"The Santa Barbara location of this 17-course omakase speakeasy is where Megan Markle and Gwenyth Paltrow have casual lunches together, so when we say that this place is a see-or-be-seen spot, we mean it. And even though the only celebrity sighting you’ll likely have at the Seattle outpost is a plumbing company spokesperson or a certain financially conscious rapper, this place still manages to feel like an exclusive party. Ring the doorbell to get in, and you’ll be quickly greeted with a welcome cocktail that tastes like spa water. Inside is loud with blue and purple glowing lights that make it feel more like an EDM club than a 10-seat sushi counter. The nigiri is fun too, with wild toppings like shrimp head paste and olive oil, beet mustard and toasted quinoa, or corn pudding and sourdough breadcrumbs." - Aimee Rizzo, Kayla Sager Riley
