have it"... mmmk buddy. At least lie to us and say that the kitchen doesn't have any more ingredients or something dude. Upon the 3 of us ordering what we got, each item was disappointing in its own right: * To be fair, my friend who ordered the Uni Udon was warned that it might be a little weird tasting, and it sure was. Don't recommend * The JFC Don pictured was about 90% rice according to my friend. Nothing more needed to say there. * Annd my Maguro Avocado Don... wow I was astonished at how much I disliked it. The rice was lukewarm. Nothing was mentioned about minced tuna on the menu so it looked like dog food in my bowl. I'm white... so what in the white people shit was in my bowl? Like...genuinely. I could make that 10x better at my house in half the time and I'm a fcking college student. Is seasoning no longer with us? Does anyone know what pepper or garlic are? Was astonished at how one can make a dish so terrible. I only ate it because I'm broke and can't afford other stuff. The dish looks as horrible as it tasted , and I made it look better than it was served to me I could go on. And lastly, the checks. Yknow, for guys that seemed so pissed for us being there, they were slow as hell with the checks. I'm kind af but a bitch when I'm fucked with (case in point here), so I really gave them my whole dentures, which was exponential in magnitude compared to what they gave us. Thank you Issian, for a terrible night. Citizens of the world, please don't waste your money here, I beg you.

We've been obsessed with this place since we first wandered in about a month ago. Like, we agreed…read morewe have to limit visits to only once a week, lol. Menu is broad but not in an overwhelming way. We're always pleasantly surprised when we get the check and it's much less than expected. Our favorites so far are the octopus skewer, bacon-wrapped quail egg skewer, tsukemono, negihama roll, and orange roll. But again, the menu has a nice variety of options for all different approaches and preferences, so we're excited for our next visits and to nail down our true favorites.

We were a little confused given that Google gave the hours as open until 9, and the sign on the door showed 8:45 - this should be written somewhere to avoid future confusion. The online ordering window was still open, so we ordered chirashi bowls to go. The food was prepared quickly and we sipped on some lemon water outside while waiting in the plastic chairs lined up alongside the building. The food was decent, particularly for the price, but next time I would prefer to eat in-person given that the fish had warmed considerably during the drive home.

This was a cute sushi spot I had never heard of before since I don't come to this neighborhood…read moreoften. It was quiet when I came in for an early dinner on a weekend evening. My friend and I ordered a few different rolls and shared them. I thought all the fish was very fresh! I liked the simple but elegant presentation as well. I would certainly come back here in the future if I was in the area!

The food was fine, but I left with real concerns about hygiene practices here…read more Around 6pm on a recent visit, I went to use the restroom (shared with a neighboring business) and found no soap at the sink. The dispenser was wet, suggesting it had recently been used and run out. I flagged this to an employee who was handling food at the time. They acknowledged me but didn't address it. I waited and brought it up again and was met with visible annoyance. Another staff member eventually mentioned that employees use a sink in the kitchen. I asked if I could use it. Shortly after, soap appeared in the bathroom with no acknowledgment or apology. What concerns me most is this: if the customer-facing restroom had no soap during the dinner rush, and the response to being asked about it was irritation rather than urgency, what does that say about how handwashing is handled behind the scenes? I'm not looking for perfection. I'm looking for basic food safety protocol to be taken seriously. I didn't see that here.

Food: I had one of the bento combos and it came with miso soup, a side salad, and a large dinner plate. The first thing that stood out to me was how much of everything came with the bento. On top of that, everything was very fresh and tasty. The dragon roll was also very good! Service/Ambiance: The staff here was very friendly. The restaurant isn't huge so I'd imagine it could get pretty packed during a lunch or dinner rush. There a few parking spots out front in the plaza, but also lots of street parking nearby. Price: For the quality and portions of the food, I would say this is a great value. The bento was around ~25 and the roll was ~18 which is pretty standard in 2026
