Came here after work on a Friday and the place was packed but we were able to get a table right away since another couple had just left. The table was quickly cleaned and as we sat down, our server introduced herself. I am so had with names. Boo! She was amazing!! We were seated at the very back of the restaurant. It was on the loud side. I had to speak louder for my son to hear me on his side of the table. Not at all a relaxing environment. I ordered hot green tea and my son had ordered sweet green tea. The hot tea is served by the cup for $1.00 and if you wanted a refill, you're charged another dollar. I had the salmon entree and my son had the chicken katsu entree. We also ordered the monster roll and the rainbow roll. The menu stated the entree comes with tempura and each entree received two sprigs of asparagus tempura with one ring of onion tempura. However, they didn't skimp on the rice. I'm not a big rice eater so I barely put a dent in mine. I was a bit disappointed with the portions compared to the price I paid. The monster roll looked OK and tasted OK. My son enjoyed everything but he's not a picky eater. The dishes didn't wow me. It's a bummer too as several colleagues recommend this place. This place is more of a fusion. I'm not a big fan of cream cheese in my sushi. Overall, I had just an OK experience with the food being mediocre but the service however was awesome!! I'm still bummed I couldn't remember her name. read more

Really quite the unfortunate visit tonight. Indeed, I'd honestly say it was the worst dining experience that I can recall. Ever. In my 50 years of life. Seriously. My wife and I ordered two (2) miso soups and an order of tempura shrimp to share. She had a Mountain roll and I had a Puyallup roll. The soup was salty. The $6.50 tempura appetizers were four (4) limp and undercooked shrimp that, from the very 1st bite, made you wonder if you really should continue or otherwise risk paying for it later. Know what I'm sayin'? My cooked long roll was a mush of rice surrounding a sliver of salmon. I get that the cream cheese and avocado may have melted or whatever, but the salmon being so tiny was straight up insulting. How tiny? The pink of the salmon was not even thicker than a "stack" of 5 pieces of printer paper. It was way less than a centimeter in my view. I'm thinking: "How did they even slice it that small...?" I ate a couple of pieces and then gave up. Yuck. My wife's roll got sent back the 1st time because they didn't leave off the masago as requested. The 2nd version was no better. My wife described the spicy crab on top as "disgusting." They use imitation crab and it was not the high quality variety. My wife took one bite and then just looked at me with despair: "I can't eat this." We told the server that we just wanted our check. She apologized (sincerely) but still charged me for the full--mostly uneaten--meal. No discounts. No nothing. Just handed me the card machine so I could indicate the amount of tip to leave. (Yep. You read that right). I always tip so I just took the 18% hit on a $40 bill for a meal that never was and a date night ruined. We will never go back to Trappers and I cannot recommend that anyone take their chances there in hopes of a better dining experience. It really was that bad. read more

So we came here yesterday afternoon and this place was great let me just start with the sushi chef with the beard, I should've got his name cause he was funny asfff maybe Katie can point him out so he gets credit, she was our server and she made sure we were taken care of the whole night, she was on top of everything and smiled the whole time so it's nice to see happy faces, thank you guys read more

Amazing sushi restaurant was cleaned atmosphere was amazing course it was a little weight there were large orders before us they do a lot of takeout but everything was fresh and tasted delicious read more

Trapper's sushi never disappoints. Yum Yum Yum. I've eaten at several different Trappers restaurants and they're very consistent.

