"There are lots of high-quality sushi places around town, but this Pike Place spot is one of only a handful that offer lunch. The energetic dining area is a welcome break from conference rooms, between the EDM in the background and blowtorches lighting up king salmon on a salt block. Get some chilled sake, fill out the ordering card at your seat, and try not to get too distracted by Slack gossip between bites." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente, kayla sager riley
