The Hit List: New Seattle Restaurants To Try Right Now
"This popular Japanese restaurant had a wait time of five hours when its first US location arrived in Bellevue—and the hype hasn’t died down. You may need a remarkable amount of patience to get a table, but it's well worth it. Inside the spa-like dining room, chatty groups dig into tendon sets and attentive waitstaff dart around with very official earpieces. Must-order dishes include huge bowls of silky katsu curry, creamy carbonara that rivals those from local Italian restaurants, and most importantly, the tempura on a bed of fluffy rice and drizzled in their dashi-forward "Kohkau sauce." Save room for dessert, particularly the sweet potato crème brûlée that we now lovingly dream about." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