Americanized sushi. Long rolls are just that...long. Could use more girth... Staff was super friendly and prompt. Over priced for what you get. Unless you do the all you can eat offer. read more

I've heard many good things about this restaurant so my husband and I decided to check it out. I ordered an asparagus roll and a puyallup roll which is salmon, cream cheese and avocado. The first roll was good. The rice had a hint of sweetness. The puyallup roll was a bit too creamy for my taste. My husband enjoyed his salmon nigiri but didn't really enjoy his crab roll. Will we come again? We'll give it another shot. Oh and for all you parents out there, kids eat free on Sundays with a purchase of an adult meal :) read more

I used to come here quite often when I lived in Covington. This was back when Trapper's was a much smaller establishment (not as many locations) and they really cared about their customers. This was around five or so years ago. The AYCE lunch was only $15.00 and their AYCE dinner was $17.95. Back then they also didn't have as many strict limitations on their AYCE menus and other specials as they do now. Nigiri was also included on their lunch menu. Now though, they have raised their prices so much and don't offer very many varieties on their lunch menu it doesn't seem worth it anymore. Their greed has really started to show through and their employees don't seem to enjoy what they are doing. I miss the old days of Trapper's. Unless I am in the area I probably won't be returning. read more

It's too much of a fushion. it's not authentic sushi. flavors are good though. service was adequate. it took 20 mins to get two pieces of ikura. $20 all you can eat sushi deal - you have to go early to get seating. seating is unlimited. the $20 deal only works at the bar area and not in the regular dining area. kind of sucks. I Love Sushi in Bellevue is much better. read more

This location is better than the one at Kent Station by a lot of miles. I think they have a good happy hour and deals. Well, the service was good and I liked the special but I think you deserve better. read more

We love Trappers, we find ourselves there often especially for the all-you-can-eat at the sushi bar. The rolls are tasty, ensure you get the trump! While I am a little surprised that their rating isn't higher, I can imagine it's because of the service, which has gone down hill a bit. read more

Why oh why doesn't this chain have a location in Seattle? I have been to Sushi Town in Bonney Lake (the original) as well as this location in Covington and I have NEVER been disappointed. I have to say I have skeptical when my Mom first mentioned having Sushi in Bonney Lake but I was wrong for sure. My go-to roll is the Bonney Lake roll which is covered in spicy crab (I think it's really imitation crab meat, but if you don't like it I'll eat my sock). Other yummy rolls to try: The Timmy and another one that I can't remember the name of but is covered in mini scallops. Heaven. It's just really cool to find another Sushi place like Wasabi Bistro in Belltown that offers rolls that are more imaginative than your classic spicy tuna and California that you can get anywhere. Trust me, give this place a try... also, the ambiance and decor leaves something to be desired in Bonney Lake, but the Covington location is MUCH nicer. Not as much of that strip-mall feel that is so favored throughout the South End. read more

Trapper's Sushi - What a feast! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Covington, Washington

First time at Trapper's and It sucks! We made a To-go order (3 rolls and 12 pieces of sashimi and nigiri) and Tip $20 on top of everything. The server told us to wait for 30 minutes and after that, they kept making us wait until we reached like 1 hour. The place was not super busy at the time, I saw a-lot of servers and cooks around but I notice other customers have to wait so long for their seats and food too. Never gonna come back here , first and also last time! read more

First time here. We were here on a Sunday for party of 7 for early dinnerish. Waited about 10 min before being seated which wasn't bad. Sunday's, kids eat free with a purchase of a drink, that was a plus. We got lucky that day, it was their first day trying out some new system of paying via mobile device. The waiter comes to your table and if you're paying with card they can swipe on spot, have you enter your email address for a copy of the receipt and call it good. Anyways, food wise: we got the kids chicken teriyaki and fried Mac n cheese. Was ok. Chicken seemed a bit dry but my son still ate it. Daughter didn't care for the Mac n cheese. So imagine tater tot exterior with Mac n cheese interior. Both hubby and I got a roll each and it wasn't bad. Wish I could remember the name. Sorry, not much help in that aspect. We'll be back, most likely on a Sunday. It saved us $15 the fact that kids ate free. read more

Far from none I'm literally stuffed to the gills. Sushi Chef / owner Jimmy made our experience exciteful answering all our questions and making rice rolls in a bowl for my wife.

I love the sushi at trappers. Always fresh. The service was a bit slow. But the food is delicious.

My friend and I came here for happy hour, which was a great deal. There were a few sushi rolls for only six bucks, as well as appetizers for three bucks and well drinks for $3.50. Since we came here around 5:15ish we were able to snag a table at the bar, which was nice because the entire space is small, especially the bar area. Our server was nice and would continually check in on us. As the night went on the entire place was packed, including the bar area, so she was busy tending to the bar area and making drinks. But even with all of that, she did a great job as our server. In fact, all of the staff here was nice and as they brought out our sushi they asked if we had any questions about our plates or menu. The hostesses also make sure to greet you as you walk in and leave. And the food came out very quickly - the kitchen was fully staffed and it was obvious that they anticipated a crowd. We never had to wait long for our food. Though the service was great, the food and drinks were okay. Since the well drinks are only $3.50 on happy hour my friend and I ordered that and the server asked if we wanted to make it a double for only two bucks more, which was an awesome deal, so we went for it. But when my vodka-soda came it did not taste like double vodka at all. There was barely any in there, so I mostly tasted watered down soda. I most likely will just get a beer next time, which is also on happy hour. For six bucks each I ordered the Puyallup, the Mt. Rainier and the Seahawk Rolls. It was plenty of food, and ended up not finishing half of it. The Puyallup was deep-fried shrimp tempura with avocado and cream cheese and it was good, yet filling. Because of the batter you'll want to order a lighter sushi, so the Seahawk, which is basically an eel and avocado roll worked well with it. I mostly filled up on those two rolls. They were both decent. The Mt. Rainier Roll had baked scallops on top of the tuna and yellowtail roll, and I wasn't a fan of it at all. The baked scallops just had a fishy texture to it and didn't care for how it tasted. There was definitely plenty of it, so I ended up mostly scraping it off and eating the roll without it. The sushi here isn't the best, as it really is just a-o-k. The cut of the slices of the rolls was uneven and all of my rolls had uneven amounts of fish, compared to the other toppings. Trapper's isn't bad for sushi, but it's far from being the best or something I'd crave. I'm glad we came for the happy hour deal, which apparently the locals know about it, too, because as we left there were people waiting in the lobby to get seated as every table was filled. Also, the floor was super slippery! I had boots on, so thought it must be the heel from my boots to the floor that was so slippery, but my friend had gym shoes on and also thought she was gonna slip and fall. We were slowly walking to the restroom, so that we wouldn't slip! And doing so, I noticed how messy the floors were. There were a ton of scraps, crumbs, food on the floor. Overall, this place has great service and great prices, but will only come back when there's a deal/special as the food and drinks aren't the best. read more

the food at trappers is amazing every time no doubt. but Courtney is the best server and we are lucky when we get her! she makes the already awesome experience even better with her very fun energy and excellent service read more

The most disgusting open display of food handling I have ever seen. Does anyone in this place understand infection control! Hands go everywhere from the dirty rags to all the containers to rolling your sushi. Server scratching her nose and texting all while serving tables. This is the 2nd time I was completely grossed out at Trappers. Never again! read more

Sushi was great! The servers were terrible. The manager was completely out of touch with his employees. 4 girls standing at the register blabbing to each other. 3 servers to handle 4 tables and we couldn't service. Recommend take out only. Place was run like a bad joke. read more

Phenomenal value, and some of the better sushi in the area. We had great service, and the specials they have are awesome. Can't wait to come back when it opens back up! read more

The sushi is good... But the service was absolutely horrific. Waitress treated us like a burden the entire time, and to top it off they charged us a $6 service charge for 2 people? That is absurd. I do not recommend eating here. read more

Came here today for the first time with hubby & my brother. Bro had been here twice before & we have been to their sister restaurant Sushi Town in Bonney Lake once before. Trappers has a better atmosphere than Sushi Town. Modern Decor with clean bathrooms. All the staff we interacted with were great! Hostesses/waitresses pretty & nice. Sushi chefs were friendly & accommodating & quick with keeping the rolls coming. Best rolls in our opinion are:Mountain, Rainbow, Bonney Lake, Trapper & Alaska. Sushi available in Nigiri form too. Seared Albacore fantastic! We live North of the U.W. and will definitely make the drive back down to Covington to go there again. read more

This is the best Sushi place hands down period. It's a bit expensive, but then again it's worth it. I always come here for the "All you can eat" Sushi. They make the sushi right in front of you so it's very fresh. There are so many rolls to choose from that it gets hard to pick sometimes. I can eat about 4 rolls max until my stomach blows up. I always try to eat more but it seems impossible for me. Most of the rolls are very good with the exception of a few rolls such as the Spider roll. I struggled to finish that thing. I remember ordering Spider rolls at other sushi places and it was awesome. I just don't know why Trapper can't make good Spider rolls. Everything else though, is excellent. Some of the rolls have way too much Mayo and if you're full, that will definitely get you sick. Every time I leave this place I end up hating food and sushi. However, the next day I start to crave it like crazy. This always happens. They have military discount here so just keep that in mind for some discount. I definitely recommend this place. For the 1-2 stars out there, you must be crazy! But then again, you can't please everybody and you're entitled to your own opinions. read more

First experience at a trappers location. The rice used in the rolls and nigiri were very mushy, the girl behind the bar must of been rolling them so tight to cram as much rice into the roll as possible. All the rolls we ordered had the density of a dying sun. Both the end pieces to my roll were pure rice in the center. After one roll my stomach felt like I swallowed a brick. Big deal breaker for me was the inside of one of my rolls was tempura, trying to chew this stuff was similar to gnawing on beef jerky. All I could think about while I was eating this was how long this tempura must of been sitting there to become that stale and when last year was it cooked. Another big one was the quality of the salmon, ordered a New York hand roll. Was handed a very unappetizing mushy handful of rice with a single piece of salmon in it with some mushed up avocado in it wrapped in seaweed. Salmon is my favorite fish, and when I think of eating salmon nigiri I think of a buttery texture that melts in your mouth. Not here at Trappers in Covington. The first bite into that hand roll the onr piece of salmon came out in one mangled piece and I really had to chew it to get it down. Was left with a handful of rice with some smeared avocado on it and a feeling that I was positive there was no way I didn't just eat a tapeworm or get food poisoning in some capacity After this I felt like I couldn't get out of the door any faster, just disgusted. Was with my girl, in all we had 2 rolls, a hand roll and a couple beers. $75 because they lock you into the all you can eat price at the start. Quality of the fish and ingredients was awful. Rice must be made with something that makes it heavy, possibly sugar? Dunno but anybody with half a brain could tell they overdo it on the rice on purpose to get you out of the door. Skill of the chef(cringe for me to use that word) was very lazy, rolls looked like garbage. Felt terrible the rest of the day. Avoid at all costs, I don't normally write reviews like most users that use yelp. This place was so bad I've been thinking about writing this review for days like if I didn't I'd be responsible for the next outbreak of the next new ruthless super virus read more

Normally I would give 5 stars but tonite they get a 1. 1.no Sapporo 2. She brought another beer in a bottle but never brought the glass we asked for. 3. 1 hour and still no food. 4. Waitress avoided us continually we have to corner her to get the check for the beer. We are in this Trapper's so much that the usual waitresses know what we like. So disappointing. read more

Their order pickup is a not functional. There is a line across the parking lot of people trying to pickup. There is now a second line forming to get refunds which is also not moving. An utter joke. read more

used to love it but past couple times my fam and i have gotten food poisoning from the place

We go out of our way to go to this Trapper's even though the Bonney lake one is closer. We get great service 90% of the time and have been coming to this particular one for 6+ years. I have never had a problem needing to alter or leave off items when ordering (we only eat at the sushi bar as we get the all-you-can-eat). They do have one of the if not the smallest sushi bar out of all the the other Trapper locations and there tends to be a wait, but we have found it is worth it read more

I love this place. Haven't been since COVID but was a regular before it all happened. Stop by if you're in the area and pick up some fresh sushi! read more

So me and my daughter Ate here after our Appointment. I was disappointed when we got our Sushi. I've eaten Sushi at Downtown Kent Station. But I must say it's nothing compare. The food we got looks like it was rush, and been sitting out for awhile and portion was not as big as usual. I have to say I don't think I'll be eating at this Trapper's anytime soon. The difference between two locations are like night and day. No complaints at the Downtown Kent Station Trappers. read more

The food is typically good but if you order it to go, it is never ready on time. Plan for 20-mins later at least. They do not know how to do the online estimated order correctly or the store doesn't care. read more

The sushi rolls are pretty good and they have a wide variety. This is their specialty. Ordered the Tempura Shrimp Vegetable dinner. Came with cucumber salad in ponzu sauce, was ok but woud have liked to see a mixture of lettuce and tomato. The Miso soup was a little waterery so flavor only had a slight miso flavor. The presentation of the dinner plate was on chopped cabbage. Would have like to see it on shredded cabbage and the chop just look like it was thrown on. The tempura was ok but served with teriyaki sauce. Mixup with the staff. The owner manager came over and appoligized and gave us free fried ice cream. Was ok but a little doughie. Fried ice cream is hard to make and serve without melting the ice cream. Glad we had a chance to meet one of the owner's whose Brother, Trapper, started the business. Would I go again, yes and try more rolls and other dinners. read more

Fours stars mainly because our food came out really slow while we see everyone else gets the same food we ordered! We ordered 3 rolls since its their Monday special (3 rolls for 25 bucks) which I think is a good deal for me and my boyfriend. We also ordered one miso soup to share and hot sake plus complimentary edamame to munch on. We we're trying to eat slowly since we're waiting for our sushi rolls to come and we're just so hungry we ended finishing all of it (including our drink) and our rolls still didn't come. I don't know what took so long for it to come but it took over 20 mins for 3 rolls to come since it's not a super packed night as people come and go when we got there. Our server is nice and attentive at least! read more

I come to Trapper's all the time but, today I had to write a review because of the awesome service we had. Trapper's was pretty busy and understaffed, for a Saturday at lunch time. They had one server for the floor and one for the bar. James W. was our server and he was super pleasant, very apologetic that he couldn't touch on our table more often, and made sure that our food was everything we wanted. His attitude made the experience much better than it would have been otherwise!! As always: the food was super bomb. I'll always be back for that Covington roll! read more

I love sushi and I needed to find a good place to get my sushi fix. I wanted to originally come here for the all you can eat sushi deal but the sushi bar was full so we ended up sitting at the table. I ended up getting another special or 2 rolls for 13.95 of the trapper and Timmy. They were pretty good but it wasn't anything special. We also ordered the Vader and the willis. I really enjoyed the Vader roll. I would probably come her again for the happy hour all you can eat sushi because it would be a great deal. The staff was really friendly and nice. read more

OK so when you're not from the area and you're #1 craving sushi and #2 you're just moments away from HANGRY ... you don't bother consulting Yelp, which I ALWAYS do, before you head into the closest sushi bar. We were quickly seated by a not overly warm hostess. Our waitress, Kasey, welcomed us and was super friendly and helpful. Here's the deal with sushi for my husband and I .... he wants all his fish cooked, think California roll, and I don't like spicy. Everything on this menu was spicy this or Sriracha that, what's a girl to do? I asked Kasey what she suggested and she said anything you want I can "un-spice" it for you! Perfect!! We decided on the Samantha Roll. Cooked fish and minus the spicy garlic sauce ... a perfect match for this wife and husband! So while our roll was being made I decided to look up the Yelp reviews and it stopped me. Three and a half stars?? Uh oh, what did we do? Hangry got the best of me and here we are and let's hope for the best! We'll let me tell you that I was super happy with our entire visit!! The service was great and the roll was scrumptious!!! Perhaps the length of time to get the roll was a bit long, it wasn't super busy and there were at least 4 or 5 chefs at the bar and it still took at least 20 minutes to get our roll but i find that normal at sushi bars. We'll certainly be back! read more
